When Industry pays’its bill it must make a sight draft upon agriculture for the amount, which ’ the farmer is compelled to honor without protest This check drawn upon agriculture may travel to' and fro^ over the highways of com­ merce; may build cities; girdle the globe with bands of steel; may search hidden treasures in the earth or ttaverae the skies, but in the end it will rest upon the soil. No dollar will remain suspended in midair; it is as certain to seek the' earth's surface' as an apple that falls from a tree; When a farmer buys’ a plow he pays the man who mined the metal, the woodinan who felled' the tree, the manufacturer who assembled the raw material and shaped It into an. ar­ ticle of usefulness, the railroad' that transported it and the dealer who sold him the goods. He pays, the wages of labor and capital employed in the - transaction as well as pays fibr the tools, machinery, buildings, etc.; used in the construction of the commodity and the same applies to all articles of use and diet of him­ self and those engaged in the sub­ sidiary lines of industry, There is no payroll in civilization that does not rest upon the back of the farmer. He must pay. the bills —all- of them, The to tal' value of the nation’s annual agricultural products is around $12,008,000,000/ and it is safe, to esti­ mate, that 95 cents on every dollar goes to meeting the expenses of sub­ sidiary industries. The farmer does not work more than thirty minutes per day for himself; the remaining thirteen hours of the day’s toil he devotes to meeting the payroll of the hired hands of agriculture, such' as the manufacturer,. railroad, commer­ cial and other servants.

It takes the corn crop, the most valuable In agriculture, , which sold last year fo r'$1,692,000,000, to pay off the employee of the railroads; the money derived from our annual sales of livestock of approximately $2,000,- 000,000, the yearly CQttomcrop, valued a t $920,009,000; the wheat crop, Which la worth $610,000,000, and the oat crop, that is worth $440,000,000, are required to meet th e annual pay­ roll of the manufacturers. The money derived from the remaining staple crops is used in meeting the payroll of the bankers, merchants, etc. After these obligations are paid, the fanner bad only a few1bunches of vegetables, some .fruit and poultry which' he cah sell and call the pro­ ceeds hlk Own'. t When, the farmer pays off his help he has very little left and to meet these tremendous payrolls he has been forced to mortgage homes, work Women In the field and Increase the hours of his labor. We are, there­ fore, compelled to call upon all In­ dustries dependent upon the farmers frfr subsistence to retrench in their expenditures and to cut off all tin necessary expenses. This course is absolutely necessary In order to avoid a reduction In wages, and we want, If possible, to retain the present wage scale paid railroad and all other in­ dustrial employes. We will devote this article to a discussion of unnecessary expenses and Whether required by law or per­ mitted by the managements of the Concerns, is wholly Immaterial. We want alt waste labor and extrava­ gance, of whatever character, cut out. We' will mention the full crew bill as Illustrating the character of unneces­ sary expenses to which we refer. Union Opposes "Full Crew” Bill, The Texas Farmers’ Union regis­ tered its opposition to this-character, of legislation at the last annual meet­ ing held in Fort Worth, Tex., August 4 , 1914, by resolution, which wo quote, as follows: "The matter of prime importance to the farmerai of this state is an ade­ quate and efficient.marketing system; and we recognize that such a system is impossible without adequate rail­ road facilities, embracing the greatest amount of service at the least pos­ sible cost We further recognize that the farmers and producers in the end pay approximately 95 per cent of the expenses of operating the railroads, and.it Is therefore to the interest of the producers that the expenses of the common carriers he as small as Is possible, consistent with good ser­ vice and safety. We, therefore, Call upon our law-makers, courts and juries to bear the foregoing facts in mind when dealing with the common carrions of this state, M* we do espe­ cially reaffirm the declarations of State m im * ******* m the so-called 'full-crew' bill the thirty-third legislature of Texas.” The former* of Missouri in the last election, by an overwhelming ma­ jority, swept this law off the statute book of that state, and it should come off of all statute books where I it appears and no legislature of this nation should pass such a law or similar legislation which requires un­ necessary expenditure*. The same rule applies to all regu­ latory measures which increase the expenses of industry without giving corresponding benefits to tbe public. There is outlines a body of men as­ sembled a t legislatures—and they have a right to be there—who, la their seal for rendering their fellow- associates a service, sometimes favor an increase in the expenses of in­ dustry without due regard for tbe men who bow their -backs to the summer’s sun to meet the payroll, bu t’ these committees; while making a record for themselves, rub the 'skin off the shoulders of the tarmer by urging the legislature to lay another burden upon his heavy load and under tbe lash of "be it enacted" goad him on, to pull and surge a t the traces of civil­ ization, no matter how he may sweat, foam and gall a t the, task When legislatures "cut a melon" for labor they hand the farmer a lemon. The farmers of the United States ' are not financially able to carry "dead heads" on their payrolls. Our'own hired hands are not paid unless wet have something for them to do and we are not willing to carry the hired help of dependent Industries unless there is work for them. ' We must therefore Insist upon the most rigid economy. Lefltelatlve House-Cleaning Needed. While the war Is on and there !s. a lull in business, we want all legisla­ tive bodies to take an inventory of the statute' books and'.wipe off all extravagant and useless laws. A good house-cleaning is. needed and econo­ mies can be instituted here- and there that will patch the clothes of indigent children, rest tired mothers and lift mortgages from ■despondent homes: Unnecessary workmen taken off- and useless expenses chopped down all along the line will add to the pros­ perity of tho farmer and encourage him in his mighty effort to feed and clothe the world. If any of these industries have sur­ plus employed we can use them jpn the farm.. We have no regu la r: Schedule of wages, but we pay good farm hands on an average of $1.59 per day of thirteen hours when they board themselves; work usually rpns about nine months of the year and .the three months dead time, they can-do the chores for their, board. If they prefer-to farm on their own account, there ' a re more than 14,000,000,000 acres of idle land on the earth’s sur­ face awaiting the magic touch of the plow. The compensation Is easily ob­ tainable -from Federal Agricultural Department statistics. The total average annual sales' of a farm in the continental United States atqpunts to $516.Q0; th e cost of operation is $340.00; leaving tbe farmer $176' per annum to live on and educate his family. There is fio occasion for the legis­ latures.making a position for surplus employes,of industry. Let them come "back to the soil” and share with US. tho prosperity, of the farm. When honepty Is merely a good policy it is a poor virtue. Lazy fanners are just as useless as dead ones and take up more room. When the soul communes with tho spirit of nature the back to the farm movement prevails. l « There are two kinds of farmers, ' One trieB to take alt the advice he hears and the ether won’t take any a t • " WANTED—One of -the large maga­ zine publishing houses desires to em­ ploy an active man or woman in this community to handle a special plan which has proven unusually profitable, Good opening for right party.
