to birth control was urged before sew
eral hundred farmers at the University
farm today by a. d. Wilson, director
of the agricultural extension division
of the University of Minnesota, speak
ing at the opening program of farmers
and homemakers' week
Let's not get 50 thick here in
America, we won't have but a few
acres each to live on, Mr.. Wilson
pleaded.
This talk about birth control is not
merely foolishness. 1t is q question,
we have to solve to determine the
standard by which our grandchildren
and great grandchildren are going to
live.
Don't be fooled by arguments that
every American farmer is a poor farm =
.er and every European farmer is a
good farmer.
It's not Il question of how many
bushels to the acre a farm will pro-
ducc, but how much per man."
