By Peter Radford Lecturer National »rm*rs* Union. The economic distribution of farm product* is today the world’s greatest problem and the war, while It has brought it* hardship*, has clearly em­ phasized the importance .of distribu­ tion as a factor in American agricul­ ture and promises to give the farm­ ers the co-operation of the govern­ ment and the business men the solution of their marketing problem, This result will, In a measure, com. pensate us for- our war losses, for the business interest* and government have been in the main assisting al­ most exclusively on tile production side of agriculture. While the depart­ ment of agriculture has been dumping tons of literature on the farmer telling, him how to produce, the farmer has been dumping tons of products in*the nation's garbage can for want of a market. The World Will Never 8t*rve. At no time .Bince Adam., and Eve were driven from the Garden, of Eden have the inhabitants of thia world suffered, from lack of production, but the '.agencies for those pictures have lolled to obtain the indorsement Which the mayor insists upon. Most of the large manufacturers, however, consult the National Board before making, films over which any ques­ tion would arise' as to the possibility of indorsement. Those manufacturers who do not, and whose pictures have not passed the National Board, can­ not do business in Boston, In making the above statement,, Mr, Casey while speaking only for the city -of Boston, really voices the senti­ ment Pf ftH hl®w England, which, en­ forces the same standards.

Slight, variations in production have forced.a change in diet and one local­ ity has felt the pinch of want, wbito another surfeited, but the world as a whole has ever been a land of plenty. We now have less than one-tenth of the tillable' laid of the earth’s surface under cultivation, and we not only have thia surplus area to draw on but it is safe to estimate that in case of dire -necessity one-half the earth's population could at the present time knock their living out of the, trees, of the forest, gather it' from wild vines and. draw it from streams. No one should become alarmedr the world will never starve. The consumer has always feared that the producer would hot supply- him and his fright has found expres­ sion on the statute books of our states and nations and the farmer has been urged to produce recklessly and with­ out reference to a market, and regard­ less of the demands of the Consumer- Back to the Soil. „ The city people have been urging each other to move back to the farm, but very few of them have moved. We welcome our city cousins back to the soil and this earth’s surface con­ tains 19,092,1(50,00ft idle acres of till­ able land where they can make a living by tickling the earth-with-a forked stick, but we do not need them so'far as increasing production is con­ cerned; we now have ali theproducers WO oaa use. The city man has very erroneous ideas of agricultural condi­ tions. The commonly accepted theory that we are shorten production is all ,-wtonR Our journal increase in pro-1 f a !® m B.r exceeds that pi our in- j crease in population, ' ■ , The World as a Farm. j Taking the world as on* big farm, Wo find two billion acres of land1in cultivation, Of this amount there is ~ approximately 750,000,90ft acres on the Western and 1,260,000,000 acrek on the eastern hemisphere, in cultivation. This estimate, of course,,does not in- .: elude grazing land's, forests, etc,, where large quantities of meat are > produced.. The world’s annual crop approxi­ mates fifteen billion bushels ot ce­ reals, thirteen billion pounds of fibre and sixty-five million tons of meat. The average annual world crop for. the past five year*. Compared with the previous five years, {« as follows: Bast Half Previous Half drops— Decade, -Decade.

The gfiin in production far exceeds that ot our increase in population, and it Is safe to estimate that the farmer can easily increase production 25 per cent if a remunerative market can be found for the products.
