A big serm on on how success is

from him . T h is y ear his nujgt pro

potatoes. On th re e -to u rth a o f 'a p acre
of real e arly ones he sold 330A vforth.
The h ig h est price received, I believe,
was a b o u t nine c en ts a potind. In

Today, c o u n tin g h is young stu ff,

goal is 20 head of p roducing cows
w orking p ra c tic a lly all of th e tim e
for him , an d he has ab o u t filled his
herd.
The cows on h is farm a re headed
