FARM OF FORTY ACRES
Equipment, Management and In
come of Small Place.
Convenient Scheme for Dividing Land
Into Flve-Acre Tracts-One OF
These Utilized for Home
stead and Garden.

CBy w. ]. SPILLMAN, Chief Of United
States Bureau of Farm Management)
Mr.. H. H. Mowry of the Office Of
farm management, has been making
a special study of the equipment, man
agement and income of large num-
Der of small fruit and truck farms,
many of them run by people who have
recently come from the city.
This study has given us somewhat
a new point of view. In general these
small farmers are not successful. This
fact has led US to study the question
more closely, and as result a
scheme for the management Of forty
acre farm Is outlined below. which
seems to be practicable.
Figure shows a convenient scheme
for subdividing forty acres to fit 1t for
the cropping system to be outlined
below. It will be observed that the
forty acres are divided into eight FIVE
acre tracts. One Of these is set aside
for what may be called the home
stead" These Eve acres are at the
Alma record. (Alma, Mich.) 1878-1928, 1913-03-20

turned under very early IN the sprms
in preparation for sowing the clover.
In the corn field which Is to be fol-
lowed by cowpeas the wheat could re-
main until the second year clover field
Is ready to turn stock on, at which
time it might be plowed up and sown
to cowpeas. We thus have pasture
during the whole year in sections
where the seasons permit winter pas
turing.
In states that are too far north for
the cowpeas, soy beans may be sub
stituted for them, and In regions too
far north for soy beans, oats can be
used on this field, the other crops In
the rotation remaining the same. Com
mercial fertilizers would be required
for the potatoes, cabbage and onions.
There is plenty of good literature
published by the department of agri-
culture and by good many OF the
state experiment stations relative to
the cultivation and fertilization of DO
tatoes, cabbage and onions, and the
reader Is referred to this literature for
further information concerning the
growing of these crops.
One fact to which / would call at
tention is that In the marketing Of po-
tatoes. cabbage and onions 1t is not
necessary for the farmer to run to
market every day for several weeks,
as would be the case with most other
kinds Of truck crops. especially straw.
berries and tomatoes.
