A special agent Of the revenue de partment from Omaha waa sent to make the Inquiry and the agent of the Adams Express company refused to give the de sired Information and further declined to permit the revenue agent to see his books.

REPORT ON COUNTRY LIFE (Continued from First rage ) problem of the farmers alone that I am discussing with them, but a problem which affecta every city as well as every farm In the country. It is a problem which the working farmers will have to solve for themselves; but It is a problem which also affects In only less degree all the lest of us, and therefore If we can render any help toward Its solution, It is not only our duly, but our interest to do so. Farmer 'a Welfare Vital. "The foregoing will, I hope, make it clear why I appointed a commission to consider problems of farm life which have hitherto had far too little attention, and the neglect of which haa not only held back life In the country, but also lowered the efficiency of the whole nation. The welfare of the farmer la of vital consequence to the welfare of the whole comrmSilty. The strengthening or country life, therefore. is tne strengthening of the whole nation "The commission has tried to help the farmers to see clearly their own problem and to see It as a whole; to distinguish clearly between what the government can do and what the farmers must do for them selves; and It. wishes to bring not only the farmers, but the nation as, a whole to realize that the growing of crops, though an essential part. Is only a part of country llfo. Crop growing la the essential found tlon; but It Is no less essential that the farmer ahall get an adequate return for what he grows; and It Is no less essential Indeed it is literally vital that lie and his wife and his children shall lead the right kind of life. "For this reason. It Is of the first Im portance that the United States Department ef Agriculture, through which as prime agent the ideas the commission stands for must reach the people, should become with out delay In fact a Department of Country Life, fitted to deal not only with crops, but also with all the larger aspects of life In the opon country. Three Needs of Country I.tfe. "From all that has been done and learned, three great general and immediate needs of country 1 If J stand out: "First, eneciive co-operation among farmers, to put them on the level with the organized interests with which they do business. "Second, a new -kind of schools In the country, which shall teach the children as much outdoors as Indoors and perhaps more, so that they will prepare for country life, and not as at present, mainly for life In town. "Third, better means of communication,. Including good roads and parcels post, wn:;i the country people are everywhere and rightly, unanimous In demanding. "To these may well be added bettor sanitation; for eaaily preventable diseases hold several millton country people in the slavery of continuous 111 health. "The commission points out, and I concur in the conclusion, that the most important a m 1 t M3 Fog SAFE WAY and other diseases is to avoid coffee and drink POSTUM in pkgs. help that the government, whether national or state, ran give la to show the people how to av about these tasks of organisa tion, edurstlori and communication with the and quickest results. This can be dona by the collection and spread or Information. One community can thus be Informed of what other communities have done. Such help by the people's government would lead to a comprehensive plan or organi sation, education and communication, and make the farming country better to live In, for Intellectual and social roaaona as well aa for purely agricultural reasons. "The government through tho Department or Agriculture doea not cultivate any man's farm for him. But It does put at his service useful knowledge that ho would not otherwise get. In the ssme wny the national and state governments' might put Into the people's hsnds the new and rlgh knowledge of school work. The task of maintaining and developing the schools would remain, as now, with the people themselves. ' Money for Commission, "The only recommendation I submit Is that an appropriation of $26,000 be provided, to enable the commission to digest the ma terial It has collected, and to collect and to digest much more that is within its reach. and thua complete Its work. This would enable the commission to gather In the har vest of suggestion which is resulting from the discussion It has stirred up. The com missioners have served without compensa tion, and I do not recommend any appro priation for their services, but only for the expenses that will be required to finish the task that they have begun. ."To Improve our system of agriculture seems to me the most urgent of the tasks which lie before us. But It can not. In my judgment, be effected by measures which touch only the material and technical aide of the subject; the whole business and life of the farmer must also be taken into ac count. Such consideration led me to ap point the commission on country life. Our object should be to help develop In the country community the great ideals of com munity life as well as of personal char acter. One of the most Important adjuncts to this end must be the country church, and 1 Invite your attention to what the commission says of the country church and of the need of an extension of such work as that of the Young Men's Christian asso ciation In country communities. Let me lay apeclal emphasis upon what the com mission says at the very end of Its report on personal Ideals and local leadership. Everything resolves Itself In the end Into the question of personality. Neither so ciety nor government can do much for country life unless there Is voluntary re sponse In the personal Ideals of the men and women who live in the country. In the development of character, the home should be more Important than the school, or than society at large. When once the basic ma terial needs have been met, high Ideals may be quite Independent of Income; but they cannot be tealized without sufficient In come to provide adequate foundation; and where the community at large Is not finan cially prosperous It Is Impossible to develop a high average personal and community Ideal. In short, the fundamental facts of human nature apply to men and women who live In the country just aa they apply to men and women who live In the towns. Given a sufficient foundation of material Wellbelng, the Influence of the farmers and farmers' wives on their children becomes the factor of first Importance In deternv Ing tha attitude of the next generation to ward farm life. The farmer should realize that the person who most needs considers tlon on the farm Is his wife. I do not in the least mean that she should purchase ease at the expense of duty. Neither man nor woman is really happy or really use ful save on condition of doing his or her at V duty. If the woman shirks her duty aa housewife, as home keeper, as the mother whose prime function It Is to hear and rear a aufficlent number of healthy children. then she Is not entitled to our regard. But if she does her duty she Is more entitled" to our regard even than the man who docs his duty; and the man should show special consideration for her needs. City l.lfe Dependent on Farms. "I w arn my countrymen that the great re cent progress' made In city lite Is not a full measure of our civilisation; tor our civilisation rests at bottom on the whole someness, the attractiveness, and ths com pleteness, as well as the prosperity, of life in the country. The men and women on the farms stand for what Is fundamentally best and most needed In our American life. Upon the development of country life resta ultimately our ability, by methods of farm ing requiring the highest Intelligence, to continue to feed and clothe the hungry na tions; to supply the city .with fresh blood, clean bodies and clear brains that can en dure the terrific strain of modern life; we need the development of men In the open country, who will be In the future, aa In the past, the stay and strength of the na tion In time of war, and Its guiding and controlling spirit in time of peace. "THEODORE ROOSEVELT." "The White House, February 9, ttoj." COMMISSION 0 COUSTRV LIFE Report Transmitted by President DIs rassea Some Conditions on Farm. WASHINGTON, Feb. sl-The report of the Commission on Country Life was trans mitted to congress by the president. The report of the commission describes with some fullness the existing conditions of farm life and points out the causes that may have led to Its present lack of organisation. It suggests methods for the redirection of rural society, for arresting the drift to the city, for maintaining the natural rights of the farmer and for the development of an organized rural life that will promote the prosperity of the whole nation. Broadly speaking, agriculture In the United 8tates Is prosperous and the condi tions in many of the great farming regions are improving. Country homes generally are improving In comfort, attractiveness and healthfuiness. Many Institutions, or ganizations v and movements are actively contributing to tha increasing, welfare of the open country. There haa never been a time when the American farmer waa as well off aa he Is today, when not only his earning power but the comforts and advantages he may secure are considered. There haa been, a complete and fundamental change in our whole economic aystem within the last century. Tet it is true, notwithstanding all thla progress aa measured by historical stand ards, that agriculture Is not commercially as profitable as it is entitled to be for the labor and energy that the farmer ex pends and the risks that he assumes, and that the social conditions in the open country are far short of their possibilities. Ignorant of Possibilities. Rural aoctety Is lacking chiefly In a knowledge on the part of tha farmers of the exact agricultural conditions and possibilities of their regions, resulting in the widespread depletion of soils with the injurious effect on rural life; in proper training for country life in the schools; in good highway facilities, and in organisa tion for buying and aelllng. There 'is an absence of "any adequate system of agricultural credit, a shortage of labor, often complicated by Intemper ance among workmen; a lack of Institu tions and Incentives that tie the laboring man to the troll; the life of the farm woman Is burdensome and narrow; there is need of adequate supervision of public health. ''' The farmer is handicapped by the specu lative holding of lands, monopolistic con trol of streams and forests, waste of our natural resources, and by restraint of trade. Some of the remedies for the conditions set forth lie with the national govern ment, some of them with the states and communities In their corporate ' capacities, some with voluntary organizations, and Some with individuals acting alone. All organised forces both In town and country should understand that there are country phases of our civilization, and that one phase needs help as much as the other. All th?se agencies shoud realize their responsibility to society. Many ex isting organizations and Institutions might become practically co-operative or mutual in spirit, as for example, all agricultural societies, libraries, Toung Men's Chris tian accaciatlons and churches. All the organizations standing for rural progress should be federated in states and nation. Organised Effort Jfecessary. There are several great forces, or princi ples, which must be utilized in the en deavor to solve the country life question. There must be a vast enlargement of vol untary, organized effort among farmers themselves. It Is indispensable that farm ers shall work trgether for their common interests and for the national welfare. If they do not do this, no governmental ac tivity, no legtslatior, not even better schools, will greatly avail. The forces an! institutions that make for morality and spiritual Ideals among rural people must be energized. There must be not only a fuller scheme of public education, but a new kind of education adapted to the real needs of the farming people. The country schools are to be so. redirected that they shall educate their pupils In terms of the dally life. Op portunities for trsining toward the agri cultural callings are to be multiplied and made broadly effective. This meana re doubled efforts for better country schools, and a vastly increased Interest In the wel fare of country boys and glrla on the part cf those who pay the school taxes. Educa tion by means of agriculture la to be a part of our regular public .school work, Special agricultural schools are to be or ganized. The country people everywhere are ask ing for goed roads. Everywhere, too, they want a parcels post and the extension of the rural free delivery. The commission has purposely avoided endorsing any particular bill now before congress, no matter what Ita value or ob ject. In' the opinion of the commission, however, there are' two or three move ments of the utmost consequence that should be set under way at the earllort possible time because they are fundamental to the whole problem of permanent re construction. There should be organized under government leadership a compre hensive plan for an exhaustive study or survey of all tha conditions that surround the business of farming and the people who live in the country. In order to take stock of our resources and to supply the farmer with knowledge. (ollcge Extension Work. Each atate college of agriculture should organise aa soon as practicable, a com plete department f college extension. Local, state, and even nation conferences on rural progress, designed to unite tha interests of education, organisation and religion, should be held. There is need for young people of qual ity, energy, capacity, aspiration and con viction, who will live In the open country aa permanent residents on faran.s or as (eachers. or In other useful fields, and who, while developing their own business or af faire to the greatest perfection, will atill have unselfish Interest tn tha welfare of Trained Furse Says y v V w ssi- .

The farming country is by no means devoid of leaders and Is not lost or Incapable of helping Itself, but it has been relatively overlooked by persons who are seeking great fields of usefulness. It will be well for us as a people If we recognize the opportunity for usefulness the open country and consider that there Is a call for service." The suggestions of the commission only outline a general plan whereby the strong resident forces In the open country may themselves build up a new nnd better rural social structure. To accomplish this, the entire people must be aroused. The time for this Is at hand. ILLINOIS CENTRAL- MORTGAGE Company Files Lien to secare Han dred and Ten Million In Refunding: Bonds. CHICAGO.
