Making, the Farm Pay.

When David Rankin, the worlds
largest farmer, was asked to tell the
secret of his success Che began by
borrowing Sc and died worth s6'ooo'-
600, all made in farming) he answer
ed promptly: Success in farming
consists in making every minute,
every cent and every seed count. A
good workman is cheap at any price
and a shiftless, careless man is dear
if he works for nothing"
Not long before he died, Mr.. Ran
kin amplified his views. ITO make a
profit the farmer, just as any other
manufacturer, must reduce the cost
of production" he said. Il saw this
long ago and when I saved hands
wages by the use of new piece OF
machinery 1 felt pretty good; that
was making money for me. We
farmers must not only keep eternally
at reducing the cost of production
but plan way to get most out of our
product. Use your head as well as
your hands, for it is the little savings
that make up the profits at the end
of the year. It takes sharpening OF
wits all the time"
The fertilizer problem is one of
the most serious confronting the
farmer to-day. Shall he open up his
fields to the commercial article or
shall he husband his own resources
and maintain the fertility of the soil
by returning to it the elements Of
which it was robbed in producing a
crop? The answer is simple. A ton
of average fresh manure contains ten
pounds Of nitrogen, five pounds OF
phosphoric acid and ten pounds OF
potash. At the prices which these
elements of plant food would cost
in commercial fertilizers the value
in manure would be $3.50 a ton.
This does not take into account the
value of the organic matter furnish
ed, which may be greater than that
of the plant food. That this theo-
retical valuation is very conservative
is shown by the result of many field
experiments; by various experiment
stations and by practical farmers.
The value as shown by the increased
crops has equalled and often exceed
cd this theoretical valuation.
An experiment conducted in Jasper
county, Missouri, resulted In an acre
which had been treated with eight
tons of manure yielding sixty-fve
bushels of corn, while an acre i'm
mediately adjoining had not
been treated with natural fertilizer
yielded only twenty-nine and a
half bushels. Experiments conduct
ed at Columbia, in the same State,
resulted as follows: A tract on which
corn had been grown continuously
for twenty years yielded only three
bushels to the acre. Immediately
adjoining, a tract planted to corn for
twenty years but which had been lib
orally manured, yielded thirty BUSH
els to the acre. Another tract, like
wise adjoining on which corn had
been rotated with oats and clover
yielded forty-nine bushels to the acre.
Still fourth tract, Immediately ad-
joining on which scientific manage
ment had been practiced to the extent
of both rotating crops and manuring
the field, yielded sixty bushels to the
acre.
