Commenting on the great rush of
more than 10000 people to secure the
less than $4,000 allotments of Indian
lands in Oklahoma, just opened to

ut is apparent from the eagerness with
which possessions in these public reser.

land in this country has not been graft.
fled. 1t is well, too, that it has not.
The drift of population toward the cities
is on the increase, although the rate OF
increase is not so large as it was ten
years ago. AS the agricultural sections
become more thickly settled farms
grow smaller and are given finer and
more varied cultivation. The results
of this concentration of effort, together
with the better social life that comes
from more and nearer neighbors, COM
blne to make farm life more attractive
than ever before. Its pleasing features
will increase and its Lardships will

wholesome sign. If the new reserya.

the indifference would have been sig.

Commenting on the main if not the
only point at issue in the great steel
strike, the editor of the Review of Re-
views, one of the fairest and most con-
sentative and influential of the great
periodicals. of the country, says:
''There is not involved on either side a
question of strict right or wrong, but
solely a question of what is wise and far
sighted in point of policy. In the long
run, the United States Steel Corporation
is going to deal with organized labor, or
il is not. The officials of the Amalga-
mated Association think that President
Schwab of the steel trust hopes and in
tends to reduce labor throughout all the
properties of the corporation to the status
Of the Carnegie company's works, where,
since the defeat of the Amalgamated AS
ISOLATION in the memorable Homestead
strike of 1892, labor organization has not
been permitted Mr.. Schwab's recent
testimony before the Industrial Commits
sion at Washington was not reassuring to
the unionists. After the struggle of 1892
it would not have been feasible to permit
unionism in some of the Carnegie mills
and to forbid it in others. The question
is: Would it be found permanently FEAST
bile fer the United States Corporation to
deal with trade-unlon year by year in
negotiation of wage-scales for the ma
jority OF its mills while sternly refusing
the men the right to organize in other
mills, or to be brought under the terms
of the general wage agreement"

THE URBAN POPULATION

In 1870 only three per cent of the
population of the United States lived
i'm cities of 5000. In 1910 this percent
age had only risen to five per cent and
in 1920 it was no larger, but since then
the drift has been steadily from coun-
try to city until the census of last June
shows more than thirty-seven per cent
of the people in cities of 1900 or more
and in the older states the percentage
is even greater. In Rhode Island,
Massachusetts, Connecticut, Pennsyl,
yania, New York, New Jersey and
Illinois more than half the people live
i'm towns and cities having more than
5000 population. If to these be added
the residents of small cities and large
villages, who are engaged in other than
agricultural pursuits, the majority is
very great. We are no longer nation
of farmers and yet we have more pro-
ductive land and more variety of agri-
culture than any other country and
our surplus of food products goes to
supply the worlds deficiency. Saying
nothing about our enormous exports,
every farmer has on an average
home market for twice as many pro-
ducts as he needs for his own family;
that is, for every unit of farm popula-
ton there is another to be fed from the
farms. This should make farming the
best business, and so it does, all things
considered.
