The salient -point it exclusively had to do with the city. Not the farm, mind you with "Muscle in the saddle." For dad and the boys of a half century ago had noth ing but a stumpy 160 acres, a pair of oxen and willine dis positions. But they fed the nation. Then Yankee brains got busy. Today we have the tractor, the riding plow, haystacker, gas engines, electric light plants, telephone and the "henry." Not so bad and less lifting muscle needed. Sounds pretty soft, eh? Well it isn't even yet. There's the daylight saving law during the war, high cost of farm labor, of seed, fertilizer, machinery, live stock and staples, so by all means let "Muscle ride the saddle" in the city. Beacuse, when the show-down k over maybe the statement from the farmer "that his selling market offers less in return on the combined investment than Liberty tfonas, will no longer be greeted with a knowing wink tjlnces ec.
