Non- Ficld Records Is Farming Easy Way to Make Money ? DITOR Nonpartisan Lead- er: I always like to read letters written by farm- ers. I left Colorado May 29, 1918. In December, 1918, I bought 80 acres of land here in Montana, started to farm and was going to get rich in one year. I always thought a man could make a big pile of money on a farm. Herewith I am sending a field record of my crop in 1919, from which you can see how much I made. My land includes 46 acres irrigated and 34 acres not irrigated, in section 13-30-3 west. 47 acres broke up, at $6..$282.00 Disking and harrowing... 136.00 Seeding, at $1.25 per acre 58.75 Irrigating, eight days, at $4 32.00 Seed 88X i s ieiaes 52.98 Dibehing .- onsvsceisinis 16.50 Harvesting .......cc00n- 21.00 Threshing labor ......... 16.00 Threshing bill .......... 37.60 Rock picking .....cecae. 22.50- Hauling to market ...... 17.60 Horse feed during work 65.00 Header hire ............ 23.00 Surveyor .....cecceieinnn 15.00 TObAY ooaiedarzis v $795.93 My crop was 176 bushels of flax, which I sold at $4.25, $4.62 and $4.78, bringing me $802.73. There were also seven acres of oats which I cut for feed (about two tons). But besides the farm expenses I had to have a house and fence the place, which amounted to $285. I failed to keep a full record of my store bills, but what I did keep amounted to $272.50. So I figure my total expenses were $1,- 353.33, my crop was $802.73, which left me in the hole $550.60. But we will try it again in 1920 and see how I come out this time. The farmers and laborers are going to give Montana a big lift next Novem- ber—wait and see. Conrad, Mont. FRED HEINITZ. FROM NORTH DAKOTA Editor Nonpartisan Leader: Seeing in the Leader field records of others thought I would send you mine.

The total value of goods which the society manufac- tured for itself amounted to $37,- 065,676 in 1919, CROP ROTATION At the Hettinger (N. D.) experi- mental substation wheat planted after wheat went 12 bushels per acre, but wheat after potatoes produced 19 bushels, and wheat after corn 18 bushels. Wheat on summer fallow went 20 bushels. The corn and pota- toes, in addition to increasing the yield of wheat, gave a valuable crop. ADVERTISEMENTS The progress of the past, as well as that of the future, is measured by criticism—for criticism exists only where there also exists faith in ability to improve. We do not criticise an ox cart or condemn the tallow dip, for the simple reason that they are obsolete. During the reconstruction period through which our country is now passing, if the public does not criticise any public utility or other form of service, itis because there seems One Policy the kernel without the proper care of KOV. kind of land—turns the soil and gives the air and sun a chance to help the soil pro- duce—cultivation trogen produces the kernel.
