J X, Bob Burdette gi ves this simple re­ ceipt: My homeless friend with the chromatic nose, while you are stirring up the sugar in a ten cent glass of gin, let me give you something to wash down with it. You may say you have longed for years for the free independ­ ent life of the fanner, but you have not been able to get enough money to buy a farm but there is where you are mis­ taken. For some years you have been drinking a good improved farm at the rate of one hundred square feet at a gulp. If you doubt this statement fig­ ure it out for yourself. An acre of land contains 58,560 square feet. Estimating the land at $48.60 an acre you will see that it brings the land to just one mill per square foot. Now pour down the fiery dose and imagine you are swallow­ ing a strawberry patch. Call in five of your friends and have them gulp down that garden of 500 square feet. Go on a prolonged spree some day and see how long it will take to swallow a pas­ ture- land to feed a cow. Put down that glass of gin; there is dirt in it 100 square feet of good, rich dirt, worth 143.55 an acre.
