DDS in these days 1t was only possible
to Increase the production of food
stufrs 10 per cent-hence the In.
creased cost of living.
In 1880 70 per cent of the popula.

farms. 1t was necessary then for
each farmer to produce only sufficient
food for himself and a mere fraction
OF another family Today over 70
per cent of the population of the
United States lives in the densely pop-
