 AMiy Are We Not IJetter Orgaaiized? 



This is a question all farmers, 

 fruit growers, beemen and country 

 folk are asking themselves. The 

 country dweller deals with nature 

 and the city dweller with men, the 

 one has dealt with natural forces 

 and the other with social forces. 

 The farmer from his isolation has 

 an independence that is both his 

 strength and weakness; while the 

 city man from close proximity to 

 his fellows has become organized 

 and has developed social strength 

 a,nd advantages superior to the 

 country. That is why the cities are 

 drawing the best of the country to 

 themselves, because living is more 

 livable in the city than in the coun- 

 try. And this will not change until 

 the country is organized for better- 

 ment along manifold lines. The or- 

 ganized city now has the advantage 

 of the unorganized country. This.in 

 the face of the fact that the coun- 

 try has by far the greater advant- 

 ages naturally for right living. And 

 so we hear of the need for uplift- 

 ing the farmer, and the farmer in 

 his independence resents being up- 

 lifted — the farmer will not accept 

 charity. He is perfectly capable of 

 working his own uplift, in other 

 words organizing himself for all 

 lines of improvement. The indica- 

 tions are that organization for mar- 

 keting is one of the first steps the 

 country is taking. The farm is be- 

 ing recognized as a business enter- 

 prise without a sales organization. 

 The factory has its selling organi- 

 zation and sets the price on its pro-
