L L HIS
(By w. A. Rowell.)

Mr.. H. j. Power, of Brownies,
is doing some good farming-he is
living and boarding at same place,
and, at the same time is building up
his land, thereby leaving it better
than it was when he gained posses
sion of it. He is planting all the
food and feed crops necessary to
supply his family and livestock and
some in excess for his country. Mr..
Power says that n of the most i'm
portant men during the war is one
who is farming, not one who plants
two-thirds of his land in cotton, but
one who is providing for food and
feedcrops. Yet, in this war time,
when there are thousands of hungry
people in this world looking to Am
erica for food, we have farmers
right at home who are planting 10
acres Of cotton to the plow and only
four acres of corn, and who are
buying their meat, part of their
corn, and all of their flour from the
West and North. Is this patriotism?
During the past two very cold
winters, Mr.. Power has made two
good grain crops, despite the cold
winters, and a great many other
farmers have failed in their grain
crops. Mr.. Power has a very small
family, runs a four horse farm, yet
he is planting 20 acres of oats, 8
acres Of wheat, one acre of rye, "a
acres of corn, 3-4 acre of sweet po-
tatoes, never buys any meat, has
plenty Of pasture for 10 cows, and
is 4raising plenty of chickens.
Mr.. Power expects I'd thrash out
700 bushels of oats from 20 acres,
will make 80 bushels ofewheat from
8 acres and 1915 bushels rye from
one acre. He has all the oats neces-
sary to do him and will sell. 200 blu.
These oats are worth $1.25 per blu.
but they never cost him $3.50 per
bushel. Now see if you can buy
them for so cts per bushel!
Mr.. Power believes in good farm
ing, he is getting a pleasure out of
farming. He says the older he gets
the more he wants to learn about
farming. He started to farming a
good many years ago, and his motto.
was, "First, ditch and terrace your
land properly, rotate. your crops,
plant your stubble land. to peas,
turning some Of them under every
year, and you will make poor land
bloom like a rose in five years."
What would be the result if every
farmer followed the example? We
would have a more prosperous coun-
try to live in, we would get more
out of life, our land would be
built up, and we would not have to
buy a bushel of corn, apound of
meat or lard, a bushel of oats o
any hay, or a sack of flour from the
North and West. -
