A TALK WITH FARMERS
QUALITY THE KEYNOTE

Dickinson N. D., February u, 1911.
To The DichinsontPre sa:
The North Dakota Dairyman's conven-
ton held at Jamestown on February 8
and 9 was an unqualified success, just
as our Dry Farming Congress was here.
Many prominent speakers delivered
addresses that will certainly bear fruit.
A large crowd attended each session,
and l am pleased to say they were an
interested audience. Many prominent
railroad men were in attendance, among
them Mr.. Ballard of the New York
Central line. a gentleman from the c.
B. & O., and several N. P. men. Mr..
Andrews. I think the name was, assis-
tant to Pres. Elliot. proved a genial and
affable gentleman. and I think. created
a world of good feeling between the
dairymell and butter makers and the N.
P. He spoke Of their relationship as il
is and Is it should be and as he hoped
1t would be. It seemed vastly different
from years ago, to have the trouble
taken to introduce all of us farmers tc

used to think if we came near one Of

was really q pleasure to see the interest

Every speaker emphasized the neces-
siy of quality in their respective busi-
ness.
So Farmers, would it not be we'll for
us to look for a little more quality in
ourselves. in our farms, and in our pro-
fession as farmers? We might ask our
selves. what does all this interest in our
profession by business men of the city.

it, that they see and realize q vast
amount of improvement can be made in
our present system of farming and dairy

effort, to aid,us to make two spears of

1t seems the most necessary perquisite

Every writing l ever read was from
the farmer up. But were we no told by
eminent authority, a short time ago at
our Dry Farming Congress that the

That he was the only man who could

Now if we attain that high quality
necessary to make two spears of grass
grow where but one grows now. and
make two bushels of wheat gov where
but one grows now, and to make our
cows produce two gallons of milk where
now we only get one. and so on down
through all our farming operations, why

We certainly have attained a degree of
intelligence and efficiency second to no
other business OF profession.
