Old Farm VS.. New

Many buyers coming here shy at the
new land and prefer to buy an I'M
proved or partially improved farm.
The new land looks like too much Of
proposition to tackle. / 2rn going
to cite an instance that happened in
northern Wisconsin during the last
few years. A young farmer who had
made money in the corn belt came
here to look for land He had over
5000 in cash and some good live
stock, He looked at eighty acres OF
partially cleared open land near La
| dysmith which laid high and dry,
good SOIL and open easily cleared
land. This land was offered him for
$50 per acre, or the seller agreed tt
finish clearing it for $25 per acre, The
prospective buyer remarked that ii
would take too long to get it under
the pillow" and passed up the bargain
he should have taken. The next dal
he found big farm with a good sc
of buildings on it and so or so acre
under the plow." The place con
tanned between 200 and 800 acres ant
the price was less than 500 per acre
After three of the last bad years thi
i young man whe was so busy farm
ing and tending his live stock that h
did not have any time to clear lane
, and thereby Increase his values, CAV,
} up and put his farm ON the marke
!, and is selling his live stock.
If he had taken the eighty Offered
at $50 built small set Of building
and cleared his land, or bought i
for S75 an acre cleared, he would b.
in prosperous circumstances today.
Take a look around you and yol
will find that the large majority O.
well-to-do farmers in Rusk county to
day are the ones who came here will
almost nothing, started on small
piece of wild land, grew clover
MIXED good cows and thereby pros
pered.
You men on the small pieces OF
wild land have a chance to make good
if you keep busy brushing, logging
| leyeling and seeding Even if you
have to work out part Of the time
you have place to live, a garden, a
cow, few chickens and future.
This is the time to stay by the land.
Don't let anything discourage you.

new FARMERS
CHANCE TO GAIN
The Man On Piece of Wild Land
Has Home, Garden, Cow,
Few Chickens and
Future

The farmer with a big garden,
comfortable house, a couple Of good
COWS and some good hens, has the big
end of his living provided for if he
takes proper care of his cows and
hens. Some farmers become discour-
aged and quit when they should
stick to it.
A good farmer is always building
for a better future. By saving some
of the heifers from his best cows, and
by enlarging his clearing he is con-
stantly gaining ground even it he can
not cash in on it at once. On new
farm one has a better chance to in
crease the value of his farm by
clearing than on an old one. After
farm has the buildings and enough
land cleared, and enough live stock
to keep one busy, the clearing is apt
to be neglected. By sowing small
grain and seeding the land down the
man with the older farm can do a
lot of clearing each year and thereby
increase the value of his farm much
faster than he can by growing crops
that need constant care during the
growing season.
One should plan his work so that
| he can gain a number of acres for
grass each year, and this should be
followed in due time by stumping and
blowing when a small grain CROP
should be grown and the land re
seeded.

CASTERS MESSAGE OF HOPE
Renewed Faith in the Life Hereafter
Comes With the Opening Days
of Spring.

The very magnitude OF the Claims
for immortality count for the place
that Easter has had in the magma
ton and the hopes of mankind. The
breadth of the claims for immortal
ity Is what cunt for the inspirations
Of men and their efforts to do the
things that their best natures and
highest talents propose for them. The
wonder of the claims for immortality
accounts for the power that the re-
ligiOn that teaches the immortal hope
has over the lives of the believers.
GentIing and p~acifying and stimulat-
ing and genius-emp0wering, the claims
for Immortality transcend any other
motive force In the activities of man
kind. Nothing else has equal civ
ilizing and humanizing power. and
nothing else can cause men 10 be
satisfied with the viciSsitudes of their
existence. Come see the place where
the Lord lay" Such is the word OF
faith in the life hereafter 10 those
who have affected to believe that
man is only mechanism. But Easter
has not Ia do with cold reason; it has
to do with Colorful imagery. Music
sounds from the churches and poetry
from the writings of the testatOrS TO
the immortal hope. and the souls of
men are bathed in Il beatitic glory.
Angels and men Join in the Eastertide
Inscription, and those of the wise men
who were belated AT the manager come
now to spread their trophies at the
tomb which has been invested by
science with its late but joyous testt-
mony TO the glory Of an endless life.

plants are lifted, pOtted, and removed

bloom the following February to April
is months after the seed has been
planted. Those plants which bloom
in July or August and from which the
bloom stalk has been cut may send
out two or three stalks and can be

Many commercial growers are much

it will not be long until an industry
will be developed in this country which
will make lily growers here independ
