ent time is for greater efficiency. Not
simply because it is popular but be-
cause it pays. The men who acquire
the greatest amount of success are
the men who are most efficient in
their chosen line of work.
Corn being m of the most import
ant crops for Codington county at
the present time, it IS very important
that the Boys Corn Contest be looked
at in the proper light. 1t is an old
saying that we learn by doing. We
grant that this is true, and so the
way to learn to grow corn would be
by growing some corn.
To grow an acre of corn success
fully is an art and involves some
science as we'll. l. one can grow
n acre of corn well, one could grow
as many more acres as necessary
equally we'll. This is why the boys
between the ages OF ten and fifteen
are required to grow an acre of corn
and the boys below ten 100 hills each
Do you want your boy to be a
successful farmer in the future? Then
encourage him to enter the contest
and grow the required amount of
corn. No one ever learned all there
is to know about corn on short no
tice. 1t is a study that takes years
to master and the oldest in the bust
ness are constantly learning new
things about this wonderful crop and
plant.
That there is a difference in the
handling Of the corn crop we are all
Willing to admit. Sometimes moth
ing more than a tarbed wire fence
or a public road separates two fields,
one well cultivated and clean and
the other the weeds and corn are
having an equal tussle, with the adj
vantage if any in favor of the weeds.
Why this? Surely the wire fence is

ufactured in January.

January is not supposed to show the high water mark of
production in the automobile world, but nevertheless the first
month of 1914 shows the largest output of any month in the en-
tire history of the Ford Motor company, During the month of
January this year, the Ford Motor company built and shipped
1896 cars. The largest months output previous to this was
June 1913, when the number of ears made and shipped reached
the total of 22049.
Those figures show how the Ford business is growing even
beyond the extraordinary proportion it reached last season. To
achieve such production figures every department and every exc
cutive, in a sense, had to grow too. The Ford plant is constantly
adding new machines and devices, constantly testing new ss-
TENS and methods to diminish the labor, speed up the operations,
to same time, energy and the like. In this way only can pro-
duehon keep pace with business. These time and labor saving 1
systems land some remarkably interesting ones have recently I
been adopted form some of the most fascinating features for I
visitors to inspect. |
