TKe Farm and The Farmer BY WILLIAM R. 8ANB0RN

here and there

H. S. DENNIS I am not in favor of the day light saving plan. GEO. W. DUTRO It would not effect me in the least if the cities adopt

such an ordinance. It would effect the dairy farmer should the -rural route train be also changed to suit such a plan. j . HENRY O. CRULLr I do not favor Jt because my children have to get in the school hack too early. It is hard on children. If the cities pass this plan, all schools will soon take it up. This plan takes farm hands to town. I have otter reasons as well as J. W. FERGUSON I am in favor of the day-light saving plan. FLOYD DAVIS If the cities use the day-light plan the stores and banks would open and close with that time, therefore, it would be the same. The farmers put in long hours enough without that time. Let the city folks get up one hour earlier. D. R. FUNK This plan has been tried. Found very confusing with farm labor conditions. Besides it effects the school hours to a disadvantage. JOE COPELAND I am in favor of .the only time to go by. Yes; it is a difference. I can't hire a hand and quit at 5 o'clock. LINDLEY W. BAKER If the cities put the plan into operation the farmers will have to purchase their goods through mail order houses, because they can't get to town in time to purchase them, nor can they compete with the city for latwr with such hours, and that will stop production. WILLIAM CLARK I object to the daylight saving plan as the groceries close in the middle of the afternoon

and the farmers have no chance to get their groceries in the evening. PR1NTES EDWARDS It will not make any difference to me. LEVI S. DILLING I cannot say too much against it, for the farmer, and nothing for it. It is a great loss to the farmer and no gain. The farmer works from sun to sun anyway. His hired help wants to quit at 5 o'clock. In haying, harvesting and threshing seasons it is too wet to do anything in the early morning. The evening is worth almost as much as the forenoon. He can not take in hay before 10 o'clock anyway. I have no objection to the factory starting an hour earlier if it is satisfactory to the parties concerned, but let the clock alone. If I wish to get up an hour earlier I can do it without changing the clock. J. M. BUNNELL I sure would make a difference in my trading point if I could find a town that would not adopt such a runaway time. I was in hopes that this was settled for all time to come. I am opposed to it from all sides. J. E. BOND If the city adopts this plan the farmers can not get their supplies after their day's work is done. S. S. CLEVENGER The reason I am opposed to the plan is the shop hands quit at 5 o'clock and the farm

hands want to quit at the same time. In harvest time the dew Is on early and we can't commence until the dew goes off. God made the day, and man can't improve on his work. WILLIAM BURRIS The old time is fair to the farmer. The best work is done later in the day. Rest at the noon hour. RICHARD BROWN I am not in favor of advancing the time one hour, as farmers are governed by the sun and it makes a 40 minute difference. Not for our convenience. JOHN COYNE It is a detriment to the farmer. F. H. BACKHOFER I am in favor of anything that will makes things go for the best to the most people. As for the farmer, he puts in 12 to 16 hours a day any way in the busy season, in order to help feed the country at large. Sometimes it is hard to find the stores and banks closed bo early In the afternoon.

G. W. BENSON As a farmer I

stand absolutely against the saving law, for it is a direct hardship for the farmer. Let the cities have It, but not for us farmers. THEODORE DAVIS It is necessary . for me to do my trading in Richmond In the summer at an hour when the stores will be closed. Many farmers would have to make use of the mall order house for convenience. Also when the farmer uses city help it causes him inconvenience. If the factories want to adopt the'Nlayllght saving plan, I see no harm, but I nm absolutely against any business house closing its doors an hour earlier. J. A. CROSSON I am in favor of the plan. J. H. HELMS The divine plan suits us all right. It takes all the daylight there is for the farmers and then the

I am opposed to it

C. B. HALL If the shops want to begin an hour earlier they can do sd without chanKin the clock. When a

man comes to work for a farmer he

cannot do much while the dew is on the ground and just in the best part ol

the afternoon he is going to quit.

to me whatever.

WILL CROUCH As a farmer it makes it inconvenient for me, for when we have done a day's work and gone to

town to trade, we find half the stores are closed, and cannot see all of a picture show, B. T. CROUCH We farmers work by the sui and don't want to quit work in the middle of the afternoon in order to get to town before everything is closed. Most farmers save all the daylight without changing the time. JOHN R. BOYD A farmer is compelled to work by the sun. Whenever he wants to go anywhere, he must either neglect work or not go. Reasons a plenty! JESSE HENDERSON I am in favor of the plan. J. I. HELMS I have always been bitterly opposed to changing the time. It makes it hard to keep labor in the country. The idea of quitting the middle of the afternoon and of having

Ihree different times is radically

to it while it was in operation, while

the few that did caused confusion. If the city passed this ordinance it would cause much confusion as there would be such a difference in time. Quite a number of farmers observe sun time, others standard. Why not all observe sun time as of old and be sensible? A. J. DENNIS If the city people would work from daylight 'til 9 and 10 o'clock at night like the farmer has to do they might have something to growl about. W. S. FARLOW I have no objection to the cities having it, if they want it. FRANK E. HAY I do not see that it benefits he farmer as he works long days, making use of all the daylight

J. E. HILDEBRAND There is not and never was but one kind of time (Sun) and no law made by man on

earth will ever change it. The farmer

(that is if he is all the word implies)

does his work by :o other time, which means to him nearer 18 hours per day than 8, especially during the busy crop season. Now I have experienced loss in time on several occasions ny being greeted with "Bank Closed." Your so-called daylight saving and standard time is a menace to all

farmers

WALTER BURGESS It curtails production on farms. If cities pass

such an ordinance it affects the farmer

GENEVA, Feb. 9. Russians who

the farming community. It is not in

harmony with the laws of nature, besides taking things out of the hands of the Almighty. I think the noon hour should be observed the same as the morning and evening. JESSE BROOKS I do not think it would make any difference if the cities used the day light saving plan, but it is harcKfor the farmers to use it as it does not divide the day right, making

the afternoons too long, as the farmer j works by the sun as much as the time.

H. W. FAHIEN I am not in favor of the daylight saving plan for the country for a good many reasons, but it would be all right just for the cities. G. A. R. DICKSON In some respects it would inconvenience farmers, as farmers' days in the busy season are of ' necessity longer than city people, and country people would be obliged to quit work too early in order to get to town for evening entertainment or trading. It also tends to make farm hands dissatisfied as compared with their city brothers quitting time in summer. J. A. BICKNELL The only thing I
