Serious Situation.

New England imports three-quac
tiers of her food supplies and the gulf
between production and consumption
is steadily widening.
Time was when the normal family
life was on the farm. There We're
Industries, to be sure, but they were
only OF local Importance.
With the rise of industrialism the
movement from the farm to the city
began and it has continued until in
Massachusetts, 92.S per cent OF all the
people live in the cities. The national
percentage of city dwellers in 1853
which is serious enough in itself.
II is not strange that we have high
living costs in New England. Bring
ing in food from distant parts OF the
country is expensive. The manufac-
turer who is nearer the source of food
supplies is better off because OF the
lower living costs which his employ
ees have to face.
The marked uneVenness in the bal
ance between production and con.
sumption OF food stuffs is n serious
matter to the manufacturer and the
laborer alike. If they look at it cor
rectly they will see that it is for their
interest and their advantage to bring
about development of the agricul-
tural industry in New England.
And yet it is very difficult matter
to adjust. With the high wages that
are ching paid city workers it is in.
creasing difficult to keep men on the
farms. 1t is natural that they should
feel the lure of shorter hours and
greatly increased wages being paid in
the city.
Farmers have kept their nerve pref
tyr well, but they are beginning to
show signs of losing courage. Good
farmers, with rich acres and modern
farm machinery are getting discour-
aged right here in Vermont.
Go to a farmers meeting and listen

to the comment. There is a feeling
growing. up that there must be re-
turn to the old days of the household
unit, with the farmer raising enough
for himself and his family and not
trying to raise surplus and put it
into the market which is vital TO the
city man.
The farmers don't want to do this.
They want to produce the necessary
surplus, hui they feel they are face TO
face with condition which masters
them. Cost of grain, OF labor, (even
If it is procurable), and all other
things Is so great that the sale of
farm commodities at a profit may
soon become impossible.
IL the farmer today were trimming
his farm on the basis OF union pay
and hours none but the very rich
could afford to eat. But the farmer
asks himself why he should labor
long hours with little remuneration
while the city dweller is ever getting
shorter hours and higher wages.
The situation is getting serious. A
strike in industry can be quickly set
tied il the necessary concessions are
made. However, if the farmer fails
to put in his seed in the spring there
won't be any harvest in the fall, no
matter how urgent the case may be
and no matter what concessions
might willingly be made.
The movement in New England is
the wrong way There must be a re-
adjustment brought about in some
manner The real situation in agri.
culture must be recognized by the la.
borers as well as by the manufacture
ers. 1t won't make much difference
how much the city man is paid il
there are no food stuffs which he can
purchase with his wage. 1t is direct
ly toward that condition that we are
now treading.-St Adams Messenger

Then MIXED TI!I Breakfast.

DR.. Samuel Schwab claims that the
Oldest good story is the one about the
boy who left the farm and got a job
in the city. He wrote letter to his
brother, who had elected to stick by
the farm, telling of the joys of city
life, in which he said:
Thursday we autoed out to the
country club, where we golfed until
dark. Then we trolleyed back to
town and danced until dawn. Then
we motored to the beach and Friday
ed there" The brother ON the farm
wrote back;
Yesterday we buggied to town and
baseballed all the afternoon. Then
we went to Ned's and pokered till
morning Today we mulAl out to the
cornfleld and gee-hawed till shutdown.
Then We suppeI5d and then we piped
for a while. After that we staircased
up to our room and bedsteaded until
