Iffarmer; universally kept &C
count with their land, charging
each field with cost of cultivation,
and crediting it with the net sales
of product over cost Of marketing,
thev would be surprised at the
amount of land that did not pay
expenses. 1t is this waste land, as it
might be called, that is the great
drawback to successful farming. In
an extensive acquaintance with
farmers in good agricultural dis
trict, a shrewd observer remarked
that he did not know any farm of
more than fifty acres where every
acre paid expenses; on most farms
of 100 or more acres all the profit,
where there is any, is made from
ten to twenty acres. In other words,
these farmers would be practically
better off, so far as profit is concern
ed, if they had half or quarter as
much land as--they possess. With
the smaller area they should have
more working capital per acre, and
this the sale of their Superauous
land would give.
1t often happens thai poor spots
in otherwise fertile fields destroy
all chance of profit, and compel the
farmer to work them at y loss. How
many places are there this year
where rains after seeding spring
gram have drowned out the crop,
thus losing the use of the ground,
labor and seed in blowing and SOW
ing, all of which has to be made up
IRON the more profitable parts OF
the farm. Were it not for these draw
backs, farmers need not lose money
even at prevailing low prices,
Most farmers will now admit that
for several years they have cultivat-
ed more land than they could well
afford, If they had restricted their
work to the area that they could fit
in the best condition and cultivate
thoroughly, their success would
have been reater.-American Gull

The following brief account of
the history of the Democratic party
in connection with the tariff ques-
ton, published by Southern writer
for the information Of Louisiana
protectionist who wants to go to
Congress. may interest some OF our
foreign subscribers:
The first Democratic national
convention met in 1888 and declar-
ed The true foundation of republi-
can government is the equal rights
of every citizen in his person and
and property and its management. y
In 1912, when Polk was nomin-
ated, the Democratic platform de-
clared "Justice and sound policy
forbid the federal government to
foster one branch Of industry to the
detriment of another, or cherish the
interests Of one portion to the injury
of another portion of our common
country"
This was reafirmed in 1914. In
1e4S the platform speaks of "the
noble impulse given to the cause of
free trade by the repeal of the tariff
Of 1912" In 1852 and in 1856 the
same sentiments are repeated, but
the platform of 1856 declared that
"the time has come for the people
of the United States to declare
themselves in favor of free seas ant
a progressive free trade Throughout
the world" In 1860 the principle
of 1856 we're resilinned by both th
Douglas and Breckenridge plat
forms. In 1872 the Democratic pal
ty lodged and desorvedly failed. L
1876, when Tilden was elected. tn
platform written by his friend
declared as follows: ave denounc
