How the Greatest Farm In United

Prudent Farmer Who Started with

and owns and Manages a.
900 Acres of Land.

The state Of Missouri has the dis
tinction OF having within her borders
as citizen the most extensive indi-
vidnal farmer in the United States, IL
not in the civilized word. He is Da-
yid Rankin, of Tarkio Mo-, the owner
OF IA ranches, including more than 22,-
coo acres OF as fine black soil as the
sun ever shone on. The New York Sun
says: Mr.. Rankin is the largest stock
feeder in the world He buys more
corn than any other farmer in the
United States, and most of 1t is fed to
stock on his farms. Besides the ex-
tensive farming operations, Mr.. Ran
kin is interested In many other enter
prises In appearance he is a typical
farmer. lie is six feet two inches tall
and weighs 1870 pounds.s Each day ne
rides over his farms and gives orders
to his foreman. He frequently stops
on the way to assist in pulling steer
out Of a mud hole or to build shed
to protect fat porker from the rays
OF the hot sun He is as familiar with
the men employed on his farms as
housewife is with her domestic duties.
TO the person who has never visited
the Rankin farms the problem Of car
rying on the work seems to be a great
task, but the system is so thorough
and complete that the management Is
easy.
MIR. Rankin owns about $4,000 acres
Of land; besides this he leases consid-
cradle land adjoining him. 1t takes
about 700 teams and 220 men to do his
work during the busy months of sum-
mer, while the crops are being put in,
cultivated and harvested. Each ranch
has foreman who has full charge OF
the work on the one ranch under his
supervision he is required to make

II is in this manner that Peruna

1t has. The secret of its success is that
1t makes cures. 1t cures old cases of

Keep Up Your Flock.

Have you ever considered why it is
that some farmers and poultry-men re-
alize SO much from their 1ocks? They
are the men who introduce new blood
into the flock every year or two. If poul-
try is left to inbred for several years it
becomes more diminutive each succeed
ing year until new blood is introduced
Some introduce new blood by buying
hens and pullets, as this is much less
expensive than buying cocks enough to

one dozen hens.
would suggest buying new rooster
each season, as the flock increases in
size. or always arranging to trade roos-
ters raised on your farm for the same
from another flock, as that would re-
move all possible chance of inbreeding
10 The flock. The poultry would be
larger and in better health, therefore
would bring better market price than
run down stock would However, if you
feel you could not buy outright enough
cocks at the price you would have to
pay for full grown ROSTERS, you have
still another solution to the problem -
Instead, buy or exchange eggs with some
Of the neighbOrs who keep poultry of
the same breed as you are raising-kill
the pullets-this will give you ROSTERS
for the next year. You will have to ex.
change eggs with different families. try
ing not to get eggs or poultry in any
way related to your own if you wish to
make a success with poultry, especially
If you raise it for the city market. Or
tits better, if you can afford it, to send
directly to some poultry breeder for the
eggs.-V. Leah Kettering, Ohio.
