that with the preparation now required for profession
al and business hfe-much longer than it was for
merly-the young man does not begin his active ca
reer until a later age than is wise"
Dr. Lowell claims that masters Of secondary
schools have often asserted that they could prepare
boys for college earlier II there was a demand for it.
Although a feeling seems to he gaining ground
that education is finished at too advanced an age, yet
3 considerable number Of parents whose sons are pre-
pared for college and pass their admission examination
t II. postponed their entrance for a year. This IL FL
nost always a mistake, DR.. Lowell claims. Students
Who enter college young are or the average better
scholars and incur less serious discipline than those
who are older.
a. secondary schools improve their courses and
colleges are able to give more mature instruction, the
graduate schools Of universities will have to transform
their methods 20 furnish the work sought by more
fully developed scholars, DR.. Lowell believes.
Commenting on this feature. Dr. Lowell said:
Chief among the obstacles to improve in graduate
srhools-as some deans Of these schools have per-
eeived-is the degree OF master OF arts. which has a
wider commercial value than any other. That we
must confer the masters degree on men who intend
to teach IL public is required by the universal de-
msnd for it."
pr. Lowell recommends that a different type Of
Instruction should he furnished in a separate school

ply degree. saying this would benefit those who are
looking for z career or productive scholarship"

Tie public has also in recest years been taking cog

The farm has always been the main source Of
wealth throughout our country. The very founders Of
America were for the most part farmers, and it was
colonies that the corner stone Of our greatness was
laid.
The men who titled the soil we're men Of vision, as
they are today. and il is merely stating a truism TO
say that if our farming element should materially
diminish in It's quality or deteriorate IN its integrity
then our country Is A whole viii cease to progress. II
is basic that the fabric Of our agriculture and the
high character or our rural pop lation should be
maintained, but it cannot Be done unless the farmer
gets a fair return for his efforts. We cannot drift
into, nor permit ourselves as a people to approve any
policy that disregards these principles.
Let Us examine the present situation in this ligh:.
It cannot he successfully denied that the farmer Of
today lags behind in prosperity. Something is wrong
at present in the relations Of agriculture to other i'm
portant industries. II Il evident that our policies do
not Justly meet the needs Of agriculture. if we desire
to preserve it as an important factor in our economic
life.
Il seems 70 me that the same breadth Of vision
that has advanced other industries must now be in
voked to aid the farmer. whose labors have so large
ly contributed To the general growth and welfare Of
the country. The fact is that we have encouraged
the increase Of agricultural production. but we have
not given consideration to the resulting competition
among farmers.
The wartime efforts Of the aEriculturists to subsist
our armies in the field and feed the armies and civilian
populations of the Allies were essential to allied sue
cess, and yet when the emergency had passed no meas
ures were taken 10 relieve him from the later effects
Of overproduction and competition. It must be reiter-
ated that TIE prosperity Of agriculture means pros
perity for the whole country.
