The city people do not realize this until they get hut in the country. In considering the farmer, bear in mind that he spends approximately eight month* raising a crop, for which he generally does net have a single order until he has harvested it and that he does not know what the price will be at which he must sell it. In other words, in early spring, the farmer says "I will plow and fertilize this field; I will plant it with grain; I will cultivate it and if the weather is favorable, I will have a good yield by the end of summer. Then I will har vest my crop and I will offer it on the market. I hope the price will be high enough to repay me for all my labor." Ho* many in the cities Would care to opbrite on that basis? As salesmen and advertisers, we grow discouraged if We do not see tangible results from our efforts each day. the former's labor of a whole sea son may be dissipated by a few days of unfavorable weather just previous to or during the harvest Yet there are millions of farmer* in this country who are following the plow year after year.
