Let's Help Start
Business Moving:
Now !• the time to help start bet
ter times In Dixie, says the current
Issue of The Progressive (Farmer.
Rural Ist, and every family in the
South oan help In bringing about
this result—some by cash and some
by barter. This farm paper con.
ttones:—
"It seems to be generally aooctpted
that the national government and
the Federal Refeervi> System are go.
ing to reverse in some the
ruinous policy of deflation which has
forced down all commodity prioea.
This reversal of policy may go to
only moderate lengths. Or *t may
conceivably go ter enough to force
prices back to average levels of
1920-SO. At any rata a measurable
degree of rising prices is generally
prophesied.
"What does this mean? It means
that a dollar spent now im likely to
buy more than a dollar spent later
on. One leading Southern power
company even conspicuously adver
tises this prediction:—
" 'The dollar you spend now 'm
worth 51.50. The dollar you Mure
now is worth 76 cents.'
"We would not go •© far as that,
but to every reader wbo hu surplus
money, we would say -this: Now is
the time to make really needed lm.
provements, to 'buy the thinca you
know you ahould have, and to make
investments that you expect to make
sometime. If there la butfdJog to
be done, house* to 'be repaired or
painted or equipped, we doubt wbeth.
er you can ever again hire or buy
so cheaply aa now the needed lumber
and carpenters, paint and painters,
plumbing and plumbers, con
veniences and comforts.
And it you need t buy
itles everywhere never before offer
ed and never again likely to be aur.
passed. The man who has money
would do well to invest it while *t
will buy oioet.
"In the seoond place, we should
like to strasa the fact that even
folks who haven't money can do a
lot to start business moving by doing
everything they can by barter. A
dentist reported. a day or two aso
that one farmer had furnished him
turkeys to pay a bill, another cream,
another tenure for his garden. We
have just heard of another farmer
who bought some land by agreeing
to pay, not cash with its present
uncertain value, but 7(0 bushels of
soybeans each year for ffve year*.
Advertisements in local paper# and
in farm papers announcing exchange*
you are willing to make —livestock,
feed, seeds, machinery, equipment,
etc.—might start a lot of business
moving. Some counties we know
have a 'farmers' exchange' day at
