not money but milk is wanted, the

asked for now, but OF course more
will be expected, WREN our people
see in it. as we believe theyInust, the
means Of increasing their revenues
which is thus offered them. More
grass, better stock and the opportu-
nifty to sell milk at fair prices, with
money coming in all the year around
are things certainly not to be de-

into consideration the fact that our
crops are not always remumerative.
The enterprise is certainly worthy

should be encouraged.
