In these days of overproduction of farm products,’Vvdth consequent low prices, the farmer is casting about for greater diversification of his crops as a means of insuring income not subject to violent fluc tuations of the past two years. Such procedure is entirely logical and in line with recommendations of leading farm authorities. ; Statement of Facts Renick W. Dunlap, Assistant Sec retary of the United States Depart ment of Agriculture, states: “Di versification of farm production has almost invariably proved a boon to agriculture and is a remedy strongly indicated for present agri cultural difficulties. A kind of di versification available to farmers but which has not thus far received attention it deserves, is game farm ing.” The Game Plan When game birds are sufficient ly numerous to furnish good shoot ing, farmers can profit in the fol lowing ways: Renting shooting rights on a per day, per season or per bird basis; use of land for training dogs; sale of pelts from fur-bearing animals; boarding vis iting sportsmen; supplying dogs and transportation to sportsmen and guiding; selling farm products, such as butter, eggs, etc., direct to sportsmen; preventing crop losses. More Game Birds in America, a foundation, of 500 Fifth avenue, New York, a non-profit organiza tion sponsored by sportsmen and business men and having for its purpose just what the title indi cates, has prepared three practical, detailed, fully illustrated pamphlets on game birds. Their quail breed ing manual, pheasant breeding manual and Game Birds, How to Make Them Pay on Your Farm, will be mailed free upon applica tion. txt Bee Specialists Here May 3rd Bee keepers, and others inter ested, are invited to attend a meet ing at the Court House on May 3rd, at 2:30 p. m.
