If have a team and | can not EN-
ploy them so as to pay for thelI
feed and a reasonable rate of interest
on The money have invested, then Is
LIT good investment? No, certainly
not.
We'll, my dear friend, you are daily
practicing the later proposition You
have property that does not bring you
any interest. You have property that
is wear by year eating itself away III
taxes. If 1t were a calf you would
dispose of it Immediately because you
could see it getting thinner and thin
ner every week. Yet you Will hold on
to the old vacant lot overgrown with
weeds and groan little when the
| tax bills comes round. Why not sell
this bed of weeds that looms up be-
side your own home and disgusts you
every time you look at IT, say, sell
| it at reasonable price and invest 1t
in something that will bring you an in
terest. Help to boost for your town.
Don't ask double what you know 1t is
worth and thereby discourage invest
ment.
After this, it is up to the big far
mer to sell part of his 100 acres of
land that is half farmed, and better
I 4 1o1T
so acres will produce as much as the
1907 his taxes will only be one'half as
much; his machinery will have to
travel over one-third as much
ground Weeds will have only
half as much ground to grow
on, and the farmer will have
twive as much time to spend on each
acre. We need a farm inspector so
that the man of weeds and wild oats
will be made to keep his farm clean
When the Strawberry project pay
ments become due the big half attend
ed farm must go. What we need here
Is smaller farms and better farming
Don't delay in disposing of your sur
plus property while high prices last.
Property goes up and down the same
as any Otnef property
Moral;-Have nothing so long, that
doesn't pay for its keeping. Make
every piece of property pay you as
high rate of interest as you can.
