Is feasible, pat him on the back and
encourage him, and he will develop a
love for agriculture and become the
pride Of your heart in your declining

first, most of these schemes would
be defeated. Their big advertise
ments telling OF immense divi-

forming the unwary how easily

have caught many suckers during
these prosperous times, and much
money has been taken out Of le-
gitimate channels to line the
pockets of these grafters. Aceu-
mulating money by saving and 4
per cent looks very slow to most
people, and this is where the man
with his get-rich-quick scheme
comes in. 1t is far better to bt
