HAD A CAPITAL or $500
In Six Years He Was Well Off

An Alberta farmer, who had bor-
rowed from q loan company. in re-
hitting to them the last payment on
his mortgage, decided to give them the
history Of his experience, on a Mani
toba farm. 1t was that of many anoth-
er farmer, and for the benefit of those
who contemplate a change the liberty
Is taken of reproducing 1t.
II will give you here a brief sum-
mary of my experience since coming
here six years ago. l was a new hand
at farming, my trade being meat-cut-
ting and butchering. My capital was
$500, which was a first payment on
my quarter section (160 acres). Most
of my stock, harness, implements, ETC..
were bought at sales, all ION time"
necessarily. The buildings on the place
were about as good as nothing and had
either to be rebuilt or replaced entirely.
There We're 20 acres broken, and very
badly farmed, bringing poor returns
the first year" After mentioning a
number of mischances, he says: 'In
spite of all these drawbacks, l have
done well. / consider my farm worth
$500 TO $4,000. / have four head of
horses, u of cattle. over 400 purebred
Buff Orpington chickens and 125 tur-
keys, besides implements, harness, etc,
to run my place. / have a well 40
feet deep with an lnexhaustIble supply
of water. The well with pump cost
me $500. I have built $125 chicken
house and put up nearly $50 worth of
poultry fencing; have built root cellars
to hold over 1900 bushels of potatoes
and other vegetables. AS to income, I
raise about ten acres of garden and
roots annually which net from 5000 to
$1,000 total. l generally sell from
20 to 40 tons timothy hay which brings
from So to $14 per ton. My grain is
most all used on the farm except a
few hundred bushels sold to the neigh
bors for seed. My four milk cows bring
in from $50 to $50 each Counting calf.
Last year so hens laid 600 dozen eggs
which averaged more than % cents a
dozen q always work for winter egg
productioni. The surplus hens were
sold in spring. dressed Mt 81 each. My
turkeys average $3.50 each in fall BY
having vegetables TO feed my young
cattle, the two-year-od steers bring
$50 each in spring. "-Advertisement.
