Mr.. MOUNTAIN FARMER:
My Dear Friend,
have the pleasure to send you good
You have inherited fortune!
Three great chunks Of wealth have come to you,
and your children will not need to 60 ragged or
taught
The first is high prices for the things you have to
SELL There too many store-keepers, and too many
city aborers but enough farmers raise supplies for
the world. You can get more money than before
for your lumber, and your cattle and your fruit All
you have to do is to plan and work as have
farm products to sell year after year.
The next is closer markets The railroads
ing The roads are being made better. 1t used
to cost FIVE dollars to get steer from Mckee to Cincin-
natl but it costs only three dollars. Two dollars
saved, and one OF them goes to the farmer. All you
have to do is to plan and work to have farm
products to sell year after year.
The third is better crops.
Don't God send the rain and make the crops!'
Yes, but God makes the crops through skill
well as through rain. He is sending us this skill Though
the work of men like Montgomery and through schools
like Berea College and through newspapers like The
Citizen. All you have to do is to plan and work
have more farm products to sell year after year.
To get the benefit of this fortune that God offers you
should do two things odayselect your seed corn, and
