Tenant farming may bring profit to
the tenant, but it works i'll to the farm,
nine times out of ten. To be sure,
there are good and bad tenants, but
human nature is the same everywhere,
and the farm which the man does not
own is not going to receive the care
which the owner would give it. The
tenant is interested in the farm only
to the extent of paying his rental and
realizing as large profit as is pos
sible.
