the subject muvl attrnJi"H.au gcuerIlly
speaking, il quite right in hls views rs To
what an institute ought 10 be.
But permit me, Mr. Editor, to criticize
the article just a little.
In the first place ] do not think the
errors in institute work can be charged
to the management of the Holt rOunty
institute. II has been the aim of the
county comm isG:rne:s and tie executive
cou nIttees for the last SIX or eight years
20 empluy the very best practical educa-
tors or school men 10 conduct tho iustI-
trtc. and think il may be truthfully
stated that the very best ideas in practi
cal school work have been illUs' rated hy
actual every day use during the SESSIONS
OF the institute.
If"G" will .st;erd the next session 81
the institute ] am satisfied that he Will
not be compelled TO listen To a tircicsS
talking machine. ] viii yUaraHtr" that
he will not have an 1T;n talked OF mt any

( But while the pouring in" or "stuif

MAKES are true and pertinent as applied
| TO school work. ha Wrst cnncede that

! First, there is the question ~ school

OF the teachers work because no necps.
! sity for government exists IN the instI-
tute. Again, suppose the instructor

ject TO beginners in mathematics, say
"Divisiuu" IN arithmetic. While he can III
a general way have an actual recitation,
! yet he has no class that needs the in

THE FARMER AND THE TARIFF,

Under "Protection" the Lions Share Goes
to the Manufacturer Under the Tariff of
1916 1t Went to the Farmer.
Taken as a whole the United States
has grown in wealth at an unexpected
rate. So far, so good, That is Just as
we should expect. And under low tariff
it was the agricultural interests that
no. merely protited most by the increase
in wealth, but prospercd at a rate that
distanced all Others. Under high tariffs
our crops have been as good, our growth
in wealth not so great proportionately,
to be sure, but still enormous in the az
gregate and rapid in rate; but this time
it is not the farmer that gets the lion $
share. His industry is more productive
than ever, but not to him He is taxed
to subsidizc the manufacturers And
thus is inaugurated a new sort of part
nership-the farmer produces the most
of the wealth and the manufacturer
gets most of it. The farmer need not
be shocked at this He ought not to BE-
surprised. That is just what the tariff
is for There is no malice about it.
The manufacturers simply want all
they can get They don't care where it
comes from.
The nearest estimate that can be made
OF the value of the agricultural wealth
of this country is based upon the vaua-
ton of farms, farm animals. farm i'm
PIGMENTS and machinery. The owner
ship OF the land, its improvements, the
ownership of all the stock upon tho
farm, the ownership Of all the tools and
machinery necessary to run it, consti-
tute the farmers capital. In 1850 the
farmers of this country owned 50, 067,-
S43,5SO of property. In 1S60--marll this
they had increased their aggregate
wealth from the sum named to nearly
eight billions, or, to be more exact, T.
$50, 1891 73, a little more than doubling
the original capital in ten years. and
showing by calculation net increase
OF about l0l per cent. In 1870 they
had increased from $3.50, 1913, O53
to $1l,l24,9js,747; not quite 40
per cent. In 1850 they increased from
sll,l2l,o5S,1i7 to $12, lOl, POI ,53S, or only
about per cent. Between 1850 and
1860 we had the lowest tariff and the
lowest rate of tax collections that we
have had in this country for the past
seventy years. Between 1870 and 1880
we have had the highest we ever had.
Between 1850 and 1860 the farmers of
the country more than doubled their
wealth, and between 1870 and 1880 they
accumulated but per cent. increase.
In 1850, after more than ten wears of
profound peace and unexampled pros
perlty, ten years of the largest accumu-
latlons OF wealth that New England has
ever seen, the wealth of her apricult
wrists fell off from s7O7, 600, 900 to S671,.
200, 1000, loss of over 1886, 900, 900; while
the same figures demonstrate the fact
that the largest relative Or percentage
gain in agricultural wealth was during
the low-tariff period between 1850 and
1850, john DEWITr w ,Dvrp
