FERTILIZERS
SELL LESS
GENERALLY
THIS SEASON THAN LAST
The Farmers are PraCtiCinO
Economy

While the fertilizer season in Ameri-
Gus, as elsewhere in the cotton region
is at the height, it is a fact, accordin-
to statements of local dealers, that
the business is not nearly so large
as last season, and, up to this date,
has been disappointing, rather than
otherwise.
Several causes are attributed for the
decrease in sales, among others the
purpose of the farmers to do with less
fertilizer this year in the general trend
of economy, although the scale Of
prices may have much to do with the
curtailment of sales. This season, It
seems, there are three prices or most
of the manipulated goods; one price
being upon quantities of one to fifteen
j tons; another upon quantities of fif-
teen to fifty tons. with still Slight
reduction upon quantities of fifty tons
or more
While the difference is little more
than one dollar per ton in the three
classifications, it makes material diff
ference with the farmer who purchas-
es from one to ten tons, as compared
with the one who buys fifty tons, and
gets, it for two dollars per ton less
Local agents have no option in the
premises, and base the sales made up i.
on instructions given by their several
manufacturers.

AGE Of Specialists.

There is much of great significance
in the report by local experts that,
side by side with the inability Of
great many men and women to pro-
cure employment, there is the inabil-
ity of employers to get workers to fill
the places they have open. This state
ment reveals clearly that under the
complicated processes of modern in
dustry q. mans willingness to work is
far from qualifying him for work
waiting to be done. The person wish
ing to be sure of employment must
specialize In one or more of the many
classes of work for which there seems
always to be a scarcity Of labor. AS
emphasized in the report referred to,
the person who relies upon his ability
to perform unspecialiZed tasks will
find himself In constant competition
with the three or four like himself
to quest of the one job open for them.
The very best advice that can be CIV
en- a young man or woman today is
this: Learn to do some one thing
better than most other persons can
do it. Specialize and keep up to
date in your speciality. There is no
end Of work to be done in the world
and not nearly enough people who
know how to do it.-Phila Telegraph.

seriously, while in every other ex-

to cultivate knowledge of the best
ways to produce better products.
