lighter soils. which have a greater ten
dency to be sour will be Sweetcned BY
the use of ground limestone and the
heavy clays will be easily worked by
applying the same.
The cost of ground limestone is SID

mum car is 80 tons and ii maximum
car is 55 tons.
Let the coming year be time for eX-

county will be sufficient territory. One
man need not apply lime on more than

The farmers of Iowa are surprised
at the figures given out by the depart
ment Of agriculture stating that the
Iowa farmers earned $500 each, last
year. basis made on market values.
This is fine tonic TO fiOunt in the
faces of grain belt farmers who were
all but ruined by the slump of last
years prices on what they had to sell.
Millions of dollars are made every
now and then on the Board OF Trade
on these government reports ana the
farmers lose vast amounts of money
when the reports of big crops come
out. following previous reports that
were not so favorable.
4 few men guessing or estimating
what the farmer raises are about 81
apt to be accurate as the report OF the
earnings Of the Iowa farmers last year
These figures might not have been out
of line if they were given for the year
of 1919 when the grain belt farmers
did make lot of money.

IDLE ACRES
A LIABILITY
The More Cleared Acres Less
Cost of Operating Per
Acre

Elmer W. parSOn. Sheldon. Wis. has
found that it pays to clear land. Many
farmer with stumps and timber on
his land is overlooking one of his most
profitable opportunities in allowing
this land to lie idle
The farmer can afford TO sell his
crop ON narrow margin OF profit II
he works Oh Il big production basi&
That is Just as true as it is among
manufacturers 4 large company with
Il big volume will operate probably
upon a profit 50 low that would cause
Il small company to go bankrupt.
An idle acre is worth nothing. 1t :
a liability for taxes go on even though
the land does not produce. y cleared
acre is worth from 5000 to 500 more
than the same land would be worth an
cleared. Getting rid of StumpS an'
timber simply makes each acre worth
5000 to $4,000 more. This increased
valuation is more than enough to off
set the cost Of clearing.
The Important Point
But even more important than th'
increased valuation of the land is th'
increased production of crops. y few
additional acres under cultivation cl
most any farm these days will some
times mean difference between ;
GOOD living and loss. For it You pm
a few additional acres to work 1t vii
cost you very little for the added pr"
duction. You don't have to hire an.
help to take care Of it, all your eX
penSe is il few dollars for seed. etc
But the money you make from the cN
ira acre is clear profit.
Mr.. parSOn has found the stuInl
pullcr Il splendid means for clearin;
his land quickly and at low cost
I'm fact he is 50 pleased with it tina
he wants his friends and neighborS t.
know about il and he is planning t
