A 1J-ACRE FARMER.
After 20 Years in Railroad Shops,
He Finds Happiness in
Few Acres.

For 20 years A. T. Smith Worked
in railroad shops, advancing to the
position of foreman and holding that
place for years. Then he bought an
old auto that the owner had taken
apart and had given up fixing, and
took it home in boxes and baskets.
All summar--seven years ago
Mr.. Smith tinkered with that auto,
and finally made it run. Then he
sold it for $175 and paid $50 for a
purebred Jersey COW. After that there
was nothing to do but go back to the
soil, for the Jersey turned out to be
a good one and brought $500, and
her calf was valued at $500 by a man
who was willing to pay that for her,
the rest of the story being told in
Profitable Farming Magazine St. Jo-
seph, Mo.
The Smiths bought twenty-five
acres of Missouri bottom land in
Kansas, just across from st. Joseph,
paying down $500 they had saved
And then things happened fast, so
fast that they now have two pit
silos, a herd of eight Jerseys, not
counting some grades they are going
TO dispose of, they have made a home
for themselves, Mr.. Smith has a shop
en- the place where his ingenuity does
wonders with gasoline engine and
a little time and some scrap iron, and
there is an alfalfa barn and about
everything else a man could desire,
even on big farm.
The house and other buildings oc-
cupy about an acre, twelve acres are
in alfalfa, and two in corn. Every
year that two acres of corn ground
gets about 100 loads of manure, and
the next year it goes into alfalfa and
two acres OF alfalfa give way to corn.
Results show this to be pretty good
way as Mr.. Smith sells a surplus
of eighteen or more tons OF hay ev-
cry year.
Butter is one of the features of
the Smith farming method, and
sometimes as much as 40 pounds a
week is made, selling readily, on ac-
count of its quality, at 40 cents a
pound.

1O4 Bushels Oats to Acre.

Grand Junction, Ia, Aug. 21.-
What do you think OF 104 bushels OF
oats to an acre? That is what Daniel
Wessling took Off of four acres near
here, the prize achievement of the
state, his friends believe. The four
acre tract yielded 1863 bushels by
measure and 4l6 by weight, and it
is weight that counts. 1t took thir-
teen bushels of seed to start it and
a lot OF labor to harvest, that's ALL
Good rich bottom soil did the bust
ness. The variety was No. 1913 of
Ames college.

They Run a Heavy Risk.

Both automobile owners and those
leasing residences Or other buildings
for lodging purposes would do well
to remember the risk which they run
as result of liquor enforcement
laws that are at present in force. A
law put on the Iowa statute books by
the last legislature provides that any
automobile used for the transporta-
tion of liquor illegally is subject to
Fconfiscation by the state, and the law
holds whether the owner OF the car
is cognizant of the fact of such lille
gal use of the car or not. In view
of this law the renting of an automo-
bile for the use OF beer parties Or for
the transportation of booze would
seem to be decidedly risky under
taking. In the second case referred
70. the owners OF premises where Ii
iquor is kept, sold Or otherwise lille
gally disposed OF is liable to the pay
ment OF heavy tax, $500 or more,
and this notwithstanding the fact
the owner may not countenance or
even know OF such illegal use of his
premises. In these days when GER
tain irresponsible elements of Iowa's
population are turning things upside
down to circumvent the restrictions
imposed by the putting in force Of
liquor laws, the responsible property
owners referred TO would do well to
keep pretty close tab on the uses to
which their property is put.-Ex.
