What is Success ?

A Kansas woman, Mrs. A. j. Stan
ley, of Lincoln, has just been awarded
a prize Of $3.50 by Boston firm for the
best answer to the question, "What
constitutes success?" She wrote:
"He has achieved success who has
lived well, laughed often and loved
much; who has gained the respect of
intelligent men and the love of little
children; who has filled his niche and
accomplished his task; who has left the
world better than he found it, whether
by an improved poppy, a perfect poem
or rescued soul; who has never lacked
appreciation of earths beauty or failed
to express it; who has always looked
for the best in others and given the
best he had whose life was an inspira-
ton, whose memory benediction"

Have a Good Dairy Herd.

No matter how small the dairy herd
of the farm is, the farmer should take
pride in having it a good herd. In
some of our western states the aver
age number Of mich cows on farms Is
only two, three or four. But II these
are all good cows, the returns to the
farmer in a series of years will amount
to good deal. Many that own poor
COWS do not stop to figure out what
they lose from having them. One
thing they lose Of which they never
take an account and that is the profit
on good COW that could be kept in
place of the COW that pays nothing or
worse. Thus the COW that just pays
her way and nothing else is in the
place of COW that might pay $50 per
year or more. That possible profit is
part of the loss. and in ten years it
amounts to 5000.
