Excerpt from The Training of Farmers
The so-called rural problem is one of the great public questions of the day. It is the problem of how to develop a rural civilization that is permanently satisfying and worthy of the best desires. It is a complex problem, for it involves the whole question of making the farms profitable (that is, of improving farming methods), perfecting the business or trade relations of farming people, and developing an active and efficient social structure.
As the problem is complex, so there is no simple or easy solution. The present status is, of course, a phase or stage in social evolution; and the improvement of the condition must be a process of further evolution.
