Show mr fanner farmer help yourself naturally there la Is pessimism in the area hard hit by alfalfa seed failure two successive years arith low yields the second IM 1929 being a bad one ts is not good for many who hive done so ft ell year after beer u on alfalfa seed thia this brings up the sam old question viz what shall we se produce so that we vie shall be more certain cert alst of cash at harvest time this question has many angles act it il fortunately many sections have given up the seed game aad and are now playing other crops and product products and hence don dorit t notice a seed failure but the entire basin basis should consider a number of cleme tan tarr subjects affecting the welfare of the average farmer A little self examination Is good right now in fact very essential

gradually coning coming back to some importance it is therefore apparent that genuine farming is our first and most important business to get more snore cash we must improve this agriculture wherein may we do so this question has several answers each 0 e important the average farm does not produce product enous it of the following essen bals for ahme consumption beets cabbage carrots potatoes corn onions celer cauliflower all unas kinds of fruit strawberries and garden products of all standard varieties during the growing season the average home has more or less of these food products but lew few produce them for winter and spring use our average farm home docs does not have a balanced ration of common farm products for the table I 1 for the cow pigs cheep sheep cattle and poultry we are very short on such products as 83 beets sugar beets and mangles white carrots squish squash extra potatoes for such use and we have lit tle le corn or corn fodder but more aan than that we ue tall fail to make enough hay for our own use the common practice is to have no good hay by march 1st for nine consecutive scars we have not produced enough wheat just plain wheat for our own bread say nothing about the chickens pigs i cows etc and oats well three out of four farmers don dont t pretend to have half enough and perhaps one fourtha fourth never produce the crop barley and rye are almost unknown one third of our total bacad cither either baked in loaves leaves or rocked sacked in nice bags has been imported from west est of the waa was atch range during the last eight month
