One young man. Jim Flynn, real

he listed in the Huntington Park,

There are lots of these types
around, although usually they are
The steady daters who feel pretty
sure of their man.

evening talking about the faults of
other girls, especially those her
late used TO go steady with. (This
ype usually lacks a sense of Sc

That's the 1856 male edition. But
maybe Flynn doesn't want to be re-

here are more than any other.

ever before, it has become import
ant for farmer to consider each
part Of his operation in line with
every other part-to tune up, so
0 speak, his total program for
maximum returns for time and
money invested. Each suggested
program works toward an ideal for
each individual farm. Mary of the
recommendations involve little or
no additional cash costs, but are
concerned with using better adapt
ed varieties of seeds, fertilizers and
spray materials, better timing of
work-such as the best stage at
which to harvest hays or silage,
etc.
One of the basic concepts of the
program is that livestock farmer
should be able to raise all Of his
forage hay, silage and pasture,
and a goodly portion of his grain.
In the case of cattle, hogs and
sheep, the majority of the feed
should come from the less expen-
sive forages.
