Our locdl grange had’a symposium on “One Hundred Years of Farming,” re- cently. Somé of the old veterans told of farming as it was dome fifty years agae. Then the lecturer cailed on me t6 tell how. it would be done, fifty years hence. 1 never graduated from any school of the prophets but, as # loyal patron, could not refyse to do any work duly assign- €d. Following is the stab I made at it Perhaps my guesses may suggest some- thing te others: There are seven days in thé week, and seven ages in the Iife of man; there were seven kine and seven ears of corn in Pharaoh’s .dream; there were seven churches of Asia and seven champlons of Christendemn; seven wise men of | Greece and seven wonders of the worid. T can imafine seven developments in farming during the next half-century, all of which are within the range of poss! bility, and towards all of which some sort of start has already been made. Whether any or all of them will actual- ize is another proposition. We farmers are rather slow to take a hint, some- times, and.a good many of us like to keep in the yut. Some of us, too, are “dreffle sot” agin’ anything new. But, in view of the amazing changes which have Deen shown us as ccourring in the last fifty years, we need not be too conservative in listing the possibilities of the coming fifey. Here arc my seven forecasts: 1—Fijty yetrs from now every farmer will have his own small hot-house, built in a sheltered nook against the dwelling, with double glass walls and roof, heated by the house furnace, and used to beat the elimate at its own game. One-half will be devoted to the starting of early vegetables and fruits and the growing of some out of season. The other half will be for the flowers which The M atfend to. There will also be a compact; convenient kitchen.garden, half of it un- der a_permanent glass roof for the grow- ing of semi-tropcal vegetables, like to- matoes, pepr egg-plant, Lima beans, Watermelons, ete. The whole garden will B2 ifrigable from overhead water- pipes. By these means the present two or {hree ‘monghs’ fruiting season will be lengtheried by more than half. Moreover, each farm Will be equipped With its own complete capning plant, so that all the vegetables and fruits and herries grown for usé diring the harvestless season. This will b~ done, not only from a desire aconomy. At a recent meeting of the Association a promi- member declared that the home- was the best. {n all senses, add- ing that thore was no reason why any housekeeper in Michigan _should~ eyer Luy a can of vegetables put up outside that state. (They used,to say: oose. i3 sauce for the gander. In that, if home canning is good ichigander ,it is_just as good for an eastern goosel) - Also, in that wiser day, the farmer will know that as_be- ween the same money put into a3 good Micltigan ' Canners’ nent put into,_ the, garden will pay the biggest dividends. And _the coming farmer wonxl throw away mofey, when he gees it, just because it's t66 much trouble to put it in Fiity years from mnow, the farmer Wwon't have to Ieave any field unworked because the sofl has “run out” and he hasn't manure enough to fertilize it. By that time the new agricnlture °which Prof. Esten of Connecticut has alread demonstrated for six years on five acres of abandoned pasture in that state will hjive been universally accepted, and the beneficent soil bacteria, whose activitles he has regulated and appropriated, Wi be relied upon to restore lost fertility maintain present fertility, and increa fdture fertility.

Not that I know of any_ guch tractors, mow. But the same ix16 oot | ! harrow and cultivate and mow and dlgl potatoes dnd haul 1oads over any sort of road or fleld or woodland. Henry Ford isn’t the Last Man. There are going to be others, just as inventive, just as good mecharifes, and just as foresighted as he. Moreover, they'll have better tools and a w!j’e’r knowledge to work with. And they'll do things which would make his P gaP 4—By ihat time people will have dis- covered what asises they've been in turn- runs.

They will have learned that thelr woods are worth as much to them as their corn or potato flelds. They will expect as regular an income from their sales of lumber as from their sales of grain. They will give at least as much thought and good will to theéir timber as to their hay. Instead of regarding “forestry” as a sort of “high-brow” fad, they will accept it as an important and profitable form of farm work, Lands too thin-soiled or too other reason unsui to GRANDMA USED BAGE TEA TO DARKEN HAIR She md.‘up a mixture of Sage 'b’-"... and Sulphur to bring back color, = gloss and youthfulness. i Common gardén sage brewed into ¥ heavy tea with sulphur added, wil' turn gray, streaked and faded haiie beautifully dark and luxuriant.
