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.

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,

The Home Is a Business
The many advantage sof the personal
checking account quickly appeal to women.
Paying all bills by checks eliminates all dis
cussions, as cancelled checks are receipts.
When the housewife has a checking ac
count, budgets are easier to keep; savings
are less subject to disturbance ; thrift is es
tablished as a practice ; and the home is plac
ed in its rightful position as a business con
ducted along business lines.
Open a checking account for your wife
at this bank. Give her the opportunity to
show you how efficient she can be. No doubt
she will show you a healthy cash balance at
