Two KINDS OF BUSINESS MES-We tax

Two KINDS OF BUSINESS MEN-We take
this from the Au,erscan F,srHser:
One can admire the man who knowing
his business thoroughly loves it for the
money he makes out of it to support him
self and family and who therefore pros
ecutes it with all of his intelligence and
energy, says the Rural World. But there
are croakers in every business who think
they could do better at anything else and
can see no money in farming, One of these
men will succeed but it will not be the
latter. 1t Is necessary to success that a
man throw all of his enthusiasm into his
business; no half-heaTtedness Is calculated
to succeed.
