WHO MAKES MONEY .-------..-.-.
sst FARMING AND Howl

In the current Issue OF Farm and
Preside. the National farm paper pub
lished at Springfield, Ohio, Judson c.
Welliver, Washington correspondent
OF that publication. writes an inter.
esting article In which he shows that
large farms are more profitable than
small ones In proportion TO the dollars
invested. lie says that after two or
three years OF investigation the gov.
eminent has published bulletin pre-.
senting the conclusions Of a survey OF
representative farms OF Indiana, iii.
nols and Iowa, wherein Is shown who
makes the money farming and how;
also who loses II and why. Following
is an extract giving some Of the facts
contained In the governments re-
ports:
"ln the first place, II seems 10 have
discovered that most Of II is made by
the landlord, and that chiefly out OF
the increase in land values. The
farmer gets poor wages for HIS work,
In a startlingly large proportion OF the
cases he gets no wages at all, after
allowance is made for interest on In
yestment and cost OF help. The man
on the small farm makes less wages
than the man on the bigger farm, be
cause II costs more for what the ef
fciency experts might call overhead
operating costs on a small than on q
large farm. II you don't own enough
land to make a good sized economic
farming unit. rent some and farm Il
along with what you own. II you CAM
get II, sell what you have and. &c
where you can buy enough. or rem
enough, to make the proper unit.
The. department figures show that
as the size OF the farm increases the
proportion OF II actually raising crops
increases. and the number OF horses
and the amount OF machinery required
per acre to farm II decreases. Like
wise. until the farm gets big enough
TO make II possible to handle labol
most efhciently-that is, TO have
something for all the hands to be do
ing all the time that Is worth while
the proportionate labor cost is to-
large on the small farm. That ma.
be tough on the intensive experts. bu
it's a fact they can't get around. TIL
small farm must have the various i'm
plements. but they don't do as mucl
work per dollar OF cost that they reT
resent. as on the bigger farm.
"The survey which brought on
these and many more important fact
included 277 farms in Indiana. 1876 4
Illinois and 227 in Iowa. In each Stat
rather more than half we're operate
by the owners. and the rest by tel
ants"

German Science Wonderful Aid Tc
 Arn1y

Army.
 PETROGRAD, Sept. 23.-FrOm all sides come accounts of the extraordi- nary forms of mechanical warfare now in use by the Germans. Apart from Krupp's alleged marvellous in vention of a 16-inch gun which throws distance of nearly six miles a huge shell weighing two-thirds of a ton, the Russian wounded have cur ious tales of other machines espec- iaIly favored by the Germans.
 It appears that electrotechnica2 science plays an important part in this war The ordinary barbed de- lenses, which it is death to touch, have been heard of before, but Ger mans have now invented electrical contacts for exploding mines under bridges, highways, etc. Before re- treating the German sappers destroy the roads, as far as possible, but if they are not hurried they contrive various internal machines fired eith- CT by solitary watcher few hun- dred yards away or by contact. For example, bridges over which pursuit will pass have been fitted with mines which explode when the weight of d COllSlucl dUlc Uouy ol 1iSL LII lhSo the electric wires into contact by a depression of the roadway.
 The Russian soldiers do not con- slider that this is playing the game, , but they find some satisfaction in the reflection that all such devices are prompted either by sense of weak ness or lack of courage. After all, in war it is the man who wins in the end, and not his wea7ons, par ticularly when the latter are mean, cunning contrivances like these nov cities of Germany. This diabollcal ingenuity is not quality much val ued by the soldiers, although it seems to be in high favor with the modern German.

Although there are over two hun dred varieties of edible fish in the waters of Alaska only seven varieties are being extensively exploited. The constant advance in the price of food stuffs has served to turn the atten- tion of scientists to the fisheriees of the north which are conceded to be the best in the world.
