HAS THE FARMER
NY ONE familiar with farming need only
look back a few years to get a picture
of the marked progress that has taken place
in agriculture and to visualize some of the
possibilities the future holds in store for the
farmer.
The quality of farm products, both crops
and live stock, has been raised. There has
been a slight gain in the acre yield of the
principal crops despite the depletion of soil
fertility. Diversification has been extended
with attendant increase and stability in in
come. Better utilization of farm crops and
by-products is opening new opportunities.
The standard of living on the farm is sub
stantially higher.
But the most amazing change has taken
place and is now taking place in farm oper
ations. The operating efficiency of the yTT)
farmer has more than doubled in the last
generation due to continued develop
ment of new and better farm machines.
Recent advancements toward the perfec
tion of farm power equipment and acces
sories offer still greater possibilities in
efficient production.
It is true that these results cannot all ,1^)
be measured in net profit. Nor have all
farmers shared alike in the benefits. The
farmer who has taken advantage of these
opportunities has made headway.

If Patrick Henry, that famous gen
tleman who uttered those immortal
words “Give me liberty or give me
death,” were here today with us, I
believe that enterprising young man
would either “do something” or, in
deep despair, go out behind a tree
and commit suicide. He would have
no other choice than to do so. It’s
a pity he isn’t here today—he cer
tainly would get an eye-full.
You unfortunate boys that are
without ward-drobe trunks are in a
pitiable state. The best thing you
can do is to find a good, strong box
somewhere, buy about ten cents
worth of moth balls, and lay to rest
that new Fall suit that you were
planning on “stepping out in” at an
early date. If you can’t manage to
do this then be sure and get it out
of your respective clothes closets.
It’s absolutely necessary. As for that
new pair of high-toned shoes—lay
them to rest also and give them your
paternal blessings. Your socks, if
hidden well, may be kept in the
clothes closet, that is—if they are
clean enough not to attract atten
tion during inspection. Have all your
serge shirts, pants, ties, and other
necessary army apparel cleaned,
pressed and hung in a conspicuous
place for these are the things that
meet with favorable approval.
T*hat dilapidated old bathrobe,
which you have probably worn for
the past two or three years—this,
too, should be carefully removed
from the khaki receptacle and plac
ed in an unobstrusive spot on the
inside of your four walls. It would
doubtless be out-of-place elsewhere.
The flashy, bright colored ties,
which graced many a waxed floor
during the past summer—these also
must be taken out of no-mans land
and hidden in the recesses of your
trunk. They are superflous to the
public welfare. Throw away those
outrageous green, lavender, and blue
shirts that you were so justly proud
of—they are not needed here unless,
perhaps, you are planning on going
to the Cowboys Ball given later on.
If you can’t get enough courage into
your system to throw them away—
merely lay them to rest by the side
of the ties that matched them so
well.
Throw in a few more clods. Par
son, may they rest in peace—until
next June rolls around.
