Should you make a change to
wheat growing, you then must pre-
pare to grow grain and will have to
buy a lot OF new up-Eo-date machin-
cry and more teams or engine power;
and even then the small farmer can
not compete in grain growing today
with the larger wheat ranches Of
Eastern Oregon, Washington and the
Dakotas.
when the world war is oveer and
peace is declared, the price Of grain
will most likely drop. You will then
wish to have back your fine dairy
herd, broed sows, calves, chickens,
etc., and it will take several years at
cost to put you back
where you were when you sold out.
The above produce is bringing you in
cash every day, while with wheat, you
get cash only once in twelve months.
There seems to have been de-
,rease in the production in all these

,een an increase in the consumption.
WHY NOT LET WELL

When you are growing clover,
ou increase the fertility and value of
