Happy the Modern Farmer.

Fremont Tribune: The modern
farmer cuts wide swath. Formerly
he wrought with dinky machinery-a
small plow and light team. Now he
sweeps through the field turning over
a broad zone of black earth, preform-
ing vastly more than he formerly did
in the same time. The builders Of
machinery have provided him with
conveniences that were formerly un-
dreamed. Instead Of employing two
tiny mules as his motive power he
now uses four sturdy horses, or, per-
adventure, an imposing engine Of
colossal type that will turn over twen-
ty acres in a single day. This is a
time Of triumph for mechanical geni-
Us in agriculture. But some day,
when the earth's Inhabitants begin
to jostle each other more and more
and the disciples of Malthus insist on
hanging out the S. r. 0. sign, there
will be returning to the simpler and
slower, albeit more thorough methods
for it is thus the human race is
doomed and destined to move in cy-
cles. But today the grand old farmer
enjoys his sense Of power. He realizes
he is doing things and the piece Of
that takes three rows in
stead of one is the piece he buys.
