FARM RENTALS
The general experience is that rent
ing farm property does not pay. The
Democrat has heard a ood many
complaints, few icporting even a fair
return for the rental; but the Farm
and Fireside says the business can
be made to pay and tells how as fol
lows: "'Our family ha been renting
farms for fifty years." John A. Cava
nagh of Des Moines, Iowa, owner oi
more than a thousand choice acres,
began his reply when I aked him why
his tenants were successful and how
tenants couid get farms of tlicir own.
'and I have seen many tenants come
and go with sone of the successful
ones going on their own farms. Dur
ing that time I have learned how to
make farms pay good rentals. I dn
it by meeting the tenants more than
halfway, and by managing the farms
aa if they were factories. The tenants
and 1 cut down the cost of production
by increasing the yield, and we get
the highest market price because we
have the quality and sell after most
of the grain in the country has been
marketed. We store the grain 1 in
well-ventilated, rat-proof, hollow-tile
corncribs and grain bins.
" 'Many things affect a tenant's
ability to bny a farm. Health is one
of the biggest factors, If a man en
joys health he can work at top speed,
his bram is clear and in ;ood work
ing order, he is cheerful and optimis
tic. If a tenant or members of his
family are ill often, he does not have
the ability to think and plan and work
as he should to make a success. He
needs horses and machinery and a
knowledge of successful farm prac
tiee in his State.'
"All of the Cavanaugh farms are
grain farms. An average year Mr.
Cavanagh's share of the crops exceeds
$10 an acre; in real good years it has
been as much as $12 and $14 an acre.
Mr. Cavanagh receives as rental one
half of the corn crop, two fifths of the
small grain, and $5 an acre for the
pasture land. This shows how much
money the tenants are making. All
of the farms are' tile-drained. Where
there is not enough manure produced
on the farms to keep up the fertility,
commercial fertilizes are used. All
the tenants have to do is to haul H to
the farms and apply it."
FAT GOOD AND BAD
In the February American Maga
zine there is an article on reducing
and gaining weight. The author says
"Between forty and fifty a man who
allows his weight to remain high is
running more danger of an early de
mise than he would run if he contract
ed typhoid fever. What is more, if
he were stricken with the disease -his
chance of recovery would he ten per
tent leas than normal. A man who is
thinner than the average, on the other
hand, has less danger of dying in this
decade than a man who tips the scales
at the normal figure.
"When a man is in his twenties a
deficiency of twenty pounds in weight
makes him twelve per cent more
liable to fall before the scythe of the
implacable reaper. A slight surplus
of flesh seems to assist one in escap
ing diseases that cause death in this
period principally turberculosis and
typhoid fever.
"A man in his fifties who is twenty
pounds over normal weight has a fif
teen per cent mortality handicap to
face. Should he be forty pounds over
weight his chances of dying are in
creased forty-five per cent thereby."

Be Sure the Milk You Use
Is Clean
THERE is no question about tbe
superior food value of milk and
the greater economy of using
more of it in place of other less nour
ishing and more costly foods. , Five
cents worth of bread and milk has
more food value than any other kind
of a lunch that can be prepared at
three times the cost.
You should look carefully into the
manner in which the milk you use
is produced. Cleanliness is a most
important factor. We have never
hesitated to adopt any means that
would make our milk cleaner and
more wholesome. The latest improvement added lo our rairy is the
De Laval Milk Clarifier.
On learning that there could be no certainty of milk being per
fectly clean unless centrifugally clarified, we installed this machine
It removes impurities that are present to some extent in all milk, re
gardless of how carefully it is produced. The use of this machine is
"imes "suranc to TOU ,h mijk will be uniformly clean at all
By means of tremendous centrifugal force it expels from milk im
purities that cannot be kept out and cannot be removed by straining
or filteriog.
De Laval Clarified Milk is the only milk you can be sure is per
fectly clean. Insist upon getting it.
