THE CREAMERY AND FARMERS

We desire to express Or approval
OF the plan OF Mr.. Terrell, of Stafford
county, in a letter to this paper. sug-
gesting Observation-Disclosures OF a cream.
cry in fredericksburg. The execu-
ton of suck : plan would undoubt-
edly improve agricultural conditions
In this community. The only draw
back would be the immense and ex
acting amount of labor required to
operate dairy farms. coupled with
the scarcity and ineompetency Of
labor. We believe, however, that in
spite OF this, with she active cooper
alton OF the farmers. such a plan
would succeed
Mr.. Terrell to the contrary GOT
withstanding, we did not intend TO
place ourselves on record as occupy
ing pessimistic attitude as to the
ultimate aifiuence Of the farmers Of
this community; on she contrary. we
have great hope and faith in his final
emancipation from hard toll and
small reward. When this emancipa-
tion comes, however, it will not be
as a result OF the investigation of
any commission appointed by she
President or any action oi the Presi-
dent upon the report of such a com
mission, unless that action assumes
the form Of a reduction of the tariff
upon the necessaries OF life which
every farmer must buy. This would
afford some relief and intelligent hrs-
bsndry must do the rest. In the
meantime, the man without capital
or an incomefrom some other source
will have hard row to hoe on the
farm. IL he is able-bodied. he may
make a living, he may do more and
pay for a small home; bus he must
go without all or most of the little
luxuries which make life attractive
and which are essential in a measure
10 real happiness and pleasure
Nevertheless, in spite Of these draw
backs, farm life, even as laborer at
$i2 month and board, offers many
advantages over slum life in the
cities, large or small. where the con
dition is far more hopeless. and We
unhesitatingly advise anexodusf from
among this class TO the fields.
