The city man gets big wages,
the farmer gets none. But the
city man must pay out every
month a large part of his wages
in house rent; the farmer owns
his own house. The city man
must buy coal and gas for heat
ing and cooking, which takes
another big lump out of the
months wages; the farmer has
his wood lot or cob bin where he
by "pottering around" bit can
get his fuel without cost. The
city man must buy everything
that he eats, which takes another
great slice out of his monthly
pay; for even though the farmer
gets next to nothing for what he
sells in the line of products from
the farm (which isn't true with
the exception of potatoes and a
few other things), the city man
pays high prices for them. The
reason for this is not so much
profiteering or greed as high
wages. The railroad, the whole
saler, the retailer, the delivery
man, all of them paying the ele-
waited cost in wages, in taxes and
in office and other kind of rents,
and so in order to live and pros
per the cost must necessarily be
enhanced. The farmer produces
most of the necessaries of life,
so his outlay for food is small
compared with the man of the
city.
1t then appears that when the
landlord, the coal man, the butch
er, the baker and the candlestick
maker are paid, not a great deal
is left to provide for a rainy day
or. old age. | presume that in
most cases there isn't enough
left to properly care for all of
the many expenses Incidental to
city life.
So after all, even at the big
wages the city man is getting, he
is worse off than the farmer.
The farmer may hope land
hope is a great asset in life) that
somewhere about the farm the
fruit of his labor has accumu-
lated, so when the day comes he
can no longer potter around"
there will be enough real value

stored away to care for him COM
fortably during his declining
years. The majority of the city
people can not entertain such a
hope.
His fare may have been richer
and his working hours shorter,
but what of that. That certain
ly does not create happiness,
contentedness and confidence.
The fear that a crash may come,
that Some day the wages received
will not be equal to the cost of
shelter and food haunts many a
city man. This fear does not
bother the farmer very much.
His "pottering around leaves
him no time for it, and if his
thoughts happen to dwell on the
subject, he can comfort himself
easily, because he knows that he
is using every minute to stave
off just such a calamity, and he
also knows that the farm will be
there and keep on producing UNI
der the care of his family.
According to U. S. statistics a
great number of people have left
the farm during the last few
years, and, really, who should
blame them. However, my opin-
ion is that in doing so they are
making a great mistake. This is
the way | see it. A man selling
his farm and equipment these
days will receive only a minimum
of the true value, and when he
