Can Farmers Afford to Fieure7

Many farmers seem 10 have dread of figures in connection with the husi- ness of their farms They seem 10 think that farming that is measured by figures won't pan out. but f they
 go 1t blind" they will get through in some way. Is this true? Is it a safe plan to rely on?
 How long would a merchant. banker, manufacturer or other business man stay in business if he worked on such a plan as that? He would soon be unable 10 know where he was at. He would not know whether he was on the road to success or to failure. And the probability is that he would not remain in business very long.
 But business men work on a differ- ent plan. They figure and keep ac- counts. They know the cost of each particular article or 2ssaetion and

SOME REMARKS FROM .KfNNE.
 SOFA EDITORS.
What They Think of Western Canada.

A party of editors from number of cities and towns of Mime sota recently made a tour of Western Canada. and having returned to their homes they are now telling in their respective newspapers of what they saw on their canadian trip. The West St. Paul Times recalls the excursion of the Minnesota editors from Winnipeg to the Pacific Coast ten years ago. Re ferring to what has happened in the interval the writer says Thousands or miles of new railway lines have been built, and the development of the country has made marvellous strides. Millions of acres, then lying In their wild and untouched state. have since been transferred into grain fields. Towns have sprung up as if by the wand of a magician. and their development is now in full progress. It is a revelation, record of conquest by settlement that is remarkable"
 The Hutchinson Leader character izes Western Canada as "a great coun- try undeveloped. The summer out ing il says, was an eye-opener to every member of the party, even those who were on the excursion through Western Canada ten years ago, over considerable of the territory covered this year, being amazed at the prog ress and advancement made in that short space of time. The time will come when Western Canada will be the bread-basket of the world. It was delightful outing through a great country of wonderful possibil- ities and resources
 Since the visit of these editors the Government has revised it's land regu- lations and it is now possible to se- cure 160 acres of wheat land at S3.0 an acre in addition to the 160 acres that may be homesteaded.
 The crops of 1908 have been splen- did, and reports from the various dis tricts show good yields, which at pres ent prices will give excellent profits to the farmers.
 From Milestone, Saskatchewan. there are reported yields of thirty bush els of spring wheat to the acre, while the average is about 20 bushels. The quality of grain to be shipped from this point will be about 600,000 bush els. Information regarding free lands and transportation will be freely given by the Canadian Government Agents.

UPWARD START After Changing from Coffee to Postum

Many talented person is kept back because of the interference of coffee with the nourishment Of the body
 This is especially so with those whose nerves are very sensitive. as is often the case with talented persons. There is simple, easy way to get rid of coffee evils end Tenn. laGys ex- perience along these lines is worth considering. She says:
 Almost from the beginning of the use of coffee t hurt my stomach By the time I was fifteen I was almost a nervous wreck, nerves all unstrung. no strength to endure the most trivial thing, either work or fun.
 There was scarcely anything could eat that would agree with me The little I did eat seemed to give me more trouble than it was worth finally quit coffee and drank hot water. but there was 50 little food could digest. I was literally starving; was 50 weak could not sit up long at a time.
 Tt was then a friend brought me not cup or Postum. I drank part of it and after an hour I felt as though I had had something to eat - felt strengthened That was about five years ago, and after continuing Post um in, place of coffee and gradually getting stronger, to-day I can eat and digest anything 1 want, walk as much as l want. My nerves are steady.

American Farmer.

The American is on top. He holds the destiny of this country in his grasp and yet he is not grasping.
 He makes few demands and asks few favors.
 He only wants what properly belongs to him and if these things are secured every interest in the nation is served.
 Among the few things which he craves is to be governed so econimi- cally, that the burden of taxes may be lowered.
 He asks for lower freight rates that the products of his farm may reach a market where the consumer can pur- chase and consume.
 He asks that the laws which place an unjust burden on him be repealed that exact justice to all may be SC cured.
 ! He abhors all laws granting special privileges and opposes all measures which build up fortunes for one class and impose burdens upon another class
 He lays TO claim to superior citizen shin. but looks with suspicion upon the sycophant who lawns at his feet.
 He admires manly independence of the seeker after political prefer ment and dispises fraud and political cowardice
 He is courageous and generous, atient and forgiving: but will never -lbscribe to the doctrine that the g oils belong to the victor.
 He knows that there should be no oils. for spells are tainted with de-
 )tion and deception is born or oa.runtiou -Oklahoma Farmer.

The prices reduced prices Don't i

stable prices on our products. Some tarmers do figure carefully and keep accounts correctly And when they do they are sure to learn that a consider able part of the business of the aver age farmer falls below cost instead of giving the farmer profit Then when they learn where the drain is, the next step is to stop t and do only those things on which they can realize profit.
 In order for farmers as a class 10 become business men and thus be able to protect their rights. il is necessary for all or most of them to keep accounts carefully.
 Every time a farmer produces and markets a crop or grain. hay or any 1fhing else he ought 10 know exactly how many days work was devoted to it, and what each days work is worth no matter whether the work is done by himself and family or hy hired help. Then he ought 10 figure care fully not only the first cost Of imple- ments. harness. etc. but also the natural wear and tear as well as amout paid fer repairs and the time spent in going 10 the shop.
 oh" says someone. farmer must not count his time O. he will g1 left sure. Oh my brother there is where you are wrong. II you are not making wages for your time in addition to all of your expenses you mad better quit farming and hunt ali ether job.
 A farmer ought to keep an account with each particular field and know not only the cost Of labor and imple- ments used on it. but also the value of fertilizers applied, and as near as possible. the amount Of fertility drawn from the soil By the crop pro dueed on it. Because when We reduce the fertility of our farms We are like 8 business man who makes draw On his capital Many farmers imagine they are increasing their wealth, when in reality they are only transferring so much from the value of their farm 10 their pocket or their bank account.
 Again carefully kept figures in the dairy department Of our farming will often show us that one COW yields a handsome profit while another does not pay for her feed.
 In such cases the careful farmer will dispose of the poor COW and take ell the better care of the good one
 Some hocks of chickens pay well while others do not pay expenses if we would carefully figure the value Of what they eat and what they waste. The remedy should be to either quit the chicken, business or use better care In the management of our flocks and heir surroundings.
 And thus it is throughout a long list of the different departments of our business. Farming is a compn- eated business and requires not only brain and brawn but real business management.
 Brother and sister farmers let us take up all of these matters in the local union paper and discuss them in a way that will result in greater pleasure and profit to ourselves and families.

DR.. Holton Defended.

A recent editorial in the Burlington
News leads DIR. G.. s. Caverly of Rut
land, president of the state board OF
health, to remark as follows:
Reading an editorial in last evening Is
News entitled "Water and Smallpox
one is led to wonder if the writer takes
himself seriously or expects Others to
do so. Lest Others may. it may not be
generally known that DIR. Holton, the
secretary of the state board of health,
is not in active practice of his profess
sion and that no cases of eruptive
disease in his town of Brattleboro came
to his attention until those which he
promptly diagnosed as smallpox. 1t is
probably true that there had been is0-
lated cases (some six or seven / think)
of an eruptive disease in Brattleboro
since quarantine in July and that this
disease was of so mild character and
its nature so vague that it had escaped
detection as genuine smallpox. DR..
Holton, however, saw some of these
cases. When his attention was called
to them early in November. he dag
nosed them correctly and from that
time has taken the public into his CON
6dence and with the local health officer
has done everything possible to stamp
nut the disease.
The example of the Brattleboro au-
,horities in this epidemic would be
worthy of emulation by Burlington or
my other town in like plight.
