Farming in its true sense implies & great deal more than we ordinarily | attach to the word. Good farming | consists in growing the maximum | amount of whatever crop we grow at the minimum cost, and leaving the toil in the best possible condition for eneceeding crops. It implies even far The quality or mar- ket value of the erop must be consid- ered and the fertility of the soil be maintained and incre In this sense cropping is not fan ing. The great bulk of “farmers” are croppers, not farmers. This is emphatically true of me “tenant farmers.” Farming also implies in a most practical sense the curing, handling, storing and marketing ofall kinds of farm produce. A snecessful farmer is not one who succeeds in ac- cumulating some money by impover- ishing his farm. ‘This system might work well for a time on our newer soils, but on some, which have been farmed for centuries, we must prac- tice true farming. The fertility of the soil must be maintained; econom- ically if possible, but expensively if need be. Some of the old Lancaster yunty farms which have been culti- vated for more than 200 years are to- y yielding crops unsurpassed by our newer rich western lands. ‘This is also true of many other of the farm lands of our state. Lancaster county s holds the credit of being the banner | agricultural county in this union, Its annual crops are éaid to be of greater money value than any other county The cultivating of these farms and maintaining, if not increasing their fertility, and diversifying the crops as a close study of the markets will sug- gest, is in the line of true farming, and no doubt prompted the assertion made at the alumni dinner In this connection we most posi- tively assert farmer requires a high an order of intellect and as great an amount of training, in order to be well equipped for his business, as th required by any other business or fession, This business is more varied, demanding a wider range of knowl edge to understand the wonderful forces of nature than that of ed. | any other one business, The am vs young n in casting about for a field of labor which will employ all hia talent and which taleut and labor may be made remunerative (if agreeable to his tastes, and prosecuted with an in- telligent and enthusiastic zeal) need look no farther than the study and pract f farming AY honorable, independent and abs y necessary, the one occur which has mr wi the ful forces «< Ohio er THE SIYOTs.
