latest Investigation from varied sec
tons Of the state showed that the
farmer, after making per cent inter
est on his investment, had on the a7-

for his labor
It is. significant. that. 30 per cent Of
the farmers investigated were getting
less than $500 a year for their time
in addition to a house to live In and.
farm products for use IN the family

has no capital. from which he is draw

according 10 this iabuIatiCn- has sew
eraI thousand dollars worth Of farm

The farmer has therefore engaged in
an occupation which permits Of the
accumulation OF some capital In
addition he has raised most OF his Iiy-
ing so that his cash returns can to 8
large extent he saved or applied 70
