COUNTY CORN sH0M.
Demonstrator Perkins Has Assurance
Of Over One Hundred individual
Exhibits Of Seed Corn.

sHf
The First Annual Henderson Coun-
ty Corn show will be held at the court
house in Hendersonville sometime
during the next few weeks.
Over one hundred individual exhib-
its are already assured. Farm Demon

given under the auspices Of the Great
er H~endersonville club.
Hot coffee and good sandwiches
will be served the farmers,-who, on
that day, will be the guests of the
Greater Hendersonville club and of the
city.
The purpose of the n show is
demonstrate the selection of seed corn
something which is virtually import
ant to the farmer and to the commun-
ity. For no matter how good the soil,
how deep the blowing. how carefully
the crop is tended, without good seed
the crop must be a total or at best a
partial failure.
E. S. Millsaps. of Statesvil1e, and
other Agricultural experts will be
present. a speaker who knows his
subject will deliver a lecture on the
Importance of seed selection and what
il has done in the way of inegeasd
production and the figures he VIII pre-.
sent are really staortling. In addition
to this the farmers will be actually
shown how to select good seed corn
and will be shown the difference be-
tween good and bad seed.
Farm Demonstrator Perkins, for
v bom the the Greater Hendersonvillc
club is responsible, is enthusiasts
over the possibilities of the show and
as enthusiasm is catching worse than
the measles, he is spreading that en-
thusiasm broadcast. He says he IS
meeting with every encouragement in
his efforts and advises getting many
gallons of good coffee and several
baskets of sandwiches ready for the
farmers who will be in attendance at
the show.

Some Of the happiest, most en-
couraging paragraphs from Miss
Tarbell's Introductory article are
quoted below:
81 know factory after factory
between the Atlantic and Missis-
sippi where ventilation. sanitation,
adaptation of tools and machinery
70 the workers are more scientific
ally managed than in the majority
of schools, offices, churches, and

"Twenty years, even ten years
ago. when ! talked Of the loss Of
life and limb to a railroad mana
ger, steel or iron master, manu-
facturer, he would tell me it was
inevitable in his business 1t was
part of the price Of prosperity.
Today | find that in many estab-
Iishments killing or manning man
is regarded as proof of ineffi-
ciency."
81 have had as ard-hearted
shop superintendents as ! ever saw
tell me that if a man s food is poor,
his habits irregular, his wife or
child sick and neglected, that man
is a poor and unsafe workman. To
correct the cause of his undoing as
far as possible, by giving him de-
cent home, by teaching his wife to
cook, sending a nurse to his baby
this is being recognized as truly an
| industrial function as putting
guards on belts and wheels
"'The stability Of this new move
ment lies in the fact that manage
ment is summoning to its aid great
forces which it has hitherto believed
to have little or no part in it's func-
ton. It has summoned science, and
growing numbers Of American bus
mess managers are holding that
there is no task which men per-
form which should not be studied
scientifically in order to find the
best way, which is always the cas-
lest and quickest way, OF perform
ance. y
"Nothing can stop these new
ideals of Industry. Not only are
the human heart and human intelll-
oence with them, but human com
netition is forcing them, forcing
tban, moro rapidly and more COM
pletely than agitation or legislation
has ever dreamed. 10 those
who fear change these new ways or
business may seem revolutionary;
To the writer they seem natufa,
and inevitable, nothing less ana
nothing more.

Aids In Buy-A-Bale-
Of-Cotton Movement

A tremendous boost has been
given the buy-a-b bale -of-cotton move
ment through the decision of the
DUPONT Powder Company to pur-
chase $45O,OO0 worth Of cotton
Announcement that this large
sum of money is to be expended by
the DUPONT Company in a desire to
help move the cotton crop Of this
country, was made at the head
quarters of the company in Will
mington last Friday.
The powder company has bought
outright cotton TO the amount of
1925, 900, and in addition will ac-
cept from its trade in the South
warehouse certificates to total
value of $125,0 for cotton at 10
cents, making a grand total Of
$450,OO0.
This big purchase by the DUPONT
Company is characteristic of it's de-
sire to help in any undertaking to
improve conditions.
The buy-a-bale- f-cotton move
ment is the result of an appeal on
the part of cotton growers for aid
because of the European war.
About two-thirds Of the cotton
grown in this country is exported,
and the present war has cut off the
demand. In an effort to help move
the cotton crop, firms and individ-
uals throughout the country are
buying cotton.
According to figures from the U.
S. Department of Agriculture the
cotton crop will approximate 10, 300
900 bales of 800 pounds each, the
second largest crop recorded in
our history.

AMONG THE NEW
MAGAZINES
Good News In The World Of
Industry

The October number of the
American Magazine contains an ar
ticIe by Ida M. Tarbell, introduc-
tory to a series to begin in the
November number on "The Golden
Rule in Business. Miss Tarbell
has. for years, been a close observer
Of American industry. In the pre-
paration Of her articles she has OBJ
served the working Of manufacture
ing firms, and closely studied the
situation. Although she aimed, in
all This work, to focus her attention
on a single point-the effect OF
privilege on industry and on the
public in general-she found it con-
tinually veering to the relations be-
tween the men at the head of the
plants visited and their employees.
1.-The Creed Of Industry, as | had
learned it, mainly from the lips of
employers. Miss Tarbell says,
was hard, cynical, not to say in
human.
| run my business to suit my
self.
If man doesn't like the way
We do things he can get out.
The more money workman
earns, the more he spends in drink.
Humanity has nothing do do
with business.
The wider my observation of the
working life of The country extend
ed, however, the more ! was mn
pressed that this was a passing
creed.'
Miss Tarbell about three years
ago entered upon a series OF visits
and observations to corroborate her
impression. In this time she visit
ed scores of industrial centers. She
describes her experience thus: -
have talked with hundreds OF men
and women; presidents and dlrec-
tors Of companies; superlnten-
dents; foremen; consulting engl-
neers; safety and sanitary experts
Industrial nurses; men at the FUR
mace, the loom or lathe; girls at the
Spinning-frame, the canning table,
the counter. TO see at their work
all the men and women in a plant,
from those with shovel or scrub
bing- brush, to those in the head Of
fees; to look at their conditions, to
see them in their homes, to learn
from their lips what they thought
about it all,-this has been my
method. The observations | have
made have turned my first impress
sion to deep conviction. A silent
revolution is going on in American
industry. Its creed is direct de-
NAL of the old one. It's slogan is
Humanity is the Foundation OF
Sound Business. :"

Detroit Votes on Radical Changes.

Detroit Votes on Radical Changes.
DETROIT, Mich, Feb. 10.-After
one OF the most spirited campaigns
in the history OF local politics, voters
Of Detroit went to the polls today to
ratify Or reject the proposed new
city charter, written last fall by a
board of charter commissioners.
EARLY Indications were that voting
would be heavy. The proposed char.
ter is considered more or less OF a
compromise between the demands OF
those who wanted az few changes as
possible in the old document, but it
leans to the radical rather than the
conservative side.
1t provides for separation OF city
from state and national elections; the
election of city officials every four
years on non-phrtisan ballot with a
preferential feature, permitting clti-
zens to vote for second and third
choices; concentration of power in
the hands Of the mayor. who, like
other city officials, is made subject to
the recall; tine Initiative and referen-
dun; municipal ownership Of the gas
plant and the extension OF the public
lighting service to private consumers
and control OF telephone rates and
service by the common council. City
ownership OF the street car lines was
authorized at a special election last
April, but new charter amendment
