Profit on Small Farms.

There il profit n'the small farm. in,
tepsely cultivated, according to some OK
amples cited BY Edward H. Parkinson of
Albany in letter TO The New York
Times. Mr. Parkinson has been connect
ed with agricultural publications and
has made q life study Of the business Of
farming Hc declares that as a matter
Of fact the smaller farms skilfully man
aged, Sield larger profit on the invest
mcnt than DO tbe larger ones, As an
illustration he mentions a twenty.aere
farm in Dutches county, NJ r., where the
owner makes a net profit annually Of be
tween 5000 and $4,000 from poultry,
although he buys all his feed. There are
many truck farms. he SAYS, within five
miles of Norfolk, Va, Of ten acres, where
a net profit Of $1,000 il made. Near
Philadelphia is twenty-acre farm,
where one-half the land is given over to
asparagus, and from this hail. the owner
obtains a yearly profit Of 5000 lie sells
the product 10 a nearby cannery. "
But there is diminutive farm three
miles north of Reading, Pa, that beats
all Of these. II is one OF the most sue
cessful farms in tho United States and
consists Of only three and a half acres,
Of which two and a half acres yield an
annual profit Of $4,000 to $4,000. Mr..
Parkinson is specific enough in the Sc
lection Of his Illustrations to give him
good value as evidence. He doesn't
talk in generalities, but points out in
stances that support his claim concerning
the value Of the small farm. But, as Mr..
Parkinson says, it is in Europe that the
small farm il most highly developed. OF
some Of these little but profitable Eu-
ropean farms, M Parkinson SAYS:
"In 1912 the writer visited truck gar.
den near Paris, where 81 Asa was cleared
of two and one half arres every year,
and when in Belgium he visited in com
pany with the head of the Ecole d'Agi-
culture thirty farm where some
10000 chickens were fattened Yearly at
net profit OF $1,000 As a final ex-
animation of small farm possibilities, the
writnr recalls a model dairy farm on the
Rue Jerusalem in Brussels, only half
hour from the kings palace, owned by
Mr.. Van Nicer, whose herd consisted of
twerty-eight COWS, kept on plot some
$50 by 60 feet, and ten-acre field near
by where the cattle we're pastHed; I'M
der The barn was a cellar in which were
some mushroom beds, covering 1875 feet
of space, and from this complete little
plant the owner took $4,000 per an
mum, of which bit over 40 per cent
was net profit"
While appearing in this letter as the
special advocate OF the small, well cult
waited farm, Mr. Parkinson has word of
encouragement for the farming general.
ly, While large fortunes are not often
made from SOL culture, he says, there are
fewer failures among farmers than
among those engaged in commercial en-
terprises, and a very comfortable and in
dependent living may be had from it in
most cases. Where there is exceptional
ability even more may '5e expected, -

Thin PEOPLE
SHOULD TAKE
PHOSPHATE
Nothing Like Plain Bitro- Phosphate to
Put on Firm, Healthy Flesh and
to Increase Strength, Vigor
and Nerve Force.

Jddging from the countless preparations
and treatments which are continually be-
ing advertised for the purpose of making
thin people fleshy, developing arms, neck
and bust and replacing ugly hollows and
angles by the soft curved lines OF health
and beauty, there are evidently thousands
of men and women who keenly feel their
excessive thinness.
Thinness and weakness are usually due
70 starved nerves. Our bodies need more
phosphate than Is contained In modern
foods. Physicians claim there is nothing
that will supply this deficiency SO well
as the organic phosphate known among
druggists as bitro-phosphate. which is in
expensive and is sold by most all drug
gists under guarantee of satisfaction or
money back. By feeding the nerves di-
rectly and by supplying the body cells
with the necessary phospheric food ele-
ments, btro phosphate quirklc produces
welcome transformation in the appear
ance; the increase in weight frequently
being astonishing.
This increase in weight also carries with
1t general improvement in the health
Nervousness, seeplessness and lack of
energy, which nearly always accompany
excessive thinness, soon disappear dull
eyes become bright, and pale cheeks glow
with the bloom of perfect health.
! UT1ON:-Although bitro- phosphate
Is unsurpassed for relieving nervousness
sleeplessness and general weakness, 1t
should not, owing to its remarkable flesh
growing properties. be used by anyone
who does not desire to put on flesh.
