In Walworth county, Wisconsin, a
man who taught school for % years,
is farming a 40-acre farm with won
derfuI success. F. F. Showers is this
money-making teacher-farmer. He has
a herd of COWS that made him net
profit of $72 head in year.
Read his suggestions and story:
IF you are thinking of joining the
union so you will have but an eight or
ten-hour working day, do not think Of
trying to operate small farm. To sue
coed in farming you must so enjoy
your work that it becomes a pleasure
instead of a task
ain fact, success in farming depends
upon the man who runs the farm. For
If he thinks enough of his problem he
will succeed no matter what lines of
farming he may pursue. Love and en-
Joy your work. Study each of your
fields to know it's weaknesses and its
possibilities. Harvest your crops so
that you will receive the largest re-
turn from them. Give your herd a
chance Produce, care for, and raise
only tho best.
Study Each Field.
81 study each field so that l know
what crop it will produce to best adj
vantage. A farmer can do this on the
small fields. The farmer on the small
farm must utilize all the corners of
the farm. The returns from some
fields on small farm will be equal

'If my soil is acid, use lime. If
my field is wet or poorly drained, I
tile it. A farmer can fertilize the field
pillow it, prepare the seed bed as it
should be prepared and get the soil
in the best condition for plant feed
and the maintenance of the moisture.
The farmer on q small farm must
raise crops which are best adapted
for his soil and from which the best
returns in milk, pork beef, or what
ever you have to market, can be Sc
cured. Often the surplus roughage or
hay can be scld and feeds bought
which will produce more milk cr meat
than this hay or roughage would have

Most business men would not feed
their cows hay just because it hap
pened to be on hand if he could sell
that hay and buy other feed which
would produce more milk. Last year

chased feed valued at $296.95. l did
this SO could have balanced ration,

Il try to make each COW as comfort

dend from my milk pals.
Il make difference in the amount
of feed give to a cow weighing 1000
pounds and one weighing 1900 pounds.
Reason shows me that although the
larger cow may not produce the larg-
est amount of butterfat, more feed is
required for her maintenance. This
food, of course, will vary from the
kind of food fed for butterfat. l think
that the secret OF success or failure
in the dairy business lies in the worth
OF the individual COW.

Many Warehouses Built BY Native

New York, Dec. s.-Reinforced
concrete building construction Is
gaining favor in China. and a num-
Der OF warehouses of this type of
considerable size and weight have
been built in Shanghai and other
trade centers. The building of the
Chinese government railway has fur
nished a good school in construction
work for Chinese contractors, and
there are Il number now in business
able to undertake any sort OF build
ing construction and perform 1t with
skill Although electric power is
available in several cities. mechanical
construction plants are practically I'M
known, being unable to compete in
cost with human labor.
Concrete mixers, buggies, chutes
hoists or any other mechanical
equipment for handling concrete are
according to the Engineering Record
things unknown. The freight on tools
of this sort makes their cost very
high. and they cannot compete with
hand labor, even where electric power
is available, as at Hankau.
