There are many people in farming
districts possessed of a few acres of
Land In fairly good filth who do not
know how to utilize them to advan-
tage. Surrounded as they are by large
farms, they have an idea that there
is not land enough to make anything
out of it While it is true that local
conditions have much to do with what
this small area can best be used for.
in general way it is safe to say that
if the owner Will do some intelligent
studying he can find a way of making
even a rev acres profitable. OF course,
much depends upon the man and his
resources. If one is naturally inclined
to fruit-growing, knows something
about the business, and is near fair
" good market, he ought 10 make the
few acres bring him golden returns
The same with poultry raising. In
other sections it might be the best
plan to turn the small area into
meadow, particularly if it was suited
to grass and labor was high and hay
brought a good price All things must
be considered in attempting to make
small area profitable with crops, but
it can be done if one will work out
the problem with intelligence.

Trouph for YOUNG stock

One of the troubles in feeding stock
is the waste of food, and there should
be some plan on every farm where
there is a number of heads of sheep or
calves so that the feeding could be
done at the smallest possible expense
and at the greatest possible saving
a trough built in the following man.
ner will be found saver OF feed.
While it may be made any length de-
sired, ten feet is a good length, and it
should be fifteen inches wide and, the
trough proper, ten inches deep.
Strong end pieces are placed in po-
sition so that the trough may be raised
from the ground to the desired height,
the trough proper being placed about
foot from the top of the side pieces,
and on the very top of the side pieces
a strip Of wood is placed. thus prevent
ing the animal from getting its feet
into the trough or jumping over it. A
strong board is placed at the end Of
each upright side, close to the ground,
and these boards are held in place by
