BUILDING A BUSINESS
Competition

The uninteiligent competitor is just
as dangerous as We, ourselves, permit him
to be. If we run from him, his influence
will hurt us. But if we stand steadiast
to our policies, if We adhere closely TO
our original plans, be will soon pass from
the range of our activities, gad to be rid
OF poor business venture.
For the pirate IN business cannot hope
to succeed. He can copy the things he
sees; he can initiate the methods he
thinks we employ; but be can find 40
substiaute for the hard-pan experience,
no counterfeit for the judgment and
stamina that can be had only in the stern
school Of Learn to Do by Doing"
Success in business lies not II plans, in
schemes, or in the mechanism of method.
1t lies in the minds that evolved theml
Success lies not in an established trade.
1t lies in the genius that built, managed
and handled and held that trade.
The pirate may steal our arguments
He may adopt our methods He may
pilfer our plane. But he cannot steal the
experience and brains that enabled us to
evolve those arguments-that created
those methods-that invented those
plans The road OF the business buca-
neer is rough and rocky. We need add
no stumbling blocks. We need only
stick busily to our own pathway every
ing neither to right or left, and let unin-
telIigent competition fall by the waYside
and die of its own despair.
But intelligent competihon-the COM
petition of men of sense aud standing
and capital-how shall we deport our
selves toward that? Welcome it. Watch
it. Profit by it. For intelligent com
petition will see opportunities that we
have failed to see; intelligent compe.
tiiion will invest money in expert
mants that we have not dared to try;
intelligent competition will open up
new markets, stir up fresh interest,
create new demand. 1t viii unearth new
possibilities to our astonisned eyes
And by all OF this we profit!

Order

What comfort, what strength, what
economy there is in order-material
order, intellectual order, moral order, .
To know where one is going and what
one wishes-this Is order.
To keep ones word and one's engage
ments-again order.
To have everything ready under once
hand, TO be able to dispose OF all one's
forces. and to have all ones means OF
whatever kind under command-still
order.
To discipline ones habits; ones efforts;
ones wishes; to organize ones life; to
distribute ones time, to take the measure
of one's duties and make ones rights
respected; to employ ones capital and
resources, ones talent and ones chance
proftably;-all this belongs to and is in
Guided in the word order.
Order means light and peace, inward
liberty and free command over oneself;
order is power.

Better Times"

Elder Radabaugh OF the U, B. Church
hit the kew note in his Sunday morning
sermon when he eaid, ''times are better to-
day than ever hefore-the difference in
our living at the time of our foreiathers
and that OF the present Is in the men
aud women and not in the times-what
we need today is Christ-like Christains," =
What is true in the churches is also
true in other vocations Of life, We are
now stepping into new national admin
Notwithstanding that hasn't happen
ed for about Is years-aud some think
that they see in the hazy future the inkey
clouds and hear the distant thunders OF
an approaching political storm that will
retard our progress ard cause "hard
timas'', when as matter OF fact the
whole thing hinges on the confidence,
alertness aud wisdom of our citizenship
uncontrolled, unbiased aud Embossed.
The money trust is weakening-they
are grabbing for straws. Why need we
fear thing when we have the power to
crush and forever destroy it? The mon
ey trust is within the voters power, why
then make "iuss' over nothing when
all rights and privilege are vested in US
as American Citizens. Lets make: better
selves then .better times will remain
''good times" for our good selves
President Wilson is our servant and We
hope be will be a faithful one. There Is
no reason why he should not, for he is
not the man who will betray the peoples
trust. Lets trust him-lets help him, at
least let's do our part--lets carry our load
then ''gool times" will in the course OF
OF cooperation remain.

depending somewhat upon their vigor.
II is now time to form your second
scaffold on the central leader, which
should be from 80" to 36' from the first
scaffold. Train this scaffold the same
as the first scaffold was trained the
year before, cut off the central leader
In proportion. The fourth year this
general scheme should be followed out
again, but the years growth should be
cut back very little, If any, for We will
now have our tree pretty well shaped
and heavy, continued pruning will only
delay fruiting. From this year on an
other scaffold can be formed on the
central leader, or limbs can be allowed
to come out along it at random 1t
should be kept pruned back, however,
t. keep the tree down and to throw
the growth into the lower limbs. Yon
can thus see that by cutting back
heavy the first three years we have
been building a stocky, strong, we'll
arranged tree, to bear many future
crops. The limbs will not get bent
down out of shape or broken off by the
first big crop. From this year on,
however, the pruning should consist
Of merely taking out cross limbs, par
allel limbs, opening up somewhat for
air and sunshine, and balancing up the
tree. No more heavy pruning is neces-
sary. It ought not to be necessary to
take out large limbs, as only the neces.
sary limbs have been left on the tree

let in the air and sunlight, in order
to color up the fruit, and should be
pruned quite heavily the first three or
four years also, then let them come
into bearing.
Time To Prune.
In general, trees should be pruned in
late winter or early spring, just before
growth starts, as the cut surfaces are
then not subjected to the cold, dry
winds Of winter, but heal quickly as
the sap starts and growth commences.
Always cut off limb close up to
the branch from which it springs;
never leave stubs, as they will never
heal over
The characteristic growth habit
of tree must be considered in prun-
ing, as some are naturally upright
growers and ought to be trained out
ward by cutting to an outside bud or
branch. Others are spreading or strag.
Cling growers, and this habit can be
corrected somewhat by pruning to an
inside bud or branch.
Wherever limbs are removed of over
two inches in diameter the wound
should be painted White lead and oil,
plus little lampblack, makes very
good paint, but any thick, heavy paint
will do, In all of our pruning We should
have an IDEAL tree in mind to work
towards. Have a reason for every cut.

PUNISHMENT TO
SUIT THE CRIME
Eloping Siivis Couple Located
at Des Moines and Man Is
Arrested.
HELD ON LARCENY CHARGE
Federal Authorities Taking a Hand
to Punish CuIprit Under White
Slave Act.

| w. W. Colt. alias w. H Johnson, OF
| Silvis, has been arrested at Des
I Moines, as a result of his flight from
Silvis, on the night of Nov. 4, with
the wife and most of the other per
sonal property of William Reichaert
The charge on which he is being held
is larceny, based on the disappear
ance of Mr.. Reichaert's belongings
other than his wife, but according
TO information received here the fed
eral authorities have decided to take
hand in the case, and that they will
prosecute Colt under the Mann act
against white slavery, which under
recent decisions, has been stretched
to cover a number of offenses which
the sponsor of the act probably did
not imagine would be reached by it.
ARE RAILWAY ENGINEERS.
Cott and Reichaert are both railway
engineers, with headquarters at Sill
Wis. and the two men were friends on
terms of such intimacy that Colts be-
trayal of Reichaert's confidence APP
pears particularly heinous. In any
event. Reichaert had no suspicion of
the state of affairs until he returned
from his run on the night of Nov. f,
and found that his wife, as well as
most of the furniture had disappeared.
An investigation soon. disclosed that
Colt and Mrs. Reichaert had boarded
train together. and the wrOnged
husband also learned that the couples
fight was the elimination of an in
trigue, which had been suspected for
some time by others.
TRACED TO DIS MONIES.
The couple were traced to Des
Moines, and the man was arrested on
warrant sworn out Tuesday by
Reichaert, charging him with larceny.
1t is understood, as stated, that while
Colt will be held on this charge, it
is likely that he will be prosecuted
in the federal court under the white
slave act. instead of being brought
here TO answer TO the charge of steal
ing Reichaert's furniture
