FARMS MUST EARN MORE
There are several reasons iVhy
farm earnings are showing a de
cline partially due to\ economic
discontent and political agita
tion.
Statistics show that large num
bers of tenant farmers have ac
cumulated funds out Df farm
earnings toward becoming fasn
owners, but the process is slov
and one of considerable diffi
culty.
Increase in valuation of farm
land has two effects: purchaser?
can borrow more money to meet
payments, but higher prices foi
land discourage tenants fron
t buying.
Desirability of farm land if
not enhanced by too mudh svpad
omic discussion about employing
family labor without wages, oi
underestimating the value oi
such labor.
All reports show that tenants
or farm owners having good
sized families, and largely em
ploying family labor on the land,
are more prosperous and success
ful than farm operators without
families.
Where the tenant has no fam
ily labor from which to increase
iiis margin of return over neces
sary expenditures, he carries an
ndditonal handicap in this strug
gle to become a farm owner.
The same general fact holds
true with those who own farms
hut are compelled to employ all
their labor at present prevailing
high wages.
Wc thought everybody knew
that shingles are supposed to
go on top of the house, but
this fellow is putting one on
the bottom. Dad sent
the kid to our yard
with an order for shin
gles but he went tc
the wrong .place—they
sent out the wrong kind
cf shingles—Dad’s sore
and the kid’s getting sorer every minute, e N'cxt time
he’ll look for this name:

of confii ting reports by those

At first there are only four
that can be named but some of
che party say they counted six
teen; some say they counted
twenty and one claims'that he
actually counted twenty-one per-
lons. and claims that they all
had plenty of fish for supper.
The best information that
could be had as to the amount of
fish caught was that some one of
the crowd caught a monstrous
bull frog and another caught a
