IIis living (Mi sts him more than it does any other average citi zen. We are not making this statement ourselves we are tak ing the word o f the average farmer who slates that all be gels from his labor ¡ h a living for himself and his family O f course it is a good living to which he more than any other citizen probably is entitled but v.e can think o f no oth er business where the average member o f that business slates that his entire earnings go to keep up the family expenses. Possibly this is because the average farmer considers his occupation a profession. He should give it a new name. His occupation is a business, and requires business sagacity iri its «.’onduct. The farm er—more than any other class o f citizens proba bly preaches cutting down the overhead in the conduct of government. He has good reason for this, hut he should also practice what he preaches by cutting down the overhead in his own business to a point where he is left a fair profit ev ery year. About the only way in which he can do this is to cut down the time it takes to perform his work, which cuts down his payroll and leaves as profit that which he needlessly has lieen putting into the cost o f production.
