The farmer's movement gets involved

The recently formed National Farmers Union (Jordbrukarnas Riksförbund) want a newspaper in Halland. is one of the traditional Provinces of Sweden ( landskap in Swedish on the western coast of Sweden. At the annual meeting, May 28, 1919, it was decided that the possibility of getting a mean of influencing the press in Halland should be investigated. Events 585 BC - A Solar eclipse occurs as predicted by Greek philosopher and scientist Thales, while Alyattes is battling Year 1919 ( MCMXIX) was a Common year starting on Wednesday (link will display the full calendar of the Gregorian calendar (or a Common As a consequence a company, owned by individuals within the farmer's movement, bought the paper. The goal was to make it a paper of the entire county.

In December 1919, the paper therefore changed its name to Hallands Nyheter (News of Halland). The paper had until then been a paper of the countryside of Falkenberg Municipality. It would take considerable time before that would to start to change. In the town Falkenbergs Tidning stil ruled.

A few years after the takeover, it became formally owned by the Farmers' League, a successor of the National Farmers Union. By becoming owned by the farmer's movement the paper not only got more money put into the company, it could also gain from the contact net of the movement to receive news.

The financial situation did however continue to be worrying. They did not succeed in widdening is distribution area. As of 1926 it had a circulation of 2,000. This lead the Farmer's League to sell the paper back to its CEO and former owner, Gustaf Adolf Janson.

The company saw a turn to the better when the printer was commissioned to print Halländska Lantmannatidningen the same year. Although small in size it had, in the 1940s, a circulation of 20,000, hence giving the company a much needed stable source of income.

Another, just as important, change occurred the same year. The paper established a new editorial office in the neighboring town of Varberg. Varberg is a city in the province of Halland on the Swedish west coast situated at. It would, after a tough start, grow. Of much importance for the growth was the local editor in chief, Axel E Blixt, a man with good connections with the farmer's movement. Pressure from the farmer's movement had been the deciding factor behind the expansion.

The Hallands Nyheter, as well as the farmer's movement, had been offered to buy one of the newspapers in the town, Norra Hallands Tidning Vestkusten.
