WESTERN FARMS AND FARMERS

There is no such thing as striking an
average in the farming world. says Il cor
respondent of the Milwaukee Sentinel, that
is, no two farmers ever made the same
amount of money in one season. There are
j.73? 81 farms in the United States. These
vary in size from forty acres to 1909. In
the southwest there are some wheat farms
covering $500 acres but these are rare
Farming never paid better returns than
the present year. Very few OF the West
err farmers are borrowing money, unless
1t is for temporary use. such as lifting
them through a harvest or feeding a bunch
of cattle for the market. Mortgages 20
wanting new farms arc being laid out,
timber is being cleared away and Indian
reservations arc sold for farming purposes
more and more every year.
one-tnird of the entire acreage Of the
United States is used for farming pur-
poses. If all the farms in the United States
were launched together, the entire couu-
tries of England, Scotland. Ireland, Wal, 5
and their adjacent islands, France Ger
many, Austria hungary, Spain, Japan and
the Transvaal could be set inside of them
and enough margin would be left to drive
he cereals of the world to market in wd-
CONS eight abreast.
There are - per cent more farms to-day
than ten years ago The average size OF
the farmers holdings throughout the Unit
cd States is 1i6 acres, less than a quarter

than n quarter section and most of thon
a half or full section. But East and North

ANCESTRAL HOMES AND PIONEERS

Lincoln. He was a British deserter, was
impressed into the service when a lad of
16 and never knew aught of his friends in
his native land after his seizure. AT the last
glimpse he caught of his Dother she was

and go to the stable to make ccremonious
calls on its inmates.
Lincoln as first chartered contained six
square miles but received additions from
Iadioining towns. Quite an area was added
to the southern boundary from the towns
of Bristol and Ripton. The Rev. Ziba Pope

home was near the centre: he was Free
