but the house will never help build the barn," is
'a common saying amongst farmers. It's good
business when making the first permanent improvements on
the farm, to put up iirst the buildings tliat Help most to
make money.
Every dollar put into a good modern barn is returned
many-fold to the fanner. Cow comfort and horse comfort ;
mean man profit. Live stock kept well and vigorous pays a
handsome dividends. ' JL
There is no need to argue the case for the mod
