 If Cleveland should break even III it's series with the Chicagoans ant the Tanks should fail to record an other victory, the standing at the close of the season would read thus:

A GOOD POINT

A VERY important difference be-
"A tween the business of farming
and that of other industries is set forth
in an impressive manner in an article
by Jules S. Bache, New York busi-
ness man, in a recent issue OF the
Farmers National Magazine" Says
he, "The farmers turnover is. at the
best, not more than one per year. The
average experience with crop failures
and the necessity Of occasionally follow
ing the land brings his turnover actually
to about one in two years. The mer-
chants average turnover is several
times per year, and the manufacturers
turnover still greater. To ask the
farmer to take loss on one turnover
in two years because the merchant and
manufacturer will take loss on one
turnover in few months, is not only
dishonest, but if at the same time you
expect his buying power to continue,
you are expecting the impossible. :"
This is point we do not recollect hav-
ing heard discussed in the many farmers
conferences and congresses held so fire.
quently. But it is an important one,
and should be reiterated by speakers
at agricultural meetings. Mr.. Bache
may never have done any farming, but
it is evident that he understands some
of the financial difficulties that confront
the agricultural producer.

we would both miss going to see them
occasionally. Please advise me.
VERY ANXIOUS.
This Is matter that only you and
your husband can settle, my dear.
Change is always hard for any one, but
why should living on a. farm keep you
from ever seeing your husbands or your
own families again? Farming Is not
a very great money-making proposition
on the other hand, so your husband

Next time you call on the girl take
