ADVICE TO FARMERS
OF A PRACTICAL KIND

The United States Department of
Agriculture, the State boards and
the experts all over the country are
urging the farmers of America to
cultivate every available acre during
the present year. The war in Eu-
rope assures the sale Of almost ev-
erything that can be raised. Every
article that is exported to feed the
soldiers and the citizens and thu
stock of Europe, means just that
much less for home consumption,
therefore, even with big crops of ev-
erything. the prices will be high.
II 1t is not a good crop year the
farmers will at least raise enough
for home use and will not have to
pay the high prices that will prevail.
Utilize every available acre for
grain. grasses and vegetables. In
many sections farmers are urged to
try a double acreage of potatoes. II
should not be necessary. under prop
er conditions. to import potatoes
into any agricultural county. Put
the hens and the turkeys to work
and give them square deal. Raise
pigs, cattle and horses In as large
numbers as the accommodations of
the farm will Justify and any losses
that any farmer. planter or rancher
nay have sustained last year will
ne more than made good.

GOOD SCHEME FOR ANY PLACE

Following the leadership of Wau-
kon, little town near La Crosse,
many Wisconsin cities are contem-
plating putting on a "pay-up-week."
The movement grew out of the con-
viction that once each year citizens
should make q systematic effort to
put their business affairs in shape.
The Waukon Commercial Club
took an active part in making pay
up week" the success it was. Charles
e. Pye, its Secretary. did the largest
part of the work. 1t was he who
explained to his fellow townsmen
the benefits that would result from
such a movement, and encouraged
all classes to give the idea a trial.
In explaining how the plan worked
out, Mr.. Pye says:
1.-THE settlement week movement
is an effort to get each community
to set time each year in which,
men shall settle one with the other
and get their business bearings, so
as intelligently to carry on the work
of the next year. In the first place
business is so intricate and complex
that one mans business success de-
ponds upon the other fellow. If
pay my bill the other fellow can pay
his, and so an endless chain is set in
motion that finally comes back to
me.
I'm the second place, men go on
year after year doing business in a
haphazard way, not knowing where
they stand. One man, tailor, told
me that he had been doing business
back and forth with dentist for
ten years and that he had no idea
who was the debtor. or how much
In the third place, the last year has
been especially unfortunate in the
number of book accounts. Because
Of these We instituted this week.
"The plan was about as follows:
The Commercial Club put up a
purse of$50 to those who should pay
their accounts. Then in each state.
ment sent out, numbered slip was
placed. The merchants sent out
about eight thousand statements
and as result more than two
thousand accounts were settled. In
addition to that we made an appeal
to the community spirit through
the papers. II all the accounts
owed were paid, prosperity for the
coming year would be assured and
other things of the same tenor were
stated.
"Then we had big window cards:
DO 1t To-day Settle Your Ac-
counts On the payment of an &C
count the merchant gave a ticket
and this entitled the holder to al
chance on the $50. AS a result
more than $4,000 was paid in the
week and probably much more that
we cannot even estimate. I'll La

LARGE CITIES GIVE EXAMPLE
How Self'Seeking Bread Liner
Replaces SeIf.Supporting
Bread. Winner.
ROBT. BURDETTEs ADMoNITIoN

Worse than the brutalizing effect
of the worldwide war upon. coming
generations must be the effect in
this country of our coddlin the
weak and palavering with the wick
ed.
We are putting premium on
beggary and crime, a discount on
thrift, independence and grit. We
are substituting luck for pluck. The
self-supporting bread-winner is
making way for the self-seeking
bread-liner.
What self-respect will be left
in the children of those who are
being taught by the sensational
press and fearful uplifters that they
need no longer depend, as their
father did, on their own exertions
for living, but that bread lines
will give them their food and Bun
die Day" their raiment by day and
, municipal lodging houses their bed
by night.
A season of suffering always
means a lesson of sacrifice. Now
with higher wages and shorter hours
of work than ever before and the
highest returns to the wage Garner
given in any land, bread lines and
free lodging houses and Bundle
Day" have become the vogue.
The movies" have taken the
place of the savings banks among
the pleasure-loving, thoughtless
crowd of improvidents, unrestful,
unhappy, go-lucky, with no thought
of the morrow. To these the bread
line and the soup house and Bun
die day" afford all they need. Why
should they worry?
What kind of a new generation
will spring from the loins of those
who are taught, not the meaning OF
self-sacrifice, self-respect and self
dependence. but that the world owes
them a living? From such We shall
surely breed a generation that will
believe that If the world does not
give them an easy living, they will
have a right to take 1t by force.
Isn't this a good time to cut out
and paste in our hats the sensible
admonition of the late Robert j.
Burdette, in his address at the con-
vention of the American Bankers
Association, in Los Angeles. in 1910,
when he said:
"A little bit of every pay envel-
ope, enough to patch a leak In
the roof, enough to provide for the
"rainy day." enough for the holiday
once in a while, enough for new
book and an evening of the SHOW,
enough for the dreary days of sick
ness.
Enough to pay every bill when
IT is presented. Enough to take up
the note when 1t is due. Enough
to save the man from becoming the
unmitigated nuisance that is always
borrowing quarters and halves,

months or years, but while IL con-
tinues there will be an active de-
mand for everything we produce.
Should the war end this week, the
nations engaged will need all our
surplus products for year at least.
Take our advice, for once. and do
not permit good, tillable land to lie
idle in 1915.
