He sees all the pretty pictures and reads all about the one In a million" success stories and comes out to the country to duplicate what he saw. If It were that easy, the story wouldn't have made the magatine In the first place. My heart goes out to the many poor young farm families who work so hard to make a go of things when Its just About economically 'impossible. Here are the facts: Farm Bureau farm management figures for twenty-one years hi this area show an average cash balance of $15.01 per acre. That means that a young man and wife starting out on a 100-acre farm would have a 11,509 per year cash income after running expenses. Who can live on that? What if he had to pay the landlord $10 per acre cash rent? You can't convince me people can make a living over the long pull with much less than 200 acres. Sure you say things have been different in recent years, but don't kid yourself. Expenses have more than caught up. If you intend to farm, better put that $15 per acre down in your little black book hs a guide post and get a farm that Is big enough to pay you tha salary you wish to earn. One of the most efficient farmers In F.B.P.M. history In Illinois has lived ail MR life on a ISO-acre central Illinois farm. He raised ten children, but was never able to send one of them to college. Records show that had he lived on i S20-*cre farm he would ha'ge been able to send them all to college. What are you farming tor anyway? To be sure the land gets worked? It seems some poor sucker will always get it done, but does he make a living at it? Probably not and the poor feed, seed, gasoline and fertiliser dealer holds the bag. These same F.B.F.M. records In the hands of the College of Agriculture research department bring out another very astounding fact. Farms of equal opportunity (size, fertility, etc.) over a 20-year period have, provided -one operator enough more income than the other operator got to pay for the farm. That extra income the one farmer got is called management earnings. Actual 21-year records spoken of a while ago show a difference of $6,300 per year in management earnings, of the five high farms compared to the five low farms in the study. In twenty years that's $126,000. God didn't create all men alike or els*, they sure got different'in a hu--j. Good farmers go to school and learn regularly. Of course, if you know it all we sure can't help you. We now have the dope to prove that the Extension service • definitely makes farmers money if they are willing to listen.

No stalks were sticking 6ut. He went over them with the stalk cutter and then with the tandem disc. Then he plowed them under with a new set of Yetter dished coulters. Discing and dragging after the plow once made an excellent seed bed. His drill had super-phosphate in it, oats and brome in the oats box and 15 pounds of alsike to 60 pounds alfalfa in the grass seed attachment with the grass seed tubes, tied around so the seed would fall on the chains as they drag behind.
