The back -to -the -soil movement is at its zenith. • Farming as a vocation lures city families by its promise of independence, comfort, and safety. It is highly profitable now, as compared to the condition twenty years ago, and without doubt people who are ordinarily capable can make the business pay. At the same time they have the assurance of: a comfortable home in peaceful surroundings. The rural environment is making a strong 'appeal to many who are tired of the cities. The desire of those wbo are think- ing on farm problems is that rural communities everywhere shall be wholesome, attractive, and cultured, and that each individual shall re- ceive a fair reward for the labor done and the capital invested.

Just what is meant by a profitable agriculture? Simply this: There shall be a reasonable return on the capital invested hi farming and a reasonable return for the farmer's labor and managerial ability. A farmer, like any other man in any other business, is entitled to what be earns, and what he earns should be sufficient to give Dim and his family some of the more essential conveniences of modern life, recreation and for study, -some time opportunity for education for his children.
