profit to the farmer Is very large., in
reality, the profits realised by in
farmers by renting inese lanas are
greater than they would be if owned
by the fanners themselves, since a
comparatively small working capital

land will, thla year, produce tbe larg-

provided the grain escape Injury

The company baa been formed sole
