DR.. HUME SPEAKS

Following is an abstract Of an ad-
dress delivered by DR.. Hume of the
State College before the Minnesota
Field Crop and Corn Association at
Mankato this week:
If the American crop-producer con-
tinues long enough to ignore the fact
that land represents capital, he will
rapidly become an American peasant.
1t costs as much to raise the average
corn crop in the corn belt as the aver
age corn crop sells for. The same is
true also of the average crops of wheat
and oats. In fact, it seems to be an
economic law, that the average crop
producer receives only the current
rate Of wages with nothing left for
management. This is doubtless true
of the average producer in any line OF
work. The foregoing is one of the
most advanced ideas that has ever
been presented on the subject of bet.
ter crops and was given by DR.. A. N,
Hume of the State College on Tues.
day afternoon before the Minnesota
Field Crop and Corn Associations at
Mankato.
Professor Hume continued his idea
by stating that, "The Invest, most vital
proposition in the United States today
Is that it takes a business man to pro
duce crops. Crop production has be,
come a business from an economic
standpoint and no man will be able to
purchase land at current rates and
produce crops and make any more
than current wages" Big business
men are becoming aware Of the situa-
ton and are capitalizing the business
of crop producing. This tendency will
make 1t impossible in a few years for
the average farmer to compete with
big business in the raising Of crops,
because more and more land will be
brought by capital under it's control.
Capital will then hire more and more
labor to compete with the average
crop-producer.
1t is a vital question for the Ameri-
can farmer to solve, whether he will
become better than average, or failing
in the unequal battle he shall take his
place in the line Of hired labor. No
other country possesses so large a con-
tingent of independent farmer-citizens,
a body which is the strength of our
democracy. "The serious question be-
fore us today and from now on will be
whether this contingent Of our indie
pendent citizenship, the great body OF
crop producers in America, a be
preserved. The best thinkers in the
United States are farmers. The safest
and sanest people In the country are
crop-producers. Nevertheless IT Is the
somewhat amazing fact that 1t can De
truthfully written that this great Dody
of intelligent American citizens are
inert to the fact that a. an averase
they are not making money TINS 10
