The Council figures it this way: the 1949 edition of "Accident Facts", the Council's statistocal yearbook, shows that New Jersey h|d the lowest • accident fatality i*bte of any state last year. The safest age group in the country was the 6-14 bracket. And for some reason, little girls seem to he safer than boys. McHenry Bible CltvreH 102 8- Green Street (Pries Bldg.)

You can turn a hobby on the farm into a tidy profit Mi L. Mosher, professor of farm management at the Illinois college of agriculture, says that many of the best farmers he has visited have made hobbies out of certain phases of their farm work. And they have made these spare-time interests pay them well. Lamb feeding is the hobby of one successful farmer, Mosher says. This farmer, has become so interested in his hobby that he spends a lot of time with the lambs that otherwise would be spare time. This extra care and interest have paid him large profits for his lambs than most lamb feeders get. Production of poultry has also become a hobby with many farmers and their wives. As a matter of fact, to be successful with poultr you need to give as much time and attention to your birds as you would to any other hobby. One grain farmer seemed to make a game of seeing how many old farm buildings he could conyert into hen houses. He had about seventy-five hens in an old cob house, 100 in a garage, 125 in a shop, 125 in a hen house and 250 in an old hors? barn. His tenyear record showed ifverage returns above feed costs of $3.75 per hen, or twice the average return on 10G other flocks studied. And what a fine hobby soil conservation is- Every young farmer under 40 who takes up soil conservation as a hobby might double his earnings after he is 50 Mosher says. Every farmer and landlord over 50 might well take up the same hobby. It would enable him to increase the value of his investment and give him the pleasure of preserving it for future generations.
