THE AGRICULTURAL GUARD

To safeguard American agricul-
ture is the prime need of the hour.
1t means food for our own people
and sustenance for our friends
abroad. To serve farming is to serve
our country. Service in agriculture
is fully as patriotic as service in
army or navy
All European experience in the
present war emphasizes these truths
England ignored them until almost
too late, but now is adopting most
desperate means to build up her do
nestle farming
The grave danger which confronts
the United States is that our great
presidents historic pronunciamento
may cause a pell-mell rush into the
army, navy and munition works of
labor from farms and factories. The
farm labor situation, already acute,
is now brought to a crisis by the war
fever which is sweeping over the
country.
Men are flocking to the colors,
partly because they think it is un-
patriotic, if not cowardly, not to en-
list. Others are leaving the country
for the excitement and activity in
the cities that war preparations al
ways create. Still others are lured
away from the land by the extrava-
CANT wages offered for even UNI
skilled labor.
This situation is so serious as to
threaten our own food supply and
the food needs of the rest of the
world. Should it continue uncor-
rected, especially if the season is un-
favorable to crops, there may not be
enough food to go around. In that
case, it would not be a matter OF
price, but rather of supply for while
the government could arbitrarily
regulate prices it could not arbitrar.
lily create food which does not exist
The remedy is simple: Let the
utilization of American industry
which congress is about to require
include official recognition of the
patriotic duty of men, women anC
children to serve their country BY
serving agriculture.
