Some farmers don't see the difference
between being reckless and progressive.
Well, here it is in nutshell. Saddle
your $4,000 farm with a mortgage Of
$1,000; spend the proceeds for high
priced horse flesh, fancy harness and a
$500 carriage this is recklessness. Live
within your income (; feed your live
stock well test the efficiency of new
things /; keep up with the times and on
the same footing with others who are
making agriculture success this is
progressive. See? The picture is over
drawn? Not bit of it. Open your
eyes, and look around you,. and-yes
examine your own mode of procedure
and you will see with wiser eyes, per.
haps, than at present.
