 "I shouldn't think" said a cores pondent, it would hardly be possible for any one man to keep track of what's doing along such a tremendous string of trenches"
 You'd be surprised," said the young officer he spoke to, to see how sensitive a fighting line is.
 "For instance, the other day, a chap said to me, Don't you know Bill Smith?
 "'Ycs,' l said. He and used to be great pals but he went to Canada and 1 haven't seen him for years.
 "Wcu,' said the chap, he's 45 miles down this line now. Why don't you get leave and go see him"
 q did, l made that 45-mile trip wading through trenches and taking short cuts, travelling through coun- try I'd never seen before, meeting thousands and thousands of men I'd never met, getting lost and asking di- rections, mixing up with conveys and ammunition trains and having all sorts of experiences, until finally I came to a jolly long tunnel leading down to a laundering deep dugout in a first line trench.
 q went down this hole and as l landed in the dugout, Bill Smith got up and said, I'm mighty glad to see you, old chap
 Just then a telephone bell rang in the dugout. One of the other fellows answered it and after a minute, said, Yes, he's just got here
 "It was the chap who told me about Bill Smith asking if I'd arrived safely"

Profit and Number of Acres.

The size of business has much to
do toward making the farm profit
able. Farm management records
show that farms are often either too
small or too large for the most sue
-cessful farming. There may be too
few as well as too many acres. A
man may not have enough land or
he may be Gland poor," thereby rem:
dering all his acres improbable.
y About 80 years ago Wisconsin
farmer with a large family was
deeply in debt. His farm sconsisted
! of 120 acres, half of which was un-
der the plow. The remainder was
woodland and expensive to clear.
For IL years the farmer had not
been quite able to meet his interest.
To him the whole farm consisted of
improbable acres. He finally de-
cided that the farm was too small
for the most efficient use of the la
Dor available. Having an opportuni-
ty, he bought an adjoining 80 acres
of cleared land, going in debt the
full amount Of the purchase price.
From that time on the farm was
prosperous, and in 10 years the en-
tire farm was paid for and enough
additional money saved to build a
good house and barn. During this
period there had been 10 great
change in prices of farm products.
The smaller farm had been unproft-
able because the overhead expenses
were too high for so small a busi-
ness. In this case acres were made
profitable by increasing their num-
ber.
In the early nineties a North
Dakota farmer owned 3 quarter Sec
tions of land. His farm was quite
heavily mortgaged and for a number
of years he had not been able to
nav the interest in full. His family
was small and for most of the work
he had to- depend on hired help. He
concluded that under the circum-
stances he was working, or trying to
work, too many acres. Finally he
) sold quarter section and paid his
debts. Seven years later he. had
$4,000 in the bank. Increased prices
of farm products during this period
only account in part for this farm
er's increased prosperity. In this
case all the acres had been unprotlt'
able largely because there were toe
many of them. c. Mcdowell, IN
