KEEP OUT OF DEBT.

Two-thirds of the people would be
infinitely better off and much happier
If they never under any circumstances
went into debt Debt with these Is the
begetter Of poverty and financial slav-
cry, voluntary bondage often lightly
assumed in the first place, the chains
of which become more tightly riveted
the harder the victim tries to escape.
There is no ration Of food SO poor, no
work so hard or mental, no suit Of
clothing so patched, that they should
demand the contraction of a debt to
escape them. PAY as you go" will
make every poor man independent.
Earn your money before you spend
1t. Unpaid grocery bills, a chalk score
at the saloon, maturing obligations
which have first mortgage on next
months salary or next years crops,
always make a man feel cheap and
discouraged. 1t is simply surprising
how easy it is to get along without
things which you think you want and
really do not need. and it Is these
things for which most men get into
debt. The man who pays cash gets
the lowest price and discount on his
bills. There is perhaps no simpler mot
to for many people to secure more hap
piness and comfort in living than just
this-to get out of debt and stay out.

TEN CENT CORN.

During the year 1895 the west was
dealing with the problem of ten cent
corn, and it was dandy proposition
take it all round. 1t was used as fuel
in competition with five dollar soft
coal, and one smart farmer in Nebras-
ka saved his corn crop from the clutch
es of the sheriff on the ground that the
law exempted years supply Of fuel
for the family. Those days have gone
never to return. The limits Of the corn
growing belt are now well known. The
ever hungry millions of Europe have
found out the edible and nutritive value
Of corn as food, scores Of needed and
most valuable byproducts have been
developed by chemistry and science
from the cereal which twenty years ago
was rated as good for nothing but hog
feed, while today no one subject Is at
tracing so much attention and inter
est as the further development Of this
wonderful plant and the discovery of
the ways and means of growing 1t In
greatest perfection. If you have good
corn farm, keep it; If not for yourself,
at least as splendid heritage for your
children. If you are raising forty bush
els to the acre, learn how to grow
eighty. for 1t can be done. If you are
wasting all the fodder, learn how to
save it, for every average corn grower
can double his crop and his income
from it. Wake up to your splendid op-
pOrtunitieS.

TENANT FARMERS.

The tenant farmer bids fair to be-
come as much of factor in the agri-
culture of the west and northwest as
he is in England. Men with money
are finding out that good land is first
Of all safe investment and, second,
that the annual return which may be
obtained from renting it Is at least
equal to the net profit to be derived
from any other investment. There is
one difficulty in this-that we have not
as yet developed class of farmers
who are content to remain tenants, the
best ones only renting land until such
time as they can make enough money
to buy a farm of their own, just as
young ladies teach school as a make
shift until they can get married. We
have before referred to the great ben
eft to both landlord and tenant which
would accrue if only land leases We're
made for longer periods and definite
system Of stock farming put into prac-
tice. This would prevent the impov-
erishment of the soil which inevitably
results where cash rents, grain raising
and selling are in vogue. We pity the
farm and its owner where there Is n
new tenant each year

UNPRoFITABLE cows.

When man sets a standard for the
measure Of a days work to be render
ed by the man whom he hires to help
him with his farm work, and most
men do, why is it not equally good
business management to set stand
ard of productiveness for the cow
which he feeds and milks? Most dali
ries carry lot of lady boarders who
toll not, neither do they pay their way,
but they are kindly treated, hold re-
spectacle positions in COW society and
eat their heads off every year. 1t Is
now an easy thing to test the herd
know just what each COW is doing and
just what she is worth. The average
butter product Of two Of the big dairy
states, Iowa and Minnesota, is less
than 100 pounds per COW. This $50
pounds of butter will bring about IS
cents per pound when sold as cream to
the local creamery, amounting to $27.
Now, if a man is keeping his dairy
cows on farm worth $50 per acre it
costs just about $27 to keep the cow,
and all the net profit he has left for
pulling her teats for $50 days is calf.
1t Is easy to see that every additional
pound of butter which he can make his
cow produce over 80 pounds is net
profit. No COW should be kept MIXED
and fused with unless she will make
at least 200 pounds of butter during
one tactical period or one year. There
Is just one exception to this conclusion,
and that where man keeps very high
grade Angus, ShOrthorns or Herefords,
in which case, if he can secure the low
butter average referred to and get
calf at nine months old worth S25 for
baby beef, he can pay out with fair
margin Of profit. Establishing 200
pounds Of butter as the standard of
product for each cow MIXED would
thin out the dairy herds in great shape,
but it would be done with profit to the
owner just the same.

1t is worth remembering that hem
lock plank will not last more than two
thirds as long as white pine when used
as planking for bridges. 1t is not that
the hemlock will rot more quickly, but
it splinters up under the wear by sharp
shod teams to far greater extent
than does the pine, and it does not
seem to make any difference whether
the wear is had lengthwise or cross
wise, the result is the same. Where
hemlock is used for this purpose it
should be bought at much greater
margin of difference than there usually
Is between it and pine.
