A. Bratton of Cornell university. Many farmers are ready to turn their farms over to young men, or are looking for a young man to work for wages on a profit-sharing basis. Farming in the years ahead, ac cording to Bratton, will provide a good living for the young man who is well trained, properly financed and located on good lands. Educa tion and experience will be even more important for farming in the future than it has been in the past. Starting fanning in a period of in flated prices requires caution. Un usually high prices for livestock and machinery and high land values make it important to start without heavy indebtedness. Working as a Time and again 4-H club mem bers have proved that their train ing well fits them Is successfully operate farms of their own. lired man in a farm partnership or share renting are ways a young •nan with limited capital can be- :ome established without a heavy iebt load.

Pasture Makes Cheap Dairy and Stock Feed Pasture is the cheapest and best feed your dairy and meat animals can get, declares the Middle West Soil Improvement committee. Not only will it save scarce feed grains, but also it will cut production costs and step up the milk and meat out put. However, the soil must be fed to get a good stand of legumes and grasses. Legumes are heavy “eat ers” of phosphorus and potash, re quiring plenty of plant food. Lim ing, based on soil tests, use of manure and the return of crop after maths to the soil are other essen tials.

STATE AND COUNTLYY RR "THE MOST VALUABLE SPOT OF GROUND IN ALL THE WORLD Go to th e secretary of the Rosemont Cemetery association and ask him to sell you a lot in Rosemont cemetery for the small sum of $50. For 50 dol lars he will sell you a lot ten feet by twenty feet, seemingly a lot of little value and yet the very second the preacher says “amen”, he closes the burial service of one very near and dear to you, that lot be comes invaluable, priceless and no money could' buy it. All over Rosemont cemetery are lots made priceless by the sacred purpose for which they were used. To you and me Rosemont cemetery is the most sacred plice, the most valuable lot of land in all the warld. I wonder if we couldn’t keep it a little cleaner? It has been my custom to place flowers oa my mother’s grave on her birthdays, but one year I for got. The following day 1 drove thru the cemetery and on my mother’s grave were beautiful flowers, evidently placed there the day before. Someone had not forgotten. I was glad, but terribly ashamed. MRS.
