CLEARS LAND AND PAYS
FOR IT IN THREE YEARS

s. Nelson owns 43-acre farm, one
and three-fo urths miles north of Exc
land. When he went there eight years
ago he was looking for Il place where
he could live and build up his health.
He built Il house, 24X24, story ana q
half with full basement, and hay
shed and small barn. He is getting
to build.
When he started he purchased only
| five acres, and has added the balance
since that time He has recovered his
health and can do good days work
now. He clears Il little every year and
| has eight acres cleared free from
stumps.
| Mr. Nielsen has given us some Jig
Ircs on his clearing He hired sixty
cords Of poverty wood cut and lrluled
from one and one-half acres last
spring. The wood paid the expense
Of getting it off of the land. There
was but little brush which he cut off.
and the land had been seeded down be
fore.
The first crop Of potatoes pays for
the stunning and growing of the crop
so that the real cost Of clearing this
heavy pine land which consists OF light
brush. a heavy lot of old logs and dead
stumps is entirely offset by the price
received for the wood and the 1lfSt
crop of potatoes. The next crop Oil
toats and peas seeded 10 grass is eX-
pected to offset the cost Of the land
One could throw III the third crop
(which should be two tons OF clover pei
acre and the whole acreage so devel
oped is cleared and paid for III three
years with an allowance OF the last
crop for full measure.
Mr.. Nielsen has four head OF COWS
. but wants to sell one of them and put
the money into clearing land. He said
he had no team and preferred TO hire
his team work done rather than to keeI
and feed team, as he has to work oui
and the team would be a detriment tC
him.
AS TO clearing and blowing green
land, Mr. Nielsen said that II mai
had money enough TO do that he hao
enough so that he did not need to come
here at all. Land should always be
brushed and seeded for Il few years
before it is stumped and plowed, he
. said.
Settlers have Il big help now i'll the
