To get horse not closely related to
our mares, and suitable in every way
to head our Clydesdale stud, we very
reluctantly parted with our almost
peerless stallion, Star No. 1926, that
made the seasons of 1909 and 1910 in
Cresco, to the satisfaction of so many
progressive and intelligent horsemen.
Now we offer up to your critical judg-
ment and for your esteemed patronage
the pure bred ClydesdaIe stallion
DALE" No. 1927, full brother in
blood to "Star" No. 1926. Although
Dale" was placed second to that
pleasing winner in the show ring, he is
superior to him in some points. Both
of these stations have been tested
as to breeders on our North Star
Farm, and in the aize and quality of
their colts from the same mares, they
are about a tie. If any difference
''Dale" has it on "Star."
Dale's fee is Sis 90 to insure live
colt. Care will be taken to guard
against accident. but all mares are ut
owners risk. Owners of mares who
dispose of or remove same from the
community will be held for service fee
unless satisfactory evidence of not in
fOal is produced.
Dale will make the season at Whites
Livery Barn, Cresco. with the except
ion of Mondays at J. Chubback s, Tues
days at Jess Bowdcn's. Bonair. and
Thursdays at Eugene Towards.

Twenty years ago farmer In east
ern Iowa started business. His as
sets consisted of fair health and q
good wife. His liabilities were in the
form of notes covering the value Of
all stock and machinery on the farm.
Today that farmer lives near town on
seventy acres of his own land worth
5000 per acre. Besides this, he owns
two one hundred and sixty acre farms
and section of unbroken land in
Dakota. ~
You ask the secret Of his success?
Two words reveal it-economy, oppor-
tunity. The advantages derived from
both are the direct result of the use Of
brains and business principles. He
says himself that it matters little how
much a man may know or how hard
he may work if, by virtue Of correct
planning, he does not use that knowl.
edge and that labor to bring the best
results.
Economy is the first reason for his
success. He realizes full we'll that a
dollar saved is dollar earned" but
he does not fail to spend it II there
Is promise of reasonable returns. Good
spending is virtue as we'll as good
saving. His is the economy which
teaches that it is more profitable to
keep a good hired man at $35 than
poor one at 500. His machinery lasts
longer than that of his neighbor be-
cause it is always In good repair.
Sloughs on his farm are tiled and
made tillable. Woven wire fences,
by preventing cuts and scars, have
Increased the value Of his horses. On
his farm, colts and mares do the most
of the work. Geldings are fattened
and sold Every animal. every bit Of
land, every piece of machinery must
pay for its keep and return reason
able profit.
Planning to ecunomize Is charac-
teristic of this man. He tries never
to make a move unless for a definite
purpose. When he hauls OF hogs he
plans to bring back feed, lumber or
needed in order to prevent
an extra trip for it. He greases the
harness on rainy days. In winter, he
breaks the colts and gets them used
to work before the spring blowing be-
gins. He picks out and tests his seed
corn before the approach Of planting
time. He shows the hired man how
to get the most done with the least
work. Once hay rope broke. Sew
eral men were employed and they all
came into the barn to watch the farm
er splice the rope. He noticed the loss
of time and labor and Immediately
one hand to hoe in the gar
den, another to cut more hay for the
next days work and third to start
the chores SO that they could be more
quickly done in the evening. All these
were simple and short tasks, but they
had to be done. The thoughtless farm
er would have allowed his men to lie
idle for an hour or two. This mans

actions but illustrate the value OF
brains in farming-the possibilities of
economizing both time and labor.
But there is another characteristic
which contributes to the success Of
the farmer. It IL the taking advan-
tage Of opportunities. When given
definite work there are many men who
make a reasonable success. To see
an opportunity, however. to better
ones self and to take advantage Of it
Is a power which few attain. This
farmer saw there was good market
for pure bred stock. He found by ex-
perience that 1t costs no more to feed
a good animal than . poor one. He
found also that little extra care
given a we'll bred animal would great.
ly repay his labor. He started con.
servatively at first, and built up q re-
putation for raising meritorious stock.
He sold bulls at 500 to 5000 and
boars at $50 to $35. They were bar.
gains at the price. They made pro-
fit for the buyer and returned to the
farmer higher price than common
stock. This was but taking advan-
tage of a condition-an opportunity,
that presents ITSELF 1t was the appli-
cation of brains to farming. 1t was
the watching for opportunity that
made the farmer sell much of his
timothy hay and buy concentrated
feeds. BY so doing, he raised the fer
tility of his land because of the in
creased value Of the manure produced
1t was that characteristic that made
him study means of investing his
money. 1t was that characteristic that
made him purchase land the rising

some profit.
He was merely taking advantage Of
opportunity when he bought lot of
grade heifers one spring and put them

small cost. There were 80 head in
all. They cost $50. About 20 were
in calf. The calves resulting sold for

calves were $1,O60-more than 100
per cent advance on cost The same
money invested in steers in the spring
would hardly have paid six per cent
interest besides the rent. The chance
came-the farmer saw it and took ad-
vantage Of 1t.
Such are the means by which one
farmer has succeeded. They are sim
pie and definite. Careful attention to
details and brain farming produced
the results. That mans farm is not
only place to live, it is place of
business. Such can be the farm of
every man. The same forethought
and economy used by this farmer to
produce financial results may also be
used to beautify the home and make
farm life attractive. The example
itself to our consideration.
