field and then would be graduated into
the guard, where they would serve act

MEN AND ACRES

There is a scarcity of men on the
farms.
This is not news to anyone. 1t is a
subject which has evoked much
lamentation for a considerable period.
But there Is a ray of sunshine pierre
ing the gloom.
After the Civil War vast tracts of
land we're offered to discharged sol
diers. Men found themselves in pos
session of large portions Of the ter
restrial crust which they could not
use because there was too much of it,
So they set their brains to work.
The result was farm machinery.
The binder and the threshing
machine made their appearance. The
gang plow the seed drill, and various
other products Of the machine shop
were soon in evidence. The fail and
scythe were superseded.
There were not enough men to
balance the acreage, so machines
made up the deficit.
This process seems likely to happen
again. In the last census period the
number of farms of so to It's acres
increased only 6 per cent, while these
Of 500 to 1900 acres grew % per cent,
AS a result, the tractor.
But 1t will not stop here. Not only
Is the farmer now a mechanic, he is
also an accountant. One Of the firms
which supplies goods almost exclusive.
ly to farmers has listed in it's cata.
logs fourteen different styles OF Office
desks. The farmer in his office with
a telephone at his elbow is now more
than a fantastic dream.
Cheer up. The scarcity Of men
compared with acreage will stimulate
an ingenuity and beget a progressive
attitude that otherwise would never
have come to birth.
