Near the larger cities it would prob
ably be better to grow some of the
more perishablc truck crops and to
keep one horse for marketing pur-
poses. but in most country places the
system as outlined here would be more
satisfactory and would require only
two horses.
In addition to four COWS and two
horses the owner of such n farm could

Assuming that tho farmer under
stands his business and is on soil
and in a region adapted to the type
of farming here outlined. it ought to
be possible on such farm To secure
an income somewhat as follows: The
five acres OF potatoes ought to pro
duCe five hundred bushels at least, and
If the man is n good potato grower
the field can be made to average more
than two hundred bushels.
One ought to average at least fifty
cents a bushel for the potatoes This
would make $3.50 for this field The
three acres of cabbage ought to pro
duce $500. and the two acres OF
onions ought to produce $500. The
onions require a good deal more work
than the other crops. hence. the
smaller acreage of them. After the
farm is started the farmer must be
guided by his experience. and IT
might prove wise to put the entire
five acres in onions. provided labor is
available.
If the four COWS kept are good ones
and the farmer Is not justified in
keeping any other kind-one of them

HEALTH IN DEEP BREATHING
One OF the Most Important Considera-
lions for Man Who Would Work
to Full Capacity.

No piece of advice that the physi-
clan can give will bear more frequent
repetition than the pithy sentence:
Breathe deeply" 1t is a perfectly
simple rule of health. yet II Is con-
stantly broken. There Is no reason
why our lungs should not have all the
fresh air they need for their work:
the supply is unlimited. But In our
folly we refuse TO give them their
fair share of 1t. because we are too
lazy to breathe deeply.
We go on from day TO day. drawing
In little. inadequate puffs Of air, living
from hand to mouth, as II were; and
then we wonder why we feel tired and
nervous. ftu
There are two ways to learn to
breathe. If our powers of self-disci
pline are poor. as Is the case with
most insufficient breathers, 1t Is q
good plan to Join gymnasium or
calistbenic class and learn to use the
lungs as a baby learns to use its feet
and hands. But remember that les
sons In breathing do no good II the
scholar thinks he Is absolved from his
task except when he is in the class.
A simpler method for those who
have not time or opportunity for the
gymnasium is TO turn life's daily rou
tine into continuous discipline In
breathing. II the poor breather takes
the trouble to watch himself carefully
he will find that when he is engaged
upon any work that calls for close at
tention he does not even breathe as
deeply as usual: he almost invariably
holds his breath
Learn to make a breathing lesson
OF dressing in the morning. OF going
up and down stairs, of your duties In
household. Office or shop. Of your
walks. your games and your rest. Draw
in deep draughts Of air every time
you take breath and every little
while stop everything else and fill
your lungs few times with breaths
that test their capacity. You will be
surprised to see the Improvement that
1t will make in your general condition
