Ii is not 50 many years ago that an
American play or actor had no chance

for that reason American managers
were compelled TO import their melo-
dramatic material from the other side.
But times have changed Of late, and

that has borne an American trade
mark has been accorded hearty well

ID based nearly all the manufacturing
and It may be said nearly all the com.
merce.
While the farmer 10 . great wealth
producer and ID. one Of the most In.
dependent of American laborers.. he
has perhaps just reason DOR complaint
az to compensation received for his
efforts. While the results of his
labor has given employment to An
army Of millions Of workers, the
American farmer has also been sub
ject to the operations Of combina-
tions that directly oppose his best in.
terests. These are the great trusts
that control the marketing of what
the farms produce. . None will deny
but that distributing agencies are
necessary, but when these agencies
become oppressive and make extor.
tionate charges for the handling Of
the produce Of farms. they become In.
stttutions that are oppressive. But
the American farmer to a great extent
appears to be responsible for the
building up Of such combinations. In
his prosperity he has ignored simple
principles recognized in business and
which are important to him. Presi.
dent Mckinley in one of his addresses
made the statement that to locate the
factory near the farm means the
greatest economy and the highest
prices for farm produce; In other
words, the factory makes the home
market. For years farmers in the ag-
ricultural sections of the United
States have not alone contributed to.
ward the support Of the stock gam.
blers and the managers Of the trusts,
but have assisted In making possible
the building up of mammoth aggrega-
tions Of capital In great financial cen.
ters. and this capital has beep used in
the furtherance Of combinations that
have ,uade 1t possible to dictate to
the farmer what prices he must take
for all that he has to sell.
The farmers should understand that
money sent from districts to the large
cities means the concentration OF
wealth In these cities and greater
support for the trust builders. They
should also understand that their
farm values to a great extent depend
upon the activity and importance Of
the home town. Should the farmer re.
lieve himself Of the burden that is
placed upon him by the trusts and
combinations. he can do It by assist.
Ing to the greatest extent the build
ing up Of Industries In his own town.

Grafton OF every resident Of . rural
