Farmer Profits From High Wages

Farmer Profits From High wages.
This changed attitude of the
farmer toward labor is summed up
in a recent address by an officer of
the National Farmers Union before
the state convention of the Nebras-
ka Farmers Union:
You know-if you do not. you
should-that the biggest and broad
est aud most profitable market the
American farmer has is the pur-
chasing power of American labor.
You know that during the war, for
the first time in the history of this
republic, all labor was adequately
paid and fully employed, and you
know that during that same period,
for the first time in the history of
agriculture, you were able to get a
fair price for your produce, because
the laboring man was able to buy
what his family actually needed
Let US not run away with the idea
that there is any conflict between
agriculture and labor. There are
too many people in the country in
terested in driving a wedge be-
tween them. We are going to act
together one of these days for
common purpose"

Low Wages Ruin Wheat Market

Low wages KUN wheat Market.
How quickly low wages cuts off
the market for the farmers crops
is indicated by the figures recently
collected by the Joint Commission
of Agricultural Inquiry appointed
by the 9th Congress. Chairman
Sidney Anderson of this Commits
sion discovered that the per capita
consumption Of wheat in the United
States had suddenly dropped from
60 bushels in the prosperous wear
of 1919 to 4.6 bushels in 192O-21.
Accounting for this alarming de-
crease of 33 1-3 per cent. causing a
fall of 230,000,000 bushels of wheat
In our annual consumption, Con-
gresham Anderson said: at was
due to the bad industrial conditions
of unemployment and industrial de-
preston" In other words, the coun-
try is suffering from under-con-
sumption and not over-production.
On the other hand, when the far
mer cannot sell his crops at a fair
price, he has no money to buy cloth
ing and farm machinery. and the
city workers who make these arti-
cleS are thrown out of employ
ment Between the producing elias
SEES, whether in field or factory.
there is an unacceptable identity of
interests.

Good Samaritans

Up in the northern part of Maine,
in Sorrento, one of the schoolboys
had the misfortune to break his leg
coasting. But luckily, this young
man was a member of the Junior
American Red Cross and so the
lengthy hours of enforced idleness
were frightened by the other Jun
iors in his school. Two boxes were
sent to him, containing presents
from each child in his school with
directions to open one gift each day,
and his schoolmates took turns 60
ing to see him so that he had at
least one visitor a day.
These same Juniors write letters
to a patient in one of the nearby
hospitals who had been sent there
from their town.
Surely theer are cOmpensations
even in case of sickness and at is
an i'll wind that blows nobody any
good"
The Myth of "The Good Old Days"
The farmers will not go back to
the "good old days." within the

Farmer Aroused by Deflation

This drawing together of farm
and city labor has not occurred over
night. The recent deflation which
picked the farmers pocket to the
tune of nearly SS,0O0,O0O, 900, 600
and Debated agricultural values
on an average Of 20 per cent in two
years time compelled even the
most Indifferent farmer to do
some independent thinking. The
farmers learned. for instance, that
this SS,0OO,OOO, 100000 did not 90 in
to the pockets of the city workers,
who were even more Debated than
their rural brethren. On the con-
trary, low wages and low prices for
farm produce impoverished them
both for the enrichment of the
same group Of bankers, spectators
and middlemen

Common Interests and Common
Enemies

The modern farmer has joined
hands with the city worker because
he realizes that they have COM
mon interests and common enemies
Even the most obtuse farmer now
admits that debated wages mean
debated prices for farm products,
and that the same selfish interests
which profit from the one profit
from the other also. With this
realization has come a changed at
titude toward labor unions, because
the farmer himself has learned that
only by united effort and collective
bargaining can he secure a fair
price for his own product. In brief,
the farmer sees that without the
labor unions the worker cannot get
a fair wage, and without fair wages
the farmer will not receive fair
prices. Indeed, instead of berating
the unions, the farmer is now or
ganizing unions Of his own. Some
of these go under the name of CO.
operative organizations, which mar
ket the product of all for the benefit
of each. Others are called out and
out Farmers Unions"

AT THE BAUeH

Bring Him In, Monday. Oct. End.
Earl Williams has a mystery story
in "Bring Him In. which viii be
shown at the Baugh Theatre, Monday
Ocober End
The story deals with man who
had a peculiar dream in which he
fancied he killed an enemy. So vivid
was this night vision that upon aris-
ing the hero ran to the spot repre-
sented in his dream and found the
man dead. He was not sure that he
did not actually kill the individual,
and in order to gain time, hides in
the northwest, where he is trailed by
a Sergeant of the Royal Northwest
Mounted Police. How the Sergeant
and the hero live together in the woods
unaware of each others identity and
how the former finally brings his man
in form an intense dramatic story,
which is enlivened by a true love in
terest, in which the girl solves the
mystery and clears the name Of the
hero.
A large portion Of the action takes
place in the Canadian northwest por-
ton of British Columbia-the scenery
for this picture is especially beautiful
Earl Williams as Doctor Hood, the
Hunted Man, is far superior to any
picture he has so far appeared in.
