MOney-Makfng
Independence

A few years ago | met a farmer
who told me that from his earliest rec
objection he had never worried about
money. He always felt competent to
handle those subjects without any
special mental effort.
There were other subjects over
which he worried. and no doubt many
who worry great deal about how to
get a living are free from trouble
when 1t comes to subjects that wor-
ried the farmer.
II a person can be born so that max
ing money or getting living does not
cause any trouble, there must be a
mechanical path to follow in reaching
these desirable conditions.
One rule for earning money is to
find out what you can best do. and
then seek the right market for your
work, and study supply and demand
and competition.
Naturalists tell us that in a school
Of fish those in the fore part are fat,
while the fish that bring up the rear
are always lean. This was true in a
certain locality on the subject OF
small fruit. Those who began raising
berries made nice sums of money
from their investments, but in few
years, when everybody was raising
hem. there was no money in it.
Commercial sense enables one to
anticipate conditions and wants, and
DE among the first to supply those
wants.
l noticed few months ago shoe
maker selecting a very desirable loca-
lion. one that would grow better with
each succeeding year. and he illus
trated his foresight in looking over
he field and securing the place which
ne did for his shop. Selecting a
location is one OF the main sources of
success.
Just after the war. friend told me
that he went West looking for loca-
lion. He studied two cities, and at
that time he was unable to see any
difference between them. but since
then one has grown but very little.
while the other has doubled several
lines in population.
From the way In which some men
select wisely nine times out of ten.
there must be signs or principles to go
by in this important part Of prosper
ity.

Is practically new industry-the
making OF alcohol from potatoes on a

unlimited quantity from the potato

Youth and Vocation.

A youth, remarks Success. should
not choose vocation merely because
he thinks he will attain distinction or
make money in 1t. Above his ambition
to become a great merchant. lawyer.
statesman. physician, artist or musi-
clan. should be desire to become a
noble man. Other things being equal.
he should choose that vocation which
offers the largest opportunity for
growth, and which will keep pushing
his horizon little farther and farther
away from him. There are many call
ings that do not tend to develop
man and keep him growing after the
first few years. The discipline in
them is only a repetition of the exer-
else of certain faculties. There is no
pushing out, no variety OF experience.

conditions Is as follows:
The temperature conditions for the

favorable. although cool nights were
detrimental in the south Atlantic,
Eastern and central Gulf states. while
light to heavy frosts, for the most
part causing no serious injury, were
reported in the most northerly dis
tricts eastward OF the upper Missouri
valley.
A marked feature of the week was
the absence of rain. or the lack of any
thing except light showers, over much
the greater part of the country east
of the Rocky mountains, there being
only few areas, of comparatively
limited extent, in the upper Mississip-
pi valley. the lake region and the
coast districts of the middle Atlantic
states and southern New England. in
which the rainfall exceeded the aver.
age.
Drought in Ohio.
Drought continues in the Ohio val
ley and with increased severity In
Tennessee and the central and west
Gulf states.
No unfavorsble conditions are re-
ported from the Pacific coast, although
rain In southern California possibly
may have caused slight injury. South
ern Arizona and southwestern New
Mexico received unusually heavy
rains for that region, more than two
inches being reported from several
stations.

enced weather conditions exception
ally favorable for maturing late corn.
and while frosts have been quite gen.
eral over the central and eastern por.
tons Of the corn belt, no material
damage is indicated. Probably less
than 20 per cent of the crop in Iowa
is unmatured, and while the proper.
ton yet exposed to injury In South
Dakota, Minnesota and Wisconsin Is
greater the immature will make good
feed. Farther south only a small part
Of the crop is still soft. Cutting is
general in all sections, and some new
corn has been marketed in southern
