MS WORLD'S
GREATEST.PROBLEM
i
WE ARE LONG ON PRODUCTION.
? . SHORT ON DISTRIBUTION.
.. I
By Peter Radford
Lecturer National tfarroer* llnlou.
The economic distribution of farm
producta la today the'world's greatest
problem and the war, while It has
brought Its hardships, baa clearly em
phasised the Importance of distribu
tion as a factor in American agricul
ture and promises to glee the farm
ers the co-operation of the govern
ment and the business men the
solution of their marketing problem.
This result wlU, In e measure, com
pensate us for our war losses, for the
business laterssts end gorernment
hare been In the main assisting al
most exclusively on the production
side of agriculture While the depart
ment of agriculture haa been dumping
tons of literature on the farmer telling
htm how to produce, the farmer has
been dumping tons of products tax the
nation's garbage can for want of a
market
The World Will Never Starve.
At no time since Adam and Eve
were dHven from the Garden of Eden 1
have the inhabitants of this world
suffered from lack of production, but
some people hare gone hungry from
the day of creation to this good hour -
for the lack of proper distribution.
Slight variations in production have 8
forced a change In diet end one local
ity haa felt the pinch of want while
anrfther surfeited, but the worlQ as a
whole has ever been a land of plenty. {
We now have less than one-tenth of
the tillable land of the earth's surface
under cultivation, and we not only e
have this surplus area to draw on but $
It la safe to estimate that in case of .
dire necessity one-half the earth's
population could at the present time v
knock their living out of the trees J
of the forest, gather It from wild .
vines and draw It from streams. No
one should become alarmed; the t
world will never starve. f
The consumer ihas always feared
that the produced would not supply
him and his fright has found expres- t
slon on the statute hooka of our states t
and nattona and the farmer has bean .,
urged to produce recklessly and with
out reference to a market, and regard
leas of the demands of the consumer. ?
? Back to the toll. ^
The city people h*T? been urging .
each other to more back to the farm, 0
bat very few of them hare moved, a
We welcome oar city coaslne back to A
the soil and this earth's surface con
tains 16.093.160,000 idle acres of till- 11
able land where they can make a b
living by tickling the earth with a J
forked stick, bat we do not need them
so far as Increasing production is eon- 6
cerned; we now have all the producers a
we can use. The city man has very jj
. erroneous ideas of agricultural condi
tions. The commonly accepted theory P
that we are short on production Is all |<
wrong. Our annual increase in pro- ^
duct ion far ekceeds, that of our in
crease in population. 1
The World as a Farm. t
Taking the world as one big farm, f
we find two billion acres of land in ,
cultivation. Of this amount there is
approximately 760,000,000 acres on the
western and 1.260,000,000 acres on the t
eastern hemisphere, in cultivation. .
This estimate, of course, does not In* J
elude graslng lands, forests, etc, a
where large quantities of meat are t
produced.
The world's annual crop approxi
mates fifteen billion bushels of ce- I
reals, thirteen billion pounds of llbre
and sixty-five million tons of meat
The average annual world crop for
the past five years, compared with the
previous five years, is as follows:
' Past Half Previous Half '
Crops? Decade. Decade.
Corn (Bu.) 8,934,174,000 3,403,666,090
Wheat (Bu.) 3,622,769,000 3.257,526,000
Oats (Bu.) 4420,017.000 8i608,316,000
Cotton(Bales) 19,863,800 17,541,200 ,
Tne world shows an average in
crease In cereal production of 13 per |
cent during the past decade, compared
with the previous five years, while thd
world's population shows an increase
of only tjiree per cent
The gain in production far exceeds
that of our.increase in population, and
it is safe to estimate that the farmer
can easily Increase production 25 per
cent if a remunerative market can be
found for the products. In textile 1
fibres the world shows an Increase
during the past half decade in produc
tion of 16 per cent against * popula
tion increase of three per cent.
The people of this nation shotald 1
address themselves to the subject of
Improved facilities for distribution.
Over-production and crop mortgage
force the farmers Into ruinous com
petition with each other. The remedy
lies in organisation and In co-opera
tion in maitetlng.
