THE FARMERS BEST CAPITAL

The FARMERS BEST CAPITAL
Labor is capital, intelligence is
capital; combine them and you
moro than double the amount OF
y6ur capital. 1t is industry which
makes capital, not capital the in
dustry; but industry ill-directed
can never acquire the capital
which comes from well-directed
industry. Look through any town,
and on the same road, occupying
arms of similar character, and you
will observe a difference in the
Prosperity Of the farmers. Exam
inc closely the conditions and it
viii be found that the richest far
ner kas exercised the most intel
hgence over his labor. Seek
fuFther and you will find poor and
Industrious farmers, as well as poor
and lazy farmers. An intelligent
application is used, and less actual
labor, greater prosperity is found.
Go, reader, and verify this state
mont, and If found correct, be an
advocate of higher education for
the farmer.

ask her if she can't do without it
Then go Gown town and spead ten
