"there's just about as much human
nature in one man as there is in an
Other-if not more" Environment,
opportunity and individual energy
regulate the extent to which this al
most universal character will come
to the surface.
Then MIR. Cook has overlooked the
real call to the Southern farmer.
The appeal has come in this crisis
not Ito feed the world and fight the
Germans, too" but for the South to
feed the South, a thing which it has
never done in the past. Mr.. Cook is
Il wise man. This fact Is evidenced
by his announcement that he Is pre-
pairing for food crops this year. EIe
reads the signs Alright, he works
Alright. and he Is going to come out
Alright. but he writes wrong, we
think. when he figures it out that
threc-fourths Of the population com

and object In life is to beat" the
farmer. That Is an old idea that.
thank God, Is gradually becoming
obsolete; and If we will just look
around us little more closely we
will find that where this idea has
been banished, where the farmer and
he other business people are at work
in harmony together, there is in evi-
lence the greatest amount Cf pros
rcrity. the least element Of unpleas-
ant friction. the fullest prosperity
and cOntentmont as a result OF recOg-
milton Of the fact that the farmer and
the town and city business man are
inter-deDendent-th the one cannot
get along well without the other, and
that their cooperation IS absolutely
| essential to tho best interests Of both.
Get your steering gear mended,
Brother Cook. and get back into the
middle Of the road! And never fear
for one moment that you will have
to litter the treasurers office with
peas, corn and potatoes this fall when
| taX-paying time comes. Grow food
crops. then more food crops, and
| then some more if you can, and save
everything You grow. The worlds
food supplies have been so far de-
| plctcd By this awful war in Europe
| that no farmer need worry greatly
for the next ten years what he pro-
dnccs if he just doesn't produce all
Of one thing, repeating the folly of
the South in the past in growing all
cotton and no provisions. That
would bankrupt any people If con-
timcd long enough. 1t is not the
Vaccinations of the "city dudes.
spectators and bigots" that have
brought the Southern farmer to the
Straights he has often found himself
in. 1t is rather the mercics Of God
that have thus far saved him from
the impending disaster that must in
evitably follow the schedule OF all
cotton and no food products.

y GOOD MAN GONE WRONG.

Our good friend. Jake Cook, of
Madison. ordinarily orthodox in his
religion. right in his politics. sound
In his reasoning. seems to have Slip
ped cog somewhere that has put his
steering gear t the bad. But his
machine Is still running, and good
man like our fric: 4 Cook will always
get back safely into the middle Of
the road lie has just gotten "off
the track We believe, temporarily.
Mr.. Cook Is, as we said in the
start. ordinarily to be found travelling
the right road in a very orderly and
correct manner; so, il we may Judge
by his letter. which appears else
where in this issue, we can but be-
licvc that something has gone wrong
with his steering gear. throwing him
temporarily out into the roadside
timber. broom-scdge and gullics, and
we ma him toundering around in an
cndcavor to right himself. In his
nrst struggles he figures it out that
the population OF the United States
is divided into two classes Of people
----0nc-fourth farmers and three
fonrthS "city dudes, spectators and
higots. And Of the latter he Opincs
that 4 majority ''ncvcr did a hard
days work or earned an honest dol
lar. And he figures ii all out that
this naughty thrcc-fourths have lust
hrrn lying around engaged in abso-
mtely nothing but taking bread ont
or the mouths or the farmers OF the
country. until now there are left on
the farms only Il Few gray-hcadcd
Ola men, who. he says. are being
asked to feed the world and fight
the Germans ut the same time" And,
4 lr.S IL l..
erhmrnt should step in now and reg
ulatc prices for all farm products.
We agree with Mr. Cook in this
last suggestion. and we believe that
our government is going to do it in
good time. 1t is going to say that
the farmer must and Shall be pro-
tectcd against the manipulation and
Sprcnlator-~in other words. that no
man or SCI OF men will be permitted
10 bnN up and hold Off the market the
products OF the farm, charging cXccS-
"lN" prriltS when all has been taken
from the regular channels Of trade.
no man should object to that, and
yet we notice that the heads Of some
Of the ia l'merS' organizations are in
Washington to-day protesting against
any action that will stop the steady
advance in the prices Of products OF
the farm. This is natural. The far
mer wants to get all he can for his
products. He wants to get his own
Just profits and the profits that have
heretofore gone to the 'spcculators,
city dudes and bigots" as we'll.
Therefore we conclude that all the
patriotism. all the loyalty, all the
honor is not to be found on the farms
and vested in the farmers. and that
all tho grasping, grinding and grab
DinG qualities are not confined to the
Getty dudes, spectators and bigots."
We h"Nc long held to the principle
advanced by David Harum that
