/ Short Shorthorn â€" Cjene Holler shows off Ferdinand, one of the herd of dwarf cattle he found in a secret "lost canyon" near Jamestown, N.D. Ferdinand is 28 inches high and weighs 225 pounds. Veterinarians say he's a perfect dwarf Hereford, about two years old. At that age, Ferdinand should be an excellent source of minute steaks and short ribs. THEFAEMFEONT olm12u&5eiL ^i?m3L_» When people drive past your l*rm today, tthey mig'ht say, "That's the Soanso place. Best farm in the county." liut did you ever wonder what they'll be saying about it 10 or 15 years from now? * « * Recently, the tditors of Wallaces' Farmer, published in Iowa, have been looking over a number of place,' that once were considered Â¥he "best fa/rms in their communi- ties." This is what they report â€" "Some of them look terrible now! Buildings arc run down. Soil ii getting thin. Often, there ii a one- year tenant on the place." * « ♦ What happened? Did a tornado itrike or a drought hit? No. Did low prices wipe out the operator? No, prices have been good. .Ml rhat happened was this: The farmer who owned the place held on to it until his death. Then k was «livi<)ed among several Children. * • * That i.s ilie customary way for fabrm operators to handle their prop- •rty. It also â€" in some cases â€" is a good way to ruin a good farm. Take John X, for example. We don't dare call names and counties la a cast like this. But John is like • dozen otJher farmers we know. Jolhn died in 1928. One of liis boys liouxht out the two girls and the other son. That started the boy on the farm with a heavy ) mortgage. * • » He lost t)h« p.Jace in 1932. Tihe farm has been rented since. The community has lost a first-rate Iftrm family. The farm itself has gone dowrthill. John's boy, now farming else- wftiert, and getting along, had a hard time Retting over hi.i bad start. Bucky's Bacli â€" . lanley "Bucky" Harris smiles l)roadly >£ he *i{(iis a three-year con- tract in \Vashinf(ton to ivianage the W'asliington Senators base- ball team. It will be the third time as the Senators' manager for Hucky, whose most recent job was with San Diego in the Pacific Coast League. Are there better ways to handle the job of passing on a farm from one generation to the next? We think so. There are two major points to watch: 1. Get the settlement made early •o that everybody will know how thing's are going to work out. Don't leave it to the executor of your •atate. He's no .smarter than you arc. 2. In any disposition of the farm, use an api)raisal based on 30-year average yields and prices. Don't put an inflati-d value on the place. »- » * Maybe Jolm X, 65, calls the four children in, and says: "Your ma and 1 are going to quit farming. I've had the farm appraised. If prices the next 30 years average out the way they have been tihc last 30 years, it's worth about $20,000. We'll sell for that. Who wants it to live on?" If only one of the dhiltlrcn wants the farm, tihat makes it easy. If two want it, they may have to match coins. Hut don't split it up unless it is plainly too big. If it ii a good working unit now, leave if t^at way. â- Â» ♦ ♦ What terms? Joihn X goes on: "I'll sell the machinery and live •tock for cash. You can have tihe place on contract. I'll make you a rate of interest just a little below the land bank rate. "But you'll have to keep book* and pay me one-half of the net in- coime of the farm each year. Tliat applies on the principal and interest. "If you have a bad year, your payment will be cut down accord- ingly- And I'll have to draw on my bonds to get along. But you won't be wrecked by heavy pay- ments in a bad year." * » » It might be still better if John X, at 50, he« his boy coming to work the farm on shares. .'Vnd for John lo »ay tihen: "Fifteen years from now, I'll probably retire. When I do, thii fa the kind of deal I want to make whh you. And I'll fix my will to that if anything happens to me, that deal will atart at once." ♦ » » It's hard to ask outright about thuigi like tlhis. A boy can't tay, "Pop, some day you'll be hauled off by the undertaker. What happtni to me and tihe farm then?" Yet a boy, working on the home farm, hat a rig^ht to know what't ahead. Definite plans ihould ba made for dliposition of the larm whan the father qufts or dies. All men are born equal. How Aajr flnlah depends on what they're equal to.

ISSUE 4S 1949 More and more it >• coming to look at though the honeymoon fa definitely over ao far as sport* pro- motion in the United States ii con- cerned. Of course fight gates have been "off" for many months; but that was put down, by aports writ- ers and other "experts" as largely due to the sad lack of colorful and reasonably workmanlike leather heavers, especially in the heavy- weight division. » * * But now the folks who set in cash at the box-offices are staying away from football â€" both the col- lege and honestly professional var- ieties â€" in increasingly large and painful quantities. Stadium sellouts, which were the rule during wartime and immediately post-wartime days, are the exception now. In sport, at in many other lines of trade, they're having a buyer's rather than a sell- er's market. .And the colleges and promoters who went clean over- board building hat;e arenas and vast stadiums are beginning to worry more than a trifle. * ♦ * Take the University of Pennsyl- vania, for example. In Franklin Field, Penn has one of the biggest stadiums in the States, seating more than 78,000. Last fall they had sell- outs for practically every home game, with a total attendance of over 460,000 in seven contests. Their first two opponents this season were Dartmouth and Columbia, both gen- erally big drawing cards. Yet in the two games the paying client* numbered only around 70,000 all told. And that with a winning teaml * * ♦ This is merely one example, taken from many; and the reason we men- tion it is not because we think that both our readers are especially in- terested in United States football, but because sports trends here have a way of following those south of the border. What is happening there is liable to be duplicated, before too long, right here. When that day comes, the reactions of certain pro- moters, in danger now of becom- ing round-shouldered from patting themselves on the back, will be worth watching. .'\nd hearing. * ♦ * From the first we have contended that major league hockey was more or less smacUing easy-to-please cus- tomers in the face by cutting out the overtime, and allowing teams to settle for a draw. But, "Just look at the sellout crowds and mobs beg- ging for tickets" was the only reply we ever got. » ♦ ♦ Well, as already stated, what hap- pens in the States can, and frequent- ly does, occur right here. And if certain hockey bazzaars should some day be begging for patronage, instead of turning it more or le*i politely away, in our opinion the tie-game farce will have had no little to do with bringing about such a condition. « * * The National Hockey League season is still young. As we pound out these lines a total of twenty-six games have been played. And of those twenty-six, exactly ten â€" al- most forty per cent â€" have ended in draws. , * * * Boxing bouts used to be â€" perhaps still are â€" advertised with a line reading something like FIFTEEN ROUNDS TO A DECISION. * ♦ ♦ If things keep up as they are going, We suggest that professional hockey games should be billed SIXTY MINUTES TO NO DE- CISION.'
