not been sufficiently remunerative
these past years to hold it's own with
industry as represented by shop and
factory. The movement Of population
from the open country to the con-
gested centers has placed a hardship
both upon agriculture and upon those
who dwell in the cities, where building
operations, because Of the war, could
not keep pace with growing demands.
It is perhaps not surprising that in
the course of certain of the milk in
vestigations" Of two or three years
ago the farmers labor was figured at
80 cents an hour. AT 10 hours day
for something over 300 working days
in the year this amounts to about
81 ,0OO-the figure reached by the
group of Wisconsin farmers of whom
mention already has been made. This
figure, which appears to be justified
by many actual results achieved in the
past, takes no account, however, of
overtime 16 hours day that
constitutes the working schedules on
most farms in the busy season. 1t
takes no account of Sunday labor,
when stock must be fed and watered
as usual, and when cows, as on other
days, must be MIXED It takes no ac-
count Of investment in land, buildings,
machinery and so on. Thirty cents an
hour reduces the stockholder in s"the
biggest Of big businesses" to where
he receives but half the wage granted
farmhands of the .boomer" type!
FARMER MUST
HELP HIMSELF
The farmer has been patient even
in the face of long suffering. In many
instances he has continued to farm
under great acknowledgements simply
because he knew how to do nothing
else. He has seen operations on the
board of trade extract thousands of
dollars in valuation from his crops in
the course of a day or two. He has
seen the products of his toll passed
from hand to hand before reaching
the consumer each rapid transfer of
ownership exacting profit fully as
great as that represented by his en-
GlISs SS1SOu Il6 has WdGCll6u
ebig business" so systematic its op-
erations in converting the products of
the farm into specialized commodities
that only the pigs squeal has es-
capped the tin can and the sausage cas-
ing. AS result of all this he is re-
solved that his business the biggest
Of all shall remain no longer simply
one of production alone. He is con-
vinced that if agriculture is to be
saved he must free it from it's para
sitical enemies, the unnecessary mid
dleman and the speculator He senses,
also, the fact that lack of unifcation
and cooperation in his own ranks pro-
vides the opportunity for .tbig busi-
ness" to keep a strangle hold upon the
necessities Of life. Henceforth the
farmer is resolved to treat himself to
a square deal. Only through action
Of his own can he foresee that agri-
culture is to be placed on more re-
munerative basis. He expects no one
else to fight and win its battles.
