In the above table the number of cases in any group is small but the trend established by the total number Is obvious.
 Gross sales or volume on dairy farms can be increased in two ways by adding more cows, each COW ad ding S200 to $500 to the gross or by adding other lines of farming to the dairy business. The number of cows which can be added is usually limited by the amount of roughage that can be produced. Increasing yields of the hay crop and ensilage corn, or by buying or renting more land makes the addition of cows possible. It is not profitable as a rule to add cows beyond the roughage capacity of the farm except where milk brings a price much in excess of the average.
 We have not been able to correlate cropping systems with volume. Good cropping systems make more feed available, and enable one to keep more cows. Frequent reseeding of moving lands, top dressing of such lands, im- proved silage producing practices, all falfa, clover and pasture improvement are means that enable enc to increase volume.
 As a rule volume may be increased by adding or developing other enter prises than dairy with greater or equal success than by adding dairy cows.
 Tn addition to insufficient size there are of course other causes of low in comes among the matters that are under control of the individual. They may be grouped as inefficieneies or high production costs.

Factors That Affect Incomes on
 Dairy Farms
 There is a great difference in farm earnings on Connecticut Dairy Farms. Income studies made during the past five years on Connecticut farms and covering many hundred financial rec ords indicate this fact. During the past year we have assisted fifty-hve wholesale dairy farmers in analyzing their farm account books. The larg- est farm income on these farms was $6,039 and ehe lowest-$lsO. A study has been made on these farms in an effort to discover Why some of these farms paid better than others"
 Prices are a factor that affect in- comes, but it has become one of the problems of the entire group rather than of the individual. The constant growth in eooperatives and large scale selling and buying has made more and more uniformity in the prices Connee- ticut farmers receive. Prices account for little of the differences in farm in- comes and is tending to account for less and less.
 Many people claim that the difter- ences in incomes of farmers are due to differences in the farmers them selves, in their capacity for manage ment, their experience and training. The truth in this must be recognized. We cannot measure men well yet. We can measure what they do. This dis cussion will be more profitable if it is directed toward the things that farm CTS do that make greater or less profits.
 These things that men do them selves on dairy farms that make some incomes large and some small under similar natural and price conditions can be identified, at least some of the important of these, with confidence.
 The most important single determin- ing factor is the amount of volume of business that the farmer is doing. Studies of account book data and every farm survey made in Connecti- cut in the past have stressed the truth of this point. On these fifty.five dairy farms in comparing relations of incomes with a number of other factors this one, volume of business or total sales, had the greatest influence on farm earnings on these farms. As a general rule, those farms with the larger sales had the larger income. Small businesses necessarily mean small incomes. Large businesses do not always mean large incomes, but they do provide the opportunity with efficient management to make good profits. The following figures of these fifty-fve dairy farms illustrate the relation of volume of sales to income: Total Annual Sales Ave Labor Income

CONN. RURAL EDUCATION
State Recognizes Necessity for Trans
 portation Aid

Connecticut is one of the sixteen states of the country which have ad- vanced several steps ahead of the other states in rural education by providing specific financial aid to be used for pupil transportation, a sur vey completed by the bureau of edu- cation of the interior department re- veals.
 Transportation continues to be a growing and necessary factor in school eentralization. and Connecti- cut, along with fifteen other states. has recognized the importance of centralizing small schools into less CT number of larger schools by appro- priating funds to be expended in transporting pupils to these central ization centers, the bureau of educa- tion states in making report on the survey.
 All of New England. in fact with the exception of Rhode Island. has made provisions for carrying rural school pupils from distant points to centralized schools, according to the survey.
 The education bureau praises this transportation aid extended pupils because it makes possible the eonsol- idation of small schools into larger, better equipped educational institu- tions.

CURTIS BUYS POST" FOR EVEN THOUSAND
Publisher Gives Credit For Sue cessful Growth To Editor Founded By Benjamin Frank lin of Boston.

Cyrus II. K. Curtis. president of the Curtis Publishing Company bought the Saturday Evening Post for one thous- and dollars. The publisher told a gathering of Boston business men at a recent members luncheon of the Bos- ton Chamber 9f Commerce this inter esting fact. The publisher was a guest at the luncheon.
 The publication was bought, "lock, stock and barrel" MT. Curtis said, for $1 ,000. The owner had died and his heirs refused 10 supply even enough money for publishing it the next week. So Mir. Curtis bought it, afterward finding that the publication owed $S,000 rent. The circulation at that time was only 2,000.
 Mir. Curtis declared that he could sum up the success of The Saturday Evening Post in three words George Horace Lorimer (editor for thirty-one years). In fact Mir. Lorimer was the only editor the publication had had since Mir. Curtis had purchased 1t in 1891, except for an editor who pre- ceded him but lasted only long enough to get the publication into much trou- ble by publishing articles under the names of the Rev. Dr. Rainsford and Andrew Carnegie, neither of whom had seen or authorized the statements attributed to them.
 Boston, he said, had played lead ing part in the history of the maga- zine, for 1t was founded by Benjamin Franklin, a Bostonian. MT. Curtis himself had gone from Boston to Phil adelphia before acquiring 1t and Edit or Lorimer had been a Bostonian.
