INN EH REPOR GERMANY ILL NOT INSIST' Oil CO-OPERATION OE S IT i ra Greater eo operation botwoon farmers and bankers so that tho business or producing farm pro ducts can be financed along the same lines si the business of manu facturing ami suiting merchanJIio of alt kinds will cut tho coat of food production and Incrcasa farm profits, asserts George A. Woodford In an artlcto on "Tho Itelatlon of tlanklog to tho Iluslness of Farm ing," In tho current Issue of Farm Mechanics magatlne. "In tho fifty years from 1840 to 1800, tho development of farm ma chtnery enabled four men to do the work that required 14," says Mr. Woodford. "Today wo are faced with the problem of so equipping tho farms of the nation that one man can produce as much as tho four In 1890, or the 14 In 1840. "More than that, we want to re dace the day's work of that ono iiiu 10 b normal lengio, euminnio th unnecessary drugory, and of ford him the conveniences and pleasures that have mado city tlto attractive, "And still more. o must onabto him to get greater production from the land that bo now farms, for lit tle new land la available, and the over-Increasing demands of tho na tion's population must be taken care of by better mo of tho land wo now have. "Can It bo done?" "Certainly It Is being done nn many farms; modern methods, ma terial and machinery that will ac complish- this are now available. Tried and proven, they stsnd ready to help tho farmer produce bigger and better crops In less time with less work at less expense. . 'Farm life without the drudgery, farm life with all modern conven ience, farm life that Is more at tractive. Interesting; and profitable Is within our reach. "Present-day methods of farming with power enable one man In n ten-hour day to plow 10 to 12 acres, cultivate 14 to 20, disc, drill or hsr vest 35 to 40 acres, and do all other field work proportionately as tasi They enable him to do his own shelling nnd separating, to fill his silo and handle other such Jobs quickly and economically. Thoy re duce to a minimum In fact, cm many farms have eliminated the expense and work of feeding and caring for horses. 'Farm lighting plants not only furnish modern light, but with tho equipment that may be used with them, removo the drudgery of milk ing, separating, churning, washing' and scores of similar tasks, that 'take the Joy out of life on the farm. Yet 70 per cent of the farm homes stilt use kerosene lamps. "Transportation furnished by the motor truck Is rapidly becoming a necessity to tho successful farmer; the automobile brings the city near, with ull tho advantages, both of pleasure and profit, that result "Good seed, fertiliser, nnd Intelll gent methods produco 60 bushels of corn to tho aero, whllo 26 Is tho present average; the efficient furm or rulses 25 bussels of wheat where others grow 15. And In thl wuy onn aero Is mado to do tho work of two, yet the labor required Is scarcely Increased; In fact, by tho use of tho best machiuory Is cut in half. "Thoro aro equally great posxlbll Hies throughout tho list or farm products. Puro bred livestock, with proper caro and feeding, will bring more than proportionately increased returns. "Hut you may say all this cots monoy, n great deal of money, and tho average farmer cannot afford to mako use of the advantages offered him, As un Invcstniout, they may ult bring a handHomo pro'fit, yet It thoy cannot bo paid for, how can tho Investment bo mndo? "There Is one answer that eovors tho wholo question. "Tho farm must bo put on n busi ness basis. "In business ono does not wait for years until ho has saved enough to pay tor a stock of goods. Ho goes to the bank, and It his proposition Is Bound, ho gota tho monoy and uses It' to produco the profits that onable him 'to progress rapidly, pro viding, of courso, that ho has thu ability to go with It. "Jo doesn't buy on long tonn credit, and pay manufacturers tho hlghor rato which they must cbargo for n service that should bo handled by tho local bankor.
