The Small Farm

"The tendency of this generation is toward the corporate ownership of farm lands-the intense industrial spirit Is back of that tendency. But with the advent of the large farm the farm home disappears, farm life is snuffed out, and we have in it's place a big system which for the time be- ing may be able to show satisfactory financial results, but which will uiti- mately mean both financial dissatis faction and social unrest. The small farm well titled leads to a contented community; the large farm, even if well cared for cannot receive the care 1t should, it results in a complete loss of community life and pride.-Farm and Preside.
