You may think that we become more

Calling a man a nasty name is
poor way to dispose of his argu-

A Business of The Future.

f. G. Guamme, president of the
federal land bank of ST. Paul, pre-
diets that farming will be better and
more profitable from now on, the
upward trend to continue for
perhaps thirty years or longer.
He expresses the view that farm
ing will be the safest, best and most
satisfactory business in America
within the next ten years.
Everything points in this direc-
ton and as this feeling of security
begins to permeat the farming in
dustry, farm land prices are going to
rise because farmers are beginning
to. appreciate that their possessions
are rated higher than they supposed.
The area of the demagogue in
public office is behind US. The period
of unrest in the farming industry
may be traced to the doorstep Of
office seekers who used the tenn
porarily unfavorable conditions for
their own profit.
They proposed all sorts of cure
alls to catch votes, but farmers are
awakening to the realities of the sit
uation. They are beginning to
realize that no amount of paterna-
listic legislation is the solution of a
problem that is purely economic.
A billion dollar increase in the
agricultural wealth of the nation in
the last few weeks has been founda-
ton enough for the renewed hope
arising in the breast of the farmers.
Farm buying power is higher to-
day than it has been for several
years and indications are that it will
go higher.
Farm prices are going up and
commodity prices are going down
The farmer takes in more money and
can buy more merchandise with the
money he takes in.
He is unaffected by industrial un-
rest and he has no unemployment
problem. Business on the farm is
going ahead at full speed because
there is an assured market for his
products.
On the whole, the farmer has as
much if not more, reason to feel
encouraged than any other business
man.

Looks like folks would try to get
as much in their heads as they do in
their pockets.
A newspapers duty is to print
things it may not like, but which the
public does
The truth should always be told,
but sometimes it is safer to let the
other fellow do the telling.
Men who are perfectly honest in
business transaction never suffer
any pangs of conscience in telling a
fish story
