While the foundation is not the building, and is of no manner of use except as it serves to hold up the building. it is still an absolutely essen tial prerequisite to the building.
 We've got to have that foundation before we can start the building.
 Alone and in itself mere waste of ground, as the basis for a useful building that foundation is perempto- rily required. It cannot be overlooked; i; 1t must not be omitted.
 Furthermore, it must be attended to first. before any other part of the building is put up.
 TO say that the farmer is wholly to neglect the money side of his business would be as absurd as to say that he should neglect the foundation for his new barn.
 He doesn't build his barn for the sake of the foundation, but lays the foundation for the sake of his future barn.
 Similarly, while money is not tle sole end of either real farming or real manly life. it is the absolutely essen tial foundation on which both farm ing and life must be built.

If you and want new barn, if our wiser farming makes such building necessary to store our increasing crops, then, as prudent people, we will lay a foundation on which to erect it. We know better than to set it on the sur- face, as may happen. without regard 10 the unevenness or instability of that surface. We dig down to hardpan or rock and lay up strong stone founda- tion walls Then we proceed to erect the superstructure.
 Money. is just the foundation and substructure on which real life is built What would we, think of the farmer who, not needing or intending new barns, should nevertheless cover his farm with trenches and foundation walls? We should class him as a de- fectfve if not a lunatic to turn his fer tile8a acres into a labyrinth of trenches and concreted foundation walls for buildings never to be built.
 Yet such conduct would be no whit less unreasonable than that of the farmer, or the business man, or the man in any walk of life, who makes the getting and hoarding of money chief end.
 You know how often I've talked along that line. and how thoroughly despise the whole rotten scheme of life which rules so widely today among so many thousands and tens of thousands who seem to see in money something more important than home and family and neighbors and country-or even God Himself.

Now let's drop our figure of speech and come down to the actual farm con- dition.
 The average farmer has got to get money. first of all. Else. not only will he. and his. family go to the 'poorhouss, but his farm will go to the bad.
 Not only is it relentlessly required that he get money if he hopes to sur vfve, it is further imperatively de- manded by all the laws of social jus tice that he receive adequate payment for his work and his pains "The la borer is worthy of his hire.''
 As a cold matter of fact the average Farmer does not get either adeouate wages for his work, not just compen- sation for his. products, nor money enough from any and all sources to make a stable foundation for either better farming or higher living
 Considering the nature of his work and the prime importance of his pro- duct, he is today the most inadequately paid laorer in the land, and his public service is the most scrimpingly com pensated-
Norwich bulletin., 1914-10-17

Shouldn't the farmer give some thought and time-shouldn't he give 9 good deal of thought and time shouldn't he give all the thought and time necessary to that foundation, first, before he begins to wrestle with studs and si1ls and rafters and siding boards?
Norwich bulletin., 1914-10-17

As, in our figure of speech, the foundation must come first. not as a. thing valuable in itself, but because of its exigent necessity for the useful and valuable thing to be founded upon It, so in farm life the getting of money must come first of all, not for the sake of the money, but for the sake
Norwich bulletin., 1914-10-17

In our highly eommendabIe dis praise of money as an end, and our equally commendabIe preaching against making it such. let us not lose sight of the two facts: First, that money is the absolutely indespensa- bfe means to such desirable ends as better farming and higher living; and. second. that the average farmer doesn't get enough of it to make it even an effective means

Written Specially for The Bulletin.
 '"rhe money side of farming is too greatly emphasized. The end of all things for the farmer is not that he should grow the most corn or wheat to the acre. More attention should be given to the home. the church, the school and to- community interests In rural lffe."-Secretary Houston of the Department of Agriculture.
 T think those of you who have done me the honor to read these random talks of mine will agree that I haze not been in the habit of unduly em- pi1asizing "the money side" of farm ing. Over and over again I have ar x,led and pleaded for a higher view of our honorable calling than that which classes it solely as a sordid scramble for money. To a true and wholesome man, no matter what his vocation, money is not only not "the end of all things" it is not even the chief end of anything. %t
 It is not an end at all. but simply a means.
 It is just the foundation on which to build something of more use and inn portance.
