Excerpt from The State and the Farmer
The immediate basis of this book is a paper on "The State and the Farmer," originating as a presidential address before the Association of American Agricultural Colleges and Experiment Stations at Lansing, Michigan, May 28, 1907. Five hundred copies of this address were printed by order of the Association. The demand continuing, I decided to expand the principles there expressed, and to apply them to a somewhat wider range; in doing this I have, of course, much increased the size of the original paper, but the general motive is not different. That paper, in turn, was the result of previous papers and addresses, some parts of which were incorporated in it; therefore, some of the arguments and points of view in this book are likely not to appear to be new to those readers who have followed this class of discussions.
