CULTURES NEEDS AT
THIS TIME.

Chicago Ill.-In an answer to a
eericurists Of the county, Leonard
Wood. Republican candidate for
presidential nomination. yesterday
gave one of the most candid state
inents OF his position toward the
farmer that has ever been published
by political candidate.
After declaring that the decline OF
agriculture is one of the greatest dan
gers the country faces. and that the
farmer. as the backbone of the nation,
Is entitled to every administrative en-
couragement and square deal all
around, Wood gave as the salient
points in his agricultural beliefs;
Il. The farmer sacrificed much dur
ing the war. We owe him debt of
gratitude we never can repay for his
stanch loyalty.
"2. Education for farm children
should be as easily accessible and on
AS high a plane as that of city chill
dren, with vocational training to the
last degree, In a broad, consolidated
school system.
20. We must give the rural districts
good roads. for commerce md relu-
lions.
"A. There must be department OF
agriculture In full and intelligent co.
operation with the farmer and the
great farm organizations.
70. believe in far closer connec-
ton between producers and consumers
of food. Too small II portion of the
consumers cost gets back to the
farmer
&c. Hoarding OF food supplies should
be vigorously suppressed.
u. Secure provision should be made
TO enable farmers to get adequate
credit to extend farming interests.
IS, There should be bigger supplies
of fertilizer available at cheaper
rates.
80. believe that the treatment of
cooperative organizations of farmers
should be with the same consideration
as to other organizations under SLIM.
lnr circumstances.
40. believe In the gradual aboll-
ton of farm tenancy and encourage
ment of ownership OF land by the in.
dividual farmer.
I'll. | believe In wide extension Of
the farm bureau system which seems
well fitted TO solve many of the eco
nomic questions which confront the
farmer--problems of production and
distribution"
