Tn Texas it was discovered that an uneducatedl
farmer earn $4,000 in forty years; while farmer
who spent twelve Of the forty years IN school mgnt
earn $4,000 in forty years That IS TO say, the
farmer who spent twelve years in school will earn
s2oOOO more in forty years than the farmer who
never went to school In the twelve years the Iexas
Tad will have spent 100 days in school These 2loO
davs in school will net him $4,000 by the end OF
forty years, an average OF about S9.z5 day 1or
every dav spent in school. Not bad wages!
In Georgia it was discovered that the annual net
nroft Of the uneducated farmer is about $24O while
the annual net profit of the farmer who has had a
common school education is S56550 the annual net
profit of the former who has had high schooi
education is S66450 and the annual net profit OF the
farmer who has completed an agricultural college

In Missouri it was found that the scales tip con-

In Wisconsin it was found that the farmers with

their farms in abolt seven years. while it took the
farmers with only a common school education about
ten years to acquire clean title to their land.
