In all localities where dairying is a

Maintaining Fertility.

The man that keeps his share OF
dairy COWS and manages them in the
right manner will never find his land
losing it's fertility. AS a means OF
keeping up the fertility of the soil, the

a small amount of the elements are
taken away from the soil without be-
ing returned, and that small amount Is
very profitable.

wheat-9 0O.O0O0OO bushels OF it. a
world record And every last bushel
OF it has got TO be cared for moved,
