A PEAL FARMER

Here is a definition Of a real farm
or that won prize from an agricui
tural publication recently:
"A man who will cause each acre
OF land to produce all 1t will through
the summer, and, by the use OF I'M
proved livestock, convert all that II
produced on the acre In the way o,
grain and forage into a higher priced
product, and keep up the fertility Of
the soil"
To paraphrase this we should say
that a real farmer Is a man VINO
makes every acre produce to the Ut
most efficiency during the growing
season, and then finds the most eni-
cient market for his products.

tax included or the price of eleven
bushels Of corn) just to see pair

which taketh away the sin OF the
world" chosen by Rev. J. D. C. Hanna
from several texts suggested. After
composing the chorus, Mr.. Hardness
led the company in singing It and
gave copies OF a Testament to the

Another musical stunt was the rapid
improvisation OF six new melodies TO
the song IN Go Where You Want
Ne to Co" Mr.. Hardness played sew
eral OF his own compositions and Mrs
Harry Meyer and Miss Anabel Groves
sang solos OF his composing.
Mr.. Hardness showed slides OF
Switzerland. Italy, New Zealand, China
Japan and Korea, and told Of his ex.
periences with evangelistic campaign:
In those lands.
The entertainment was well at
tended.
