The Logan Republican. [volume] (Logan, Utah) 1902-1924, 1903-03-24

The farmers with small acreage i'm
southern Utah have found by eXper-
fence that they cannot raise wheat at
competitive prices that exist. They
find that other products can be raised
with more profit. When the cost of
machinery to equip farm for raising
grain Is considered, attached to other
incidental expenses that arise, such as
toll for thrashing, etc, there Is not
much left as net profit. If the far
mers in this valley would turn their
attention to the milk industry, and
the raising of beets it can hardly be
doubted that they would secure better
results. The manure from the cows
kept upon the farm could be put on
the beet land to enrich IL. We know
some little of settlement i'm this
valley that had hard time for years,
financially, while they were raising
wheat almost exclusively for their
crop. Since the starting of the Sugar
Factory they raise no wheat, COM
paratiyely, but have turned their at
tcntion to mich cows and raising
beets and alfalfa. The fine residences
and general improvements since the
change are evidences Of the better
ment of their condition. We know
whereof we speak when we state that
it is the enormous amount of money
paid for expensive machinery that
holds the farmer down in poverty,
and more especially will this apply to
the small farmers, for the same assort-
ment of machinery is called for on a
small farm of twenty or thirty acres,
as on one much larger in size. The
facts are that the small farmer cannot
carry the debt that is imposed by
these purchases of machinery, and the
result is, the farm is mortgaged to
pay the debts incurred in running it.
If the right kind of products were
raised, the cost of machinery to
handle the farm would be very light.
We therefore encourage the farmers
with small farms to plant something
besides wheat. Let those with larger
farms do this for their farms can af-
ford to carry the large stock of ma
chinery. Small farmers should plant
onions, potatoes, sugar beetS and
alfalfa, keep up your small farms by
manuring well; bring the land up to a
higher state of cultivation. Let each
farmer take some good farm and stock
paper, read up ON different topics, and
what you do on the farm, let it be
done intelligently. You will find that
working along these lines will pay you
well in the end.
