Select next Years Seed Now.

Now is the time to select potato
plants to produce next years seed.
In every potato field it is easy
to find hills which yield more mar
ketable tubers than other hills. The
most successful growers select their
seed from the best yielding hills.
Whether or not hill yields we'll or
poorly depends not only upon con-
ditions of soil and climate but also
upon the health and vigor of the
potato plant itself. The growth OF
tuber is dependent upon the proper
formation and distribution of plant
food by the leaves and stalk Plants
which are healthy and vigorous will
carry on these functions and pro-
duce well formed tubers while plant
under the same conditions but which
are puny and affected with disease
will produce only poorly formed tu-
bers
Every grower of potatoes should
look over his field carefully an
mark with small stake most healt
by and vigorous plants. Watch these
plants carefully and when one show
signs of weakness it is best to dis
card II from among the selects.
Just before harvesting dig the Sc
lected hills first and those which
do not live up TO the standard de-
sired should be discarded. Usually
the hills from the selected plants
will be better yielders if a careful
selection has been made.
II all OF our potato growers will
practise both hill selection and plant
selection We will have no@run OUT
strains of potato seed, and much of
the disease OF leaf. stem and tuber
can be eliminated.

The effort to market the cher

WITH TIE TRAVELLERS

the business life OF his customer in
many cases.
1t is one Kaleidoscope to be a channe-
lon or q misunderstanding color with
every shake or breeze of condition in
life. but 1t is another to be a genuine
friend in the face OF the shekel and
Gauden's piece of gold.
1t is a vaster thing to be q friend
than it is I feed an army. 1t is one
glory to cross the Alps. but a greater
glory to cross from business down
into the valley of an interested life.
Distribution of goods may be a hercu-
lean task, and 1t may be q huge pro-
ject to build a fifty nine story sky
scraper, but it is entirely another thing
to build and impart the principles of
real manhood. Reciprocity between
the house, salesman and customer of
the ideal type is the art OF being true
through the years, while the brother
hood of finance is one thing and the
brotherhood of truth is another world
yet to be explored.
1t is one thing to sell a car load of
lemon squeezers, dog muzzles, fish
lines, or dog biscuits, and its still an
other thing to form friendships which
endure through the years. Low aim
develops financial sharks.
1t is one thing to get more orders,
but 1t is another thing to be a man
and a true friend as well. Some day
an order will be sent in for a casket
with your name on the lid and you will
get no commission on the sale, and
friendship may be back Of the deed
some knight OF the grip, ..
I repeat that craftsmanship and
friendship combined is the highest art
Of mankind. Without confidence the
nation is doomed. Without trust,
craftsmanship will read it's own death
warrant. Slow development is the
sure process of God and character.
Plungers me day plunge too deep. That
craftsmanship which has no room for
friendship with a customer is on the
wrong road and has lost the compass
of truth.
Material permanence Of anything is
not alw avs the truth test. Lot dwelt
in the established city of Sodom, while
Abraham dwelt on the plain in a tent.
A dumb show window may be a sales
man with the price marked on the
goods, but the show window can never
be a friend. "

SALESnANSHIP
and FRIENDSHIP
ALBERT GARWoop pETcH SAYS
IT is ONE THING TO GET MORE
ORDERS AND ANOTHER TO BE
a GOOD TRUE FRIEND AS
WELL.

Barney Oldfeld said at the Indian
apolis Speedway automobile races, says
Albert Garwood Detch in The Sample
Case, that brains and gasoline were
some mixture, after Ray Harroun had
gone against the field of over forty
racers, and won the 500-mile race and
the first prize, after he had carried less
weight than other racers and had done
without the second man while others
carried a mechanician.
Brains and gasoline may be some
mixture, but craftsmanship and friend
ship is a greater mixture binding
salesman and customer throughout
life's material creation, purchase and
distribution Of goods.
A few days ago a prominent business
man declared that a good salesman
was one who sells a man what he
does not want. Immediately another
gentleman declared that a good sales
man was one who sold a man what
the ma needed. But to me a good
salesman is one who sells a man what
he needs and moreover introducing
by suggestion and sale, lines that will
enlarge the other mans business
thereby proving to be a friend.
Good craftsmanship and friendship
mixed is not an easy art in the face
of obstinate conditions, complex char
acters, national panics, fluctuation OF
prices, virulence of competition, differ
ence of quality OF goods and limitation
of ones W line of goods.
During a period of twenty-five years
of business competition in athletic
goods-guns, tackle, motors, cutlery,
ammunition, electrical supplies, ETC.
there stands out like the Matterhorn
with rare, grand beauty the character
of Frank Liebhardt, travelling sales
mar for the Saroebel & Wilken Co..,
Of Cincinnati and New York, who for
twenty years was, and still is, a prince
on the road, never over-selling his
customers by persuasion or leading
one on to bankruptcy by selling in
ferior goods.
This salesman was unique, superb,
and constantly mixed his friendship
with his craftsmanship. will never
forget his presence in the city when
the head of the firm, our father, was
dead. Liebhardt had arrived in the
city, not knowing of the illness of the
father, but the calm, deliberate inter-
est manifested and the spirit of the
man was a revelation to US.
1t is one thing to crack jokes, sell
goods, and pay the expense bill at the
hotel for a good dinner, but it is a
greater fusion n amalgamation to
blend craftsmanship with genuine
friendship. 1t is a vicious father who
is looking into the future years to only
see what he can get or squeeze out of
the son, and it is a renegade son who
is planning for the present or the fu-
ture to see what he can gouge out Of
the father.
1t is not good craftsmanship to be
always scheming what one can get
out Of the customer. The color of a
salesman's spirit will eventually color
