In "Some Outstanding Factors in

poor man on poor land, and outlines
in brief a plan whereby the man on
impoverished land can Substitute time

on the high road TO success by the
use of legume crops. He says:
"A vast number of American farmers
are making their homes on impover-
ished land and are practically without
working capital. The outstanding fac
tors in profitable farming, in such
cases, consist in a study of what to do
with what they already have.

ordered to take load of lumber some

while the horses were struggling to

meet him, and seeing the horses in
such difficulty, and Pat standing on
top of the load, he stopped him and
exclaimed:

COOPERATION BASIS

Creamery-Prices Vary.

By r. M. wASHBURN, University
Farm, st. Paul, Mimi
The foundation of profitable dairy
ing in Minnesota is in the cooperative
creamery. If the time ever comes
when true competition ceases and
dairymen find themselves in the posi-
ton OF those in some of the south
western states, the business of pro.
ducing milk and dairy stock will be
severely handicapped.
Some creameries in the state are
paying from five to eight cents pound
more for butterfat than others, though
all have the same market In which to
sell their hutter. The causes OF diff
ference in the prices are the quality
of the butter and efficiency In the
