WE had occasion the other day to go back
w through our last years volume of The
Progressive Farmer and-all modesty
aside-we found some very interesting things
in it, We, of course, found lot of things
which did not please u.s. it was easy to see how
the paper could have been changed for the better
in many ways. In fact, we never turn out an
issue without seeing, after it is done, where
it could have been improved. For all that,
however, we decided-just between ourselves
that The Progressive Farmer last year was a
pretty practical, helpful sort of paper, and that
it had in it some things still worth remembering.
For example, we found as sub-head in an
article by Mr. A. L. French this sentence: The
best boss is the man who can do the Job him
self" We should like to commend this idea
to many of our friends who have trouble with
their labor. We can abuse the Negro until we,
too get black in the face. and it will not make
