The fact D that the ten dency toward concentration of popu latlou in the cliica ia a tendency that ought to be restrained Country life ought to be made more oomlortabie and attractive. Thu pursuit of agriculture, the profession ot farming to-day. may well attract the muutal and manual activity of men of the highest education, of tbe high est cultuie, of the highest ambition. It was in these words that 1’aesideot Taft, In the course of his famous •’awing around the circle,” addressed tbe people at Wilmington, North Carolina. With the faculty ol all pub lie men for touching upon aomethlug locally of vital Interest, he picked out subject that Is very near tbe hearts of tbe great rural population He w as following the lead of his stream u* predecessor iu office, who focussed public atcntlon upon tbe farm problem less than a year ago, when be appoin ted a commission to investigate and report u|>on conditions of country life. In the opinion of many, Mr. 'Taft, In again awakening the farm life prob lem, has "bit the nail on the head,” How pi keep the boy on the farm— ibis is but one phase of the question that has so long occupied the attention of men In pub ie and private life. Th movement to the city of boys born and bred lu the country has always been viewed with considerable alarm. Such a movement if it became too general would result In two great evils, over crowding in oily slums, and lowering tbe standard ol work on tbe farms. Wbat’a to be done? If young peo ple are discontented al home, and think more opportunities are to be bad in the cities; if they find farm work a drudgery and the soc'al life of the count)y Irksome tad monotonous, la here not aom i^qaMWd'oT discontent would aeem to be the beat solution It may he recor ded here that so successful have been effo-ts to make life on tbe larrua more profitable and attractive that danger of any serious exodus to tbe cities is a thing of tbe past. The farms to-dav have many advan tages that a generation ago were dot known. Most of them are reached by the rural mail, the good roads move ment has spread wonderfully, newspa pers and farm journals have extended their educative Influence, and the ru ral telephone has organized the great Dody of farmers and brought them to a better knowledge of each other. This one agency—the telephone—has done more, perhaps, than anything else to promote the business and home welfare Of till thfe farmers. Through all tbe great mediums of publicity the truths concerning its power for good have been told to the country popula tion The Western Electric Company, tbe largest manufacturer of telephones in tbe world, distributed Instructive literature ou the farm telephone sub ject throughout the rural district*. Farriiers rtefe shown how easily rtoral lines are const fueled, and hort gtenf ft return aucb a line gives when viewed only fioni the standpoint of an invest ’ meut. Fof not only doea a rural telephone pay; there are Items when its presence comers a benefit that crtfild never bv gauged in terms of dollars and Cents. For Instance, when a physician of ft yeterlnary U wanted In a hurry, the telephone Is the Only reliable and a quickef than lightning messenger. The telephone really increases the ef ficiency of the farms. President Taft IS merely emfpfWssDlng the stand of S!f; Roosevelt, who said i HW tliW to MAIL Lesson touiftitt bv history, it Is that the permanent great ness of any state most depend tnorff ffpo’h Its cofintry population than upon anytbfiig else.
