, THE FARM BUREAU DRIVE

The drive Of the kennebec Farm
Bureau for increased membership
ought to be productive. Not only is
it no trouble for the Bureau to show
goods but it has them to show. 1t
has made an excellent record in this
county. From all that we learn con-
ditions in the rural communities have
been greatly improved, live interest
has been aroused among the young
people. valuable information has
been disseminated, and yet only
beginning has been made. II all this
be correct. and we believe thunder
rather than overestimated. the sup
port should be unanimous.
Improved methods have been &C
quired, orchards have been put into
better condition. the farmer has come
to regard his woodlot as a field of
crops, he has learned how to spec
ialize, and so far this year nineteen
demonstrations in estimating timber
have been given. Plans are being
perfected for next years Bureau
campaign and it IL certain to be Of
both interest and profit. All in the
rural community inevitably profit
from this well directed endeavor
and each individual should be proud
to contribute to it.

"She certainly was" answered
Professor Jim Crow. AS black as

that's not strange at all. 1t often

consumption Of the United States is
to impoverish the population, and
that IL exactly what would happen if
these policies are carried out.
mfr. La Toilette does not on this
occa sion mention his proposal of two
months ago about government own
ership of railways, nor his proposal
that Congress should override the
Supreme Court. In the case of gov
eminent ownership Of railways. 1t
would be desirable to know whether
he would provide the right of EN-
ployase to strike whenever they
wanted an increase IN wages, or
whether he would suppress strikes
among Government employees and
thus thrust all of the railway EN-
ployees In the country into entire
subsection to Congress for their
living standards.
I'm the case of the plan to let
Congress override the Supreme
Court, It would be interesting to
know whether or not the various
minoritiAs in the United States are
to sacrifice their safety un-
der the present convolution and sub
ject themselves to the will Of a con-
sressional majority"

farmer by reducing labor wages so

market for American farm produce
would be decreased by one fourth

mfr. La Toilette says:-'The con-
sumption per capita for such staple
food as bread is very much less than
1t was few years ago. 1t means
that there are many people in the
United States today who are hungry
for bread There Is not a single
soup line in the United States today.
As a matter OF fact bread consump-
ton has been decreasing in the
United States in recent years. but
Mr.. La Toilette entirely distorts the
fundamental reason therefor and
that 10 the increasing prosperity and
higher standard Of living of the
American people. Every population
in the world decreases its bread con-
sumption by an increase in proper
tionatc consumption Of meats. fruits,
sugar and other palatable and more
varied foods. just in proportion to
its standards OF living.
Senator La Toilette entirely ne
elects to mention the increase in
other lines of agricultural products.
He neglects to say that under the
low standards of living in Europe the
consumption OF breadstuffs amounts
to 60 per cent of the total diet as
against 20 per cent in the United
States. II Mr.. La Toilette would re-
turn the American people to the
squalor Of Europe, he would increase
the consumption Of bread because of
the inability OF the population to buy
other more expensive foods. The fol-
lowing table shows the increase in
consumption Of foodstuffs per capita
IN the United States in important
lines compared with wheat:
