GOOD MANAGEMENT
MAKES FARMING PAY

Farm surveys, made in many
sections of the country, have
shown farm management to be
the reason for success. In a
Gallatin valley survey one farm
showed $4,000 profit and another
81, 600 loss. Twenty-Five farms
averaged S1,362 profit, while
twenty-five others showed ar
average loss of $500. These
farms were side by side under
similar conditions of soil, climate,
larkets, etc. The difference
came through planning and man
agement.
The records taken show reasons
for the difference in labor in
come, These reasons are simple
and within the control of farm
ers. The study of farm man
agement Is more important than
the study of crops and live stock.
Montana has a farm manage
ment specialist-H. B. Cannon
who is working with the farmers
of the state on plans for better
farm management, under the d.
rection Of the agricultural COL
lege.
A School Of Farm Management
is planned at Bozemon, January
$3.50, during Farmers Week.
The instructors will be H. B.
Cannon, Prof. E. L. Currier of
Bozeman, and DR.. C. B. Smith,

This promises l., be the most
valuable of the courses given at
Bozeman this winter. Under
standing farm management may
easily add thousands to the farm
ers' income.

The Goats Of Asia Minor.

The goat more than any other
factor has assisted the rural in.
habitants of Asia Minor to destroy
the magnificent forests which once
extended from Smyrna through tc
konia, the ancient capital OF Kara
mania. Not only have the peasants
and nomads destroyed the timber
for the sake of hrewood. but thcy
destroyed it also in order that their
goats might obtain suitable pasture.
And the goats in their turn prevent
ed the new shoots ever after from
replacing the trees which had been
cut down.
