BRAINS ON THE FARM

The farmer who is a money maker
studies his profession, is up-to-date and
like the man from Missouri you have
to ''show" him
For the successful farmer learned
| long ago that ttwe heads are better
than one" and that a careful combi-
nation of his own ''brain force" with
that of others in his own line will do
more for him than he can hope to
achieve alone In other words, he
judges success by results attained.
If you have theory on rotation of
crops, fertilization, breeding of live
stock or method of soil preparation,
you will be piled with questions and
demand made that you prove your as
sertion by weightand measure.
If you claim better variety of grain
the farmer will not hazard crop by
planting his field until he has first put
it to the test, and if the test is salts
factory, he will not be slow to adopt it.
The farmer may be from the coun-
try, but he no longer has ebay seed in
his hair, " unless by test it has proven
to be of specially high grade and
fertile variety.
If you claim a certain breed of hog
will grow to larger size, produce
more bacon, grow larger hams and
yield larger profit to the breeder, you
must first "show" him.
1t you have distinct type of horse
with the necessary qualities that make
it worth while to raise and which is
certain to command a good price on
the market, you can win the farmer by
proving results and in no other way.
If you say certain kind of cow will
give more and richer milk, yield larg
er percentage of butter fat and pros
duce more profit on the same ratio of
feed; it's up to you to produce results.
Why?
Because the farmer of today con-
ducts his business. with good hard
headed business judgement and not by
guess work.
This is not selfshness, it's common
sense applied to theory which has
''made good"
The farmer of today has ample facii-
ties for getting accurate information
and he is taking advantage of it to get
results that pay Nothing has afforded
