turns from farming will become more
attractive. What will happen? Will
our farms continue to produce as in
dividual efforts, as they do now, or
will farming attract Big Business
and result in corporation farms. Will
our farmers continue to be free, in
telligent, self-determining and self
acting individuals, living upon their
own land, OF shall we have a race of
peasant farmers working upon large
landed estates or for farm corpora
tiOns? Which will be the better for
the country? There ought not to be
any question in our minds as to the
answer to this query. We do not want
European peasantry in this country
and we should strain every resource
to avoid it. The answer is, We must
have a full country life in all that the
term implies. We must have a happy
cOntented, comfortable, intelligent
population upon our farms. Rural
life must be enriched with the advan-
tages which attract to the city. Edu-
cation, recreation, satisfying living
conditions and fair compensation fol
effort in our rural districts is a neces-
sity for the future welfare of Oul
country. Business men in the cite.
should recognize that the problems o
rural America are likewise the prob
lens of urban America.

lures have an unhappy ending. The
successful ones we welcome. The
city business man who can take
farm, make it stand on its own feet
and pay dividends deserves a medal.
He is an inspiration and a hope for
the real dirt farmer. Such success
renews ones faith in the future pros
perity of American agriculture.
Urban Population Exceeds the Rural
america is fast becoming an in
dustrial nation. Our urban pOpula-
ton now exceeds our rural pOpula
ton. Economists are wondering if
we are to become a food importing
nation instead of food exporting ma
ton. 1t has been predicted that in
less than 30 years the United States
will not produce enough food to sup
port her population. If the present
drift of population toward the cities
keeps on unabated, it will take more
and more intelligent effort on our
farms to supply our daily bread. As
matter of national security, we dc
not want to become a food importing
nation, particularly of the staples
such as wheat, meat, potatoes, butter
etc. We do not want to be placed il
the position England was during tht
late war as regards food supplies. A
the years go by we will need bette

SEATTLE WOMAN is KILLED.!
A GOOD IDEA
GONE WRONG
EDITORIAL

THE SPIRIT actuating the Associated Students of
l. the University of Washington in their efforts to
develop the artistic side of Seattle by bringing great
singers and eshetic attractions to the Stadium and
selling them at popular prices is surely highly COM
mendabe.
However The Star believes there are elements that
are bound to work against practical realization of the
ambltion-that may even work directly contrary TO
the laudable purpose-so long the Stadium must be
used for the attractions.
This suspicion had its inception after witnessing the
Denishawn dancers at the Stadium few weeks ago.
1t has grown measurably since last night, when
Madame Schumann-Iienk sang there.
In these two instances Seattle people given
the opportunity to the worlds greatest opponents
of artistic dancing and to hear the worlds greatest
contralto The price was right and the purpose was
right.
Yet the great audiences only partly and only
partly heard.
This is no fault of the students. While the Stadium
fund would profit to extent it can be truthfully
said that this factor not influential in bringing
the artists here. The students sincerely trying
TO create an artistic background for Seattle
