Under normal conditions, ft safe investment is pure bred stock. Substantial building and machin- ery as well as land are good Investments. Are there possibilities on your farm that have been overlook- ed? We will be glad to confer with you in forming plans for making sate investments on your farm, with the idea of greater and more uniform profits.
