sidered at the coming conventions Of
the National Won1an's Party and the
Congressional Union for Woman
Suffrage. These conventions. which
will take place in Washington, d. c.,

Discussing the problems that lie
before the suffragists today, Miss
Alice Paul, national chairman Of the
Congressional Union, said:

Washington, D. c., Feb. 20.-A re-
view OF the most significant steps that
have been taken in the last few years
to benefit the economic condition of
the farmer is contained in an article
by Carl Vrooman, assistant secretary
of agriculture, published in the forth
coming yearbook Of the department.
In this article Mr.. Vrooman points out
that for fifty years the u. s. depart
ment OF agriculture has been studying
how to increase production on the
farms, but thai it is only very recent
ly that stress has been laid on a study
OF the problem Of making that produc-
ton profitable. In the past, he says,
there has been a mistaken theory that
everybody is interested in increasing
agricultural production, but that no.
body but the farmer is interested in
making that production profitable.
That this theory has at last been
important legislation enacted in
the last few years. Prominent in
this legislation was the creation,
in 1913. Of the Office Of markets and
rural organization. The creation of
this office, says Mr.. Vrooman, was an
innovation of epoch making sig
nificance." This Office represents the
first attempt on the part of the gov
eminent to remedy through scientific
investigation the waste and extrava-
gance in our present methods of distri-
buting and disposing of farm products
Long before there was any official
recognition of tho need for this step
the farmers themselves realized the
necessity for 1t. The Grange move
ment, the Farmers Alliance move
ment, and the Populist movement
were all inspired by the conviction or
the part Of the producers that organi-
zation on their part was essential to
improvement in their economic condi-
ton. The assistant secretary points
out that while many of the specific
remedies demanded by the leaders OF
these movements were impracticable
their basic demands were just, and he
emphasizes the necessity OF applying
to these problems much the same
methods Of scientific study which have
made possible such extraordinary ad.
vances in the production Of crops.
In addition to the creation of the
Office Of markets and rural organiza-
ton, a number of laws have been
passed which are characterized as be-
ing Of immense economic importance
to the farmer. Perhaps the most i'm
portant one Of these is that financial
magma charta Of the farmer, the farm
loan act. This" declares the assist
ant secretary, els the first great finan-
cial measure ever passed by congress
primarily in the interest Of the farmer.
have no doubt that in the future 1t
will be strengthened by amendments
with regard to some of its minor de-
tails, as was the federal reserve bill,
but in all fairness it must be admitted
that this bill will do for the farmer
very much what the federal reserve
act is doing for the business man. 1t
will furnish the farmer with those
fundamental necessities that he has
been asking for. voting for. and pray
ing for, during the past half century"
