For Efficient Farming.

Efficiency is as necessary on the
farm as in the factory. the shop or
the store. To be efficient In farming
involves a certain amount of pre-
paredness just as to be etacient in
war involves careful and scientific
preparation. 1t behooves every young
man who expects to secure his living
from the soil to prepare himself for
his life work Just as thoroughly as his
circumstances will permit. He may
do this by studying at home and by
observing the methods of successful
farmers.
