and plaea It aa an Industry la tha

for the future.
Tou men are thoroughly familiar
with tha distressing details of pres-
- ant . conditions in - tha agricultural .
community, Tha whole country baa
an acuta concern .with tha condi
tions and the problems which you
are met to consider. It is a truly
national Interest and not entitled to
ba regarded as primarily tha con
cern of either a class or a section.
OLDEST OF I9DCSTBIES
Agriculture la tha oldest and most
elemental of industries. Every other
activity to intimately related to and
largely dependent upon It! It is tha
first Industry to which society
makes appeal in every period of dis
tress and difficulty. When war is
precipitated, tha first demand is
made on the farmer that ha will
produce tha wherewithal for both
combatants and tha civil population
to ba fed. and In largo part also to
be clothed and equipped.
. Even in our own times and under
tha moat modem aad enlightened es
tablishments the soil haa continued
to enjoy leas liberal institutions for
Its encouragement and promotion
than many other forma ef Industry.
Commerce aad raanvfacturtng have
beea afforded ample financial fa
cilities for their encouragement and
expansion, while agriculture, on tha
whole, haa tagged behind. The mer
chant, the manufacturer, the great
instruments of public transporta
tion, have been provided methods by
which they enlist necessary capital
- more readily than does tha farmer.
MORTGAGE FOR jniCaJlCE
Tha great industrial corporation
sella Its bonds In order to get what
we call its fixed or 'plant capital.
Just as the farmer sells a mortgage
on hia land in order to get at least
a large part of his fixed or plant
capital. I am not commending the
bonding or mortgage system of cap
italisation, rather only recognising
a fact.. But there, in large part,
the analogy ends. Both the manu
' faeturer and tha fanner still require
provision of working capital . The
manufacturer," whose turnover Is
rapid, finds that in the seasons
when he needs unusual amounts of
working capital he can go 'to the
bank and borrow on short term -
notes. Ills turnover Is rapid and
' tha money will com back In time
to meet his short term obligations.
The merchant finances his opera
tions n the same way. But the
farmer is in a different case. Hia
turnover period is a long one, his
annual production is small compared
to the amount of Investment, for
-.almost any crop tha turnover period
Is at least a year; for livestock It
may require two or three yeare for
a single turnover., .Yet the farmer
Is compelled. If he borrows his work
ing capital, to borrow for short
periods, to renew his paper several
times before his turnover Is possi
ble and to take the chance that if
he Is called upon untimely to pay
off his notes he may bo compelled
to sacrifice growing crops or un
finished livestock Obviously the

fanner needs to have : provisions, "

Tha need of better financial' fa
cfliUes for the farmer must Jxi an-
parent Joa the most casual consid
eration of tha profound divergence
: between methods of financing; ag
riculture and other industries. ,4 The
farmer who owns, his farm is capi
talist, executive and laborer ail In
one. Aa capitalist he earns the
smaller return on his investment. As '
executive he is little paid and aa
laborer ha - is; greatly underpaid pk
comparison to labor la other ocupa-
tlons. .- ? - . . - - . -.
In the matter of what may be
called fixed investment capital, the
. disadvantage of - the farmer so
strongly Impressed public opinion
that a few years ago the -federal farm -loan
board was established to afford
better supplies of capital for plant
Investment and to Insure moderate
Interest rates. But while tutquea-
, tionably farm finance has benefited,
tha board, has this far not extended
Its operations to the provision of
working capital for the farmer aa
- distinguished from : permanent In
vestment In the plant There should
be developed a thorough code of
law, and business . procedure, with
the proper machinery of finance,
through some agency to insure that
i the turnover capital shall be as
generously supplied to the farmer
and on as reasonable terms as to
ether industries. An Industry, more
vital than any other, to- which
nearly half the nation's wealth is in
vested can be relied upon for good
. security and certain returns.
SUGGESTED BY PLAIT
The lines on "which financial sup
port of agriculture may be organ
ized are suggested In the plan of the
federal farm loan board and in those
rural finance societies which have
been so effective in some European
countries. The co-operative loan
ing associations of ' Europe have
been effective incentives to united
action by farmers and have led them
directly Into cooperation la both
production and marketing, which
have contributed greatly to the sta
bilization and prosperity of agri
culture. - T
It cannot be too strongly urged
that the farmer must be ready to
. help himself. This conference would
'.do .most lasting good. If It would
J find ways to Impress v the great
mass of farmers to avail themselves
of the best methods.
By this I mean that; in the last
analysis, legal action can do little
more than give the farmer -the
chance to organize and help him
self. Take: co-operative' marketing.
American farmers are asking for,
and it should be possible to, afford
them, ample provisions of law under
which they may carry on In co
operative fashion those business
operations which lend themselves to
that method and which, thus
handled, would bring advantage to
both the .farmer and his consuming
public.
FABXER MUST LEARN
' But when we shall have done this,
the farmers must become responsible
. for doing the rest They must learn
organization and the practical pro
ceedings of cooperation.
With proper financial support for
agriculture, and with instrumentali
ties for the collection and dissemina
tion of useful information, a group
of cooperative marketing organiza
tions would, be able to advise their
TO make tender, flaky, digestible biscuits,
use rich shortening; blend it well with
the flour; add water or milk thoroughly chilled;
form dough with as little handling as possible
and bake immediately in a hot oven.
Crisco makes especially delicious biscuits be
cause it works into the dough with little
handling and because it is the richest shorten
ing that can be made. It contains.no salt, no ,
moisture, no adulterants, 210 preservatives.
Only the choicest vegetable oils, carefully
selected and refined, go into its making.
Crisco is a standard product on which you can
rely anytime and anywhere. Set it in a cool
place and it will stay fresh until you need it.

No country as ao dependant upon

RAILROADS FJtSCIESTIFIC ...
: If broad-visionad statesmanship
' will establish fundamentally sound t
- policies - toward transportation, . the
present crisis will eoe day be re
garded as piece of good tertane
to the nation. To this time, rail
road construction, financing and op
eration have been unscientific and
devoid of proper oonsideraUoa for the
wider concerns of the community.
- To say thla is simply to admit a
fact which applies to practically
every railroad system in the world.
In America we have too long ne-.-glee
ted our waterways. We need a
practical plan of water resources for
both transportation and power. A '
large share of railway tonnage la
coal for railroad fuet The experi
ence of railway electrification dem-
, enstrates the possibility of reducing
this waste and increasing efficiency.
We may well begin very soeav te
consider plana to electrify our rail
ways. Waterway improvement rep.
resents not only the possibility of
expanding our transportation sys
tem, but also of producing hydro
electric power for its operations and
for the activities of widely diffused
industry.
I have spoken of the advantage
which Europe enjoys because of its
easy access to the sea. the cheapest
and surest transportation facility.
In our own country is presented one
of the world's most attractive op
portunities for extension of the sea
ways many hundred miles .inland.
POLICY MUST BS LIBERAL
This conference need have no fear
of unfortunate effects from the full
est development of national re
sources. A narrow view might dlc
L tate, in the present , agricultural
stress, antagonism to projects of
reclamation, rehabilitation and ex
tension of the agriculture area. To
the contrary, if agriculture is to
hold Its high place, there must be
the most liberal policy in extending
Its opportunity.
There -must be a new conception of
the farmer's place in social and eco
nomic schemes. The time is long past
when we may think of farming as
fitting for the man who is not
equipped for, or has somehow failed
at some other line of endeavor. The.
successful farmer of today, far from
being an untrained laborer, working
every day and every hour that sun
and weather permit 1s required to be
the most expert and particularly the
most versatile of artisans, executives
and business men. He must be a
good deal of an engineer to deal with
problems of draining, road building
and the like.
There is no business In which the
executive talents of the skilled organ
izer and manager are more absolute
ly necessary than in successful farm
ing, and this applies . alike to the
producing, the buying and the sell
ing phases of farming. Along with all
this, the farmer must have untiring
energy and a real love and enthusi
asm for his splendid profession. For
such I choose to call the vocation of
the farmer the most useful, and it
