FARMERS FORUM s :::: s &C.,: S:

agricultural implements on a farm
do not last, on an average, take them
all in all over five or six years on
good farm. At the end of that time
they are gone. Some tools may last
a little longer, but take binders and
mowers and hay rakes and cultivat-
ors and corn planters, and almost
everything else a farmer has to use;
in five or six years the tools he
bought are useless and gone and he
has to buy new lot.
Take into account what the farm
er has to pay for these things and
what he has to pay for his hired
help, and you will see that he needs
81 "a bushel for his wheat to-day as
much as he needed 81 bushel five
or six years ago. l have seen the
time five or six years ago, when we
were in normal condition, when l
thought 81 bushel was fair price
price for good wheat. To-day l would
not feel that 81 bushel was of much
value to me as 81 a bushei was in
those days"
Such sentiments from MinnesOta's
senior senator discredit any insinua-
lions uttered at any time that he is
not in sympathy with the farmers of
the northwest.

Store Winter Supplies

A family of five, including two
adults and three children under IL
years of age, under ordinary living
conditions, should have stored for
each month of the winter season the
following food supplies: 1 bushel of
Irish potatoes; IL bushel of other
root vegetables such as carrots, tur-
nips, and parsnips; rs quart cans of
other vegetables; and 20 quarts of
canned fruit and preserves. These
figures are based on estimates by the
United States Department of Agri-
culture, which adds that most of this
should come from the perishable
products of the many home gardens
of this year.
With these figures as basis, it is
thought that almost any family may
calculate it's requirements, taking in
to consideration the length of the

The Young Farmers Opportunity

Minneapolis Journal.-A Mime
sofa farmer received six thousand
dollars for his potato crop from thir-
ty-five acres last month. This was
nearly twice the value of the land
on which the potatoes were grown.
Two Minnesota farmers have already
received for their 1917 wheat crop
the one seventy dollars, the other
seventy-six dollars an acre, or one
half the vlue Of the land from which
the wheat was cut. Another Min
nesOta farmer, who last month sold a
carload of hogs at the healthy price
of fifteen cents a pound received for
ty-fve hundred dollars for the load
These four farmers live within an
hours ride by motor car from Mime
apolis.
Such farm profits are not to be ex-
pected every year in Minnesota; yet
they are not misleading in Judging

SEEMING Traverse for Bullheads

Browns Valley Tribune. MesSrS.
Waldo Bros, who are SEEMING bull
head fish from Lake Traverse, say
that the supply seems almost mex
haustible. They ship the fish by ex-
press to eastern markets, and at
present are shipping from 5000 to
5000 pounds a week The fish are
nicely cleaned and packed in ice, so
that they keep fresh until they ar
rive at their destination. They re-
port that they have found some silver
bass and pike, a few carp and buff
falo fish, pickereI, etc. The lake
was crowded with fish before they
started in, but conditions all around
are now much better-and so are the
fish, from an edible point of view.

winter season in any given locality.
Thus, in the South, where food crops
may be grown in the fall, the winter
allowance may be less than for the
far North, where one must count on
supplies for several months longer.
There is still time, says the de-
partment, for a final drive in can
ming, preserving, and drying. In
using dried vegetables, it may be as
sumed that a given quantity of dried
vegetables is equal to four times it's
bulk of canned vegetables; that is,
one-fourth of a quart of dry string
beans when soaked over night is ap-
proximately equal to one quart

! the business of farming. Such profits
are bound to come to every capable
farmer at times. Farming in a rea-
sonably sure-crop country like Min
nesota is a reasonably safe business.
, The element of chance, large in such
enterprise as unprOven mines and oil
wells, is wholly absent from farm
ing. The ultra-sensational profits
that sometimes come to mines and
oil wells are not to be expected in
farming. They never come.
But farming even in lean years
has the advantage over extra-hazard-
GUS enterprises, that the farmer is
fed and housed and financed from
his land, while waiting for the years
of larger profits. He does not have
to carry his investment till luck
strikes him. 1t carries him. The
proof of this is spread all over Min
nesota. Nearly every county has
| farmers accounted rich-men worth
one or two hundred thousand. Farm
ers having unencumbered property
worth from twenty-five to fifty thou
sand dollars are numerous; while
the farmer not worth from five to
ten thousand dollars is reckoned eth
ate, or incompetent. OF no other
leading line of business and of no
other calling can such a statement
be truthfully made.
Nor has the opportunity passed
to enter the farming business sue
cessfully. Doubtless for the next five
years the world will need farm prod
uce more than it has at any time in
the past fifty years. The growing
shortage of live stock, noted by the
Department of Agriculture five or
six years ago, is much more pro-
nohnced now; in fact, the worlds
live stock shortage is greater now
than ever known. This insures, at
least for the next few years, an un-
precedented profit for the skilled
farmer.
A hundred and fifty dollars an acre
has deferred many capable young
farmer from attempting the business
for which he is best fitted The days
of cheap land such as his father en-
jOyed, are gone, and with them, he
may think, has gone the opportunity
of earning a farm within a reason
able period of time But there are
other factors in the problem.
For example, men not yet old used
to haul corn to- market at from eleven
to twenty-five cents per bushel; and
hogs at from two and a half to four
cents a pound. These products were
raised on land then worth from fif-
teen to twenty-five dollars per acre
But those farmers were paying sew
enty-five per cent as much for vehi-
cles and farm implements as farmers
pay today.
It took three hundred bushels of
corn to buy farm wagon then. 1t
takes but one hundred bushels now.
Then a harvester cost from five hun
dred to eight hundred bushels of
corn. Today the largest and latest
model harvester may be had for two
hundred bushels.
And it cost more time and labor to
grow a bushel of corn then than it
does now. A hog at eighteen cents a
pound will buy as much in the way of
farm implements today as five hogs
at three cents did then. The next
decade promises to offer the open
door to the young farmer looking for
the way to acquire farm of his own
on the easy terms his father enjoyed.

K. U. DOPED TO WIN
Jayhawker Team VIII Reach Column
bia Notwithstanding Is Light.

Lawrence, Kan, Nov 2S.-A low
score game, with Kansas holding the
advantage at Columbia tomorrow, is
the way the Missouri-Kansas game
looks to the Kansas rooters. The
dope figured on the basis of COM
parative scores gives Kansas a big ad-
vantage, but Kansas followers, mind
full of the showing of Missouri in the
final games of other years, refuse to
claim any advantage over the Tigers.
The rooters admit that Kansas ought
to, but the question is-will they?
This feeling has best been exempli-
fled in the betting. OF course, there
is little being done around Lawrence
this week with the lack of Missouri
money in the city. Some men are ask
ing fbr even money, but the more lib
eral are offering as much as to
on Kansas. With the Missourians
asking for greater odds a compromise
may be reached in Columbia before
the game.
The lack of a special train to carry
the Kansas rooters will cause small
err number of Kansas enthusiasts to
take the trip than usual.
The team left Lawrence Tuesday
with Coach Jay Bond and Manager
Hamilton, but the K. U. mentor would
not give a probable lineup for the
game. The light workout in Moberly
this afternoon will give the coach a
chance to look over his five cripples
and choose from his squad of twenty
seven men to start the game.

PENN A SURPRISE
FolweIl's Eleven Upset Grid
Dope This Season.
Victory Over Wolverines Was
Expected by Few.
BY JACK VEIOCK.

New York, Nov. 2S.-Penn. gave the
football sharps the surprise of the
season.
When the Red and Blue moleskin
warriors of Bob Folwell trampled the
Wolverines into the dust at Franklin
field, headed by the versatile How
ard Berry, they tipped over the beans
completely, for no one expected that
the Wolverines. hailed as the cream
of the West, would return to Ann
Arbor a defeated team. though many
critics predicted that Penn would put
up great battle, and the writer was
one of them.
PENIS victory over Michigan shows
pretty clearly just how much dope is
worth when it is gathered from com
parative scores In sizing up the
strength of various teams which do
not meet during a season, or com
pairing two teams scheduled to play
on the scores of previouse games
against the same teanls, the dopester
takes the longest kind of a chance,
and. as a rule, he doesn't get away
from the barrier insofar as hitting
the nail on the coco is concerned.
Doping Always Uncertain.
Doping out football teams by COM
paratlve scores is just as sure as dop-
ing out baseball teams-with due re-
In other words, it is the bunk, pure
and simple, for there are just as many
uncertainties in football as in any
other game.
For instance, who would have pre-
dlcted that Penn could have played
the hefty Wolverines off their feet in
every department of the game? Who
would have predicted that Howard
Berry, an in-and-out player as a rule,
would slip three field goals between
the bars against Michigan? Who Z
We hear no answer The heartfest
supporters of the Penn team-the
Philadelphia sport writers-did not
have the confidence to predict that
Penn. could win, for Michigan came
east too well press-agented and car
rylng too good a record for that But
;the fact remains that Penn did wal
lop Michigan, and there you are.
Might Have Beaten Pittsburg.
Penn, as she played against Michi-
san, might have beaten, Pittsb{Irnl.
rem was pointed and ready.forH that
game. She had found herself and
Cob Folwell had instilled a fighting
spirit in the Quakers which would not
be downed- PENIS backs and Penn's
forwards played as tho their very
lives depended on victory The pep
per in the team was evident when
they rushed onto the field for their
preliminary signal drill They showed
more jazz and ginger than the VOL
verines could possibly have shown.
ana they made it a sweeping victory.
The old dope is the bunk in many
cases. but what is poor dopester
gonna do, huh? Tell US what!
