HE M1LPISS
The Local Paper Most UmtuI
Agency on the Farm Tho Prsst,
Pulpit and School a Trinity of
Influence That Must B
Utilized In Building
Agriculture.
By Peter Radford.
lecturer Niitleiiul Farmers)' I'liliin.
A broad campaign of publicity on
tho subject of rural life Is needed In
this state today to bring tho problems
of the farmers to tho forefront. Tho
city problems nro blazoned upon tho
front panes of the metropolitan dall
ies and echoed In the country press,
but the troubles of the fnrniers are
seldom told, except by thoso who
seek to profit by the story, and the
glitter of the package ofttlmes ob
scures tho substance. A searching In
vestigation Into the needs of tho
farmers will reveal many Inherent de
fects In our economic system that can
bo easily remedied when properly un
derstood onr Illuminated by the pow-
r of the press.
Tho rural -ires, the pulpit and tho
school are r trinity of powerful In-
Alienees lhat tho furmer must UtllUo
to their fntli st rnparlty before ho can
occupy a romtuamlliiK position In public
affulrs. Tlirm Klxautlc agencies are
, organized In every rural community
ami only n lt the patronage and co
operation of tho farmers to fully de
velop their energy and usefulness.
They are local forces working for
the best latere U of their respective
communities Their work Is to hulld
and their o'tjert Is to serve. They
prosper only throned the development
and prosperity of the community.
Every farmer In this statu should
subscribe for the local paper, as well
as farm periodicals uud such other
publications as he may find profitable,
but he hIhmiI 1, by nil menus, Biiliscrllie
for his lor:il paper, and no home
should be without It. Tho local paper
Is part of the. community life and the
"dltor understands the farmer's prob
lems. It Is the local press that will
study the local problems and through
Its columns deal with subjects of most
vital importance, to local life of tho
community.
A Noble Task.
In too ninny Instances tho country
papers mimic tho city press by giv
ing promlnenco to scandals, accidents
and political agitation. The new ru
ral civilization has placed upon tho
rural prews renewed responsibilities,
and cnlurKcd possibilities for useful
nesa. It cannot perform Its mission
to agriculture by recording the frail
ties, the mishaps and Inordinate am
bitions of Immunity, or by filling Its
columns with the echoes of thn strug
gles of busy streets, or by enrhuntlng
stories of city life which lure our
children from tho farm.
It has a higher and nobler task.
Too often the puces of the city dallies
bristle with tho strange of ambitious
men In their wild lust for power, and
many times tho flames of personal
conflict near tho tender buds of new
civilization and illuminate tho path
way to destruction. The rural press
is tho governing power of public senti
ment and must held steadfast to
principle nml keep tho ship of stnto
In the roadstead of progress. The
rural press can bent servo the Inter
ists of the fanners by applying Its
enorglcs to tho solution of problems
affecting tho local community, it
must stem the mighty life current
that Is moving from thn farm to tho
clt.es, sweeping before It a thousand
boys and girls per day. It has to deal
with the fundamental problems of
civilization at their fountain bend Its
mission is to direct srowth. teach ef
nclency and mold the Intellectual life
of the country, placing before thn pub
Mc tho dally problems or thn farmers
and giving first attention to thn leg
Islatlvo, cooperative, educational and
sod,,, e,.ds of tho agricultural classes
within its respective community.
