Farming in Wisconsin, says an
expert in the Chicago Record
Herald, is conducted In the "old
fashioned" way. There are no
irrigation projects and the prob
lens of dry farming are avoided.
The state has opportunities for
thousands of farmers and IS
bending every effort to induce
settlers to take up the lands.
Hundreds of new settlers are
taking up homes this spring on
farms acquired during the winter
In the stump land country IN
the northern sections ofthe state
The lands are fertile and valu-
able, yet they may be purchased
IN MANY counties for as low as
SIS an acre. They are mostly pri-
xate ownership.
The Glands when cleared are
unusually fertile, and aresuitable
for diversified farming. the pro-
ducts including, even alfalfa,
which is being raised to sorle ex-
tent. The country is becoming
dotted with the farmsteads OF
now prosperous settlers, who
awaited themselves of the lands
years ago. and have them all
cleared. These lands are held to
be. worth from $50 to 500 per
acre.
The state contends that these
stump lands have fifty years the
advantage of lands which were
settled fifty years ago, being at
the beginning. nather than tow
ard the end OF their usefulness.
Three tons of hay to the acre is
not an unusual yield, while the
soil will psaduee- fsoE' twent:. to
thirty bushels of wheat to the
acre. The territory also COM
prises one of the best grass coun-
tries to be found anywhere, and
as many cattle can be fattened
on forty acres as could in older
localities on sixty acres.
Some of the land has, consider
able timber lefr standing and the
market is. close at hand. This
work will keep the new settler
and his team occupied the. year
round and he can give as much
Or as little time as he chooses to
the development of his land.
All told, Wisconsin offers plenty
of opportunities to the landseekz
er, but the opportunities are not
for he lazy.
