THE WINDER NEWS
CONTENTING
OUR FARMERS
The census of 1920 showed that over
50 per cent of the people in the United
States are city dwellers. This Is an
alarming fact, because of the depen
dence of the world on the farmer. Why
does the farmer leave the farm and go
to the city?
1. Because of the poor educational
advantages. Many of our country
schools are a disgrace to the communi
ty, because of the unqualified teachers
and poor equipment found there. Rath
er than submit to these conditions and
allow his children to grow up in ig
norance he pulls up and leaves the
farm, to seek more refined influences.
2. He leaves the farm because of the
strenuous life produced from the lack
of modern conveniences. Ills wife
grows old before her time as a result
of the hard life she is forced to endure.
3. The farmer forsakes the farm be
cause he is unable to get a living price
for his products. Why actually, he has
to sell those products for less than it
cost him to producet them.
How are we going to stop our farmers
from flocking to the city—a movement
which not only often impoverish>s the
farmef, but impoverishes our nation?
This may be done by making life in
the country so attractive that he will
not want to leave the farm.
To bring this reformation about he
must have a letter home, which must
be beautiful and sanitary. Many of our
country homes are built without any
thought to beautify o sanitation —
when a little careful planning and paint
would add greatly to their beauty and
attractiveness.
Again, the farm home must have
modern lights, washing machines, iron,
vacuum cleaners running water, etc.

cilitate form labor.
An important factor for the improve
ment of the farmer is better roads. By
this means he can easily transport his
products to market. There Is nothing
which unite's different communities as
do good roads.
This leads us to the next considera
tion for the farmer, which is the con
solidated school. The fact that so
many consolidated schools have been
successful proves without doubt that
the best educational advantages cart
be enjoyed by the country as well as
the city.
Resulting from the higher education
al standards it follows that better pre
pared spiritual leaders for our country
churches can be obtained. Many of the
country churches are very weak be
cause of the lack of competent leaders.
The farmers of to-day have wonder
ful advantages of learning improved
methods of fanning. Our ngrieulturaol

colleges and schools have helped in a
large measure to distribute this im
portant knowledge. In addition to this
our government Is helping the farmer
by means of experiment stations and
county agricultural agents, which help
to solve the farmers problems. The
modern farmer, if he takes advantage
of all opportunities offered, should make
a success of his vocation.
No part of the farm life is so ur
gently needed or more sadly neglected
than the lack of proper recreational
advantages. Leisure and recreation
are just as essential to the proper
development of character as anything
else.
Under these improved condition*
who can picture a more ideal life than
life on the farm? When these things
are brought to farm life and not until
then, will the farmer stop seeking the
city.
Then let us do what we can to Im
prove our farm homes.
