Hurley, chairman United States Shipping Board.) Thero me thousands of farmers through the West who remember those times back in the eighties and nineties when corn was worth more to burn than to sell. 1 wonder if they would be interested in some simple figures explaining those times. our manufacturing output then was, roundly, $150 per capita for the whole population Of the United States; thai is, in 1890, the corn burning period The value of a farm in ISfeU to each farmer tilling the soil was $2000. The value of pro ducts that each factory worker made in 1890 was $2000. The average wages of the factory worker Was $490 per 5 ear. Then came the great industrial ex pansion, beginning about 1898, v. inch has paused only once or twice. In 1914 nobody wmihl have thought of burning corn or any other farm product, tor farmers were pros perous along with the factory work ers. By thai time we were making $246 worth of goods per capita, or $.50,10 per factory worker. The fac tory worker's wages had risen to $660 a year, and the result was clearly shown in the value of a farm which was then $3400 for every per son engaged in tilling the soil. I think this shows pretty clearly that the farmer's market and his prosperity are linked closely with our industrial prosperity. 1 have quot ed these figures because 1 believe that 20 years from now the statistic ians will be able to compare the fac tory output and wages and farm val ues of 1938 with those of today and show perhaps even a more remark able increase. For we are on the verge of an even greater industrial advance —an ex tension of production and commerce in world trade_to the American mer chant marine and the new banking laws and other recent legislation which will help us to put our ships on new trade routes all over the world. As a business man, the farmer has both a direct and indirect interest in these ships, besides his investment as an American. Direct benefits will come to him through direct sales of his products to foreign countries, breeding animals to South America, fruit and dairy products to Europe and the Orient, and tho like. In deed, the farmer through his co operative marketing organizations and his government can do much directly to promote new world mar kets, especially in those specialties like red apples and cheese which sell for good prices and take the mini mum of fertility from his soil. But the indirect returns of the American merchant marine to the farmer will be even greater. By sell ing our factory goods abroad wo can increase the output. When you in crease the output of a factory, in most cases, you are able to reduce cost of production and also prices. For increased output means that peo ple have steadier work and that over head expenses such as rent, insur ance, depreciation, etc., are spread over a greater volume of business. With world markets in which to sell our manufacturers can keep their plants running through the year. They can pay higher wages. They can give factory workers more work each year. The American factory worker lives well. (Jive him more wages and the first expenditure he makes is at the grocery store and the butcher shop for more food and bet ter. So the American merchant ma rine and world trade are about to put more dollars into our factories and some of those dollars will go to the farmers for food. Another interesting phase of world trade for this country when our mer chant marine is in operation will be the new insurance against hard limes. Ido not believe that we shall ever again have money panics—the Federal Reserve system has stopped them. It has prevented several pan ics since the European war began. But there is always the possibility -if depression due to decreased de mand for our factory goods. That sort of hard times came to us here at home through reduced crop yields and other causes. With an active merchant marine and a healthy, growing world trade, however, wo shall be in a differ ent position. During every panic and depression of the past 26 years Amer ican business men have always looked abroad for customers, to sell surplus goods. But they were strangers in foreign marketswith out sales branches or ships or bank ing facilities. Now. that we are about to really cause world trade with our own ships and bankers, and salesmen, it will be possible to dis count hard times at homo. Should business fall off here we can go to Other countries where times are good —and times are always good some where around the word —and sell our factory surplus. Wo will not be strangers then. Wo will have cus tomers in other countries, and sales men, and branch banks; we will have ships to serve those customers bet ter than they have ever been served before and so wo will get th- busi ness, j As i have- said before, the greatest business in this country is farming. The farmer's business, however, is linked up with that of the manufac turer Also the farmer depends ab solutely upon tr: importation for his markets and profit. The American merchant marine represents the biggest transportation enterprise undertaken by this coun try since we built the transconti nental railroads, lt is bound to in crease and stabilize the farmer's business. For thai reason ho may well begin to study the possibilities of the American merchant marino, inform himself about It, and support it as good business. CLEAN THRESHING SAVES 10,000,000 BUSHELS Cleaner harvesting and threshing in the United States have come to stay, according to reports received by the U. S. Pood Administration from threshermen, farmers ami local rep resentatives in grain growing states. The so-called "blanket test" has shown thousands of grain producers how to determine when a threshing machine is operating properly, and has been especially Impressive, Other methods of farm conservation have resulted in further large savings of marketable grain. • Of 33 grain stales where efforts toward leaner threshing were cen tered, two-thirds have already re ported an aggregate saving of 16, --000,000 bushels of wheat, .Many of the other states, although not pre pared to make estimates, reported greatly reduced harvest losses. In addition to wheat, at which the clean threshing campaign was especially aimed, there have been correspond ing savings of other grains which are harvested and threshed in much the same manner as wheal and usually with the same machinery. An aver age of several thousand tests showed that raking shock rows saved about one bushel Of grain per acre In the past this operation has been an in frequent practice. Threshing is still progressing in some of the northern states, and final returns are expected to su sll the savings already* reported. But the saving of 16,000,000 bushels al ready reported represents wheat (ar goes of of 30,000 bushels each for 500 food ships. To complete the season's work in a thorough manner, owners of resiling machines, binders and all grain handling equipment are now asked to put them in readiness for next season. Emphasis is placed on ordering repair parts at once. Im plement factories have informed the Food Administration of heavy de mands for raw material, shortage of labor in the plants, and pressing war contracts. An additional advantage in ordering repairs and extra ma chinery parts this fall is the exact knowledge of what is needed. Next spring, some of the repairs needed may be overlooked, with consequent danger of mishap and delay when every hour will count heavily.
