successful farmer as he is.
r. No Clock To Punch

The successful farmer today ha,
freedom. and the means to get more
wholesome happiness out of life thar
does his city cousin.
He has electricity, his automobile
radio, telephone and daily paper. He
has his garden where fresh vegetables
and fruits are grown. He can set q
table of wholesome, delicious, nutri.
tious food.
He can hunt, fish, bath, ride anc
drive in garden spots that his city
relative only dreams about six DAYS
out of seven. His work shop is the
great open spaces. His work is hard
but healthful. He has no time clock
to punch; no landlord to pay; no com
muters train to catch and no stiff
ing subway to squeeze into. He is
his own Chairman of the Board.
He never, has to worry over where
he will find job if the factory may
shut down. His factory always re-
mains In operation. He has many
friends, a good home, sufficient in
come to enable him to live comfort
ably and provide for his future. His
work is interesting and profitable, if
properly done.
If this is not success, what is?
Success means crudely, securing the
best results that can be obtained with
the job in hand. The farm boy has a
greater opportunity for success at
home than he has abroad.
If these facts are impressed upon
the farmers son, he will get better
perspective on the Importance and
possibilities of agriculture. He will
be inspired to prepare himself for a
successful career in it. And then the
farm boy problem will begin to be
solved.

BEST FIELD OF OPPORTUNITY
FOR FARM BOY IS THE FARM

One of the most serious obstacles
that must be overcome for the gooC
of our economic system and the coun.
try at large, is the well-planted thee,
ry in the mind of the farmers sor
that he must leave the farm to reach
the elusive goal of success.
The farm is not only basic in
dustry but the most important in
dustry of the entire economic sys-
tenn. The successful farmer is just as
important to the welfare of the coun-
| try as the financier. People of this
country or any other could exist in
crude comfort without great indus
trialists and financiers, but industry
and commerce could not exist without
the farmer.
There is no vocation or profession
more independent, or more wholesome
than that of the successful farmer.
There never was a time when farming
held forth a greater or more success
full future for the right type Of scien-
tifically trained young men than it
does today.
Specialized Business
In order to keep the farmers son
on the farm, we must first impress
upon his mind that farming today is
a highly respectable and specialized
business, and that the successful
farmer is a man of actual and not
merely theoretical Importance in the
community.
We must impress upon him also,
that to be successful. farmer re-
quires something more than the mere
knowledge of how to pillow straight
furrow, or the proper time to plant
and SOW buckwheat.
He must learn to analize his soil
in order that he may know what crops
will give the greatest possible yield.
He must learn to analize market con-
ditions in order that he may deter
mine in advance what commodities
he can produce which will bring him
the most profitable returns. He must
learn to develop through organiza-'
ton a stable market for his products.
He must appreciate the Importance
of raising thoroughbred stock and
eliminating waste. He must know
what improved machinery to purchase
in order to cut down his overhead ex-
penses for man power.
In other words, we must impress
upon the farm boy the fact that edu-
cation along agricultural lines is as
necessary to the successful farmer as
an engineering course is to the man
who aspires to be an engineer. We
must teach this boy to visualize the
