FARMER WILLING TO
UU Hid dHAKb SAT THOSE OF COUNTY
JOHN MOSTEiR I wish to give you a reply regarding plans on the farm Ir 1920 of . increased production.
elimination of "the high cost of living." and the "day light saving
law."
It should be plain to see, or undoubt
edly la plainly seen, that the increase
of production, in spite the labor saving machinery, will be a burden on the farmers, since so much of the farm help has been lured to the cities by the extraordinary high wages and thort working days, with which the farmer can't compete; so there, it's
plain that he must till fewer acres, or;
and he will deliver goods regardless of labor shortage even if it takes 10 or 15 hours a day. Give u a different administration. .
Minister Saccambs at Home in Oxford OXFORD, O., Feb. 20. Rev. William J. Frazer, D. D.,- pastor of the First Presbyterian church, ,died yesterday afternoon at the manse, of heart trouble folowing an illness of a few days. Dr. Fraxer was 67 years of age. and
came here in April, 1907, from Elkhart
Ind. - Just two weeks ago yesterday he
buried his estimable wife, ebe having
died at the Deaconess hospital, Cincinnati, folowing an operation. The body will be taken to Dr. Frazer's old
home, Paoli, Ind., for burial. GEORGE MEYER DEAD

only half tend the large acreage, con
sequently produce less. The farmer is surely willing to aseu me his part, to meet problems threatening the welfare of his country, tut can't alone eliminate the "high cost of living," by increased production with so much decrease in help which load3 a burden on him greater than ever. Work Is Necessary. If the city people in general, would work, really work, nearly so much as the average farmer, they would accomplish much more with less help, and their expenses . would be. not so great, as -when idle so much of the time. This too, might help eliminate the "high cost of living." The day light savings law, when in effect, is of no savings to toe, but only at my expense,. especially when I have laborers employed. In summer, when the dew is on, it's often impossible to
work so early, so I must wait till condi1lons are favorable, but then with the o'tast time" I must allow those laborrs that hour at night regardless of
whether we worked in the early morning or not, consequently. I lose that hour or the good will of the laborer. Would it not be less confusing to let the city people work an hour earlier without changing the clock, to only cause other Inconveniences who have no use of such a changing the clocks? E. E. McGREW With the price on farm products as It is now, I don't think the farmers will produce as much as they did last year. I think the people expect too much money for the amount of hours they labor. What we need is lonser work days to produce the desired amount, of provision. CHARLES MYERS I am not in fnvnr nf the dav Ueht saving plan. It
does not benefit the farmer in any way. I believe the reason why the rrice of farm products Is not as high In comparison with the manufactured Foods, is because the farmers are not well enough organized, and do not set their prices as the manufacturers do. If the farmers were organized as the manufacturers are. the people would have to pay the farmer his price as the farmer has to pay for his manufactured goods.
JOHN MACY What the rarmer should do is very plain to me. Intense farming should be the slogan for the farmers a3 it was during the world war. Our profits may not be so great, but the world needs the food. Todly stand by and wait to see what the: senate will do would be foolish farming. E. R. KEMP My acreage of wheat and corn this year will be slightly less than last year, but about equal to the average. The difference is causedy vrotation of crops in fields of varying fizes. Other products will be equal to ' the average of other years. Increased demand because of the war caused nrlres to be raised. Wages became
higher for the same reason. Increased ivncpn caused greater demsfnd and
choTer hours decreased production
This caused still higher prices. To remedy, avoid harmful legislation
urA allow natrual readjustment.
E. M. JOHN All farmers lost, as I
riid. on their 1919 hogs. We fed high
ried feed to them and lost. There
is too much difference in the price of
fppd ajid the price of hogs. We do
not want to get bit. twice at the same
thing. Dealers tell us they have their money in feed and they are going to net it out. Therefore, the hog raiser
will have to feed hogs at a loss or not
eed them. Therefore, it will be not
feed. Give the farmer a square deal
