Stop Stealing-The Public So Orders
"Stop stealing. Drive profiteers
out of business. Hit the rent hog.
Hit the retail hog. Hit the road hog.
Hit the big fat middleman who is |
crushing the life out of the producer.
He's reaping the big profit. Limit
the profit the middleman-hog can
make.
eff you allow farmers to be driven
back to their sod houses, you city
folks will starve. The city can not
live unless the farmer is to prosper.
Agriculture must survive if the ma
ton is to endure.
''If farmers are not to get more for
their crops than they got ten years |
ago, and have to pay twice as much
for what they buy, they are going to
buy only half as much. When that
condition develops idle men will fill
tlae streets and farmers will have to
feed them when they cry for bread"
This timely warning was handed
to a big audience of business men
in Kansas City by man who had
travelled much and who knew the
mind of the farmer and who knew
the danger ahead of this nation if the
farmer is not permitted to be pros
porous.
This warning is worth reading
twice and thrice by town and city,
the nation over.
