Hugh ]. Hughes, editor Of Farm
Stock and Home speaking before, the
congress. asserted that the farmer must
pay more attention to the cost Of pro-
duction. Editor Hughes said in part:
1T is popular to cry for greater
production Of crops by the farmer as
though that were an unmixed blessing
to agriculture. want to point out
to you that this is not true. Take
the case of Cass county, North Dakota,
this year as an example. Due to the
corn propaganda preached by the agri-
cultural colleges and farm papers q
bumper crop of corn was planted and
brought to ripening. With what re.
suit? No adequate provision had been
made for it's use.
"Nor is this all. We in the cities
complain bitterly Of the high cost of
living. And 1t is high. Yet In the rot
ting cornfields of Cass county there
lies enough beef, reckoned at 10 cents
per pound, dressed weight, to have
given the eaters of meat 100000
worth Of that food, which they did
not get because we have not as yet
mastered the art of using what we
produce.
"The two great needs of the North
western farmer are money and credit.
Just as soon as we cut loose from the
notion that all we can raise is wheat
and max. and begin to farm so as to
play safe in the off-year, just so soon
will our credit strengthen-just so
soon will we begin to have money
with which to carry on business.
Now we can stop this drain only
in one way. and that is to quit grain
gambling and 60 to farming as bust
ness proposition. Quit dreaming about
the profits to be made by selling out,
and plan to make good living and a
good home here and now. Get out
from under the load of debt. It neces-
sary, sell off part of the farm in order
to get working capital. Talk things
over with your banker and your mer.
chant, and show them that you are
looking at farming from their stand
