FOR FARMERS
Constant Source of Income.

The advantages of dairying are so
we'll understood it seems unnecessary
% enumerate at length, says the Kan
sas Farmer. The milking OF few cows
supplies Il daily cash income and con-
rertS roughage which otherwise has no
cash value into a condensed cash prod
uct. Dairying does not interfere with
the growing of grain crops. Feeds for
the milk COW grow when grain crops
fail. Dairying converts comparatively
idle time between the crop growing
seasons into cash. This latter point Is
especially important. A year round
business from which cash returns are
obtained is the thing most needed by
the farmer. particularly so while be is
home building. The man who depends
upon grain crops is n gambler with the
weather, insect pests and markets to
the fullest extent The milking of a
few cows. resulting in a monthly in
come of SD to $40, removes the gam
bling element to a very great extent,
and failure of crops does not cripple
as when crop farming is the main de-
pendence. When dairying supplies the
income necessary to take care of the
farm expenses from month TO month
the grocery and dry goods bills and
other necessary expenditures do not
accumulate and absorb the income to
be realized from the growing crop.
