Nichols says.
Farm profits in 1928 will be deter
mined to a large extent by the care
and thought tht is used in planning
and scheduling the farm work for the
year. Successful farmers plan their
work at this time of the year and then
see to it that their plans work out in
the next twelve months This helps
them keep ahead of their work and
that is big item in making the farm
pay.
More farmers each year are adopt
