How to Drop the Crime, Crowding, and High Cost of Living - and Make a Real Living Thought about living a peaceful, quiet, and safe life? Do you think a healthy farming lifestyle has to be done on a huge scale? Think again. "Too many in these several classes think they know enough. They measure a man's knowledge by the number of his acres. Hence, in their eyes the owner of a plot so humble as mine must know so little as to be unable to teach them any thing new. "Happily, it is not for these that I write, and it would be unreasonable to expect them to become readers. I write more for those who have not been brought up as farmers-for that numerous body of patient toilers in city, town, and village, who, like myself, have struggled on from year to year, anxious to break away from the bondage of the desk, the counter, or the workshop, to realize in the country even a moderate income, so that it be a sure one."
