WALLACE BL.AMES
RETIRED FARMERS
SAYS RURAL LIFE is LESS AT
TRAcTIVE BECAUSE THEY
LEAVE 1T.

Des Moines, Sept. 25-(Special.)- ,
Uncle Henry Wallace, one of the five
commissioners named by President
Roosevelt to better farm conditions
and make farm life more attractive
declares that the retired farmer is to
blame for many conditions that exist
in agricultural communities. If far-
mers did not move to town to educate
their children and turn their farms
over to renters, the problem of keep
ing young folks on the farm would
be solved Uncle Henry thinks. And
that is what he expects to assert
when the commission meets for the
first time in Philadelphia.
Instead Of staying in the country
aud building up the schools, the far
mer moves to town and lets the
schools retrograde," said Mr.. Wal
lace. The result is that rural
schools are In a deplorable condition.
In Iowa there are 81 that have only
three pupils each. The farmer turns
the attention of his children town
wards, the rural teachers are town
graduates and the rural schools be-
come anything but builder for bet
ter life.
There should be more society on
the farm. Not necessarily card clubs
and such as that, but society life
where the people meet to get ac-
quainted and to enjoy each others
society just as the men and women
do in the towns and cities. And the
school Is the great builder towards
that end. I would have the schools
teach the pleasanter side Of the far
mer's life. I know of teacher who
bought milk tester with her own
money and interested the children IN
cinated with it and they learned to
know the value of milk as shown by
the butter fat it contained.
my suggestion to the commission
is to so better the farm life that there
will be no incentive to move to town.
When the farmer grows too old for
the arduous labors, let him set aside
a few acres of his farm, keep a COW or
two, start experime. ting in the breed
ing of cattle and the experimental
work in securing the best corn obtain
able
Fully 40 per cent of our farmers
are renters. The retired farmer is
the man who rents to them. The re-
tired farmer from his station in town
where living is expensive, sees that
his land is becoming more valuable
every year. He gradually increases
the rental thesnext year on that ac-
count. The result is that he finds
himself unable to make the money
from his toll to which he thinks he
is entitled and he either deserts the
farm or goes westward in search of
cheap land
MIR. Wallace will propose to the COM
mission that it hear from the farmers
themselves and when the final meet
ing of the commission is held in
Omaha at the national corn show in
November, he wants the men to give
up an entire day to obtaining sugges-
tions from farmers upon how to make
farm life more attractive
