believe now make the housewives work joy?
There is no electric power for lighting, washing,
pumping. A bathroom is rarity Water is till
being drawn from the well or the pump by the
kitchen sink. The roads in this section are
atrocious It is true, we have telephones and auto
mobiles (some of us). There is no abject poverty;
at the same time there is little leisure, little COM
fort.
Isolation creates conservatism.
So much for material conditions. Revolutionary
consciousness for radical change in
society-is at a minimum We hear Of the farmers
conservative instinct" 1t is not instinct, but
isolation, that makes the farmer Conservative
isolation and the Sun, the Times, the Newark
Evening News and those other anti-working-
class newspapers which alone penetrate his remote
corner to mould his opinion It is not strange that
here the l. W. w. is an object of ridicule and the
Communists of dread. The Sun, the Times and the
rest of the lying tribe have taught the farmer
that these people are bloated, sponging labor
fakirs or wild eyed aliens bent upon destroying
everything" Who will tell him that the /. w. W.
is group of hard working, conscientious men
and women whose aim is to abolish the enslave-
ment of the working people by idle parasites?
Who will tell him that the Communists wish to
inaugurate society in which the means of pro-
duction factories, mines, etc. will be owned
collectively and their product enjoyed by all in
stead of by a few?
The farmer must learn that his interests are
those Of the working class. It is true that as a
property holder and an occasional employer of
help the small farmer belongs with the lower
middle class Nevertheless he lives mainly from
his own labor, and he is exploited by the retailers,
manufacturers, and middlemen to whom he must
sell his crops. These two facts identify him with
the working class. Let him learn then where his
true interests lie. Let the farmer join hands with
the industrial proletariat, to struggle together
until the working class as body comes into

THE SMALL FARMERS OF NORTHERN NEW JERSEY
By John Lawrence.

The working farmer is not generally pro-
pagandized by the revolutionary movement
Nevertheless, he is the bread-producer, and his
opposition at the time of revolution would be
stumbling block to speedy proletarian victory
Here in Northern New Jersey the farms are
one-man farms averaging about thirty acres
Crops are carted to the neghboring towns; there
are however, no public markets, so the farmer
must either sell to the retailer or peddle his
produce from door to door. In the former case he
is at the mercy of the store keepers In the latter
he must lose time and energy which he can ill
spare from the field.
Big Crops And Small Prices.
This year is an apple year. Because the fruit
is abundant the price is inadequate in some cases
it is so low that it does not pay to pick the fruit
We are shaking to be ground and grinding into
cider apples of choice variety such as city people
pay five cents piece for and more. Barrels also
are difficult to obtain.
One day last summer several truck loads of
tomatoes were brought by the farmers to a can
ming factory. Fifteen cents basket (thirty cents
a busheD was the price the buyers offered. Think
OF it! Fifteen cents for what represented hours
of planting, cultivating, spraying, picking! Well
the Gamers got the tomatoes but not in the way
they wanted There were some hot bloods among
the farmers and they climbed upon the trucks
and peted the buyers and every one within reach
with the fruits of their labor The streets of the
town ran red with-tamotoes The farmers anger
was vented but their purses We're not filled So
does capitalist economy function, with waste
waste of material, waste Of energy, waste of life
Primitive Methods The Rule.
Methods of agriculture are primitive, The small
farmer cannot afford scientific machines which
would tighten his toll and double his product.
Here, still prevail the two horse plough, the hand
cultivator, the hand-spray. The farmers body is
ments which the family magazines would have us
bent in his tussle with the soil.
