For the nature of a thing is shown by the end which it is designed to serye. If it does not serve this end it is a failure, as for instance a watch which does not keep time. So man looking into himself and studying the component parts of his being, will find the witness in himself as to the end or pur pose for which he was created If he fail of this he becomes a missing of the mark, which is the literal meaning of the Greek word used mostly to denote sin, the wages of which is death.

There can’t be good business conditions under such a system. It is certain to tip it over—it is already doing it. Statistics are tedious, but they are very significant these days. In 1900 sixty of every one hun dred people lived on the farms, contented and happy. Today 60 of every hundred live in the cities and both the sixty and forty per cent are dissntisfied and rebellious. In New England, New York and Pennsylvania there are today 75,000 unoccupied farms, four and one-half million acres of formerly cultivated land aban doned. In the middle atlantic states there are 2,775,000 less acres of improved lands than there were in 1910. In the east north central states there are 16,000 less farms today than there were in 1910. In Indiana there are 10,000 less, in Illinois 14,000 less and 10,,000 less in Michigan. These figures are from the gov ernment census, they are facts. In Oregon thonsands of ranch ers haye left their farms during the past four years and thous ands more will leave the com ing year, unless conditions speed ily change. A Portland banker stated at a recent wheat meeting before the Portland Chamber of Commerce that 200 banks had failed in the Pacific northwest on account of failing farmers and cattlemen. There are comparatively few middle handling ¿agencies that are not taking the profits that should go to the producers and the lower prices that should go to the consumer. These middle agencies, not only in agriculture but in manusacturing industries, are holding up national prosper ity to a large extent by their profit tolls. From both producers and con sumers should come organizati n to control production from the farm to the retailer. It would not be a formidable undertaking if they would act together and enough of them act. With pro duction, transportation and mar keting controlled, these large middle profits and expenses could be eliminated, or retained by the producers and consum ers in cooperation. And if they were so retained and divided, there would be prosperity in ag riculture and contentment in la bor. Two dollars’ profit added to one Dollar’s worth of goods is what ails this country.
