Why is a city? Can it be that enjoyment of crowds is-an instinct inherited from a day when man did not walk on his hind legs and traveled in packs as a necessary precaution against the giant Carnivora that sought him for lunch? Men hate one another, conspire ‘against one another, envy one anotl)er. Surely. it is not love that herds them together in cities—not love of one another. Love of money perhaps—of luxury, excitement, ease. Persons who have more money than is required for the purchase of necessities buy luxuries. g\hun- a man. 1§ ) in the dld country home on the lonely v dance of money brings an urgent demand for un- Remember!

The Yemand for luxuries - when he is only thirsty. s he is obsessed by strange visions and -4 brings factories for the production of luxuries, and the factories create a demand for 4abor. When the demand for luxuries is greater than usual the demand for laborers to produce luxuries becomes greater than usual. Unusual demand for laborers increases wages, and thus the manufacturers of unnecessary commodities draw into their employ men formerly engaged at a smaller wage in the production of necessities. Thus we have cities, and thus we have a wail of distress from farmers. } v The farm boy goes to town. Perhaps his sire goes also. Getting out of bed at fpur o'clock in’ the morning to milk and feed by the light of a smoky lantern and toiling until after sunset in order to get a living does not appeal to one who knows that he can move to town and earn—or at least get—one dollar an hour and work but eight hours in each twenty-four. The farm boy goes to town, and the acres he tilled grow rank with weeds. One engaged in the busines§ of manufacturing luxuries makes a greater profit than one engaged in the business of producing something to eat. American farms produce food enough for America and a great surplus for export. A surplus, whether of food or silk, means low prices. s The days of food surplus are drawing near an end. The farmer can no longer find laborers. He cannot till his fields alone. And this fat and luxury- loving country of ours, little-as it may realize the ‘ opportunity. . / fact, is about to make the acquaintance of an empty cupboard. 5 This condition does not spell disaster, but only &n urge to adjustment. People will eat. There will be sale for bread when luxuries are a drug on the market. When the day comes sthat food is hard to find, American appetites will bid against one another for a square meal.. Prices /of farm products will soar; men in-quest of gredter profit will quit the luxury-making factories and renew their acquaintance with the plow. handles, and food - will again become plentiful. * 2/ Men work in towns beécause town wages are higher. When the farmer outbids the manufacturer el e will get what labor he needs, He will pay'the price, and ghosé who eat will repay him and add a profit. i doubt that love of eats will assure the farmer a profit.—Saturday Evening Post. : Gttt POOR DOG.

A few thou- sand dollars invested in a series of films in the line of humane education_would bring larger re- turns, of ‘good than invested in anything else we know.
