ton result in prices altogether too nigh
for the average consuming public or
altogether too low for the producer
The other is that the over-stimulatlon
of grain production depletes the fer
tility of our land, which is our great
est national asset, and results IN
greater supply than can be consumed
at a price profitable to the producer,
and finally to widespread agricultural
distress from which all Of our people
suffer"
Speaking of the trend of prices or
farm products during the next two or
three years, he said that no one could
forecast them with any accuracy. lna'
as a nation we are undergoing the
same experience that the lndlVldual
undergOes when recovering from
long and dangerous illness. And then
he made this significant statement:
ut must be evident, however, to any
one who has given the matter even
superficial consideration, that we have
now come to the end of the long period
of agricultural exploitation in the
United States No longer are there

educational, social and religious Nv
ing conditions fairly comparable to
those offered by the cities. A sound
system of agriculture car not be main
tanned on any other basis Anything
short of a fair return upon invested
capital, and a fair wage for the labor
which goes into the crops, and enough
in addition to enable the farmer to
maintain the fertility of his soil, and
insure against natural hazards will
drive large numbers of farmers to the
cities"
Senator Harding made it perfectly
clear that this is a problem in which
city people have just as much interest
as the farmer. That unless we can
work out a rational and fair agricul-
tural policy, the drift to the city will
continue and our trouble will grow
constantly worse.
Speaking of farm organizations, he
said the farm organization of the pres
ent day is quite different from the or
ganization Of the past; that farmers
have learned sound principles of or
ganiZation that they are adapting to
their work the methods which busi-
ness men and working men have found
successful in furthering their own in
terests. He referred especially to the
successful organizations established by
the fruit growers of the west and by
the grain growers of the northwest, and
| said the farmers Of the corn belt
states are also rapidly perfecting the
| most powerful organization Of farm
ers ever known in the country. He
pointed out very frankly the danger
| that would come to the nation If the
! nroblems of the farmer were not
| frankly recognized, and If the farmer
was not given absolutely fair treat
| ment.
He said we have witnessed restrict
| ed production of manufactures and OF
labor, but we have not yet experienced
the Intentionally restricted production
Of foodstuffs, and expressed the hope
that we never may have that expert
| auz--
While frankly recognizing the need
| of a national agricultural policy, he
discIaimed any intention Of suggesting
| that the government should work Out
an elaborate system Of agriculture ano
then try to impose it on the farmers
of the country. He denounced such ar
effort as utterly repugnant to Amerl
can ideals. He said that government
naternalism, whether applied to ag
riculture or to any other of our grea
national industries, would stlhe amDl
ton, impair efficiency, lessen produc
tion and make us a. nation OF depend
ont incompetents. He said the farmel
requires no special favors at the hand

is 306 A. d. On one side it bears the
