men complain of the high cost oJ
living while they live high and insisi
upon an income which will enabh
them to support their families ir

work eight hours a day for ive anc
a days in the week and complair

produced by the fanner and his family
working about twelve hours pei

t and so un. The town children go to
> school nine months in the year and
do nothing during the mornings and
i evenings and tfcree vacation months.
However, in spite of these .facts,
I there is a strong movement to greatly
reduce the price of farm products.
Farmers pf this country should
thoroughly organize and demand a
sufficient price for their products to
enable them to enjoy the same educational
advantages and the same
comforts and luxuries enjoyed by
the town and city man. Furthermore,
the farmer and his family should
not be required to work longer hours
than the town and city man works. {
In other words, all tariffs and price- j
fixing commissions should treat every |
phase of production and distribution !
impartially, and the farmers will not J
complain.?The Progressive Farmer. '
