A very serious loss in corn culture is
to find that one has only two-thirds

justify the replanting Of the whole

A reader who lives on the sandy
lands north Of St Paul puts in a few
reasons why sandy farm is not 80
bad after all. He facetously observes
for one thing that he and his neigh
bors do not have to use stoneboat to
get to town in the spring Of the year,
that their soil never bakes and can be
worked Just as soon as it quits raining
and that one never strikes rock when
blowing, while they raise the finest 20
tatoes In the world, all Of which claims
are true beyond question. Clover. cows
pigs and potatoes will do much to
make sandy farms profitable.

ready workers about him, but he has
no particular desire TO encourage these
volunteers" whose efforts to appraise
the wealth of the suburbs would signify
that the figures will never go on the

him or the police Immediately Of their
whereabouts.
