ASSET OR Z liability.
(By wv. Palmer, Agri. Editor,

The grain crop. is a liability the
cattle crop an asset. This is the way
I'D, H. ebster, Dean Kansas Agri-
cultural College compares the grainn
and stock raising. Il. .,i. hi B. f. .s,$'
|. n This may seem a little severe, but
an analysis of the two will bear out
the statement. Grain farming reduces
the fertility Stock raising increases
1T. Grain farming reduces the humus
in the soil. Sotck raising increases it.
Grain farming spoils the mechanical
condition of the sol stock, raising
improves it. q Grain raising fosters
weeds, plant diseases and insects |
and stock raising decreases them" I
Grain raising results in decreased
yields. Stock raising, increases thenEs
Stock raising develops thrift pay az
you go, Grain raising develops the
credit system. I'LL Grain raising brings,
the mortgage. Stock raising pays It
off. The labor for grain raising is ex-
[1pensiye that for stock raising is,
Icheaper In that it is engaged by the
|year Grain raising is. dependent on
1.-THE season ten resulting in failure.
Stock raising is quite Independent of
the season. Taking care Of stock is
q splendid training for children. Peo-
Iple with the instinct for stock raising
are and have been the dominant peo-
| pie III the world. Grain raising is
soil robber; hence il SIS only possible
(on new soil and then only for a short
time. ,3l.d II
The aim of every farmer should be
Ito gradually work into some kind of
stock raising. The ideal is to mix
grain raising and stock raising. This
results in rotation of crops. In this
way as much grain can be grown on
| the farm ais though it were all given
Ito grain, as the yield will be larger,
| due to increased fertility, less number
Iof weeds, less plant disease, better
mechanical condition of the soil, etc.
The only permanent agriculture is
that which is based on stock raising,
and permanent agriculture means prof
