This sum m er it grew 10 ac res of barley. 8S ac re s of corn and 60 acres of w heat to support it* 80 Hereford» and 200 hogs. F a rm e rs ' Welfare F irst The K ram er place, a m ile and n h alf up the road from the Berke- m eler's. has a flock of SO sheep. They a re not only a source of cash Income. They free Joe K ra m e r from the task of keeping fence lines cleaned, nnd furnish C hristine K ra m e r with a source of m ateria l for the blanket» and ca rp ets she has woven during the p ast three years. Wendell W illkic's idea seem s to be th a t the farm er who m akes the best living as well as the su rest profit Is the farm er with a low overhead. By this, he does not believe th at wages should be peeled to 1890 levels nor th a t farm ers should sta rv e their fam ilies and U innsclvas In order to build up a bank account. To the contrary, he Insists that the op era to r's own bodily w elfare com e be fore other consideration» The trim home», vegetable garden», fruit tree* and chicken yard* on each Willkie farm a rc proof to th a t end. He docs vigorously oppose the farm practice of »citing on a whole sale m ark et and buying extensively on a retail m ark et, especially when It com es to the m a tte r of m ateria ls th a t can be grown at home. T hat belief shakes down to the rule that lies behind the success of the five f a rm s :—• balanced ratio of live stock and home-grown feed. The whole plan for operation of the farm s seem s to be ch aracteristic of their owner. G enerous co n sid era tion for the fact th at his associates in their m anagem ent a rc entitled to live well was one of his first thoughts. He laid down the basic principles of operation — selecting those that successful farm ers had found to be profitable—and then t Lights darrtorltan h o sp ital.
