The most useful’ information on

any question ia that obtained from iN

men whose methods used in solving it have been successful. '

The .problem of laboi- has been handled on Brookwood Farms, Bar- 3 ryville, N. Y., in such`a way that' 90 per cent uf the men who were employed there thre`e years ago are still working on the farm. Morris 'l`

I-I. Roberts Jr., the manager, sums “ll the matter up in these words: ll"

"There are various conditions or S reasons why farm hands do n'ot re- ,_ -main long on certain farms. There i ara- also all kinds of farm hands. Some are of a roving disposition ,i

and never stay more than a lcwfinu months on any job. Some are lazy _ii_

and are late with their work; oth- in

"They say labor is scarce. That 'v'v"`“‘-*-

may be true, but it is not the only factor in the labor problem. If a B farmer has trouble in keeping good ll men, he sllould determine why his Bi men do not stay longer anti also ; what he can do to make tht-in ii stay."

The fbaby of to~dsy is the man or

If the baby is sickly and ill nourished it is not to be expected that he will grow into a strong, active man who will hold his own in the business world a few years hence. Mothers it is li. duty you owe the fu ture to keep your little ones'weil now. This can be easily done ii Baby‘s Ovm Tab- lets- are kept in the house.
