This book was released on 2017-10-30 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from What Peace Can Mean to American Farmers: Post-War Agriculture and Employment Farm leaders and farm people have worked hard for more than 3 years to expand and adjust agricultural production to meet the exacting demands of war. Farmers have produced more food and feed than ever before. Now they are justly concerned with their place or role in the post-war world, for ominous signs may be seen on the horizon. Underlying this apprehension of the future is the deep awareness that agriculture is not only more productive but is also more prosperous now than at any previous time. The war restored agricultural prosperity, it raised farm incomes, and it renewed in farm people a feeling of pride in their work.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Prentice-Hall Tax Service for 1919 This allowance is not based upon the difference between the actual war cost of such facilities and what they would have cost at pre-war prices. Obviously the taxpayer is not entitled to recover or extinguish through amortization more than the difference between the war cost of such property and what he can sell the property for after the war, or if he continues to need and use it in his business, what it would have cost him after the war. As the rule is expressed in Article 183 of the Regulations: The total amount to be extinguished by amortization, in general, is the excess of the unextinguished or unrecovered cost of the property over its maximum value (either for sale or for use as part of the plant or equipment of a going business) under stable post war.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ireland, Agriculture and the War: An Open Letter to Irish Farmers I feel impelled this week to speak to you personally and directly on the circumstances brought about by the war which affect you as farmers, because from reports which have reached me by many channels, public and private, I am certain that immense numbers of you are unaware of, or do not realise, the new situation created, and that time is hurrying on rapidly to a point where a light will beat strongly on you and all your doings and the attention of the nation will be concentrated upon your class and the Way in which you discharge your functions in the national life. You all know that half the world is at war. Many of you realise it painfully and intimately through brothers, sons, kin or friends who are actual participants in the fighting. In that sense you need no more reminder that the world is at war, but you do not yet realise that you are more than onlookers, that you are called on to be participators in the struggle, not as combatants, but as part of that other noble army whose business it is in many ways to heal up the wounds of the combatants, to make good the wastage in society, and to ameliorate the evil effects of the war. What those working under the Red Cross do for all combatants alike, without distino tion betwe-em friend or foe of their country, you are called upon to do for society at large. Your occupation, always necessary in times of peace, in time of war, in periods of great human necessity stands out prominently and assumes its eternal position as the foremost, the most necessary, of all human occupations. The longer war continues the more does farming, normally hidden behind a hundred other occupations, come to the front. Men think little in times of plenty of the labours which bring them the food that enables them to live and work; but let there be shortage and a wild apprehension springs up in society and people realise that it is upon you and your labours that they depend altogether. You become the staff on which they lean. Every[ other occupation almost might disappear, but' yours never, without humanity disappearing! And any failure of yours in time of necessity to equal the need of the world inflicts the most terrible suffering on the world. Any neglect of duty in a time of necessity would be as ignoble as the act of a Red Cross contingent who on the battlefield neglected to attend to the wounded. The longer the war continues the more insistent will be the claims of the world upon you who can farm, you over whose fields no armies have marched, to supply the shortage of food brought about by the withdrawal of millions of your class in Europe to take part in a redder reaping than any the world has hitherto known.

Download or read book The County Agent and the Farm Bureau Classic Reprint written by M. C. Burritt and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-13 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The County Agent and the Farm Bureau The second decade of the twentieth century has been an eventful one for farmers. World economic conditions and especially the great war brought to its culmination the trend of affairs already well under way, which restored the farm ers' purchasing power and consequent prosperity. But this was attained only to be lost in the greatest slump in the purchasing power of agricultural products ever known in the United States. The reversal of the ratio of rural to urban population in the last half century has focused attention on the problems of marketing and distribution. The problem and a better understanding of its nature and solution together have stimulated a great period of organi zation among farmers. Prosperity brought with it new and effective means of education. Both in this agricultural organization and in the new means of education the county agent and the farm bureau have had 'a large part, which should be better understood and appreciated.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The O. A. C. Review, Vol. 31: February, 1919 Before farming will become the pop ular occupation, the economic condi tions of our country must be readjust ed. 'there is a general dissatisfaction throughout the country, and real dis content with the 'business of farming. Most of our farmers know how to pro duce much better than they are pro ducing. This feeling has, of course, been developed during war times, be cause of the' labor situation, and many have been forced, in their effort to maintain production, to make farming an existence rather than a life. Cir cumstances have occurred during the past year which have enlightened farm ers as to the regard in which they are held by politicians, and they are now realizing that their occupation has been made the political foot-ball in times past. We agree that farm life can be made the ideal life, but not un der present conditions. Were it not for the inherent love of the land, many more would have left the farm long ago. As Mr. E. O..drury said at the recent convention in Toronto I farm for less because I would rather do it, than do anything else formore. I am a one-man farmer, and have all the problems of the ordinary farmer, struggling along with these problems to solve. I am happy in the work. But I know that I am not getting sufficient returns for the time and labor and thought which I put into my farm.

Download or read book Up from the Mudsills of Hell written by Connie L. Lester and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 2006 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Up from the Mudsills of Hell analyzes agrarian activism in Tennessee from the 1870s to 1915 within the context of farmers’ lives, community institutions, and familial and communal networks. Locating the origins of the agrarian movements in the state’s late antebellum and post-Civil War farm economy, Connie Lester traces the development of rural reform from the cooperative efforts of the Grange, the Agricultural Wheel, and the Farmers’ Alliance through the insurgency of the People’s Party and the emerging rural bureaucracy of the Cooperative Extension Service and the Tennessee Department of Agriculture. Lester ties together a rich and often contradictory history of cooperativism, prohibition, disfranchisement, labor conflicts, and third-party politics to show that Tennessee agrarianism was more complex and threatening to the established political and economic order than previously recognized. As farmers reached across gender, racial, and political boundaries to create a mass movement, they shifted the ground under the monoliths of southern life. Once the Democratic Party had destroyed the insurgency, farmers responded in both traditional and progressive ways. Some turned inward, focusing on a localism that promoted--sometimes through violence--rigid adherence to established social boundaries. Others, however, organized into the Farmers’ Union, whose membership infiltrated the Tennessee Department of Agriculture and the Cooperative Extension Service. Acting through these bureaucracies, Tennessee agrarian leaders exerted an important influence over the development of agricultural legislation for the twentieth century. Up from the Mudsills of Hell not only provides an important reassessment of agrarian reform and radicalism in Tennessee, but also links this Upper South state into the broader sweep of southern and American farm movements emerging in the late nineteenth century.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Gleaner: November, 1942 With the government's decision to defer farm labor and farmers from the draft, upon those of us who may be deferred serious obligations are imposed. Under that ruling, our government has placed upon those who are deferred the share that they must contribute to the war effort, if this war is to end with victory for all of us. So tremendous is that share, that, in order to fulfill it and in order to Show that students and future farmers are able to help fulfill it, they must devote themselves earnestly to their task. They must take every day and every phase of their farm and school life as seriously as the soldier in the field has to take his duties, until the goal that we are struggling for has been reached. During our class period, we have to do our very best to acquire as much knowledge as possible to be applied to the benefit of all those who are fighting with us. In our industrials, we must do our best to keep up the level of production which makes Our school a contributor and not a customer of the pantry of democracy. We have to do our work conscientiously so that later on we can be confident of our knowledge and experience.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Wartime Farming on the Northern Great Plains Here is one of the largest and most important agricultural regions of the world. Its grain and its cattle have been outstanding articles of commerce in world markets for half a century. Today, they are more vital than ever before. They are sinews of war. Total war requires total production. This is as true of agriculture as it is of industry. Every man, every machine, every acre of our vast agricultural plant must produce its share of supplies for fighting men, for men and women at work, and for our allies in arms. American agriculture must in the years just ahead produce more than it ever has before. The Department of Agriculture has set produc tion goals never before reached in all our his tory. But they must be reached now. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book What Peace Can Mean to American Farmers written by United States Department Of Agriculture and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from What Peace Can Mean to American Farmers: Maintenance of Full Employment This publication is one of a series under the general title What Peace Can Mean To American Farmers. It is a sequel to an earlier one in the series, called Post War Agriculture and Employment, which contains an analysis of the possible significance to agriculture of various levels of nonagricultural employment. The gen eral conclusion drawn from that analysis was that under full employment, post-war adjustments required in agri culture would be manageable, but that the difficulties would multiply as the number of unemployed is increased. How to maintain a full-employment economy, there fore, is a matter of great interest to farmers, even though most of the action required lies outside areas usually covered by agricultural programs as such. Even though the present analysis as submitted to me deals with numer ous problems that are not strictly within the agricultural field, the action taken by the American people in meeting these problems will have such a profound effect on all agriculture that I am having this study printed so that agricultural agencies dealing with post-war problems, and farm people generally, may have a better under standing of the more important elements of the whole problem. This publication does not necessarily present Department policy but is offered primarily as an analysis for purposes of discussion and further study.

This book was released on 2018-03 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from What Peace Can Mean to American Farmers: Agricultural Policy This fourth and last report of a series dealing with what peace can mean to American farmers is concerned with issues that will arise in the formulation of a long-range national farm program. The first report of the series described economic conditions likely to be associated with full employment and different levels of unem ployment in the years after the war and indicated probable effects of these different levels on the price and income position of farmers. The second and third reports discussed possible ways for maintaining full employment and expanding foreign trade. Of necessity, they con cerned all phases of national and world economy rather than those of agriculture alone. The fourth report deals with problems and possible solutions in the field of agriculture itself. Discussion of agricultural policy has been reserved till last so that it may be treated in perspective. The broader policies designed to keep the general economy running in high gear with full employment and high production will have a tremendous impact on agriculture. Interdependence of the various branches of the modern economy today is too well accepted to require demonstration. On the other hand, the interdependence is by no means so great that any action or set of actions that improves the well - being of one group will automatically bring comparable benefits to all other groups.

Download or read book Walton World War History Being Classic Reprint written by Arthur Walbridge North and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-07 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Walton World War History Being Upon the declaration of war in 1917, the New York Division of Archives and History realized that much historical material would be lost unless steps were taken for its preservation. Out of this realization came legislation providing for the preparation of a series of volumes on New Yorks part in the war. With 068, 000 men in military service alone, the task was Herculean. To assist, early in 1920, over a thousand officially appointed local historians were named. Their work was to be completed by October of that year. So slow, however, has been the material for tlie history in coming in that even now there is no telling when the volumes will be ready for the press. A scant handful of the assistants had their local histories filed in Albany by the original date, October, 1920. One of these, a service man himself, wrote for Walton. Avoiding mere wearisome details and. statistics, he has drawn a picture of his community in1917- 18, with the subjective side of service told in vivid language quoted from the men themselves. Though past draft age, Mr. North volunteered in April, 1917, for active infantrjduty. With a like spirit he has now consented to bring out Waltons history in the World War so that his community may have it without the delays frequently unavoidable with state publications. In this most commendable enterprise he has my approval and best wishes. The local war history has its distinctive value. Controversies will arise and tomes will be written concerning the jreat War, and yet with the passing years we, as individuals, will look back to that struggle ever more and more from the personal angle of that community which we then called home. Accordingly, I bespeak this little history not only as an integral portion of the wartime chronicle of New York, but as a volume which each of the authors fellow townsmen should own and cherish as a record of a critical period of his life.
