FARMERS AND PATRIOTISM

Durin." the hri"h. of the Liberty
'.N"n Bond camprrn ,ust closed
many rural communities subscribed
proportionately less than the people
of towns. The fact was claimed in
certain quarters to Shaw lack of pa
triotiSm on the part of farmers. We
deny the assertion and denounce the
ignorance of wilful misrepresentation
of those guilty tf the aspcrsion.
The fact has little real significance
and is easily explained by natural
causes. First, however, we insist that
in the present, and every past war in
which our country has been engaged,
the patriotism Of the American farm
er has been shining fact. The min
ute men of '76 were country bows.
1t was 4 farmer who left his plow
in the furrow and rode his plow-
horse to Bunker Hill to assume COM
mand of the little army of patriots
1t was mostly farmers who composed
the American army at Lundy's Lane
and who won the battle on Lakes
Champlain and Erie.
1t was the predominating agricul-
tural States which sent their volun-
tccrs with Taylor and Scott. 1t was
the farms of country New England
and the Central West which filled
the armies of Grant and Sherman. 1t
was country boys who nccKcd to
, the standard of Lee ard jackson. 1t
was large towns which made Coop
pcrhcads" and saw the only draft
riots. The Rough Riders were coun-
trymcn except for few adventurous
spirits who had learned country ways
Not only are country boys form
'hg the larger part of the new ma
t'"nal army, but their commanders
INSIST that the highest efficiency Of
this amy demands this iravcn Of
country character, strength and 10y
atty.
There can be no doubt whatever
that the real cause for the apparcnt
relative slow response Of farmers TO
the call for subscriptions to Liberty
Bonds was due 10 the failure Of those
In charge Of the campaign to either
appreciate the point of view Of the
farmer or to understand the differ
cnce between tn" method for reach
ing him and that effective with the
town people. This essential differ.
encc was used with consDicuous sue
cess IN Green county, Missouri A
public bond rally was held in every
country school house in the county
where the issues were explained by
men in whom the farmers had conf
dcncc. Then every resident Of the
district not present at the school
house was personally visited by a
district committee the next day. The
result was one Of the largest per capi-
Ia subscriptions in any agricultural
county in the country, largely exceed
ing its allotted quota.
Those willing to vilify the farmer,
or ignorant of his real position, have
used other facts to his Disadvantage
IN this connection. They tell us that
the demand of the farmer voiced
by every national agricultural organ
lZation--that farm labor be made a
favored class in army exemption is
unpatrIotlc. 1t is more logical and
far more true to fact to believe that
tie real motive behind this course is
purely patriotic. 1t is adopted as the
only sure way for meeting the war
shortage Of labor needed for the pro-
ductlon of food crops indispensable

Road Maintenance Cost.

The county engineer of Spokane
county, who has had a lot of expert
ence with the construction and main
tenance of good roads, writes in reply
to an inquiry as to the cost of main
tanning Macadam Roads: ''For a
period of five years the annual cost
per mile for maintenance has run
from $3.50 to $500 per mile. | believe
a safe estimate would be about 500
per mile to keep roads in good con-
dition. All of our improved roads
are subject to very heavy automobile
traffic, which makes maintenance
much greater than if it were mostly
team drawn vehicles.
