In small towns we include all places with a popula­ tion under 10,000. . ; For many years the. trend has all been towards the cities.: Boys and girls are leaving the farms and the small towns and going to the cities. They are doing this because they believe they have better opportunities in the large cities. Bach year more and more business is done bjf the cities and less and less business in the small towns. Business is becoming more and more centralized. Everyone admits that farming is not now and has not been for years a profitable business. And farming is a business essential to the life of the nation, Land must be tilled, crops must be raised, live stock must be produced because people must be fed and clothed. But there is no incentive for anyone to go into the business, The work is hard and the profits small, There must be trading centers for the farmers. This ha3 been the reason why we have small towns all over the United States, Small towns can not prosper unless the farmers living near them are prosperous. Last year business conditions were most remarkable. Farmers and small town merchants had a hard time; business was bad. Large industrial concerns and merchants in the big cities enjoyed exceptionally good business, made large profits. Unusual prosperity in the cities, exception­ ally hard times in the country. This is the story of 1928, Is this condition going to continue? . If it does, there is but one answer, The trend to the cities will be even more rapid than it has been in the past. W e believe the condition is bad for; the nation, is bad even for the cities. , It should be remedied. But the only remedy probably, is a change in economic conditions. When farming is profitable and there are good business opportunities in the small towns then people will want to live on farms and in the small towns. How can this be brought about? The condition is worthy the thought and study of people .of both cities and the country. -^-Hillsboro News-Herald.
