Every farmer is buyer and a seller

The fact about which he should have
no doubt is the value and necessity of

The old adages quoted above are con
Sidered very much in point by farm

say, do not lie regarding farming any
more than regarding other subjects.

another way Of saying "a stitch in

INCREASE IN VALUE
OF FARM PL0W LANDS
Something Occurred That May
Be Called Phenomenon.
Least Rates Of Advance Are Found In
New England and Middle Atlantic
States-Upward Movement
IN Corn Belt.

When farm plow lands increase in
value per acre by one-fifth IN one year
and by one.half IN four years, some
thing has occurred that may be called
phenomenon" These increases in
value are indicated by the results of
investigations by the bureau Of crop
estimates In March. 1916, pillow lands
in the United States had the average
value Of $3.50 In the same month In
1917 the average was SG2l7; In 1918
II was S6S.3S; In 1919. $74.3l and at
the same time OF the year In 1920
S90.0l. building values In all years not
being included In the average.
The average value OF 1920 is "a per
cent above that Of 1916, As per cent
above 1917, 81 per cent above 1918,
and p per cent above 1919. Hence ii
appears that by far the greatest rate
OF yearly Increase was from 1919 to
1920. To the extent that plow-land
values are related to crop prices, this
lag in the advance Of land values be.
hind the advance in crop prices Is ac-
cordlng to rule.
Values approximately doubled In the
South In four years. and that is a part
Of the country where pillow lands have
low values. They are overtaking the
higher values of other states. The
least rates Of advance In values are
found In the New England and Middle
Atlantic states. In the corn belt,
where values are highest, the upward
movement Is strong.

pencil folds, bordered with narrow
band of silk In lighter shade than the
frock. This light silk faces the sleeves
that are turned back to reveal 1t and
gathered under small disk of embroid-
cry above the facing. An unexpected
detail In the management of this frock
Is the harem skirt gathering at the
bottom.
Another pretty taffeta shown at the
right. is made on more familiar lines
but contrives to be just as pleasing as
Its rival. Its bodice with turned-back
elbow sleeves has a group of small
tucks at each side and soft girdle
that fastens under one large ornament
at the right side. Narrow frills Of the
taffeta. set on in bands at the front
and back and across the hips at the
side, make n charming trimming. A
frill of lace about the round neck pro-
vides youthful neck dress. Necks In
this style invite the use of beautiful
old lace collars shaped to fit them and
already they have made their appear

wrapped that the fingers need not be
soiled Herewith.
Small rolls or buns may be followed
out and q salad not too moist. used to
fill them, then the small bit cut Off the
top, pressed back, protects the salad,
and the whole may be eaten from the
fingers without soillng them.
Pork and beans may be carried In
the cans, heated in hot water and they
are ready to serve.
Roasting potatoes in a good fire and
toasting frankfurts to go with the POI
tatoes produce dish very popular
with picnic parties.
There are so many kinds Of sand
witches which may be served that II
Is needless to mention the value Of a
good sandwich. The bread should be
cut in uniform slices and the filling
spread evenly. Meat, II sliced, should
be sliced very thin. Butter to be used
on sandwiches should be creamed and
may be seasoned with chopped mint,
capers or ketchup, or mustard may be
added to give flavor and variety.
Each sandwich should be carefully
wrapped in waxed paper, to preserve
it and keep havors from mixing In the
lunch basket
Little cakes or pieces Of cake II
wrapped, may be eaten from the paper
without coming in contact with the
fingers.
For drinks, there Is always the uni
versally favorlte coffee. Made In an
open kettle and strained into hot pot
to pour, there is no beverage which
takes its place.
Grape Juice, orange juice, lemon
Juice, may all be used in the making
of good cooling drinks-the Ice car

When lemonade is used 1t may be
made, sweetened and ready to add the

drink.
Appropriate salads may he carried
In Mason jar and small paper cups
used to serve them.
Small sponge cakes may be carried
carefully and a small jar of cream to

whip; sweeten and flavor the cream,
then All the little cakes, which have
been cut open and the crumbs re-
moved.
