My grandfather and my father were
both general farmers" They raised
certain crops because they had got into
the habit of raising them, because 9TH
ler farmers raised them, and they as :
sumed that they had to. Neither OF
them had ever kept tab on the outgo
and the income from any particular
crop.
MY two years single kept reckon.
ing showed me that just about one
half of these routine crops were
source Of actual loss; that only about
Qne-han paid wages and profit. In
other words, we should have been bet
ter on If we had dropped the loss
causing crops entirely and had not
compelled the profit bringing crops to
make good for the paupers as Wen as
themselves.

textbooks phrased their problems,

city-built textbooks in country schools
and substitution Of methods of in

was the phrase.

Agriculture has taken up the idea, and
issued a bulletin, warmly advising
that rural schools deal with problems
