Take the man who farms for the pur
pose of growing his family supplies,
without having them to buy. He raises
nearly everything that his family con
sumes. Having a variety of small crops,

the other fellow. Panics do not affect
him, for his crops are not under mortg
age and he has no debts. His food, and
much of his raiment, is as sure a the
return of the seasons. He farms for a
living, and he 'makes it, that is, if com
senso and ordinary industry are invoked.
