We believe in small farms and thorough
cultivation.
We believe the soil loves to eat as we'll
as its owner, and ought to be we'll MANFRED.
We believe in going to the bottom Of
things, and therefore in deep ploughing and
enough of it. All the better if it be sub.
soil plough.
We believe in large crops which leave
land better than when they found it-mak-
ing both the farmer and the farm right at
once.
We believe ,ba, every farm SHOULD own
good farmer,
We believe that the hest fertalizer of any
soil, is spirit of industry. enterprise and
intelligence-without this, lime. gypsum
and green manure, mail and guano viii be
of little use.
We believe in good fences, good barns,
good iarm houses, good stock, good orchards
and children enough to gather the. fruit.
We believe in clean kitchen, neat
wife IN it; clean cupboard, clean dairy,
and a clean conscience.
