ENFORCE THE BLUE SKY LAW.
Ipnhunue telegraph H erald.l

According to the Des Moines Capt.
tai. there are 1000 men in Iowa sell
ing land. The blue sky law requires
that corporations or persons selling
acreage tracts lying in distant states
shall take out licenses and make an
nual reports to the state. Yet not
single person has applied to the state
for license, or otherwise complied with
the provisions of the law.
Much CT the land beng offered for
sale in Iowa is worthless. The buy
ers Of such land are swindled by glib
Iongued statesmen. Hard earned money
is daily becoming the easy pickings
of vendors OF sand hills and swamp>.
and the upulous are fattening off
the thrifty and industrious.

forced TO the letter and penalties i'm

small the farm is. on the large farms
Of Lyon county. there is an average Il
"a cents per acre invested in buildings
as compared with 80 cents per acre in

People in town think that farmers
are working too much land. You viii
hear city folks make statements like
this: Farm eighty acres, and do it
right, and you viii make more money
than b. spreading tae same labor ov.r
100 acres" These good people mean
well, but they do not know what they
are talking about. They think that the
object of farming is to get the NEST
possible out of each acre Of land.
Farmers know that they are farming
in order TO get the most money and
happiness per man. Because the aver
age acre in Henry county returned

SO for Lyon county, city man might
conclude that Henry county farmers
were doing the best work. However.
$9.40 mast be spent on the average
Henry county acre for labor. machin-
cry. interest on the investment. etc,
whereas only s7.5o must be spent of
the average Lyon county acre. This
leaves a profit of s2.60 per acre for the
Henry county man. and $3.50 per acre
for the Lyon county man. The Lyon
county man makes the most money s,e-
cause his farm has nearly twice as
many acres in it. The Lyon county
man has shorter season and less
rainfall than the Henry county man,
and he uses much less horse and man
labor in producing crops. Nevertne-
less, in the average season, his crop
yields run about the same. In the
year the census was taken, the corn
crop OF Henry county was forty BUSH
els. as compared with forty one bushels
far Lyon county. The oats crop was
29.s bushels for Henry county, as
compared with sos bushels for Lyon
county. Small farms do not neces-
sarly produce larger yields per acre
than large farms. Professor Warren.
the New York man to whom referred
earlier in the article, found this TO be
true in the case of 5Ss farmers in
