with any new ideas concerning his
own industry.
The reverse of all this is true in
America. The American farmer en-
tered upon a virgin continent in
more senses than one. 1t was as
free from social and political forms
as il was from industrial improve
ments. The settler built a society
as he reared his log cabin. THAT
society, as is always the case, was
determined by his industrial devel-
,opment and his physical surround
ings. The first of these was as di-
verse as human history, the latter
as varied as terrestrial geography.
He came from a multitude of differ
ing nations through period of four
centuries. However similar might
the traditions of those countries as
a whole, their customs and social
institutions were never sim ultaneous-
ly identical Each of them was in
a different stage of social develop
ment, and the immigrant brough,
the customs of the stage prevailing
at his departure. America fused
these marvelously varied and diverse
traditions and customs into an
amalgam different from any or al
of then and then cast them in q
mold of such an intricate and unique
a pattern that even yet no one has
been able to grasp its complete
plan, to say nothing of comprehend
ing all its details.
The conquest of the continent OF
America has been marked by a ser
les of social waves and until recent,
it has been possible to find simult
taneously all stages of society from
the hah-sav1ge hunter and scout tC
the highest developed and most con
eentrated capitalism on earth. Th,
continent on which this tremendous
ly complex social problem is being
worked out is as varied as the prob
lem. Ii is characteristic of the cit,
and especially of the city of capi
talism, that it levels all before it

6be Farmers
Real Condition

The American farmer is distinct
and peculiar social factor. No other
age has anything comparable to him.
No other nation has his counterpart.
His problems, his history and his
future evolution present compliea-
tions and relations unknown else
where. At the same time he is more
closely united to great world ques-
tions than any previous race of tiilers
OF the soil. He is part of the great
social development of his age to a
greater extent than the farmers of
any other nation, past OF present.
For these reasons the volumfnous
literature on the Agrarian Ones
ton" in European countries is of
little value 10 the student of Ameri-
can agricultural problems, save IN
relation to the most general phases
of the subject.
Any discussion of the subject in
Europe must, to a large extent, be
based upon the survivals and rem
nants of feudalism- The great es-
tates had their origin in this social
stage. Hundreds of details affect
ing the present relation of landlords
to their tenants have their origin in
the days of lord and serf. The
manner OF tilling the soil, the nature
of ownership, even the order of the
rotation of crops, are still more or
less affected by traditions of the
time when the land surrounding each
village was either assigned by lot to
the seTfs of the lord or the manor,

lures of communal administration
IN the matter of landed property too
peculiar and too closely resembling
those elsewhere considered in the
case of the historical village COM
munity, TO permit of any other sat
isfactory explanation than that of
inherited Saxon customs" Again
on p. 7S, Wherever in this common
Saxon land the student may care to
institute researches into the begin
ming of civic life, there he will find
if he digs deeply enough, the old
Saxon principle of land community
uniting men upon a common econ
Omic basis and around a common
center"
II simply means that there in New
England the same economic condi-
tions arose that in the time of Taci-
tus caused the formation of the iso-
lated communistic settlements desi-
gnated as the Mark. The New
England village, like that of the
early Germans, was a little clearing
in the midst of the forest. 1t was
surrounded by hostile Indians with
no strong central government to
preserve order and protect the set
tiers from its savage neighbors.
Fences were erected by common
labor around the entire village,
shutting il off from the rest of the
world. An independent owner
who would not fence against the
outward world, both giving and
taking the protection of neighboring
fields, must move out and must lie,

was the center of all social life, as
well as the geographical center ot

residents, without the consent o

by the village authorities.
