MADISON, Wis, Feb. 4-"Eve.y
village is, or should be, a trade cen
ter, a school center ard church cen
ter for a large farming district. Such
a community, meaning the village
and country considered together. can
not have complete social unity un-
less or until it has political unity
said C. J. Halpin, of the Wiscors n
Country Life Conference at a meet
ing of mayors Of cities, pres dents
of villages and farmers held here re
Gently.
Mr.. Galpin decr.ed the effort to
ape the cities and declared strongly
for keeping the farmers a thorough
country man.
One method of bringing about
blending of the interests of country
men and villagers was immediate Y
suggested by B. H. Hubbard of the
College of Agriculture of the Univer-
sity of Wisconsin-the formation of
comm ercial clubs, in which farmers
would have a membership equal to
that of the business man.
That villages do not always realize
their opportunity for community
leadership, was the opinion express
ed by L. W. Bridgman of Stanley,
/
who has found that enterprising mer-
chants can, and really do, success
fully compete with mail order and
catalogue houses in getting the ira e
of farmers living in the adjoin ng
territory.
