'THE WAY TO SELL PROPERTY In last year's issue of The Bulletin containing Advertisements of Farms and Country Gentleman's Places For Sale, or Exchange, it was predicted that many of the places would be immediately sold, and the prediction proved true; for in the large list in today’s issue only a very few of them appear. Some who -advertised and sold their places wrote The Bulletin that they had several opportunities to sell as a result of the advertisement in that edition. Today's issue contains a list of farms in all sections of Connec- ticut, the prices ranging from a few hundred to thousands of dollars. In New London County one farm of about 60 acres is offered for $250.00, another of 339 acres for $1,600.00, and another of 148 acres for $600.00, and Litchfield County, has th= high priced farms, one of 12 acres being offered for $16,000.00, while others ranging from 45 to 160 acres’call for from $6,000.00 to $10,000.00 each. The accessibility of a farm, its productiveness and nearness to markets determines its value. : 40000000000000000000000000000000000000000000(0000000000900 05000 004000404 008000000 00000 for a vety attractive country home, price $6,000.

We a deal or “farming” of nonsense talked to and by our city friends about “abandoned farms.” A good many of us can't help smiling in a tied way when the talkk turns in_that direction. Nevert aré abandoned farms and fields all over and seml-; land and the east generally; mot very many of them; wailful wails would seem to be worth an not s0 many as the of summer visitors indicate; but enough to occasional thought. A good proportion of them are bléak, thin eoiled, wind swept hills which are not now and never were fit for anything but sheep pastures or woods. But some were originally fertile and profit- able. Those of this lat! er class might, agaln, be made fertile and profitable if some real farmer would take hold of the land the original “miner” exploit- ed and robbed and then deserted. OF course | know this Isn’t all there is to it. The desperate lack of farm labor; the vicissitudes of time; the va rying demands of whimsical markets— all enter into the problem.

By the way, when we speak of “fertilization,” do we all, always, comprehend that a shorter and sturd- fer Angio-Saxon word expresses the meaning even better? We feed our | cattle with cheap (I use the term com- paratively), with cheap fodders to get more valuable butter or beef. We teed our soils with chea “phosphates” to get more grain. Sometimes the use of long, Latinized word confuse nind, where a simpler and Saxon term would actually clear it up. We ‘“feed” our soil just as truly as we feed our cows and pigs. If we stop | feeding the latter they starve to death; it we stop “feeding” the soil it will starve us to death, sooner or later. The “old-fashioned” farmer fed hi farm with stable manure, solely. Then the modernized farmer t into chemicals at a great rate. The two classes have always been fighting over their fads, and are fighting over them yet. The advocates of both sides are partisans and, ljke all partisans, are one-sided and one-cyed, They can't see both sides of the stump, and they won't, won't, won't walk around it and look it over from all angles. Neighbor Hosking contends that “if youw'll only put on manure enough you can grow a good crop of anything” Jeighbor £herman maintains that you can raise bigger and better crops with commercial fertilizers than with sta- ble manure, and & good deal cheaper. And the two canm't be together five minutes befors they begln “argooin'® My own opinion is that either kind of manuring is more profitable than argumentation In the back room of the store, But, I doubt if either disputant is quite right. I'd like to see Hoskins raise a crop of early potatoes in the moist clay-loam back of my south meadow with stable manure alone. When I try it, I get a tremendous yleld of tops and rot. And I'd like to see Sherman raise a paying crop of corn on the gravelly sofl of my home lot, year after year, with his chemi- cals/ alone. The first-named soil doegn't need and won't use, profitably, stable manure furnishes. It results in a_ yield, all tops and no berries. The last-named soil does need and must have the nitrogen and, above all, the humus which stable manure sup- plies. If you're farming, as distinguished from mining, you'Ve got to feed your farm, And the question of how and what to feed it is the fundamental question in successful farming. Tho only way to get a satistactory answer to that question is to ask the farm what it wants. And the only way to ask is by “trying on” all sorts of sup- plies. Use your judgment and your reason, as far &g they go, in planning your experiments. Then subject the schemes reason has suggested to the test of the soil itself. ¥ou must walt A season for any answer; you may have to ask two or three times before you're sure you've read the answer right. But in the name of common sense, try to read the answer honestly and without prejudice.
