Too Many Farmers a Detriment Morrow County Extension Service New.) Too many people on farms result in an exceaa of farm product sold at n n rem une rati ve p rices, w h ich In turn has a tnedenrjr to hold down the standard of living; in the country and bl.ght the tires of the growing; boys and firla on the farms, declares Dr. H. C. Taylor, chief of the Bureau of Agricultural Economics, United States Lfpartment of Agriculture, "When the movement from country to city poos on at s sufficiently rapid rHte there will not be a su-n!us of farmers ar.d. one year with another, farm prices will be adequate to main tain the desired standard of living on farms in rural communities. ' Unless farmers insist upon a satis "actory standard of living and with draw from agriculture when they art not sbiel to maintain this Hiving standard, prices for farm products adequate to provide such a standard of living cannot be hoped for. "In approximately 7 per cen of those engraped in gainful occupa tions in the United States were in agriculture. The percentage engaged in agriculture in 1920 was 26. This movement of country to city went on gradually throughout one hundred years, but between 19 10 and 1920 the movement was more rapid than in any period since 1S70. The proportion of those v-ainfully occupied who are engaged in agri culture will doubtess be further re duced in the United States, but even when final perfection has been reached in the form of labor saving machinery there will continue to be a movement of population from coun try to city as long as the birth rate in the country is higher than in the cities. "This movement, within proper lim its, should be looked upon as desir able. Without the movement from country to city we would have en tirely too many people engaged in agriculture and farm prices would be even lower than they are. Cities would be lacking labor and the dis parity between the purchasing power of farm products and other products would be even worse than it has been in recent years. "The danger in the movement is that the process will be selective, taking the best stock from the rural community and leaving the weaker elements of the population on the farms to the detriment not only of agrciulture, but of the nation at a whole. The movement should oper ate in such a way as to leave in the country those elements of our rural population best suited to an efficient type of fanning, a higher standard of Living on the farm and in the rural community, and a standard of rural citizenship commensurate with the needs of our democracy. d rated lime.

FRYE I Un-superstitious pedestrians often do this Proving that a post can divide two people without splitting their friendship. In the same way experienced motorists have proved to their complete satisfaction that Zerolene, a western oil, will lubricate the modem automobile engine as well or a little better than any oil they can buy, although it costs less than eastern lubricants. The anti-western oil superstition succumbs Jo experience Zerolene is successfully lubricating more cars in the Pacific Coast states than any other oil made low and high priced cars alike. The most advanced refining process is this Com pany's patented high-vacuum process, during the use of which Zerolene is submitted to 15 positive checks for quality. Zerolene's special filtration through 40 tons of Florida Fuller's Earth gives you an oil of absolute purity a better oil even if it does cost lessl Less carbon better fuel mileage Zerolene will increase the power and gaso line mileage of your car, reduce carbon ac cumulation in the, cylinders and lengthen the working life of the engine. Why pay tribute to a superstition? Insist on Zerolene ask for it by name. Get the Facts! A series of independent and impartial reports showing the experience of large users with Zerolene has been collected in our booklet, "Why Pay Tribute to a Superstition?"
