Farming is considered the
most independent occupation in

can raise his own meat, bread,
butter, fruit, vegetables and
materials to make his own
clothing; but If he omits to do
this and grows only one crop
for market, he is just as de.
pendent as other people, and is
as likely to be imposed on by
high prices and damaged ma.
