along roadways. AS stock food it is
unexcelled and gives a color and quality

Several varieties of oats flourish in

With ten acres put into the cultivation
of various garden truck the yield will

Potatoes return less money but are far

runs from 125 to IT'S bushels to the acre
and up to 800 bushels in well prepared

Cabbage grows exceptionally well in

$4,000 a Year Profit

$4,000 a Year EFaOfsf
This is the lowest estimate OF the earn
ings from one of these 100 acre farms.
To show how conservative it really is, let
us consider one definite case, that of John
H., of Sawyer County. Mr.. H.
came to Wisconsin seven years ago, with
a deed to 100 acses of uncut land. He
cleared $3.50 last year. He had little
money at the start and depended almost
entirely upon his own efforts. Today he
has 80 of his 100 acres devoted to pastur-
ing. His profit last year was 81 1900 from
the dairy. In sheep he made $500 more.
Five acres of potatoes netted $3.50, and
six acres in strawberries, onions and
other garden truck brought IN S5OO. len
acres in buckwheat and ten in flax Melted
5000, and the other 40 acres were put IN
feed corn, oats and other fodder tor the
stock Mr.. H. expects to run above
$4,000 next year. And you can do just
as well-hundreds of other men are.
Wonderful BARRY Country
Dairying is the big profit maker of
Northern Wisconsin. The grass gets in
everywhere the sun strikes and is green
even under the snow-indicating rich
ness that is unexcelled. The country
abounds in creameries. It is never diff
cult to dispose of your products, for
North Wisconsin butter is getting rep
