How the Failure OF Jay Cooke g. Co.
Resulted In George r. Bakers
Becoming One OF Americas
Leading Flnaneiers.

This is the story Of an error OF heart
that made a bank cashier OF yesterday
a nationally famous banker OF today
The anecdote was told me by Charles
ID. Bridgeman, who was for many
years one OF the leading men in the
Insurance business In the United
States
You know he said. that the First
National bank OF New York city was
not only the first bank In that city to
take out national charter, but II was
he first to do 40 In the United States.
II was organized by John Thompson.
whose name has passed into history as
the originator Of the national banking
system After Mr. Thompson became
somewhat incapacitated by age. the
presidency OF this institution passed
TO bis son Al that time II was one
OF the more important of the fiscal
agents OF the United States. Don't
you remember that when John Sherman
was secretary OF the treasury, they
used to call the bank building Fort
Sherman?
We'll, the treasury department at
Washington was accustomed. through
the First National. to secure sterling
exchange upon London. with which to
pay installments of interest on gov.

he happened to meet on Wall street a

Where are you going?' asked this
clerk

"'Now, why don't you let our house

WEARING OUT
FARM QUICKLY
Rich SOIL Rendered Sterile
Through Continuous Bad Crop
ping and Bad Management
OF Fertility.
my ARTHUR s. RrLL)


"Our inexhaustibly rich soil" and
many similar expressions to indicate
that the land would never become less
productive were quite common a dec
ade ago. But you seldom hear such
words now; they are passing away
with many other thoughtless concelts.
But whoever heard of man taking
a piece Of virgin soil and literally
wearing II out In his own lifetime?
A most impressive illustration of
this very thing recently came under
the writer's personal observation. a
few miles from Carbondale. In south.
ern Illinois.
A man now well along In his nine
ties is living upon a 120-acre farm
which he secured from the govern.
ment about sixty years ago at $i.25 an
acre. The place has never been trans,
ferred TO another person.
II was good ground and used to
produce 35 bushels of wheat per acre,
but has been farmed so constantly to
corn and wheat without any intelll.
gent rotation or provision to return
the plant food taken of in the crops
that now the produce of the land bare
ly enables the occupants to exist.
The last wheat crop was two bush
els per acre Probably less than ten
bushels Of corn per acre were raised
there this year. The land can be
counted on for little II any more than
"a uuarfpr of an aVeraQa cron Coma
Of this land must lie idle every year
to rest up" for the next crop-as the
writer saw.
A nearby farmer has 40 bushels OF
corn per acre and may have above 30
bushels per acre this year. Land is a
good price in that locality.
For any real farming that contem-

ly ruined in the same time, though
perhaps not many by the so-called
farming Of one person.
The owner can never build up"
such land. The utmost ho can do is
to live. He has not even a dollar per
acre to invest in improvement. Money
for such wise Investment must come
from outside the farm.
II takes a little longer TO ruin the
richer land OF central Illinois, but II
can be done Just as certainly, as is
shown by the 30 years OF continuous
corn growing on one OF the university
plots at Urbana.
Now every intelligent farmer is be
ginning to see that without some
proper care and repair his soil will
not maintain Itself forever, any more
than would his buildings.
Nothing more significant to Ameri-
can agriculture has ever been uttered
than the two sides of the same prop
osltion perslstently taught by DR..
Cyril G.. Hopkins. the University OF
Illinois soil expert, as follows:
ITO permanently maintain profit
able systems OF agriculture is our
most important material problem. not
only in Illinois but I'm the United
States.
"lf we shall succeed In Illinois IN
discovering and adopting into general
agricultural practice systems OF farm
ing that will restore our soils to their
virgin fertility and permanently main.
tain a high productive capacity for
these Illinois lands. II will be the first
time for this to be accomplished any
where in the world over such an
area"
This is getting down TO bedrock IN
agriculture. The most far-sighted and
unselfish farmers are Just beginning
to comprehend the literal meaning OF
these facts and the advisahility Of act.
Ing upon them before II is too late.

the matter to the attention of Minister
Adams. but those who knew Mr.. Ad.
ans best were convinced that II a
word we're said to him about It, the
project would be killed. Then some
one suggested Henry s. Sanford.
"Mr. Sanford. who was one OF the

came he was told that Mr.. So-and-So,

the campaign would be heavy, he did
not see how he could be justified in

said Mr.. Sanford. He is one OF the
strongest friends of the union In Great
