Back to the Land

In the face of what boys have been doing the last few years on the farm, especially in raising corn, why should boys leave the farm? The two champion seed-corn growers of Texas are two boys yet well down in their teens. They have demonstrated that the old farms which raised from 15 to 18 bushels per acre can be made to raise from 80 to 150 bushels per acre; and there is real education in every step of the way. "Back to the land" in a wise way is wisdom.
