Purdue Professor George S. Christie urged rural ministers at Lafay ette that money alone cannot keep people on farms. The country must appeal more than towns through scientific agriculture, real work in crops and stock, and a farm as a productive workshop.

The city’s allure distracts some, yet rural life offers purpose if fully developed.
The Indianapolis Star notes in 1915 that judging life on wealth and professional status ignores the farm’s appeal. It argues wealthier urban areas have more want and that Americans should value country life’s charm and joy. The piece urges appreciation of rural living.
