FARMING NOW
A BUSINESS
The Modern Day Farmer Applies
Business Methods and Seeks
More Than a Living on
the Farm.

A nationwide cry is being made for
more economy and greater production,
and probably never was the need of
foodstuffs equal to that of the present.
Grain prices are the highest In the ma
tons history and today the agricul-
tural fields Of America offer induce
ments that are uneQualed In any other
line of commerce or business. The
ideal life is that close to nature, en-
joying the freedom of Gods great out
doors and fulfilling duty to human
ity by producing from a fertile soil
that which is essential to the very ex-
istence of less fortunate people who
are actually starving to death for food
stufrs that can be produced so eco
nomIcally in the United States and
Canada.
High prices for all grains. undoubt-
edly. will be maintained for a pumber
OF years. and II appears certainty
that the agriculturist will reap u
bounteous return for his labor and at
the same time carry out the demands
of patriotic citizenship. A wrong con-
ception has been generally noticed as
to life on the Farm" 1t has been,
to large extent considered as only
a place to live peacefully and afford
living for those who are satisfied with
merely a comfortable existence. Such
a wrong impression has been created,
In a measure, by the lack of systema-
tic business principles to farming in
general. But today farming and agri-
culture have been given supremacy
In the business world and require the
same advanced methods as any other
line OF commerce. In no other bust
ness does a system adoption pay bet
ter than on the farm. and Ii Is certain
that there is no other line of work,
that, generally speaking. needs 1t as
much. The old idea Of getting living
Off the farm and not knowing how ii
was made and following up the details
OF each branch of farming to get the
maximum of profit, at the least ex-
pense. is fast being done away with.
Farming Is now being considered as
business and living Is not sufficient
for the modern agriculturist small
per cent on the investment Is not
enough. the present-day farmer must
have percentage return equal to that
OF other lines of business. The prices
for produce are high enough, but the
cost OF producing has been the factor,
In many places. that has reduced the
profit. II Is the application of sys-
TEN to the cost OF various work on the
farm that 1t Is possible to give figures
on profits made In grain-growing In
Western Canada.
Mr.. c. A. Wright of Milo. Iowa.
bought hundred and sixty acres Of
land in Western Canada for $1,000 in
December. 1915, and took his first crop
from it In 1916. After paying for the
land IN full and the cost of cultivating
