The difference between farm
ing and business is this: If one
farmer gets a cream check for
$500 it will not hinder his neigh
Dor from getting the same
amount, in fact it should help
the neighbor. The man with the
larger cream check will surely
not get out and lose time work
ing against his neighbor
acquiring more revenue also.
There is and should be co-opera-
ton, whereas in business there is
both cooperation and competi-
ton. With the growth of popu-
iation there is a natural increase
in business but if one business
man is to forge way ahead Of
others he must go out after the
business and naturally get some
thing from others-not neces-
sarily from his nearest competi-
tors but from somewhere.
AS to the Americans profits
which is merely guess work on
the part of others, as is our esti-
mate of farmers profits in spite
of the published cream checks.
will simply state that should any
one else wish to enter the field
and reap the golden harvest"
the coast is clear. Competition
is the life of business. But out
side work in abundance would
have to be secured in order to
maintain an up-to-date shop and
not just a hand setting affair
where it was a case of trying to
earn ones salt and being at the
mercy of a little hand-out now
and then as was the style of the
country newspaper of many
years ago many of which news
papers were without indepen-
dence and whose opinions could
be bought for song.
But summing the whole thing
up in a nut shell, the farmers
have expressed themselves and
the cream checks shall not be
published.
