Excerpt from Profitable Dairying: A Practical Guide to Successful Dairy
The last two decades have witnessed greater changes and more material improvements than any previous century. When these improvements will have so far progressed as to render further change unnecessary no man can predict. Manufacturers to day are compelled to recognize these changes in their business and adjust the cost of production so as to meet the changed conditions, or they must go out of business. The farmer is now buying for forty-five dollars a better mowing machine than could be put on the market thirty-five years ago for one hundred dol lars. These remarkable changes are common to nearly all industries.
The time is comparatively recent when farming was regarded as a business requiring little or no previous preparation to be successfully conducted, and was followed by a class of men who considered themselves qualified for nothing else and who selected it as a business more from necessity than from choice. In fact, in many localities this idea still prevails. The young man who thought he had. A gift for me chanics, or a capacity for mastering some one of the professions, considered himself fortunate in not being obliged to live on the farm.
