Most Profitable Hour For Tiller OF tns
Soil lis When He Sits Down 10
Reason Out Things For Himself.

During the long winter evenings
when you have finished reading tne
daily news about wars and politics,
why would it not be a good plan 10
consider the idea of making an ex-
pertinent station on your farm? iou
doubtless read one or more agrlcui-
tural papers,. the experiment stauoh
bulletins and perhaps get an occa-
sional bulletin from the department
of agriculture. These are 10

discovered by the experlmehters'
They may be of direct worth to YOU
or they may be laid aside with the
Thought that they will have a future
value. Why not supplement such IN
formation with that which Is galneu
at first hand on your W farm? asks
the Kansas Farmer.
Not long since a farmer in southern
Kansas got this idea into his head n
sent for n variety of field corn when
he had not previously tried. As this
corn had peer grown for a good many
years i'm Kansas and bears the name
of the Kansas man who developed the
variety. this farmer had good reason
TO believe that he could he successful
in its cultivation. He planted a small
plat and gave 1t special attention, with
the result that he shucked out lO4
measured bushels on n measured acre.
The corn was so good that he was
able to sell large quantities of 1t for
| seed by advertising it a little. His
| success would not have been perma-
nent. however, but for the fact that
he took pains to gather this corn when
IL was fully matured before 1t a
been injured by cold weather. 1t was
carefully selected and preserved. and
later termination tests showed 1t to
be very high class. With such a guar
| antee as he was then able TO give this
corn he was justified in asking a good
price for 1t, and his patrons who
bought Of him were highly pleased
with the results which they obtained.
This little incident served to give to
this particular farmer and to the corn
he raised a reputation which has had
a large money value, which still n
tinues. The same sort of thing may
be done In other lines. A little atten-
ton given to some special crop or
breed of live stock will show results
Immediately and develop into a repu-
tation which has a money value.

Unnatural Mothers,

1t cannot be too strongly reiterated
that maternal love does not necessarily
include wisdom. 1t is natural" for
every mother to love her children, but
1t does not follow that she knows what
is best for them. The animal mother
does know by instinct, and We, content
to take our pattern of motherhood from
the beasts. have imagined that we
needed nothing more. = We as
sumo that every mother knows how to
care for her children, and, if we only
see her keeping at it necessarily, we
never criticise the method or results.
We have urgent need of the
unnatural mother-the mother who has
added a trained intellect to a warn
heart. And when we have enough of
them the rarest sound on earth will be
that now so pitifully common-the cry
ing of a little child.-Gilman.

Start Cabbage Early.

Growers of early cabbage should not
lose sight of the fact that this crop
must be started early in order to Sc
cure maximum profits. Prices for the
early crop often decline very rapidly,
and the grower who catches the top
notch prices for a few days is more
likely to realize a satisfactory profit
on his crop as a whole. Many of the
most successful growers in the north
make the first sowing the latter part of
January or early in February. Low
temperatures should be maintained to
induce Il heavy, stocky growth.-Na-
tional Stockman and Farmer.

HELPFUL SUGGESTIONS FOR
BRIGHT BUSINESS BRAINS.
Little Hints which May Prove Of Big
Value to the Alert Home
Tradesman.

Make your office match your bust
ness and before long your business will
outgrow your office.
One of the things that every human
being should learn early is that a prom
Use is a promise and not a white lie.
Every man in business should have
n hobby for his leisure hours and sta
BILE the hobby at some distance from
his office.
The man who fixes up his Office with
all the goods in the s~tationer's shop
needs to see to it that his head is also
up to date.
If you make your own mistakes you
learn something. If you make other
peoples mistakes you don't even learn
the lesson they did. 1t is well to re-
member this when giving advice.
If you are only keeping a peanut
stand il Is best to do il a little better
than anybody else. But the wise man
will not keep a peanut stand if he has
to pay too much for the concession.
There are two classes of persons in
this world-people who do what they
VA ~ BCORA0 wv "hdt hh1J
want to. And 1t depends on the kind
of brains you have whether you are in
the one class or the other.
To give every dollar its highest pos
sible working power-this must be
your constant aim.
The best way to get rid of a fellow
who wants to give advice is to give it
to him first.
You're in business to make money,
not to defend ~prejudices.
1t pays to advertise anything that it
pays to sell.
Common sense and cash are a com
bination that has never been defeated.
The things which n hears do lot
count for as much as the things he
tells.
In business, as in life, he gets the
most out Of 1t who gives the most to
it. The dividends are based on the in
vestment.
