This profit of 81, $40 is the cash divi-
dend received from an investment in
a farm of $4,000, and is equal to $50
per cent. What business, may ask,
can man go into, that will furnish a
profit Of IS per cent?
In this. case the owner did no labor
on the farm. He did not even live on
the firm, but merely managed it from
his home in the city. three miles away,
mostly by the aid of a telephone line
running fLom his residence to the
farm. Had the owner lived on the
farm and labored even moderately,
there is no doubt but the receipts
would be still greater. ~. H..
This farm contained 100 acres OF
land, having house, barn and pig
gerry, all cleared and under the pillow,
upon which a dairy business was car
ried on. Four acres of this land were
occupied by house, buildings, garden
and orchard; the balance, ninety. six
acres, was under cultivation. The
farm is naturally rather poor and
sandy, the first cost being only 81, 600,
five years ago, although now, from
added improvements and enriched fer
tilitv is listed at $4,000. The crops
raised are corn, for ensilage, hay and
grass; all grain food as bran, oil cake,
cotton seed meal, gluten meal and
such by products, are purchased, no
attempt being made to grow the grain
food on the farm.
The saleable products are milk and
hogs. The milk is deli. cred daily, to
a nearby creamery, and the hogs are
sold on foot, as they mature ready for
market. The live stock are so milk
COWS, IL brood sows and FIVE horses.
A rotation is pursued and closely fol-
lowed. Forty-eight acres are under
pasture each year; sixteen acres under
clover, sixteen acres under peas, oats,
and barley, mixed, made into hay,
and sixteen devoted to. ensilags corn.
The stable is built on the most modern
plan, ensnring. ventilation, economy Of
labor, and saying Of fertilizers.

A prize fight with gloves had
been arranged to come off in Min
neapolis. Gov. Van SAINT called
upon Mayor Ames to prevent it,
and the mayor promptly acqui-
esced, although he said he did not
understand it to be anything but a
harmless boxing bout. However,
the atmosphere of Minnesota is
sweeter by reason of its being
called off by the authorities.
