the Detleteu cOlultlOl CT Inc farmer,

DDS, the use Of improved machinery and
tools, the K. F. D., the telephone, ETC.,
a writer in the Atlantic Monthly says:
The farmer class, which we have grown
accustomed to consider the permanent
foundation O. our society, is showing de-
cided signs of impermanence.
The farmer is moving to town. 1t is
not simply farmer here and farmer
there, each because of reasons of his
own, who are leaving the land and en-
tering other occupations. The movement,
instead, is general in extent. In COM
paratively short time the typical farmer
of today, VINO tils the land that he owns.
with the help of his growing sons, will
be but national memory.
1t is an lndsputed fac. that agricul-
7tural production has not kept pace with
the growing demand, and that would
seem to assure steady gain and in
-creasing profit to the farmer. Statistics
show that cattle, sheep and swine are in
short supply, and that has more to do
with present high prices than the meat
trust. Unless present conditions i'm
prove the country at large will not be
producing enough for home consump-
tion, whereas in past years it has had a
surplus for export. The remedy pro-
posed by agricultural experts is to in
crease the average yield per acre by
more intensive cultivation OF the SOIL On
This point the writer IN the Atlantic
Monthly says:
This more intensive cultivation de-
mands an increasing number of laborers
on the land. The laborers, however, in.
stead of increasing in numbers are con.
tinuaily becoming fewer; farms, instead
of becoming smaller, as the theorists OF
rhe last generation predicted, are stead
lily becoming larger; the trend is neces.

A Commercial Danger

Owing to it's remoteness from inland districts
the conditions of our merchant marine seldom
receive the attention it deserves from business
men and manufacturers. Their thoughts are
constantly tied up with railways and railway
rates, but they seldom come to realize what a
tax they are paying needlessly to our lack OF
adequate service on the ocean. And this service
steadily grows more inadequate.
In 1885 American ships carried 1894, 865, TAB
of our foreign trade; foreign ships the same year
carried 81, 274 1884 ,309 or six times as much
This was. bad enough, but compare the record
with that for 1913. In the year just ending
American ships carried $378, 234 ,924, while for
eign ships carried no less than $3,375, 284, O22,
or nearly ten times as much. That is to say
that ships carried only 81 per cent of
our own trade Since 1885, foreign ships have
handled fifty billions of foreign commerce. If
we calculate that freight will average Is per
cent, that means that we have paid the foreign
ers since 1885 over seven and half billions for
getting our good to and from their markets.
The loss here of money properly belonging to
this country is not the most significant thing in
these figures, however,; the really significant
thing is that European nations are having a
steady opportunity to get their clutches on
American SOIL It is owing to our lack of ship
ping vessels that Germany and England have
gotten such hold on South America with the
result that papers controlled by foreign interests
there have carried permanent campaign to
prejudice the South Americans against the
United States.
And this condition enables European coun-
tries to make heavy investments in Central
America thing that means that after a certain
amount of their capital has been sunk there they
will feel they have right to interfere with af-
fairs on this side of the water.
Something will have to be done toward in
creasng the United States mercantile shipping
The Democrats promised effort along this line,
but seem loathe to undertake it. If they fail to
carry out this election pledge it will leave wide
loophole for some other party to get in, in 1916
By that time, there is doubt, the nation will
be thoroughly awakened to the urgency of the
marine situation.

The Republicans Confess

Roosevelt charged the Chicago Republican
convention that the nomination was stolen from
him by the Taft forces through packing the
house with southern delegates. These gentlemen
from Dixie come from Democratic districts and
are held to the party almost entirely through
liberal use of federal patronage. Mr.. Taft was
very careful to see that this patronage was used
in the right direction. At the time Mr.. Roose-
welt made his accusation, Republicans vigorously
denied that the convention could be packed with
southerners.
But now, after two years, these same Republi-
can brethren have made one great spectacular
confession of their sim They have cut off about
sixty delegates from the SOUTH an act which
tacitly acknowledges that the old basis of repre-
sentation wrong.
They have also given final quietus to the
talk of amalgamation with the Bull Moosers for
many of the fundamental principles of Progress
sivism were condemned by the delegates at the

station the full results of his awakening did not
come until 1.-THE Inside of the Cup" was written,
a stirring indictment of present day religious
conditions and church methods
The significant thing in this typical exper-
fence is the power Of the spirit of the times
which is so predomnantly social. Once men and
women felt themselves solitary and alone in the
universe and believed every man lived to him
self and died unto himself, but today we have
become fully conscious of our solidarity and know
that we must all sink rise together And it is
just the power and insistency of this zeitgeist
that fills us with most hopes. So long as it is
able to draw such men as Winston Churchill into
it's service the world is safe.

Winston Churchill

Those who have read Winston Churchls al
most epoch-making novel, '"The Inside of the
Cup have noted how far removed it is from his
first popularity known effort, Richard Carvel"
The latter is all romance and glamor and imagi-
nation; the former comes to close grip with these
problems that struggle in the very heart of
times.
When Churchill graduated from Annapolis,
he determined to seek employment with Her.
reschoff and become builder of yachts, but
while river trip to see the great designer of
fast boats, he seized with a sudden convic-
tion that he was called to become a writer With
out waiting to see the man he turned about and
started for home.
While at Annapolis he had become greatly
charmed with the few remaining houses of the
old colonial type and used to let his fancy people
them with gay cavaliers. Released now from the
grind of school and determined to write he
instinctively turned to these people of his fancy
and wrote them into Richard Carvel" which did
so much to awaken interest in an almost forgot

carelessly, eventuated in his being elected and

Owing to his long obsession with the far re-

of modern political conditions, but his first ex-

of just the way things are in political America
So striking to him were some of his findings
