capable and willing workers who, in
turn, will furnish products OF the soil
to the community.
1T is Of prime importance that the

should bear the brunt OF the burden.
II he Is relieved Of his obligation to
be thoughtful industrious and thrifty
his manliness will be undermined.
The state, however, should make II as
easy as possible for the borrower by
arranging systems Of cooperation
among the borrowers themselves. II
is Of public benefit that the 1andless
men should be connected with the
