The farmer has been unable ta hire help since the war. He is working longer hours and yet-he is not able to keep up his land or his machinery as well as he did in the past. “He cannot ‘cut sueenene during dull periods, ay the 1 can. His overhead goes on just the same.” Dr. ‘Thompson believes that the inerease in tenant farming is the worst result of our neglect of the farmer. Tenant Farms Increase In 1880, 25 per cent of the na- tion’s farms were operated by tenant. farmers. Today, 40 per cert are so operated. “From a long-time viewpoint,” -he says, “the most important question before the nation is the sort of peo- ple it is going to huve on the farms. “Are we going to have peasant] farmers working under some one else with the profits going to another? Or are we going to have the enter- prising, thrifty farmer who owns his own land?” ‘Dr. Thompson points out that these questions concern all of us vitally. “And as time goes on,” he adds, “they will become more vital.” Babies for Evidence! 10 of Em! rt Gey s commenting the work.) eer and o of these sets have been stalled already pee hy satisfactory, accordii o Mr, in.
