A Farm Paper Worth While.

Iowa has the honor of being the
home of what is generally consider
ed the most constructive farm paper
published, Wallaces Farmer. This
paper was established by Henry
Wallace and his two sons, Henry G..
and John P. Wallace, more than
twenty-three years ago. and it has
been very constructive force for
the upbuilding of Iowa agricultural
ly. 1t is paper that every member
of the farm family can read with
profit. It's motto is Good Farming,
Clear Thinking, Right Living and
it is worthy Of that motto
Wallaces' Farmer is studying and
analyzing the problems of the farm
er and giving him real help in these
war times. The helpfulness of its
editorials, it's answers to, questions
~about farming and the feeding of
live stock, it's study of the econom-
les of farming, it's department for
the women folks on the farm, its
live stock and dairy charts, showing
the trend of prices, and many other
features make it most valuable to
the man who is interested in getting
the best there is out of farming
We do not hesitate to recommend
Wallaces' Farmer. 1t is a paper
that no man interested in better
farming and better conditions on
the farm should be without. 1t is
published in the interests of it's sub
scribers, and gives them real serv-
ice. 1t does not meddle in politics,
and there is not single thing in
Wallaces' Farmer that will not bet
ter every farm home.
