Remove the Penalty Dear Editor-Answering your sug­ gestion In Kansas Farmer for ideas on how to conduct a face-lifting program on Kansas farms, I am submitting my idea. In the first place, there is no argu­ ment about the need. A drive over the countryside will remove all doubt about the need if there is any. I believe if the penalty for improving our farms was removed. there are a great num­ ber of farmers and landlords who would be willing to spend some money and effort along this line. At present, whenever new buildings are built or the old ones repaired and painted, up goes the assessed valuation which means the penalty goes on in the form of higher taxes. I know landlords who say that their land has as high a rental value unimproved as with a set of good buildings, who have removed buildings and rent the land to someone living on other farms. As long as we follow our present system of penalizing a farmer for his improvement, we are holding back any move to make our farmsteads more attractive and useful.-G. F. Jones. Wakarusa, Shawnee county.

Stnck to the Farm

When Jake Mohler started out to look for a family that had occupied the same farm for at least 75 years, he really started something. �e genial secretary of the State Board of Agri­ culture hc.s been swamped with en­ tries. At least 150 families in the state have occupied their farms for 75 years or more. Champion to date is the- Todhunter family, of Douglas county, which has a record of 92 years on the same farm. Present occupant is George L. McCarty, son of an orphaned niece of the Todhunters. Eleven families fell just one year short of the Todlhinters, having homesteaded in 1854·, and hav­ ing continuously occupied their farms for 91 years.
