Indications of the actual touble lie in the extent io which prices pr when crops good, and in the degree to w 1ich farmers find it arduous to ‘ir debts as rapidiy as prosperous en- terprisers. Until the ag- eirculturalists realize fully why many ct their associates have beer driv- en despairingly into hard corners, they will continue to invite the “cures” of politicians only to become critic:.. later of what- ever efforts are made in their behalf. Of late, nature has been trying ner best to draw their attention to the fact that any sort of farmins which necessitates a high cost-per unit of product cannot survive in the ab-|dema scence of fantastically high ¥ orld War prices, Each year the viride are blowing up huge dust clouds in those o!d short grass pasturage sections of the coun- try which were plowed up from 1915 to 1919 to satisfy a large war demand for wheat. As every ong knows, possibilities of soil erosion to a country conducting a war is never of great importance at the moment. The aim for the dura- tion of the conflict is to get an ace- quate supply of food at whatev«-" cost. But nov tnat the Soviet Govern- ment, for example, is contemplating | another war, desires munitions for | sagen security, and will starve her supplies of wheat at low prices to | get them, farmers trying to exist in the partiaily abandoned, high cost | dust bowl area in the United State: | are simply compelled to quit. Under such circumstances, reset- | tlement on other farm land is futile unless the people who are transferred can produce later at greatly reduced | costs. Like debt moratoriums, more credit, soil control, cash benefits and work ‘relief, resettlement is a mere sedative, offering no pe: nanent solu- | tion of the difficulties in American agriculture, Nor is the answer to be found in | the platform of either political party, which has promised the impossible —the protection of the American market for as other countries can and will sup- ply farm products cheaper. Unlike such things as automo- biles, farm products such : wheat, corn, and cotton are traded in a high- ly organized world market, and the prices thereof are extremely sensi- tive to changes in the relation be- | tween the existing, world supply and Mor wes it.I possible, say, for Russia to sell wheat in the Ch’ ago pit and actually to deliver the grain in Argentiua, agricultural tariffs are simply of no avail. Unless farmers,.then, can turn their attention to produci... new products which, havea, domestic demand, or can’ redli¢e ‘their: costs on the crops which they are now raising, they are bound to remain in the same rut and be duped continually with cures, based chiefly on plain hokum. in the words of Charles Kingsley, it is high time that farmers should “talk plain truth and Ic.ve bunkum for right honorables who keep their places theseby.” (Address questions to the author, care of this newspaper) LEGALS \STEAMER CEIBA y the American farmer. ; Plainly, this cannot be done so long |, daughter of Mr. es and children, expects to be E COUNTY magazines.
