CROPS DECREASE, POPULACE GROWS AND
Widespread Movement Prom Farms to
Reversal of Order Held
BY MADISON C. PETERS
To lower the cost of living our ag
riculture must grow as rapidly as our
commerce and manufacturing. In
1911 our agricultural products were
worth less than $9,000,000,000, while
our manufactured products were
worth more than $20,000,000,000 and
our internal commerce was estimated
at $26,000,000,000.
We have 3,000,000 square miles of
territory 1,903,000,000 acres of land.
We have 878,000J500 acres of land
within our farms, 478,000,000 acres of
improved farm land; nearly half of
our total area is uninhabitated and un
productive. The widespread movement from the
farm to the cities and towns accounts
for the decline in the products of the
farm. The corn crop, of 1910 was
114,000,000 bushels less than that of
ten years before, it was grown on 14
per cent less land, 20 per cent less
product and 43 per cent greater value;
the apple crop was smaller by 27,
876,000 bushels, the wheat crop was
greater on account Of the better yield,
but the number of acres on which it
was grown was less b ymore than 8,
000,000 acres. "
People Outgrow Crops.
The people are growing faster than
the crops; the farmers are not raising
enough to feed the increasing millions
of consumers. New England produces
only one-tenth of its foodstuffs. In
1900 our population was less than 76,
000,000, in 1910 it was nearly 92,000,
000, an irtcrease of 16,000,000, but our
foodstuffs did not grow in proportion
to the number of our people.
For the production of all cereals,
fr every 1000 inhabitants, the acre-'
age fn 1910 was 341 less, the product :
9310 fewer bushels and the value :
$9460 greater than in 1900; 14 per!
cent less land, 16 per cenf less product
and 48 per cent greater value. For
orchard fruits the number of trees of
bearing age, for ev,ery 1000 people,
in 1910, as compared with 1900, was
1586 less, the product 446 bushels less,
the value $430 more; 36 per cent few
er trees, 16 per cent less fruit and 39
per cent greater value. For all crops,
for every 1000 inhabitants the' acre
age in 1910 was 342 acres less than In
1900; 9 per cent less land under cul
tivation and a product costing the con
sumer 51 per cent more. -
Decrease Crops Costly.
The decrease in crops required to
feed cattle accounts for the falling off
of livestock on the farms and partly
explains the high cost of meat. In
1910 the number of sheep-of shearing
age was 39.644,000; in 1900, 39,853,
000. In 1910, 72 per cent of the
sheep were raised west of the Mis
sissippi river and half of them in the
mountain states. The farmers of the
East, Middle West and South are go
ing out of the sheep business the
number of sheepgrowers decreased
132,000 or 20 "per cent; during the de-
cade every fifth man quit altogether.
In 1850 there was in the United
States almost one sheep for every citi
zen six or seven pounds of wool that
made three yards of cloth. In 1880,
there were seven sheep to every 10
persons. In 1890 six to every 10; in
1900 five, and in 1910 only four to 10
persons. In the decade meat cattle
decreased, 5,910,000 and swine, 4,682,
000 and as the number decreased the
value increased. Twelve of the older
Northern states show a falling off of
2,000,000 in the number of cattle, with
a corresponding decrease in the num
ber of sheep and swine. The decline
of the rural population means less pro
ducts of the farm which are necessary
for the feeding of animals, which lack
of food explains the shortage in cat
tle and the consequent high prices of
meat. '
Charity Preferred to Farming
Our people flock to the cities where
they would rather stay and starve than
go to the country and work.- While
the cities have thousands of strong
men holding down the park benches,
the crops in the country perish be
cause there are no men willing to
work; these men would rather depend
on charity in the city than help to
solve the crying need of our cities,
the production of more food stuffs.
The men who won't work, should "be
given by law this, alternative healthy
work, furnished by the city or a raw
hide and 15 minutes to take their
choice,
Parents everywhere are selling their
farms and crowd the cities to be near
the saloons, dance halls, gambling
halls and the movies. In this con
nection it is worthy of note that some
products of the farm have not de
creased barley, raised mainly for
breweries and distilleries, was grown
on 3,288,000 more acres in.J910 than
in 1900; this is greater by 53,709,000
bushels and the valuation by $50,826,
000. While our exports on food
stuffs and meats have declined, the
export on leaf tobacco increased with
the 10 years including 1912, 79,000,000
pounds. With the lessening of the
food supply, people resort to drink
and tobacco and we. drink more liquor
and smoke more tobacco than ever;
while food stuffs have gone up in an
aeroplane, whisky and tobacco are
kept within the reach of even the poor
so that while four times more cigar
ettes are used today than 10 years
ago, they cost about half what they
did then, and the glass of beer has
become a "schooner." So that while
THE COST OF LIVING
Cities and Towns Declared Cause of
to Be Need of Country.
we eat less because' it costs more,
we drink more because it costs less
and makes us forget the high cost of
living. .
Persons Should 'Stay on Farms.
If we cannot get the city people
back to the soil, we must make?coun
try life attractive enough to get those
now there to stay. Agriculture must
be kept in the very forefront of -our
industrial procession; it is the basic
industry and national giving to agri
culture is distributing benefits to other
industries. When the farmers pros
per tne spindles multiply, the ships
are well freighted and money is cur
rent. The failure of Congress to ad
journ is less hurtful to the country
than the failure of the crops would
have been. Our hope is in the soil
rather than in the statesman.
Of the $700,000,000 spent annually
to conduct this Government, scarcely
i per cent of our total appropriation
goes to aid our 6.400,000 farmers, the
41,000,000 who reside on our farms
and the 11,000,000 persons -more than
10 years old who work on those farms
to feed, clothe, educate and support
the people of our cities.
- Millions of dollars are expended an
nually for Federal buildings to beau
tify 'our cities and towns, add to the
comfort and conveniences of their in
habitants, but nothing to construct
public highways, and little, indeed, to
increase the comforts, promote the
conveniences and add to the profits
of our farmers.
Better Facilities Needed.
Our farmers must have better facil
ities for transportation, better bank
ing facilities, lower interest, with
their crops or lands as securities with
the National banks, better means of
communication more economical
methods of transporting and distrib-
uting the products to the consumer.
Good roads are essential to rural com
merce. We are behind all civilized
nations in public roads. The parcels
post will mean the extension of rural
commerce, through which the farms
will be built up, agriculture advanced
and consumers have cheaper food.
The absence of the graded schools
from the rural districts contributes to
the depopulation of our farms. One
of the most serious drawbacks to
country life is inferior educational ad
vantages. I would have the school
house open every night at civic and
recreation centers.
The social life of the farm must be
improved. The enrse of country life
is its isolation. Bridget explained her
preference for living in the city on
cold charity to plenty in' the country,
on the ground that "peoples is better
company than stumps."
. It seems impossible to drive the
poor from the cities, or coax them
with better pay. to settle in the coun
try they stay, starve, sicken and sink
in the city. The farmers' daughters

More Drudgery in City.
Our young men, unmindful of the
fact that the coming profession is ag
riculture and the new discovery the
riches of the soil, in their desire to
be among the multitude and to meet
life, leave the country for t"he tempta
tions and seductiveness of city life,
thinking "to make something of them
selves, often find the magnificent mis
ery and gilded poverty which exists
within the city walls, and the young
folks who might have been somebody
at home find the lonesomeness of liv
ing and moving among the millions
whose names even they do not know,
an isolation more peculiar than the
monotony that curses country life.
There is more drudgery in -the city
than in the country more nerve ex
haustion and consumption ' of vital
forces amidst the noise and confusion
of passing multitudes than amidst the
stillness of country life.
Surely the farmer today is better

independent and gets a better return
for his labor than the city toiler.
