COMMISSION

The report Of the commission on
farm life describes with some fullness
the existing conditions of farm life
and points out the causes hat may
have led to it's present lack of or
ganization. 1t suggests methods for
the redirection of rural society, for
arresting the drift to the city, for
maintaining the natural rights of the
farmer and for the development of
the organized rural life hat will pro-
mote the prosperity of the whole ma.
ton.
Broadly speaking. agriculture in the
United States is prosperous and the
conditions in many Of the great farm
ing regions are improving. Country
homes in general are improving in
comfort. attractiveness and healthfui-
ness. Many institutions. organizations
and movements are actively contribut-
ing to the increasing welfare Of the
open country.
There has never been a time when
the American farmer was so well off
as he is today, when not only his
advantages he may secure are con-
sidered. There has been a complete
and fundamental change in our whole
economic system within the past cen
fury.
Yet it is true, Notwithstanding all
this progress as measured by histori-
cal standards. that agriculture is not
commercially as profitable as it is
entitled to be for the labor and enerey
that the farmer eXpends and risks
that he assumes. and that the social
conditions in the open country are
far short of their possibilities.
Rural society is lacking chiefly in
a knowledge on the part Of the farm
ers of the exact agricultural condi-
tons and possibilities of their regions.

Of soils with the injurious effect or

country life in the schools; in good

There is an absence of any ade.

by intemperance among workmcn; 4
lack OF institutions and incentives
that tie the labOring man to the soil:
the life OF the farm women IS bur
densome and narrow: there is need
OF adequate supervision Of public
health.
The farmer is handicapped by the
speculative holding of lands, mouopo-
listic control of streams and forests,
waste of our natural resources, and
by restraint OF trade.
Some OF the remedies for the con
ditions set forth lie with the national
government, some of them with the
states and communities in their cor
porate capacities, some with the volun-
tary organizations, and some with the
individuals acting alone.
All organized forces both in town
and country should understand that
there are country phases as well as
city phases of our civilization, and
that n phase needs help as much as
the other. All these agencies should
realize their responsibility to society,
