Military Training Camp:
1 -
Ì R
Young men from all over the country are en
listing in thecitizens* military training camps which
will again be conducted during the coming summer.
Here is a form of military preparedness that ought
to appeal to all elementa It is not forced on any
families or boys who do not care for it, and yet it
provides that nucleus of a military organization
that is one of the essentials of safety.
Before many years, a nation that goes to war
will be regarded as an outlaw, and its position in
the human family will be about like that of the
man who takes a gbh and holds ify his townspeople
on the streets.
But while the outlook for this more peaceful
status is improving little by little, yet the world
is still more or less of an armed camp. The idea
is still held by some statesmen, that nations can
advance in prosperity and welfare by making war
on their neighbors. So long as some leading states
men and; diplomats take that point of view, the
time when war shall be outlawed is not yet cldarly
in sight
While we aré still waiting for this better dav,
our country must still be prepared for the possibil
ity of conflict. No army is going to invade our
great country, but there is still a chance that some
power will so grossly violate the rights of Ameri
can citizens and so set out to dominate the world-
that some kind of military action to restrain such
! an aggressive }people may be called for.
If that time ever comes, the power of the
American forces will he enormously increased by
• having trained a group of young men so that they
know something of military tactics. The young men
.'who attended these camps will perform a*patriotic
’ service, and in addition will have a useful and
' healthful vacation that will greatly add to theii
; ability to perform every day work.

The Des Moines Register reports- that a Boston
firm with $1,000,000 capital is engaged in renting
and managing over 20 farms owned by eastern in
terests in Iowa. Movements are said to be under way
in many leading cities, for the purpose of operating
western farms on a large scale.
In most of the industries, we see quantity pro
duction and a great deal of absorption of small
concerns by big ones, and a general tendency to do
-business on a bigger scale.
But farming has constituted an exception to
this tendency, and most of the farms are still run
in a small independent way by owners or renters.
Some have always claimed that an economy could
be made by combining farms, as factory plants are
combined and doing the work on a quantity pro
duction basis, according to the most modern methods
and scientific ideas.
It has commonly been held that such plans
would nqt become general in farming, on the theory
that in the great majority of cases- the individual
farm owner would put more interest and determina
tion into tilling his own acres, than people will put
in if they are simply working for someone else.
Automobiles and motorized machinery may have
some tendency to promote combination of farms.
The manager of a group of farms can get
around quickly now, to all the properties under liis
oversight, and keep in dose touch with the work
men on each one of them, and modern machinery
would help large scale production. But men will
.work very hard on properties that belong to them
¡individually, and where they feel a personal attach
ment to the soil. The manager of a group of farms
•will have to do some hustling to keep up with
-the competition of the independent producer.
