WINDING YOUR
OWN BUSINESS

If everyone would but mind his
own business and try to straighten
out his own affairs instead of spend
ing time in solving others problems
the world would be better for the
change.
Many peoples energy is spent liv-
ing others lives for them deciding
questions which do not concern them
selves and criticising the way others
do things. This generosity is GER
tainly uncalled for, and this same
expenditure Of energy could be turn
ed to better account solving prob
lens of their own or arranging their
own lives more successfully.
When this living other peoples
lives for them comes to the point of
giving advice without it being ask
ed for, it becomes unwarranted in
reference.
What right has an individual to in
trude ideas and give advice to anoth-
er person when that person does not
wish for it? More harm has been
done in this world by people butt
ing in" in others affairs even when
IL Is done with the best intentions
than in any other one way.
Good or Bad intentions
But, very often, it Is not with the
best intentions that We do interfere
with another although We may fool
ourselves with the thought that 1t Is.
| We are apt to think that our desire
Is a pure one, one that seeks only
to be of help. We see another in
| difficulty and tell ourselves that we
would like to help them out and so
| 20 ahead, either giving advice or
worse still, talking about the matter
to other people, or attempting to
straighten out the trouble with a
third person without even asking the
one who is chiefly concerned for per-
mission to do SO. All the time If We
were only honest enough with our
selves to sift to the bottom the So
called desire to help Of which we
are so proud, we would md that it
was nothing but the old human fra
lily Of tending to other peoples busi-
ness when we ought to be strictly
tending to our own.
This doesn't mean that We shouldn't
help others when they want us to
do SO, There is the whole thing in
nutshell--whon they want us to
do so; but we must remember that
we have no earthly night TO inter

YOUNG ASTOR
Gets FORTUNE
Between Sixty and Seventy Millions
OF Dollars His Share OF
Fathers Estate

New York, Nov. 1.-two young
scions of well known American fam
lilies, both in times past considered
potential heirs to vast fortunes came
into their majority today. But to the
two young men the date, November
Is, 1912" told vastly different story.
To William Vincent Aston, slend-
er, blue eyed, dark haired, the twist
of the calendar meant that he be-
came the absolute master of the es-
tate of his father, John Jacob Aston,
valued at about $65,OO0,000.
To William Averill Hartman, tall,
broad shouldered, son Of Americas
great railroad wizard, e. H. Harri-
man, the day meant nothing more
than he had passed from the period
of boyhood into manhood. For by the
remarkable will of his father con-
tanning scarcely 100 words, the en-
tire Hartman estate, amassed by the
genius of the little giant, was left to
UN wife, MdIy w lltil W NC
hers absolutely and forever.
Both Celebrated the Day
Although they did not exchange fe-
lcitations, both young men ended the
day in much the same manner with
q private celebration in the bosom
of their respective families. At about
the time that young Aston was en-
joying birthday feast with his moth
err and sister, Muriel, at his country
place, Rhineback, young Hartman
was dining with his mother and a
few relatives and friends at the Har-
riman home, No. 1 East Sixty-ninth
street. Hartman came down from
Yale to be with his family on his
natal day. The young man is an
upper classman at Yale, member
of Psi Epsilon and has rowed on both
freshmen and university squads.
AS though to emphasize the feel
ing of responsibility that his inner
itance has brought with it, Vinvent
Astor spent five hours of the day
which transformed him into the
worlds richest youth at his desk in
the Astor estate office in West TWEEN
ty-sixth street.
Stepmother's Gift
Among the birthday gifts he receiv-
ed was box containing twenty-one
red roses, a gift from his step moth
er, Mrs. Madeline Force Aston, and
another bunch of the same number
sent in the name of his baby broth
er. John Jacob Aston, whose coming
into the world was such vivid me-
mento of the Titanic disaster.
"There is nothing for me to say
replied Vincent Aston, when efforts
were made to obtain an interview.
81 intend to carry out the plans so
we'll mapped out by my father"
1t is said that young Astor's re-
cent gifts to charity mount into the
hundreds of thousands of dollars.

"stenography' Not the Only Name by

Shorthand writing is known by other
names than 'stenography." ''Tachygra-

part. of course. comes from the same
root as the latter end of ''stenography"
that Is, from the Greek graphic"
meaning to write. "Tachy" Is derived
from the Greek "tachys." meaning

who has the ability TO take down rap

''Stenography" comes from graphic"
combined with "stenos." which means
marrow" in Greek So a ''stenogra-
pher" IL either narrow writer or she

Not so many years ago we heard a
good deal about photography" as
name for shorthand writing. but the
term seems to have gone out OF use

The latter word means sound" so
that photographer is one who writes

Peanuts Increase Profits In Hog
RAISING,

Dallas, Tex, Oct. 22.-W. B. Star,
assistant agricultural agent of the
Texas and Pacific Railway company,
headquarters at Longview, is guest
at the State Fair. Mr.. Starr is es-
pecially interested in the livestock
exhibits as he is an extensive hog
raiser and operates a large swine
farm near his home city. In discus
sing the care and feeding of his
stock, Mr.. Starr said: Il now have
ready for market, 1872 head of hogs
that will average $50 pounds each"
These hogs were raised on peanuts
and milo maize which find will pro-
duce II pounds of fat to the bush
ell, at rate of a pound, to a pound
and a half day. l believe that l
have doubled my money on my stock,
for the use of peanuts and milo maize
has minimizedf the cost of feeding far
below the cost of corn.
Peanuts are now selling at 70 cents
per bushel on the market, but by
feeding them to the hog the price per
bushel would be s1.00, providing the
hog sells for cents, and even at
6 cents for the hog, your peanuts
as a food, are worth rs cents per
bushel, and besides you are spared
the cost and trouble of harvesting
and marketing the crop which will
amount to at least ten per cent.
Therefore l find it cheaper and more
profitable to let the hogs run at large
on the peanut and milo maize fields,
than to harvest the crops. / once
believed that hogs could not be
raised successfully without corn, but
that theory has been dispelled by ex-
perimenting with peanuts and milo
maize, two crops that abound extern
sively in my section of the country
and are as good fat producers as
corn and the cost per bushel is far
less"

Story Of a Sauerkraut Factory and lts

A simple Illustration of how apparent

story Of sauerkraut factory on

ed out of the cabbages and. as the
vegetables are about 20 per cent water

one-half. This juice was allowed to

collected this Juice and discovered that
It contained much decomposed vegeta.

acid In the juice that seemed worth
recovering, and by concentration and
filtration the acid was obtained and
refined. Today this organic acid forms

skins and In all textile manufacturing.
At first thought It would seem as II
the sauerkraut industry was too
small to be of importance in recover
Ing such an insignificant byproduct.
but there are alone on Long Island up
ward of twenty such factories, and
each one uses some 100000 pounds
of cabbages From each factory there
are recovered annually 10000 gallons OF
Juice. or. In all. 100000 gallons of
waste. Multiply these figures by ten
