The Farmer
No farmer is perfect, but our
mistakes can be reduced to a
minimum by intelligent reading
and intense thinking.
When the farmer fully real
izes just how closely his interests
are bound up with those of his
neighbor and fellow-farmer, then
will farming become a profitable
business.
The highest duty of the state
and federal government is to
place agricultural education with
in the reach of all.
The prosperity of the farmer
is co-incident with the prosperity
of the state, and fundamentally
the well fare of the people de
pends upon the cultivation of the
soil.—Peter Radford, Lecturer

MUMS APPEAL
TO PRESIDENT
i
The Common Carriers Aek for
Relief—President Wilson Di
rects Attention of Public to
Their Needs.
The committee of railroad ex
ecutives, headed by Mr. Frank
Trumbull, representing thirty
five of the leading railroad sys
tems of the nation, recently pre
sented to President Wilson a
memorandum briefly reviewing
the difficulties now confronting
the railroads of the country and
asking for the co-operation of the
governmental authorities and the
public in supporting railroad
credits and recognizing an emer
gency which requires that the
railroads be given additional rev
enues.
The memorandum recites that
the European war has resulted in
general depression of business on
the American continent and in
the dislocation of credits at home
To Accomplish Your
PURPOSE
Of accumulating a competence for old
age comforts you need the help,, the assist
ance of a good banking connection.
In every man’s life there comes a time
when this help is very necessary to the
carrying out of his plans, the complete ful
fillment of bis purpose.
If you do not fully understand just how
or in what way an account at this bank
will help YOU. Come in and let us ex
plain how it can be used to build up YOUR
credit; how it will help YOU in many
other valuable ways.
and abroad. With' revenues de
creasing and interest rates in
creasing the transportation sys
tems of the country face a most
serious crisis and the memoran
dum is a strong presentation of
the candle burning at both endo
and the perils that must ultimate
ly attend such a conflagration
when the flames meet is apparent
to all. In their general discussion
the railroad representatives say
in part: “By reason of legisla
tion and regulation by the Fed
eral Government and the forty
eight states acting independently
of each other, as well as through
the action erf a strong public opin
ion, railroad expenses in recent
years have vastly increased. No
criticism is here made of the gen
eral theory of governmental regu
lation, but on the other hand, no
ingenuity can relieve the carriers
of expenses created thereby.”
President Wilson, in transmit
ting the memorandum of the rail
road presidents to the public,
characterizes it as “a lucid state
ment of plain truth." The Pres
ident recognizing the emergency
as extraordinary, continuing, said
in part:
"You ask me to call the atten
tion of the country to the imper
ative need that railway credits
he sustained and the railroads
helped in every possible way,
whether by private co-operative
effort or by the action, wherever
feasible of governmental agencies
and I am glad to do so because I
think the need very real.”
The conference was certainly a
fortunate one for the nation and
the President is to be congratu
lated for opening the jjate to a
new world of effort in which
everyone may co-operate.
There are many important
problems in our complex civili
zation that will yield to co-opera
tion which will not lend them
selves to arbitrary rulings of
commissions and financing rail
roads is one of them. The man
with the money is a factor that
cannot be eliminated from any
business transaction, and the
public is an interested party that
should always be consulted and
happily the President has invited
all to participate in the solution
of our railroad problems.
