give YOUR CHILD
AN ALLOWANCE
Let Him Learn Value Of
Money

This is a plea for an allowance for
every child in every home of whatever
means. The father who can hand only
a penny to his child on pay day
should make the gift regularly and
teach the child to make that penny
mean something in return. The par
ents who give a daughter five cents
each Sunday for the collection plate, a
treat at the confectionery store each
pay day, and on each Saturday a hap
by afternoon at the moving picture
theatre should hand the amount fer
these three regular expenditures 80
the child on a given day in the form
Of an allowance to be accounted for.
The nickel must be saved for
church; but if the child chooses to
spend the balance for a toy or treat
to her companions, then there can be
nc visit to the soda fountain with
Mother and no afternoon at the picture
theatre. Just the moment the child
realizes that money spent impulsively
on something to be regretted later
means the curtailment of a regular
pleasure, she will have had her first
lesson in the inelasticity of fixed in
come, the true money Value.
The regularity of an allowance has
a steadying effect on child's nature.
The boy who is given a nickel for
running an errand or for backing
fathers boots will think that tomorrow
may bring another errand or a con
venient rain may muddy the boots. So
he spends the reward of spasmodic
labor with a reckless hand and waits,
Micawber-like. for something to turn
up.

Many people write me, asking the
pertinent question, "Wil it pay?' Or
will it pay better than other uses %
which the land can be put? Now. there
are so many elements entering into
the question of profit or loss in pecan
growing that we cannot answer in the
affirmative or negative without qualif
cation, but if the same common sense
preliminaries and methods are EN-
ployed that are essential to success in
any industry or occupation, then
do not hesitate to affirm that the pro-
fits from pecan growing will exceed
those obtained from any different use
Of the land

There is one point l want to make
aud emphasize in the initial discussion
Of this subject, viz, the effect of pecan
culture upon the man, upon the farm
snd upon the community.

This reading, investigation and study
as necessary preliminaries to the sue

attractive and fascinating as you pro-

and profit and surely, if imperceptibly

and broader conception of Gods mani

"WHY PECANS"

he bestows upon it and the proper
nourishment he forces the soil to pro-
vide in order to satisfy it's growing and
voracious demands.
The prevention or determination Of
predatory insects and fungus growths,
persistent cultivation, proper fertilizq-
ton, accumulation of humus in the
soil-all of these easily learned and
easily applied means and methods 50
essential in modern, intensive farming
combine not only to make the grove
d thing of beauty and JOY forever,
but also to make it and the inter-cul-
tuTal crops, sources of endless and in
creasing profits.
1t requires no argument to make
clear the fact that any community is
the richer and better by having in ii
man who shows by visible, tangible
results that he is proficient in the
calling he follows and the effect for
good upon others of such examples is
beyond calculation. Every legitimate
means should be employed to bring in
to our section men of Drawn AMI
brains, and nothing will so strongly
tend to keep them here as investors
and producers as the concrete evidence
of the advantages we possess in soil
and climate over other sections of our
great domain.
To this end, as we'll as for individual
and community progress and profit,
would urge the planting and culture Of
pecans by the farmer large and small,
or by The promoter, when he does s.
honestly with proper consideration for
his purchaser.
It will be evident to those who may
have followed me thus far in the dis
cussion of this subject that my pri-
mary object is, and will be, to arouse
interest in the pecan industry to the
extent, at least, of inducing many 10
its possibilities from the
viewpoint of profits to be realized and
permanent increasing values added
each year to every acre thus properly
utilized. Such study and investiga-
ton almost invariably lead to decision
and action; for evidence in favor o.
the industry is abundant and con-

The year OF 1912 was . banner year

and quarter bushels of wheat will go
on the market from Longmont this
year. Including barley and oats the
Longmont territory will receive more
than s3.000,00O for grains alone.
The pea crop has been harvested
and 1t brought over 100000 net to the
farmers of I.ongmont
The season has been very good for
alfalfa and when the last cutting is
in the stack the hay will represent
over million and half dollars.
Sugar beets are ripening well. The
land sown to beets this year will ag-
gregate 1900 acres and for this crop
the farmers VIII receive a million and
three-quarters dollars.
With the growth of the sugar indus
try has grown the practice of feeding
cattle and sheep. During the season
of 1928. 10000 cattle were fed in
and around Longmont: for the coming
season of 1894 there is feed enough
for $4,000 cattle and indications are
that 1t will all be consumed.
