motive. The engineers feel a great
personal pride in the appearance of
their locomotives and many of them
have been beautifully decorated in
which the Company has co.operat-
ed with the men. As result Of
the attractive appearance OF South

attracted wide spread attention and
much favorable comment. Under
the new arrangement each engineer
who has run an individual IOcomo-
tive for stated number of miles,
rated according to the class of the
engine, wi. hout going into the shop
for general overhauling, will have
his name placed on the cab panel.
The arrangement was effective July

two years by engineers running in
dividual locomotives will be applied.

Save the Manure.

-a ~ ~.
Long before anything was known
of plant foods, as we now know
them, stable manure was known as
2 valuable means cf increasing crop
yields. III some respects it Is un-
fortunate that our knowledge Of
plant foods and their general COM
mcruiaI sale have resulted in the
habit Of Judging the valae Of stable
manure by the plant foods it con-
tains. 1t has by far greater value
than the plant foods it contains in
dicate and if this other value were
fully understood and truly appre-
ciated more attention would be Civ
en- to it. Unless a soil is made a
suitable place for bacteria to live,
it will not be q fertile soil, and
nothing else seems to suit the
friendly and helpful bacteria to
live and thrive and work for the
farmer quite SO well as a well-drain-
ed soil well supplied with stable
manure. Men like Carnegie and
Rockefeller did not accumulate
their large fortunes from their own
efforts alone. They get others to
work for them. 1t is the same way
throughout all human endeavor; the
man who can bring most OF the re-
sources Of nature 10 work for him
succeeds b"st. Why should we
not do more to encourage friendly
soil bacteria to work fer US by Civ
ing them the Kind Of food and
home they like best: They are onr
greatest aid in soil building and it
seems we might at least give them
some encouragement in their eff
forts in our behalf Nothing also
will give them the encouragement
they need like a good application
Of stable manure.
If those who use cottonseed meal
for feeding could once be made to
fully and truly realize that the ma
nure-solid and liquid-contains
around 80 per cent of the plant
foods originally in the meal and
that this amounts to value Of be-
tween $s5 and $50 ton at the
usual prices for fertilizers, they
would surely take mere trouble to
save this manure. Why is it th 1T
many cattlemen will scheme and
dicke-and some of them even in
tdulge in Misrepresentation
make dollar or two in the sale or
purchase of cow and then treat 80
carelessly the stable manure of
much greater value that is made
by this same cow
This is the season when the sta,
BILE manure is being made and it
should be the season when it is
saved, even though it is not the
season when it is used. If we grew
more cover crops there would al
ways be good place for the stable
| manure as made.-Progressive Far

Between
Ourselves

Many years ago-long before
the new store was even thought
of--we set apart the Friday pre-
yious to Easter as "CHILDREN'S
DAY"
"CHILDRHN'S DAY" like all
new institutions. had a very mod
est beginning. The idea grew,
by our plans became more and
more ambitious. Today Chill
DREN'S DAY" Is regarded as one
of THE days of the year. But
hold This sort of stuff smacks
TOO much of advertislng-it has
no place in here. This little five
inch column is dedicated to pretty
nearly everything else BUT ad-
Now, to get back 10 the kid
diesl What a differenc between
the way the youngsters are
catered to today and that of. say,
twenty-five years ago. In those
days they used to go upon the
seen and.not heard"-and the less
they were seen the better. Today,
however, Johnnie and Susie are
factors to be reekoned with.
Their wishes are listened to and
they have a voice-frequently q
deciding voice - in the home
Does the freedom of Young
America today make for n better
or worse race? Does the latitude
which we allow our young folks
tend to make selfish, arrogant
men and women of tomorrow?
1t is a great problem, but the
future must take care of itself.
