BACK TO THE FARM
ONE WRITER SUGGESTS PREG-
NANT REASON FOR PRE-
VAILING PRICES

The high cost of living" is getting
to be joke in many of the papers.
But it's no joke to the man on a
small income.
The reasons assigned by different
paragraphers are many. The trusts
are blamed, cold storage plants are
blamed, hundred and one things are
blamed.
No doubt many, if not all, of these
different agencies have contributed

blamed, hundred and one things are
blamed.
No doubt many, if not all, of these
different agencies have contributed
each its share, but back of them all
there is, we believe, deeper rea-
son.
Consumption Increased
For many Years the consumers
have been increasing more rapidly
than the producers. BY natural in
crease, by immigration, there have
been many millions of people swelling
our population.
Production Relatively Less
For many years there has been a
steady stream of growing youths
leaving the farms and increasing the
army of non-producers in the cities.
For many years the eastern states
land now many of the western
states) have steadily failed to raise
as much per acre as formerly.
Herein, we aver, lies the reason
for continued high prices-viz: there
are more mouths to feed than there
is food to feed them; or, in other
words, the ancient law of Supply
and demand"
Under-production
True, this has been aggravated by
the action of trusts; cold storage en-
terprizes naturally increase scale of
living, and many other things, but
the real cause, the cause that must
be reached to effect permanent cure
is underproduction.
Remedy Suggested
How can this be remedied? All
the help possible should be secured
by investigation of those agencies
that are contributory.
All the efforts at boycotting- will,
perhaps, result in good-anyhow to
the boycotters.
All persuation possible should be
brought to bear upon the people to
return to the Simple life"
Nevertheless, the cure, to be per-
manent, most cover the following
points:
Back to the Farm
1. More land to be titled. This
by inducing immigrants to settle on
the lands, by offering cheap and at
fractions to migrating aliens, and es
pecially by bureaus meeting the in
coming immigrant and directing him
to available lands.
2. More farm boys must be in
duced to stay on the farms. BY CIV
ing them education at agricultural
colleges. BY making farms attrac-
tive with telephone, rural delivery
and automobiles.
3. Farming must be made attrac-
tive to other non-producers. By
making small holdings possible.
Residence in, town easy, and other
desirable advantages.
Better Farming
4. Every acre must be made to
produce twice as much as now. BY
modern methods of intensified farm
ing. These can be secured from the
agricultural colleges and depart
ments at Washington. By following
the advice of Secretary Wilson,, one
party in. Mississippi increased the
production of test acre of corn from
25 bushels one year to over 100
bushels the next.
In short, If there is an abundance
of food stuffs raised, the prices will
go down, and they cannot go
down, in the face of our over
whelming population, unless the in,
crease is q marked one.

PRISONER REMOVED
Taken From Bluefields Bluff to

Washington, D. c., July 11.--Several
consultations were held at the State
to-day on the possible ac-
tion of the United States In connection
with the removal of William Pittman.
the American engineer, from Bluefields
Bluffs to Manasua, Pittman had been
held for several weeks by the Madriz
forces as prisoner of war at the

Acting Secretary of State Wilson has

in the matter. Word may come from

that the Managua government was un-

VACATION OVER.

Roosevelt Will Plunge Into New

With Hughes on Bench, the

Leader OF Progressives.

Oyster Bay. N. Y, July l1.-Theo-
over. Tomorrow. he will turn from
wood chopping, hay making and ten
mis- playing, to dip into practical poll
tics once more. Governor Hughes is
to be here late tomorrow to spend
the night and part OF the next day at
Sycamore Hill.
Colonel Roosevelt spent a few hours
to- day wrestling with his correspond
ence. which continues to pour in in
such a steady stream that he does not
know when he will be able To catch
up. Then he played tennis for time.
There was great deal of specula-
ton here as to the significance OF the
visit of his close friend, William Loeb.
Jr, collector OF the port of New York,
to President Taft at Beverly to-day,
particularly as to Whether Colonel
Roosevelt knew in advance that tho
meeting was to take place, and
whether he Is to see Mr.. Loeb to learn
of his Beverly trip. Colonel Roose-
welt let these question go unanswered.
To-morrow's conference with Cover
nor Hughes is expected to be the
most important one which the colonel
has held since his return from Africa.
The nature of the conference already
has been outlined authoritatlyely along
broad lines. 1t is to be concerned
primarily with New York State poll
tics; with particular reference to the
formulation of plan for enacting
legislation OF the type Of the direct
nominations bill which the Governor
fought for in vain. This, generally
speaking. covers the ground of the
conference.
The bare outline of the subject mat
ter of the meeting, however. has fur
nished considerable material for dis
cussion. 1t Is pointed out that the
enactment of any such bill as the Cobb
direct nominations measure would
mean a task which would be worthy
of the prowess of the ex-President
since it would involve subjugation OF
the Republican organization which
opposed and defeated the bill, and a
campaign of greater ardor.
Since Colonel Roosevelt has thrown
himself into the thick of the fight
and since Governor Hughes has shown
no intention Of relinquishing his place
on the Supreme Court bench to run
again, the deduction Is made that
with the Governor out of 1t. the col
5onel will be compelled to conduct the
fight which he has made his own by
becoming In person the active leader
of the so-called Progressive Republi-
canism Of the State.
Whatever passes between the two
men, it is assumed that out of the
meeting will be horn definite. aG-
gressive policy of action.
