The members of the state legisla-
ture are very clearly in favor of do
ing something for the farmers of
South Dakota. Up to date two bills
prepared with that idea in mind have
received notice in the papers and In
the legislative halls. One is the
Swanson bill favoring price fixing, and
the other provides a large appropria-
ton to make a marketing survey OF
the state to obtain the exact cost Of
production of the various farm prod
ucts. Neither Of these pieces of leg
islation makes a hit with the farmer
although he appreciates the spirit in
which they were framed. Speaking
through the farm bureau, the farmers
will give the legislature an idea of
the best course to pursue, for the in
terests of all. The farmers do not
want the state to spend a huge sum
like $4,000 OF so. to make a research
into the cost of production when the
extension department of State college
has been doing that very thing for
years and right today IA give a sur
prisingly large amount of data on
the subject. The farmers recommend

goes TO show that the farmers are

state or the nation. They are asking
aven less than the legislature a al

reau and other farmer organizations
may secure in the meantime the nee
recognition of the nation S
industry. If this proposition
is accepted by the thinking farmer,
whether owner or tenant, he should
not remain idle or Indifferent. He
should ally himself with the farm bu-
reau or other reputable farmers or
ganization and lend his support and
influence in securing a national policy
for agriculture which will insure a
stable farm population and a depend
able food supply for the nation.

cupation. It is a matter Of deep re.
greet that our economic conditions are
such as make it seem necessary to
leave the farm. when the leaving can
only bring disaster. What the nation
needs is a square deal for every one,
farmers included, and when those
who are dealing feel the united influ-
ence of the farm population, we shall
be in a fair way to get it.

GOVERNMENT AND INDIVIDUAL

Minneapolis Journal-There is wis
dom in the saying that the best gov
eminent is that which governs least.
The implication is that the need of
government becomes of less import
ance as the individual approaches a
state Of perfection.
At present the United States is at
tempting to ind perfection in govern
ment by substituting laws for lack Of
intelligence on the part of it's citizens.
For the people, being far from perfect,
are under the notion that the govern
ment, II provided with laws, can do
just about anything. That is the rea-
son why the state and federal laws of

which we should not soon forget. That
experience should have pointed the
moral as TO governments and laws. 1t
should have proved to the individual
the fallacy that a government can by
law do everything. No government
can be better than the citizenship from
which il derives its powers. AS the
people possess no magical powers, it
is foolish to suppose that the govern
ment can lift every load or perform
miracles just because it has law-mak-
ing powers. Nonsense does not make
common sense when enacted into law.
Only as American citizenship perfeccs
itself. viii The government reach that
