the corn belt farmer gets into a state
of mind that grain raising is all that
pays, that stock raising is a fraud, a
delusion and a snare, he is in for flu
ture trouble-seas of ii. For the
causes that led to the slaughter of
live stock in America will operate In
Europe as we'll. Will the German

farmers fatten steers on American

French. viii not the sale of the i'm

How long do you think 1t would take
to restore the balance between grain
and live stock, II we increased the
grain area and got out of the stock
business. because, in u present state
of mind, grain pays the best?
We don't know when the war Will
end. 1t seems to us that the fire is
too big for the w~oodpile. The
savagely and brutality 1t is conducted.
the sooner will it be over. But we
think II is an ever gamble whether the
pig that is dropped in May, or the corn
that Is planted to feed 1t, will hit the
best market. The calf that is dropped
in May has about two chances to one.
the colt three. Therefore, don't go
out of the calf business, o colt
rearing, nor hog growing. You may
lose money on cattle and hogs this
year. The chances are that you will.
for you are losing II now; but this Is
no new thing. Old feeders have had
similar experiences before, and blamed
1t, of course, on the party then In
power.
We had a knock similar to this In
1898, and we rightly blamed 1t to the
packers. But these old feeders who
stuck to the business, even In h a
of serious losses have wen II all back

true of other things besides religion,
and among them stock raising, h a
'he that endureth to the end shall be

we will be caught both coming and go
ing: for when the causes for this ad-
vance in grain and slump In cattie
cease to operate, we may nno our
selves long on grain and short on live
stock, and will then have to pay long
price1 to those who had faith In the
calf, the colt and the pig. Well, as an
old friend in our boyhood used to say:
There's nothing in this world but

heads off, anyhow. It's corn and
wheat for me. I'd rather feed men
than hogs or cattle, anyhow.
This represents, in our Judgment,
the state of mind of a good many
farmers of the corn belt, and the
most prosperous farmers, too. So long
as this state of mind continues, the
markets will be crowded with hogs
and prices will remain low.
The cattle feeder is in a still worse
state of mind. At present prices of
corn, it will cost him Is cents to make
a pound of gain. AS ordinarily beef
cattle are selling not much above the
price of feeders last fall, he is strong
ly tempted to chuck the whole bust
ness. He may even say hard things
about the colleges and the agricultural
papers that have been urging him to
go into the live stock business. The re-
suit of this state of mind is seen in the
market reports. The packers are buy
ing and killing habitat steers that
ought to be fed. and therefore the
prices of this class are utterly demon
allied. Much of this thin stuff goes TO

can't have the pure satisfaction of
humping their heads together and CIV

1t is quite possible that the man
who dumps his hogs is doing the only
thing he car do now; for when hogs
are ready to go, they must be sold,
no matter what the price may be; 9TH
erwise they are kept at a loss. Cattle
may be kept a longer time. bat there
is a limit, ever to the holding of cat
tie. The farmer who is caught In this
shape is I'm for a loss, the only ques-
ton being how much?
But what of the future? The effect
of a state of mind doesn't cease h
the state of mind changes. Is 1t not
probable from all that we know OF hu-
man nature, that fewer pigs Will be
grown the next year, and until the wal
is over. and that all the corn and wheat
that can be, will be grown? is II not
a certainty that this war will be end
| ed some time, and may end before the
next corn crop is husked? Then what!
The warning nations would not longer
paw the prices for your corn or wheat

for the war, wheat would not have
been solo for much over half the price
at which Europe is buying 1t today. IL
would, in fact, have given us very
little profit. In a very short time

A big word that, which we are
throwing at you, says Wallace's Farm
er, discussing THE Psychology Of
Prices" We do that sometimes, be
cause, while we do not like long words,
learned men will use them, and we
want our folks, and especially our
young folks, to get acquainted with
them. Psychology deals with the
mind, just as physiology deals with the
body. Therefore psychology is a study
of the mind; psychological, a state of
mind.
LAS a man thinketh in his heart" SO
he buys and sells. But you say. what
has psychology or the state of the
farmers mind to do with the prices?
Are not prices governed by the supply
and demand, and occasionally by some
rescal who has wit enough, courage
enough and money enough to control
or corner the supply, and thus rob
those who must have the goods? Quite
true, but zone the less, the state of
mind of the producer has much to do
with increasing or diminishing the
supply, just as the state of mind of
the consumer has much to do with in
creasing or diminishing the demand
For instance, a very intelligent man
said to us the other day hat ever since
he had heard about the outbreak of
the foot and mouth disease he had
hesitated about ordering beefstake. We
have no doubt the limited demand for
beef and the present low prices of cat
tie are partly due to this state of mind
OF the consumer. The state of mind
of the producer is what concerns us
most just low. The war which is it
self the result of the state of mind
Of those who control the governments
of Europe, has created a worldwide
demand for wheat; and the price Of
fered for it in gold is the highest eve
known in the United States. The effect
OF this is to reduce for the time being
the price of live stock that is grown
and fatened on corn.
Let US now get at the present state
Of mind of the farmer who is feeding
hogs or cattle. He has watched prices
day by day. He has seen his profits
decrease with every slump; and his
only chance of coming out even, an
advancing price. He sees also corn ad-
vancing, whether he has to buy or
not.
He says to himself: The market
will give me 20 cents for corn. l have
not made more than eight pounds of
pork from a bushel of corn. Every
pound of gain costs me s IL cents;
and ! can't get more than 7 cents in
Chicago. / will stop this loss by sell
ing my hogs, and will sell my hogs in
stead. Kitchener says the war will
last three years. Therefore, l don't
care whether ! save my pig crop this
spring or not. They'll just eat their
