The try life? g 5 the last tc The New York Outlook replics to the questions in its current issue and its article, which is reproduced in full below, at once takes rank as a most enlightened and able contribution.to a great subject, It says:â€" We do â€"not purpose to try to answer *hese questions here. Difficring condiâ€" tions in different licalities wil} necesâ€" sarily evoke ‘diffcring replies. The farâ€" mer ‘of New Hampshire or New Nork is affected by social and ecconomic inâ€" fluences «quite unlike those _ which shape the affairs of the farmer in Nebréska or Texas. _ it is therefore ‘impossible to frame & complete.set of answers to the foregoing â€" questions which shall be uniformly applicable to every agricultural community in the United States. If, however, _ the €Commission does nothing clse but o #urn the attention of both farmer and monâ€"farmer to the importance of conâ€" sidering agriculture in a _ scientific spirit and with an open mind, it will ‘have amply fulfilled its mission. Bu: it will, of course, do more than this, it will collect a mass of statistics and expert opinion of great practical value in determining what methotls the peoâ€" ple and the Government of the counâ€" try may adopt to strengthen and deâ€" â€"velop the social, economic, and poli tical usefulness of the American farm The old saying, ‘"The Lord helps those who help themselves," is quitc as true of farmers as of any other group of citizens. In details the far &r must work out his own salva on. _ Neither the Government nor any commission of the Government wan decide for each farmer when or how he is to hatch chickens or breed pigs or graft apple tr=s or grow mspatagus or harvest foits Lushels of wheat to the acre. But we _ think there are at least four geneal methâ€" ols of universal application in â€" the fortyâ€"six States of the Union by proâ€" moting which the people and the Gov ermment may promote the welfare of the {armer and the development _ of American .agriculture. $A, Educate the Nonâ€"Farming Classps. â€"In our judgment the chicf obstacle #hat the American farmer has to conâ€" %end with toâ€"day is that the banker, #he merchant, the manufacturer, th Jawyer, the doctor, the minister, the professor, the artist, the | legislator, the editor: know too little about and his work. We the > and strength of the " XUnited tes too much by its rich. ks , SÂ¥# enormons factories, its is dj \& United States defies thé imagination to Much has been done in recent years to improve the agricultural colleges of the various States. Some of them have attained a state of very high scientific efficiency. But these colleges are for exports, and not _ for the masses. To trust to them alone for the education of the‘ farming class is as if we should trust to the medical schools ofâ€"the country to give schoolâ€" boys and schoolâ€"girls _ the training they need in physiology and hygiene. EÂ¥eiy district school teacher should be required to know something about the history ol agriculture . and its modern progress, and should be able o impart this knowledge to the puâ€" pils. Every â€" district _ schoolâ€"house should have a garden connected with it, and every feacher shouldâ€"be _ reâ€" quired to know enough _ about _ the srowing of vegctables. fruits, _ and quired to know cnough _ about the growing of vegctables, fruits, _ and {lowers to interest ahd instruct the children in some phases of . garden Aprk. The Outlook would be among the last to take away from any child the opportunity to leatn all it can of history, language, Kterature, and abâ€" stract science; but the introduction of practical clementary agriculture into our public schools would . stimulate and, not minimize interest in . purely literary studies. . The existing individualism of _ the farmers is their greatest economic disâ€" advantage, as ‘the existing organizaâ€" tion of trade workers is their greatâ€" est economic advantage. If the farmâ€" ers world combine in some . sort . of joint stock corporations or â€" mutual associations, and employ their own distributing or selling agent,â€"â€" they could get at least a fair division of: the profits, the lion‘s share of which now goes, in many farming industries, to the middlemen. The farmer _ of Orange County, New York, receives two cents a quart for milk for which the consumer pays in New York City, sixty miles away, cight cents _ a quart. Seventyâ€"five per cent. of a product is a disproportionate amount for the producer and the consumer to pay to the distributor. Last _ July Mr. N. 0. Nelson, one of the leaders in the coâ€"operative movement in this country, gave some account of the orogress of Rural Coâ€"operation in the West. In Denmark and Belgium, and to some extent in Ireland, coâ€"operaâ€" tion has revolutionized the condition of the farmers. Tne movement ought to be encouraged and directed along the right lines in this country by all those who desire the welfare of ~Amâ€" crican agriculiture. 24 3. Encourage Rural Coâ€"operation 4. Improve the Means of Interâ€" . Farm Communication. Educate the Farming Class t! h compreâ€" nities, and out of that a sense of soâ€" cial obligation. Farming tends _ to isolation, and isolation to . a solfâ€" centered individualism. It is not alâ€" together visionary to imagine Athat good roads, the more general use of automobiles, _ and the extension â€" of rural trolleys may some time ,make it possible for the farmers to live in groupsâ€"small villages and hamletsâ€" and go to their farms as in _ the cities the merchants go _ to _ their stores or the lawyers to their offices. The conclusion of it all is that what will most help the farmer is more educationâ€"social, industrial and politicalâ€"of all the people. The creaâ€" tion of the Commission on Country Life is an important step in the, dirâ€" ection of stimulating a desire for such education and of establishing the lines along which it should lead.
