(ymen now engaged in raising wheat . prices. AGRIGULTORAL WEST VIEWED BY BABSIN (Continued from First Page) with Jow prices for their products and high prices for labor and all they buy-—with taxes rapidly increasing— the growers of wheat and other ce-| reals have a real problem. Iunda- mentally this is, under present immi- gration and better rate conditions, a problem which must be golved through exporting cereals, But to Increase exports, our farmers must| compete with the low cost labor of Jurope, the Argentine and other ce- real growing countries, This means that' our only hope is in mass pro- duction. Wheat must be grown as automoblles are made—by the most efficient and intensive methods, In order to compete with the rest of the world in raising wheat, either the net productivity of our soll per acre must be increased 25 per cent or else | the labor cost must pe cut 256 per cent. If the latter s to be accom- plished, without reducing wages, it means that about 20 per cent of the| should either raise other products or elege become carpenters, bricklayers, plasterers and painters—in their own or nearhy towns. The future of such cities as Minneapolis, St. Paul, Kan-| sas City, Dulwth, Des Moines; Daven- | port Sloux City, Omaha, ’ropckn. Wichita and even St. Louis depends very largely upon a fearless recogni- tion and solution of this problem. It cannot be golved by the politicians or | by handing out gifts to the farmers. It can be solved onty by intelligent leadership with the uctive co-opera~ tion of the newspapers. Industries Improve. “Of course no ¢z should assume from these comments the idea that the Agricultural West is dependent upon wheat. The industries of this wonderful section of the United States are becoming more diversified every day.. fied industries are rapidly picking up. The lumbver indugtry of Minnesota, the dairying interests of this section, and the various other lines are im- proving. Packing, wnich was flat on its back a year ago, is turning over onto its side preparatory to getting up. All the live stock business looks hetter and the farmers are confi- dently looking forward to higher The improvement in the cop- Morecover, these diversi-| per industry and the great improve- ment in the iron and steel industry is helping the northern group of these states.

NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, FRIDAY, MARCH 9, 1928, In reprisal for sabotage in the occupied district, French troops haye seized Karlsruhe, one of the most im; cities in Germany.

This will help Missouri and certain other portions of that section. The people should be taught that ‘diversification’ applies not only to the different crops which a farmer plants; but to-the different lines which his boys enter. Let one or two of them continue in farming; but let one go into the building trades, another into small manufac- turing, a third into amerchandising, and the fourth into the ministry, medicine, banking or law. This does nuot mean that such boys should go to the industrial cities of the east, or even to the large cities of. the west. ~ Statistics celarly show that the best opportunities today are in the smaller cities and towns. Moreover, most boys are better off to remain in their home town than to go to large cities. One of the great troubles with boys today is that disease known better| as ‘Green Pasturitis'—which a ma- |90Vl the future can tell.

American teria medica tells us means that to one afflicted with this disease ‘The pasture farthest away always looks the greenest.’ Better Than Last Year, “8till, notwithstanding these obsta- cles, I found the great Agricultural West in far better condition than a year ago. Manufacturers and mer- chants are well justified in looking for increased sales in this ' section during 1923. The improvement has contributed to the increase in the ba- rometer of business for the entire country. The Babsonchart today stands at 3 per cent above normal compared with 18 per cent below normal a year ago. This is a great improvement and the task before all of us now is to keep business up to its present figures.

In the end—as the great Agricultural West goes, so goes the whole country. Hence, the problems of the west are the problems of all .| of us. As Jesus of Nazareth—the greatest economist who ever lived— taught his hearers: ‘The prosperity of each is dependent upon the pros- perity of all and we can help ‘our- selves only as we help one another.’” WANTED T0 EXTEND LIBRARY Methods of Bringing Library Service to Millions of People Now Without It, to Be Discussed. Hot Springs, Ark., March 9.— Methods of extending library service to the many millions of persons in this country who are now without it, will be one of the principal sub- jects to come before the meeting of the American Library as- soclation here next month, April 23 to 28. Club women, school superintend- ents, secretaries of chambers of commerce represeniatives of civic clubs, all prominent in their lines of | §& work, have been called to discuss this new work of extension. Chiet among these is Alvin M. Owsley, command- er of the American Legion. The le- glon is reported as“especially inter- ested in the work as the ex-service men remember the camp libraries maintained by the association during the war and jn numerous instances have reported service is not available in their home communities. WOMAN IS HONORED Mrs. Jeanctte Ryder, An Has Been Adopted by the City of | B Havana for Her Services. Havana, Cuba, March 9:—Mrs. Jeanette Ryder, an American, presi- denteof the Band of Mercy, has been adopted by the city of Havana in rec- ognition of her services during the last 20 years for the relief of chil- dren and defenseless animals. In ad- dition to making her a daughter of Havana the city council has present- ed Mrs. Ryder with a medal and cer- tificate of honor. Visiting Cuba as a tourist a genera- tion ago, Mrs. Ryder's sympathies were aroused by the treatment ac- corded dumb animals, and she de-; cided to dedicate her life and her small fortune to their benefit. Band of Mercy which she directs has developed to a point where it com- bines the only manifestations in Cuba of the Society for the Preventién of Cruelty to Animals, the juvenile courts and Santa Claus.
