BUY FARM THAT IS EQUIPPED
Gives Newcomer Chance to Work Out

Often 1t is a distinct advantage
when buying a farm TO purchase the
equipment, live stock and materials
already on the place. In this way, the
United, States Department of Agricul-
ture points out, an income Is obtained
almost from the outset. which usually
makes possible the operation of the
farm without a loss, and thus gives
the wcome a chance to work out
changes and plans and at the same
time have a self-sustaining farm bust
ness.
If only the bare farm Is purchased
II usually takes some time to supply
ali the equipment and live stock and
put the place on a paying basis. In
the meantime overhead costs and 9th
or expenses amount to a large item

gained in buying a farm that is q

A study Of the latest statistics on
home ownership In the United States
reveal IN alarming condition. Not
n Of the very large cities shows 80
per cent OF their inhabitants owning
their homes. Not more than two or
three cities over 100000 in population
show more than half Of their families
living In homes that they own. In
other words, the nation has become
a land Of tenants. Is there any won
der that we are suffering from a tempo

PROMPTkESS ADVISED

ing Middleman or Agents-Re-
peated Handling Tends to
Reduce Quality.

After country hides and skins have
been properly and securely bundled
and tagged ship them TO market with
out delay, advises the United States
Department of Agriculture. Do not
let the bundle remain in the sum-,
drafts or water, or against rusty or
cOrroding metals. Promptness in ship
ping and delivery is always advisable,
but applies particularly to sheepskins.
They heat rapidly after being bundled,
and in hot weather especially must
reach their destination quickly.
Hides and skins should be shipped
rs directly as is practicable and eco
nOmical TO reliable dealers who sell
direct to tanners, thus eliminating I'M
necessary middlemen or agents. Re
peated handling tends to reduce the
quality of hides and skins. For most
farmers, ranchers and small butchers
it would be desirable If they could
dispose OF their hides and skins i'm
mediately after removal, without salt
ing and curing them, but this is gen
orally impracticable, since only a few
are neal enough TO tanneries or deal
ers equipped to handle their products.
Whenever thus favOrably situated.
producers find it both profitable and
practicable to sell the hides and skins
in the green, unsalted condition. In
no case, however, should this method
be considered unless the producer is
certain that the green hides and skins
will be delivered promptly. AS a rule,
"a hours after skinning is the maxi
mum time advisable.

Sea Babies.

More babies were born III sea during
last year than at any period since rec
ODDS have been kept. The official fig
ures show that in British ships alone
276 babies were born on the ocean. Six
ty-eight babies were born at sea in
ships "to and from England and
Wales" in 1918, and 151 in 1919.
Babies born at sea are usually very
lucky, as the inevitable collection
among the passengers usually reaches
$500, and very often more. Most Of
the babies are born in the third-class

BIG INCREASE FROM SHEEP

Yields of lambs and wool de-
pend largely upon the breed OF
sheep selected. With ewes of any
one of the medium-siZed mutton
breeds, the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture points out
that 115 per cent of lambs can
be raised, and 80 per cent is
not infrequently reached. The
wool clip varies from sever to
eleven pounds per eve. The
larger mutton breeds yield more,
as do also the fine woods, but the
value per pound of the latter has
In normal times been less on ac-
count of the greater proportion
of grease. In comparison with
cattle and swine, sheep can be
made TO yield practically the
same net returns on the value of
the land. If well cared for, and if
kept on lands reasonably well
adapted for sheep raising.

Methods Of Financing.
II is pointed out in this third bull
!etin that though community buildings
are financed in a number OF ways, as
individual donations, local industry,
well-established social or fraternal
organizations, by far the greatest
number are erected through the united
effort of interested people and various
organizations of the community. When
the latter plan Is employed the neces-
sary money is obtained either by vol
untary contributions or by the sale
Of stock. Subscriptions are paid In
the form of money, labor or mate
rails.
Financing n building by general vol
untary contributions is suggested as
perhaps the simplest, quickest and
most elastic way, while Incorporated
stock associations furnish more of the
elements of financial ~permanency.
The community method OF financing
has a number OF advantages: I'd
People are devoted TO that to which
they voluntarily subscribe; (2) this
method develops community co-opera-
ton. promotes union, and decreases
antagonisms through the necessity of
different organizations and factions
working together in a financial cam
paign; (3) as the money Is voluntarily
given from private funds, the people
are enabled to make experiments in
the building which they would hest
tate to make with public funds or
those OF en- individual or club; t4l
those who pay. control. Only a high
type of citizenship suhscribes TO an
institution of this kind and thus pub
Tic spirit at It's best is in control.
Community Buildings.
In recent years there has been a
growing movement in the erection of
community buildings by the munich
pality through taxation. This method
also has it's distinct advantages.
Maintenance expenses of community
buildings are met by dues, fees.
rentals and receipts from entertain
ments. profits and concessions. Some
OF the best organizations maintain
their buildings entirely by annual dues.
In the case of buildings financed by
an individual or by an Industrial con-
Germ, a community association is gen.
orally formed which guarantees the
maintenance OF the building as a con-
dltion of the donation.
Most community associations which
finance their buildings by issuing
stock, incorporate under the state
laws In order that they may have a,
ms-e effective instrument for buying,
selling and holding property. To
guide such associations. copies of ar
ticles Of incorporation, constitutions
and bylaws now In use by a num-
