Equipment and appliances cost money. But what real material benefits does one get in this life without cost? It’s the thing that costs that we work hardest for and that we appreciate the most, and it is usually the thing that brings us the most satisfaction and profit. Why do Why do Why do all cost we educate our ch Idren? It costs money. we have our tooth filled? It costs money. we buy cars, tractors, binders, etc.? They money. But in addition to their cost we think of giving our children a better chance, of biting down on a solid tooth, of saving in horse feed and time —the pleasure of possession and care. We also think of the added profits that may come from our stepped-up activities. Yes, electricity costs, but compared to the results it costs very little.
