There are many left behind, who

sigh "for the touch of those vanquished

Little Farms.
Many farmers spread their labors
over too large an area of
land, doing nothing well and being
always hurried and behind
witii their work, with 110 tune for
rest or recreation,says a writer in
the Kpitomist. By attempting to
cover too much ground, the work
is only half accomplished, with
the result that the yield is much
lessened ami tho quality of an inferior
grade, so that the returns
from the large farm in many instances
will not cover cost of production
; while if there should be
a surplup, large taxes and cost of
repairs will swallow it up, so that
the hard-worked farmer lias nothing
to show at the end of the year
for his long season of labor.
1 if ?...? ??
v/i tuumo iiitiin ni e suiue men
poHHesued with capital and exceptional
bufline68 talout who are
making large farms pay all expenses
and yield a handsome
profit besides; but the majority
t)f farmers will secure better results
and obtain more real enjoyment
for themselves and families
by adopting a system of intensive
farming.
