A Plea for the Farmer.

Now, if ope-fourth of the time that fs
used to the upbuilding of the cattle busi-
ness in Ford county and creating false
sentiment that only cattle will pay, was
given in creating sentiment in favor OF
the farmer it would result in better un-
Outstanding of how to farm. and how to
learn what our surroundings are, and
how to meet them; how to care for the
soil and its requirements, how to save the
rain fall, and how to prevent evapora-
ton. For a fact, there are men who
have made fine crops of Indian corn;
there are others that have made good
crops of potatoes, and there are many
who have raised big crops of wheat and
have added immensely to the circulating
medium in Dodge City. As evidenced
by the new wagons that are seen on the
streets in the city. Also, last but not
least, by any means is the fact that i'm
mense crops of feed has been raised, and
which, if fed to hogs would add new
and profitable business for the farmer.
Farmers, build up home sentiment for
yourselves and boys. A boy raised on
the farm will make better citizen than
the boy that is riding s25 saddle placed
on a ten cent brOncho.
There is no place like the farm for our
boys. where all the family share alike,
and family influences are present, and
which guides the boy and largely shapes
his destiny for all his time while here on
earth.
There is nothing like a home on the
farm, where the mother is present with
her kindly advice.
On the other hand, what about the cow
boy camp and its influence? Would the
people rather educate their boys to fol-
low the cattle trail or would you rather
your boy would stay on the farm. True
it may be that the cattle business is more
profitable, but true it is all can not en-
gage in the cattle business, because all
are not situated SO as to engage in said
business. The writer of this has heard
men say that we must 60 into the cattle
business and the same parties could
not but the tail end of a yearling steer.
The cattle business will eventually fur
nish demand for feed crops, and the
time will come when the farmers of Ford
county will be strictly in it.
