This is a simple story of what has been done by a man, at forty-five years of age, town bred and city educated, getting out of practice of medicine, buying a small farm in the hill country, and making a success of the venture. Not only is the rearing of chicks and the management of adult fowl completely covered, but the interesting side issues of fruit growing, grain raising and the production of milk, that cannot be escaped on a real farm. You get rugged facts-rarely found in print. The truth about poultry as found in actual life on a one-man poultry farm.

Mr. Clarence C. DePuy, Syracuse, N. Y.
My Dear Sir:
The copy of One-Man Poultry Plant, by Dr. N. W. Sanborn, came to me promptly, and I have spent several pleasant evenings reading and rereading its sensible, timely suggestions. I find time to care for a profitable flock of 250 as a side line to a very busy life. I have read many works recently along the line of this book, but I have found nothing else so inspir- ing to a love of the real work of poultry keeping as is this little pamphlet, and thank you for directing my attention to it.
Very cordially yours, G. V. Buchanan.

EATON COUNTY SOME FACTS AND FIGURES
E ATON COUNTY, with a total of 3,902 farms in an area of 571 square miles, is distinctly a farm county. More than 94 per cent. of the entire area of the county is in its farms, and more than 77 per cent. is under cultivation. The farms are, as a rule, of more than average size, less than 3 per cent. being under ten acres. They are almost, without exception, profitable and correspond- ingly valuable. The farmers, as a class, are the most prosperous folks in the county. In view of the number of farms, that is in itself a state- ment of the wealth of this section.
The farm population of Eaton County is almost exclusively native- born white. There are but few foreign, and only 3 negro farmers in the entire county, according to the most recent United States Government statistics.
It is interesting to note the number of farms in the county operated by their owners. Of this class there are 2,990, or 76 per cent. One

thousand four hundred and eighty-eight, or 49 per cent. of them are reported free of mortgage debt. This is an exceptionally large per- centage. Of the balance, the remarkably low mortgage indebtedness of only 31 per cent. of the entire valuation is carried. Even in the absence of other statistical figures, these mortgage statements alone would indi- cate exceptional prosperity among Eaton County farmers.
The largest single crop, and the one produced most generally throughout the entire county, is corn, of which 1,376,405 bushels were produced in 1910, a notably bad crop year, but the latest for which authoritative figures are available. Following closely on this for quantity is oats, with a total of 978,556 bushels; wheat comes next, with 356,854 bushels ; potatoes fourth, with 305,336 bushels. The combined total value of these four crops was in excess of two and one-half million dollars.
Everywhere is an atmosphere of hard work. Everyone takes work seriously and as a matter of course. There is no false pride about it, and no failure to realize its importance and its necessity. Rich farmers' wives and sons and daughters take pride in their fine butter, their eggs, their vegetables, their chickens and their stock. The relations between the people of the farms and the people of the country seat are most cordial. The farmers deposit their savings in the local banks, and deal in the local stores.
This directory is published in the belief that it will serve to acquaint the residents of one end of the county with those of the other. We believe it to be accurate. We realize, however, that even in the most carefully compiled and printed books certain errors are bound to appear, and we apologize in advance for any such that may be found by our subscribers.
