The War and American Farmers

Will the European war, by causing
an increased demand for agricultural
products. benefit the farms of this
country? 1t is by no meara certain
that 1t will.
The savings Of the world in one year
may amount to $500,0O0,0OO or $6.-
O0O,O00.000; the war will destroy that
amount Of wealth in three or four
months. Consider the resulting scare
ity of capital throughout the world.
the consequent restriction of produc.
ton, the diminished supply of labor.
the increase In the rate of interest.
Farmers cannot escape the ELECTS OF
such economic disturbances.
Suppose that most farm products do
advance: does II follow that there will
be q real increase in profit TO the far
mer? Will farmers es a group lose
more than they gain on account of the
higher prices they must pay for eyery-
ching they buy? Farmers are consum-
ers as we'll as producers: they are
buyers as we'll as sellers, even Of ag-
ricultural products.
Suppose that wheat goes to $1.5O or
s2 n bnshel. How many farms IN one
hundred raise wheat? Only twenty
three. Consequently. seventy-seven
farmers must pay exorbitant prices
TO twenty-three farmers for one of
the principal articles Of food. Most
wheat farmers buy their flour from
the merchant; they will have to sur
render In that way some of the profit
that they may receive for unground
wheat. D.
No farm produces everything, or
nearly everything, that its owner
needs. Potatoes grow on only one-half
OF all the farms, and sweet potatoes
on, only eighteen per cent of them.
Cotton may go to fifteen or twenty
cents pound. but we must remember

II Is not even certain that there will
be an increased effective European de-
mand for our farm products, not ex-
ceDting wheat. Europe has suspended
credit payments, and will take only
gold; consequently it must pay gold.
AS rule. the nations at war are not
paying, and cannot pay I'M goods, and
the loan market Of this country has
been closed to them. Cotton manufac-
turing is paralyZed in the warning ma
tons, which have taken yearly about
two-thirds' OF our crop. Fruits have
been exported from the United States

Denefit the farmers OF the United
