It the farmers do not make great co'or(
improvements it will not be for ma(*e
want of advisers. The three can (lue '
dida'e* tor president are all able ^ure
to tell them just what they need ma,,t
President Taft yes'erd;v, pro- one
claimed that the price toodstuiTs 5'10 a
could be grea'ly reduced by as- '
sisting the farmer to reduce the Hir
C09t of productiou. That is a 8un9e
very wise statement. He also ProP
calls for more farms and farmers ^ie 8<
Lie thinks co-operative farm ere ,ime'
dit and uniform state legislation ^Ul
will 8"lve the problem. Lie has a'
invited the governors of all the '?rm
states to a conference on this BePari
subject when they meet in De- Prl8ni
cember in their annual meeting dent i
He claims that the farmers of Ne8 01
the United States are operating 'ow ^
on borrowed capital nearly ^ie ^
equal to their products. By a
co-operative system the farmer 8^10w
would save half the interest he ^ecoi:
is now paying on this borrowed ^rora
money. The plan is practiced ^onp: 1
in Europe and the money is let
out at small interest, thus ena- t',e
bling the farmer to Becure best '^le ^
methods of raising his crops. UP'
AH that sounds well, but the '*ie 81
pay you go plan will be deci- ear'^
df U> better. The easier it ie we 8*
for many persons to borrow mon- ^ut *

ey, they will go in debt to the nVjt,'fcr
limit aud never try to get out so ^10 ^
long as they can borrow.
What the farmers need is not r^8^n2
so much credit, but the ability a ver
to live without it. In former of a'r
days farmers were the money len ^
.I |
ders of the country. Then there ne
was no cry of high priced food. at a'^
What we need today is the inde- ltfl
pendent farmer who makes his ^
own supplies and is never trou- 80,1 "
bled by debts hanging over him. v?'ca
Just at the close of the war wa8
hundreds of farmers lived hard, ^irovv
some of them lor weeks had no neafl.
meat of consequenca in their
homes. They pull"d through 1',e ('
and were getting on linelv till ^rom

the lien law and easy credit wom
fV A
came and then they began to go 0 lC '
backward. w
A negro ol that period was '^^'e
asked by a white friend how he ^p?ln
was getting on in the world. His evetl
reply was : '-Boss, I'se doing
monstrous well. I'se now living
on a lien I dun give on next t',e 81
year's crop." more
Hundreds of small white tar- l'c'e8
mers went down during that nse 1'
lien period and lost their farms even
, and homes. Easy credit was
bad lor them and it is bad for '
any people. Men or corpora- ^eing
tiony which lend money are
going to have ample security and Wo
demand the pay to the last cent.
The hope ol the farmer is to
get on a cash baeis and then Wood
high-priced food will not trouble Cham
him. Ho who has meat enough votes
to do him twelve months and pPjraa
corn in abundance, with a lew an ej(
fat yearlings for beef in his pasture,
