Strong Message To Farmers
One of ¿the ablest and most pract­
ical talks on farm ing was heard last
Sunday over the radio from the lips
o f T. D. Campbell, the most exten­
sive individual farm er in the United
States, owning and operating over
fifty thousand acres.
I t is to be
hoped th a t his message was caught
in the homes of farm ers everyw here,
as it conveyed in language terse and
easily understood, the difficulties
faced by agriculture and illustrated
some of the inequalities which ought
to be adjusted through legislation.
Among those, the most prom inent and
u n ju st is the g re a t toll th a t is taken
out along the path from the producer
to the consumer. Farm ers should re ­
quest a repitition of th a t address by
Mr. Campbell in order th a t there may
be a more universal “ listenihg in.’r
