Co-Cperation for the Farmer.

Within the last thirty years the urban
population of the United States has IN
creased 25l per cent, or from only
about 5000, 900 to nearly $4,000, 900 In
number, while the rural population has
gained less than one-tbird as rapidly,
or about per cent. The American
Agriculturahst makes these figures the
text for comment upon the marvellous
growth OF our cities as compared with
that of the rural population, and
places no faith in the new doctrine
that cur modern civilization and urban
population can be trusted to insure the
nations permanency. The United
States must never ignore the greatest
and most enduring lessons OF history
that nations depend upon a thrifty yeo-
manTy.'
The way out, according to the Agri-
cultuTlSt, hes TO some extent IN perma-
nent financial cooperation conducted
on modification of the Rochdale sys-
TEN. ItCompares the enormous profits
made by English woTkingmen under
this form of cooperation with the pro-
posed plan of relieving American agrI-
culture that is based on government
mortgages of not only our farmers
freehold property, but even the very
produce of their land!"
The AgriculturIst concludes: "Let
unjust laws be- repealed. special prIvi-
leges abolished and equality insured
for all. Here IS the work for govern
ment. Then in the detail of our own
business let us help ourselves. Co
operation furnishes a means for the
sturdy American farmer to secure his
best estate through self-heip."
