TALKS ON FARMING

TION ON IMPORTANT TOPIC
Subject is "Natonal Wealth and the
Farm"-Dcplores the Tendency of
Farming Glass TO Move Toward
City-Fcars the Consequences-Ad-
vocates Remedies and Asks Bank
ers' Aid.

| delivered by James ]. Hill before
the American Bankers Convention,
Chicago, Tuesday, Sept. IA, 1909.)
The well-being of country, its po-
litical institutions, the direction of Its
Industrial progress and ultimately Of
popular genius itself depends inti-
mately upon the amount, distribution
and employment of its capital in the
shape of cash and credit. This is the
motive power of the national engine.
II always has been so. Commercial
ism" has been common and must be
common to every time and every race
above the barbaric level. Men are
always seeking to better their con-
dition. The increase of wealth Is an
outward and visible sign of an in
crease in intelligence and power. The
use made of that wealth will deter
mine largely the quality of the next
national era and the ideals that move
the new generation. The bankers of
a country, for centuries past, but more
completely now than ever before, rank
dulOuk lllt VI lIlc
tion's future. This gives to the de-
lberations of a body such as yours a
profound and far-reaching signlfl-
canoe.
Farms Are Main Reliance.
The public is now to some extent
awake to the relative value of the diff
ferent occupations as sources of
wealth. The farm is our main re-
lance. Every other activity depends
upon that. The farms of the country
are now adding annually over eight
billion dollars to the total of the as
sets; total which, unlike that of
manufacturing and other industries,
represents not value conferred by hu-
man labor upon some material al
ready existing, but value actually
created out of elemental things This
is the annual miracle of the earth:
quite as wonderful as If new planet
should appear in space each twelve
month. 1t Is the mother of every
other form of human industry. Our
tillable area may be made to support
millions OF people greatly multiplied
after the last bit Of mineral has been
extracted from the earth, and mans
ingenuity in fashioning tools and fab
RIGS has passed its limit. There is
no comparison, in volume, in value
and in relation to human enterprise
and the very continuance of human
life between the cultivation OF the
soil and any other occupation.

Agriculture is Declining.

So far the majority of people will
agree. What they fail to realize prac-
tically is the declining status of agri-
culture in this country. They are
misled by the statistics of farm values
and products. mounting annually by
great leaps, into thinking that this
absolute increase implies a relative
advance of this industry as compared
with others. Exactly the opposite is
the case. I refer not merely to the
quality and results of our tillage, con-
cerning which something may be said
little later on, but to the setting of
the human tide away from the culti-
waited field and toward the factory gate
or the city slum. This is something
whose consequences for evil are as
certain as If the aggregate deposits in
all the banks of the country were de-
creasing by a fixed percentage every
ten years, while their loans were in
creasing by another percentage just as
stable. You would know what cat
astrophe that assured by and by. 1t
means the same thing, in kind and
consequence, when the agricultural
population, the producers and deposit
ors in the great national treasury
of wealth, is declining year by year.
while the city population. which
thrives only by drawing drafts upon
the land and cannot live a year after
these cease TO be honored rises at Its
expense. Yet not only is such a cris.
Is approaching, but it is being hast
ened by legislative stimulation in IA
vor Of other industries while overlook
ing this.
Farmers Move to Cities.
In 1890 only about S.4 per cent of
the American people lived in towns.
At the time of the Civil War the per-
centage had risen to 16. In 1900 |
more than 81 per cent of our popu- |
lation were urban. The change is
portentous; and there is ho doubt that
the coming census will show it to have |

Situation is DepIorable.

After going into detalls ana pre-
sentlng further statistics in proof Of
this tendency he concluded this point
as follows:
The situation, then, sums itself up
thus: We have almost reached a
point, where, owing to increased pop
ulation without increased production
per acre, our home food supply will be
insufficient for our own needs; with
in ten years, possibly less, we are like
ly to become a wheat-importing ma
tion; the percentage Of the population
engaged in agriculture and the wheat
product per acre are both falling; at
the same time the cost of living is
raised everywhere by this relative
scarcity of bread, by artificial in
crease in the price of all manufacture
ed articles, and by habit Of extrava-
gance which has enlarged the view
IF both rich and poor of what are to
be considered the necessaries Of life.
These plain facts should disturb and
arouse not only the economic student
but the men who are most intimately
related with the wealth of the nation
and most concerned that it shall not
suffer loss or decrease.

Farmers Must Be Taught.

l
Speaking of the remedy for these
deplorable conditions he said:
| While much praise is due TO what
is now being done. and well done, by
the Agricultural Experiment Stations
and Colleges, by the Department OF
Agriculture and by farmers institutes
and other agencies, the job is too big
| for them. When we set out TO educate
the children in the public schools, we
do not establish one or two large ones
in each state and expect them to go
there. The farmer is almost as nu-
merous, as much in need of instruc-
ton, and is unable to leave home in
search of it or to absorb ii through
literary channels, as the child. The
education must be taken to him. If
all the graduates of all the Agricul-
tural Colleges were sent out as mis-
sionaries to the farm, there would not
be enough of them to do the work.
But it is the sort of work in which
every state should engage without de-
lay.
What has to be taught Is not ab-
struse. While high-grade farming
can furnish employment for the best
intelligence, instruction in few sim
pie subjects will enable the ordinary
farmer to double his product. He
needs to be taught how to prepare a
field properly for the seed; how to
select and where to get the seed that
will yield the best return; how TO
cultivate each crop; how to combine
stock raising with tillage; and how
tn rotate his crops and preserve unim-
paired the richness Of his soil. On his
own farm, with the material and the
object lesson before him, under IN
structions that come with public au-
thority and sanction, he will be a pu-
pill apt to learn. 1t is on a par with
the Importance of the public school.
We have not yet made a beginning;
but every interest and every other
item of proposed legislation might
well wait until we do.
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1909-09-15

proceeded in the last ten years with
accelerated speed. In spite Of the
warnings Of economists, the anchor
alton OF farm life, the opening of new
and attractive employment on the
land through the spread of irrigation
and the growth OF the fruit industry,
the encouragement Of public men
and the wider dissemination Of agri-
cultural education, the percentage Of
our population who work on the farm
constantly declines. II that proceeds
too far, it is as If dry-rot had eaten
through the timbers supporting some
great structure We should consider
now the change accomplished and that
impending.
