Consumers will view with concern
the course Of the bill in Congress
permitting farmers to combine for
collective bargaining. The consumer
will ask why farmers, rather than
manufacturers, merchants, lumber
dealers, coal mine operators or
others should be made the bene-
fciaries Of law permitting efforts
to establish prices by combinations
and agreements.
II is true that farmers have been
and now are, at a disadvantage.
They cannot tag their produce as
merchants tag their articles and
commodities and offer for sale at
profit the products Of their labor and
their land They must produce for
market over which they exercise no
control and the fluctuations of which
they cannot foresee and guard
against. just now, farmers assert,
beef cattle and hogs are produced
at loss, as against selling the feed
that goes into their making ana en-
ploying otherwise the labor that is
devoted to feeding them. There is
also an admitted shortage of agricul-
tural labor and admitted inability Of
farmers to bid against factories,
mills. mines and other enterprises,
dollar for dollar for labor.
The possibility of actual shortage
of food, the certainty of reduction
of volume of agricultural production
are everywhere the topic of discus
sion. The question, therefore, is what
to do to stimulate production.
1t has been argued that the best
means of stimulating production
would be to decrease the spread be-
tween prices at the farm and prices
to consumers; to give the agricul-
tural producer more of the consum-
er's dollar, the sundry middle man
less of the consumers dollar. IL Is
said that the farmer gets more Of the
consumers dollar in countries in
Northern Europe, which export large
quantities of food from limited acre
age. We are importing butter from
Denmark, a country with an area
a little above one-third Of the area
The Mt. Sterling advocate. (Mt. Sterling, Ky.) 1890-current, 1920-06-17

prices alarm him. He would rather
see the farmer get more, the middle
man less, of what food now costs,
than see the farmer get more in cir
cumstances that would cause a raise
of prices all along the line from the
stockyards and grain elevators to the
butcher shops and groceries.
As the consumer sees it the great
difference between the price Of what
farmers sell and what consumers
buy represents cumbersome and cost
ly processes which might be simpli-
fed with the result that the produc-
ers might get more of the consum-
er's dollar; with the result that more
men would want t obecome agricul-
tural producers. Some of them, per-
haps, might be released for agricul-
tural production through lessening
of the man power engaged in distri-
bution.-Courier- Journal.

TENANTRY is AWFUL
INTHE LARGE CITIES

There is no doubt that change
must come in home owning in this
country if the mass Of our people are
to be true blue, patriotic American
citizens.
1t has long been a matter of seri-
Gus alarm that tenantry was increas-
ing in the country. We know that a
tenant cannot have the complete in
terest we would like him to have IN
the soil he works and the buildings
he uses. Ownership alone gives the
real interest that makes for con-
tinued fertility Of his land and for
upkeep and Improvement of farm
house and farm buildings.
1t is the same, only with differ
ent twist, in the cities. We have not
greatly agitated ourselves about
them, however, because we have
carelessly felt that tenantry was the
natural thing in the cities. But if it is
the natural thing, it shouldn't be.

Of Kentucky. We soon may be, in
vestigators say, importing large
amounts of food from other countries
not because we lack fertile lanu TO
produce a large volume of agricul-
tural commodities for export, in ad-
dition to a full supply for domestic
use. Something is wrong if this is a
probability. That something is that
opportunities for profit in agricul-
ture in America are not attracting
the young men by comparison with
opportunities in cities.
Laws to permit and encourage the
fermer to combine to establish prices
will be regarded by consumers as well
meant measures beginning at the
wrong point and leading in the wrong
direction. Effective, and generally
adopted, collective bargaining of ag-
ricultural producers might increase
the margin of profit, as well as the
farmers financial capacity to pay,
therefore to procure, labor in com
petition with urban enterprises. But
with the existing system of distrl-
button between the consumer and the
farmer the inc use of prices at the
farm would be more than absorbed
between original markets and deliv-
cries to consumers. Prices of food
would be materially increased.
Here the effort to better the lot
of the farmer would lead into the
familiar vicious circle of increasing
prices of food and increasing de-
mands of urban wage-earners, de-
pletion of farm labor by reason of
those demands being met, increase of
prices of implements, machinery,
tools, supplies, bought by farmers.
Granting power, under the law, to
combine to increase prices at the
farm. seems the lawmakers "easiest
way" rather than a real and salts
factory solution of one of the great
problems of the period. 1t is easily
argued that the farmer, laborer-
producer, or observation-disclosures,
should have the right of collective
bargaining if laborers have it.
There is hardly an answer to the ar
gument that something must be done
to restore the economic balance be-
tween town and country if the food
supply is to be maintained. But the
consumer has before him lessons
upon the effect Of Effective col
lective bargaining of labor upon
commodity prices.
The consumer has "seen" "raise"
whenever the effective collective bar
gamers have raised their prices. He
has sat in the game with diminishing
chips. The proposal that farmers be
encouraged 10 combine TO raise the
