WE GIVE Mr.. SHEARER
THE LAST WORDS

Edltof star: IN the recent reply 10
an article which / wrote in answer to
the Star, stopping the Spigot," the
editor of the Star says: 1.-THE reason
why the Star opposes the state mar
keting bureau is that it is paternal-
ism in the most emphatic form"
Webster says "Paternalism Is the
quality or character of being paternal.
The theory or practice of government
after the manner of a father; the
claim or attempt on the part of a
government to control the business or
the social and personal affairs Of a
people after the manner of father
dealing with his children"
The state marketing bureau does
not solicit business, does not compel
anyone to deal thru it or take its adj
vice. 1t is ready to serve any farmer
or other citizen of Florida when call
ed on to do so and does not give serv-
ice unless requested TO give it by
those in need of it.
Free governments derive their just
powers by the consent of the govern
ed The marketing bureau gives
service by the consent of those re-
lceiving the service. Is this paternal-
| ism? We have an agricultural depart
ment which advises the farmers, as
sists them along lines of production
just as the marketing bureau does
along marketing lines; and the de.
partment of chemistry, which will as,
lsist the farmers. even analyze sample:
lof fertilizers sent out by private com
panies, forcing them to make the de
IficieAcy good. Is that paternalism?
We have state schools teaching ag
lriculture and many other subjects, il
competition to private schools, run b!
Iprivate Individuals teaching thu
same. Is this paternalism? Should
they be abolished? The Interstat,
Commerce Commission and state rail
road commission sometimes regulat

which 10 doubt interfere with the
business of private corporations. l.
this rendering Of public service pa
ternalism?
The American people got IN the
way of private business when they
said the saloon must go. Did You
favor that? Is that paternalism?
Changing the reap hook for the self
binder, the messenger boy for the
telephone and telegram, man power
for steam power, horse power for
electricity, the ox-cart for the auto
mobile, ETC., may have been a great
inconvenience TO some private enter
prise or individual, but it was best
for the public, and was not paternal-
ism. Neither is q department, created
at the request of the farmers, sup
ported by the farmers, and serving
the farmers, as well as anyone else
who may request it. paternalism.
Every intelligent man knows that
distribution is essentially part of
production, and that it is as much the
duty of the state 70 advise and assist
the farmers in packing, grading,
loading, shipping, selling and buying
as it is to advise them in fertilization,
cultivation and rotation. No, the
state marketing bureau is no more
paternal than other state depart
ments.
The Star says "the present com.
missioner will not stay there forever
that he will be succeeded by a poll.
itician." Not necessarily so. The bu
reau is part of the department OF
agriculture, and it will be remembered
that Mr.. H. S. Elliot, chief clerk Of
the department who died last summer
had been chief clerk for more than 81
years, and if Commissioner Rhode!
lcontinues to serve Florida as faith
fully and efficiently as he has for tn
; last four years, it would be poor pol
itics on the part Of any politician t.
remove him, as well as an injury T.
5 the agriculture of the state.
He said hadn't told how farmers
: truckers, fruit growers, stockmer
etc., of the great majority of tn
: states have formed district, count,
4 and township associations, at no ex
= pense to the state, etc. 1t is true tina
Z these things are being done, and n

Justly deserve to make Improvements /
in their homes and on their farms
Better marketing conditions are es-
sential to the attaining Of the Marion
county you spouse In radius Of !
one and one-half miles of me are eight 1
|dilapidated farm homes, forsaken, al
most forgotten. that not later than |
fifteen years ago, some as recently as /
five, contained farmers who were hon
setly and diligently seeking economic |
independence. They saw that they /
were doomed to failure, that farming |
didn't pay. Quietly they have gone
into other business and their farms !
are neglected. Marion county is the |
loser, for we have no farmers to
spare. Today if you will go into the
| farming districts you will find that
many of the farmers are IN the same
notion, yet you would advertise Mar
! ion county as a thriving agricultural
county. l am well acquainted with
the blue grass hills and valleys of
Kentucky and Tennessee, having been
a farmer there the greater portion Of
my life. l know we'll their agricul-
tural advantages, but l have put my
faith in the gentle rolling but fertile
hills of Marion county. My earnest
efforts and desires are to see these
fertile hills bloom with prosperity,
and our only hope is through the pa
Itient and untiring effort of the farm
er. Our land is highly productive,
and the only barrier between US and
la highly developed agricultural coun-
lty that will outshine the best is finan-
cial success.
: Production alone will not cure our
ills. The matter of marketing is our
J big problem. Our over supplying
J some localities, while others are suf-
fering for our goods, is our great in
efficiency. Every farmer in the state
knows the trouble and fears the result
, of marketing season. Quite a portion
, OF my time has been spent studying
and trying to better these deplorable
conditions. With the assistance of
/, the state marketing bureau, the Star,
= and other friendly agencies we have
' established a cooperative market in
: Ocala that is paying institution to
{ the farmer. / am certainly very
D grateful to the Star for the interest
0 it has taken in US, for its encourage
f ment from the beginning of our en-
e deavors, and most especially to the
editor who has always been so congen-
r ial. Now our local efforts will not
y suffice. We need the state marketing
bureau, and it a growing institution
. all the time. If it is not what it
should be, and yet gives so much val
2 liable service to the people, why not
J: help US make it better?
: Since writing the foregoing. / am
!: glad to inform the general public
