There is nothing like talking hard
times to make hard times. When all
talk "blue" dull times follow, for con-
fidence is los. and everybody becomes
restless and uneasy and frightened.
Of course talking won't put wheat up
to dollar bushel, but it will help
nightly to satisfy one with present
prices to know that bushel of wheat
will buy just as much as it ever
would, and knowing this to talk it.
There is really no occasion for get
ting down hearted. Crops have been
abundant, almost too abundant, and
there isn't the slightest indication of
a panic. Just now everyone is hold
ing tightly to the dollars for fear
they can't get any more when these
are gone. If all do this of course
these dollars can't circulate. And if |
the dollars don't circulate times will |
be hard. Don't scatter the money |
around recklessly, don't throw it
away, but, on the other hand, don't |
be afraid to use it carefully. Above
