TTE doe« not run his farm in the haphazard fashion he
■A A did ten years ago. It’s his business. He figures his
costs and profits.
He knows, of course, what he gets out of the productive
acres of his farm—and how much he is paying out in taxes
on the idle unproductive stump and swamp land that brings
in nothing.
That Is Why He Is Clearing More Land Every Year
It’s just good business. Every acre cleared and planted
means more profit every year. The clearing cost is »«»«lly
more than covered by the first crop.
More land is being cleared, too, because of the manufacture
of dynamite made for this purpose, which makes the work
easier, quicker and more economical.
