PROBLEMS OF NEW FARMERS
Wisconsin Agricultural College Issues
Valuable Information

The Wisconsin Agricultural College
has Just issued bulletin that is oi
great interest 10 Iron county just
now as 1t starts out on It's new pro
gram OF getting settlers.
Settlers buying land In Upper Wis
consin with less than $4,000 TO start
with, are facing serious risk. Prof
Richard II. Ely. head OF tho econom-
les department OF the University OF
Wisconsin and d. III. Hibbard of the
agriculture economics department
point out I'm a bulletin to be issued
shortly by Tho agricultural experiment
station. They declare that the aver
/, age settler in that section buys with
not far from $500 capital.
After getting on the land. the de-
lveiopment stage requires an avail
able capital OF at least $500. the bull
letin says; In this period comes the
erection OF permanent buildings. the
breeding OF a good dairy herd and the
accumulation OF farm machinery.
II quotes the opinions of experience
ed farmers and land agents that small
dairy farming with money crop in
rotation is the surest method OF agri-
culture In the section.
In order 10 have true picture. FIRST
hand observations were made I'm
various sections supplemented by
testimony OF county agents. bankers.
real estate dealers. successful farm
ers. settlers. merchants selling to
settlers and editors, the writer's ex-
plain.
The county agents. they say. de-
clared that a majority OF the settlers
were unable TO judge farm values;
that land Is being sold for agricultu-
raj purposes that ought not be sold
for such purposes, the small dairy
farming with some such crop as po-
mtoes in rotation in the snrest type
Of farming in Upper Wisconsin. The
agents. Il Is said. gave as the chief
causes of failures OF settlers as lack
OF capital and credit. lack Of know
ledge Of land clearing. wife dissatis-
fled. failure TO appreciate the length
of time Il takes to develop farm on
cat-oyer land. and lack of ability on
tie part of the settler.
The number ~ failures, county A.
gents report. vary from per cent in
one county 70 70 per cent IN another.

One Brief Flash
OF Fiery Debate

Once, shortly after the afternoon
session began, there was a sputter of
.empers aud a brief flash of the fiery
debate with which the trial opened
nearly two weeks ago.
This occurred when Arthur Z. Suth-
orland, Of counsel for the committee.
announced his intention of reading into
tho record excerpts from the testimony

before the Lusk committee
For fifteen minutes counsel Tor the
socialists. headed by Seymour Stedman,
fought bitterly against the admission
81 this material AS evidence Prece-
dent after precedent was cited by both
sides. while voices and tenpers rose
Finally the objections of Socialist coun-
sci were overrulod by the chairman
When Mr.. Sutherland again started
90 read the excerpts Mr. Stedman OBJ
Jectcd once more, demanding that the
entire testimony be read into the
record instead OF bits here and there.
Dir. Martin sustained his objection.
Il was then that Mr. Sutherland,
with heavy volume Of transcription
of Marrenss testimony in his arms,
asked piteously for reading desk.
This was brought, and for an hour he
ploughed through the testimony of
she soviet governments representative.
NJ. Stedman then relcnted and sug-
.ested that copes of MarJens's test;-
mory be made and turned over to him
and MS associates. with the promise
that after they had gone over it thcv
would not object to the reading Of ex-
cerpts therefrom into the record
