THE FARMER AND THE LIBERTY LOAN

O.. Can the farmer afford to buy
Liberty Bonds?
A. Yes. The value of thirteen
principal field crops for 1917 is two
and a half times the average value of
those crops-$10, 692, 361. 900 against a
five-year average (1911-15) of $4,939,-
142, 000-and the value of all farm
products, plant and animal, has in
creased In about the same proportion.
The farmer has the money with which
to buy Liberty Bonds and can afford
1t,
@. Can the farmer afford NOT to
buy Liberty Bonds?
A. No. There was exported last
year S 1858, S49, TOT worth of farm
products-almost twice the value of
all farm products exported the year
the European war began.
@. But Is that increase in Ameri-
can exports of farm products due to
Americas participation in the war?
A. Yes-directly and absolutely. If
the United States, instead of declar-
Ing war against Germany, had submit
ted to Germany's demands, practically
all American exports of farm products
would have been shut off and the en-
tire product of American farms have
been bottled up in this country.
@. Suppose the United States had
been so craven as to submit to Ger
many's insulting terms as to ship
ments, been thus deprived of the
right of sending its farm products
abroad and forced to keep all the
fruits of its fields at home, what
would have been the consequence to
the American farmer?
A. The supply of all kinds of farm
products would have exceeded the de
mand. Prices would have gone down
instead of up. Corn, cotton and other
staple crops would have sold for less
than the cost of production. For many
crops, no market at all could have
been found. Farmers who were in
debt would have been unable to meet
their notes and mortgages as they
came due. Hundreds of thousands
of farmers would have been absolutely
ruined and all of them would have
faced an era of stagnation and star
walton prices such as has never been
seer in this country.
The Pleasantville press. (Pleasantville, N.J.) 1912-1929, 1918-04-06

@. Then the farmers Of the United
States owe to this nations partic1pa-
ton in the war not only their pres
ent prosperity, but also their escape
from a condition Of poverty and pri-
vation?
A. Yes. If the United States had
knuckled to Germany, the American
farmer instead of enjoying unprece-
denied prosperity, would have faced
almost unprecedented misery.
@. You say unprecedented pros
perity" and unprecedented misery"
On what Is that statement concretely
based?
A. Well, wheat is selling now for
So a bushel. The average price prior
to 1914 was 81 cents a bushel. Corn
Is selling for $1.28 a bushel, against
an anti-war average of SO cents; cot
ton for nearly $40, against $50 a
bale; tobacco for nearly $25, against
$40 per hundred weight; potatoes for
$1.23, against so cents per bushel,
and so with all crops. If we had sub
mitted to Germany's demand to stop
sending our products across the
ocean, large quantities of these COM
modities could not have been sold at
all but would have rotted in the fields
and the top price for wheat where it
sold would not have been more than
so cents a bushel, corn not more than
% cents a bushel, cotton not more
than IS a hundred and tobacco not
more than "a a hundred.
@. Then the farmer should buy
Liberty Bonds to support the war be-
cause the war has given him prosperi-
ty and because Liberty Bonds consti-
tute a sort of insurance policy for
continued prosperity?
A. That is hardly the way to put
1t. The farmer should buy Liberty
Bonds to support the war because
buying Liberty Bonds is a part of
his duty to his country. But, fortu-
nately for him, the war has put him
in such a condition of prosperity that
he can buy literally of Liberty Bonds
without hurting himself. There is a
scriptural injunction to give into the
Lord according as the Lord has pros
pered you. 1t applies to this phase
of the cause of right just as thorough
ly as any other.

WHEN LIFE GROWS LIMITED.

Anne Bryan Mccall says in the
April Woman's Home Companion:
$50 many of us are hedged about
by old beliefs, old conventions, or, it
may be, old prejudices and fears
which grow up like the hedges around
our homes and which, like them,
thicken and grow taller with the years.
And outside these hedges there stand,
like pointed iron fences, the sharp
opinions of others; and these things
shut us in and bar us from the world
of larger living, unless we are careful
to keep the gateways of our lives
open, unless we are careful to ven
ture forth, now and then, past all
these limitations.
