Attention,
Farmers:

Why remain in the North and stay
in doors six months in the year con.
Stunning what you raise during the
other six months? Go South where
you can work out doors every month
in the year, and where you are pro-
ducing something the year rouud.
If you are stock raiser you know
your stock are now seating their
heads off" and, besides, have to be
protected from the rigors of winter
by expensive shelter. Cost of pro-
duction determines the place Of
production, and Alabama and Flor
ida can produce beef and sheep
cheaper than any other state, and
must become the center of great
industry already begun. Economi-
cal stock feeding requires the COM
bination of both fesh-forming and
fat-forming foods in certain pro-
portions Alabama and Florida
contain millions Of acres of un-
utilized cheap range, and these
lands when cultivated produce in
abundance the velvet bean and cas-
sava bean, the first flesh pro-
Queer, and the latter a fat producer,
and they are the cheapest and best
fattening materials known to the
world. If you are interested and
desire further information on the
subject, address

Colonel Ingersoll was living in Peoria,
he was called upon one day by Gen

at the time, and General Logan was
ushered into the library. where, on
table were three volumes of Vol

them I'D one at time, absorbed in his
admiration of their beauties. While
so enga ged Colonel Ingersoll entered

one of the volumes in his hands, this

An Englishman's Experience.

A prominent marine engineer from
London, who was recently sent to Bal
timore to inspect a British steamer,
tells the following story:
1T was in the days of the Shovel en-
gineer,' as the men were called who had
reached the throttle through the stoke
hole, that British steamer was at
Huelva needing attention to machin-
cry. A new and young experimenting
engineer was sent from England to
look over the vessel. Being of the new
school of engineers and with Board
of Trade certificate, his questions were
very technical and CORRESPONDENCE be-
Jogging to the minds of the two en-
gineers who had reached their posi-
lions by a long service in the f1reroom.
In the course Of his inquiry of one of
them he had reverted to the pitch of
the propeller.
Finding his companion, he who had
been drinking in professional wisdom
from the new overlooker said:
SANDY, mon, that new super is
clever fellow. He even asked about
pitch for the propeller!
"What? Pitch for the propeller
said the second. why, Archie, he re-
fused me paint for the engine room"

one years. Mr.. Shaw was born in
Washington County, this State, in 1914.
In 1887 he struck out into the newly
opened wilderness of the far West,
and in the same year was elected a
justice of the peace in Laporte County.
His first court was held under a tree
near what is now the settlement of
Kingsbury. While at Chicago that
year Mr. Shaw was offered forty acres
Of land for his team of oxen. The
offer was refused. To-day those forty
acres are worth many millions of dol
lars.
Mr. Shaw has never used liquor or
tobacco, and Notwithstanding his great
age he reads and writes without the
aid of glasses. He looks twenty years
younger than he is and promises to live
at least ten years longer.

the Company's service. Again, the
young man who came to this country
over thirty years ago, penniless and
friendless, and who, during the first two
years, earned only 5000, working beside
a tank foul with the smell of oil; but
to-day, there is scarcely drop of oil
consumed in this country which has not
been purchased from his stupendous
organization, the Standard Oil Company.
In another walk of life, we see at the
head of a great college, man who
chopped wood to pay his way through
school.
The great captains of industry of to-
day were the poor boys of thirty years
ago. 1t was not wealthy parent nor an
influential friend who started these men
on the road to fortune; they made their
own opportunities they fought their own
battles; they have won.
What Is the secret of their SUGGEST
What is that irresistible force which has
enabled them to overcome all obstacles,
to surpass their fel1ow-men? Every am
bilious young man is searching for this
secret. He believes that honesty, So
briefly, perseverance, and determination
are essentials in the foundation on which
to build successful career, and vet he
realizes that he must possess something
more than these mere prerequisites if he
would achieve conspicuous success.
Those who have studied the lives of
successful men will tell you that they ali
possessed certain force of character
the power to mould the opinions and
direct the actions of others. John D.
Rockefeller has often said that he at
tributes his success largely to his ability
to influence and control the minds of
men. How to acquire that power is told
by Mr.. Edward Box in his Lecture, "Keys
to Success, the most inspiring address to
young men ever heard from an American
platform. Mr.. Box does not preach
theory; he gives good, sound, practical
advice. He tells young men just how
they can develop those qualities indis-
pensable to success, and win both money
and power. Every word is suggestive
and inspiring.
The Publishers of this Lecture, John
D. Morris and Company, 1903 Chestnut
Street, Philadelphia, Pa, are DESTROYS
that every ambitious young man should
possess a copy of "Keys to Success, !"
complete copy of this Address to every
reader who will write for it, mentioning
