THE GOODS AND THE NERVE

Before man can make a brilliant
success in business he must have two
things: the goods and the nerve.
First he must have the goods.
In the business world of today the
first commandment is "Thou shalt
have the goods"
Second, when your goods are right
you must have the nerve to believe in
them and to push them through ad-
vertising You must be ready to back
your goods with the money
You must take some chances. You
must dare to invest your money in ad-
vertising and craftsmanship, so that
the people may be taught what they
should know, and so that you may
)uild the selling machine necessary to
tevelop and hold market
Nerve Backed BY Conviction
Goods and nerve are values that are
closely connected. 1t takes nerve to

The sugar beet price. 1t must be re-
membered that most of our sugar
comes from Cuba, and that the Cuban
crop has always controlled the market
under the tender manipulations of the
sugar trust.
Assuming that all food interests
will agree to prices with the Hoover
Administration, there will be nothing
else to be done But some of the
packers, and possibly the sugar trust
may not agree to the program, and IN
that event they may attempt to fin
higher prices than those to which the
Government has assented. In that
event the Administration has power to
seize private interests. fix prices, and
tell the owners to "keep off the grass.
Or the Administration may forbid any
plant to operate without a license, and
this license will carry with it a fixed
price set by the Government.

neverfailing nerve and advertising ef-
fort
Nerve is only bluff unless it has
conviction back of it; but there is con-
siderable more of conviction without
nerve in the business world than nerve
without conviction.
The man without nerve is the man
without belief in himself or his capa-
city, or confidence in his advisors. A
business man in such condition is in
serious and dangerous situation. He
is the great gambler, not the man
with nerve.
The man who says that great quail
ties of mind and spirit are not used in
business is a floater. The men who
have the millions of today are chiefly
those who had the nerve to put their
money to back their well-advised
judgment and constructive imagina-
ton, throug wise and persistent ad-
vertising.

THE NEW LAWS OF COMMERCE

For a generation we have been hear
ing about "the law of supply and de-
mand." Protective tariff speeches as
well as those advocating tariff for re-
venue only" have rested, and wrest-
led with the problems of competition,
supply and demand, and the devious
ways by which business and prices
have heen expected in the past to lie
vel themselves. Now, all those time
honored doctrines and theories have
been consigned to the scrap heap by
mutual consent. Hence the Food
Administration and Mr.. Hoover.
The old ways cease to work. and the
public knows to its sorrow that food
spectators pivot the market and
fleece the dear people" And so, in
the face of war, we have abandoned
"trust busting" and Uncle Sam has
started in to apply entirely new laws
to the production, sale and consump-
tion of food. 1t is interesting to know
Just what is contemplated by this rad
ical reversal of all our customs and po-
licies. 1t has been defined within the
past few days in two or three instan-
ceS.
The Hoover Administration has tack
led the problems of wheat, meats, su-
gar, and many other necessities. For
the purpose of this story the issue is
made clear by following The processes
adopted with reference to the packing
houses and sugar producers.
Mr.. Hoover net the heads Of the
great packing interests in Chicago.
He was fortified with all kinds of in
formation covering the industry, and
various authorities and officials OF
the Government accompanied him,
and "set in at big "pow-pow." The
purpose of the gathering was to de-
termine, if possible, minimum prices
for food products. The packers furn-
ished satisfactory evidence that the
have the patriotic spirit, and are will
ing to fix prices that the government
considers fair and equitable. There
fore the price-fixing is likely to be
eft entirely in the hands of the pack
ers. Mr.. Hoover issued statement
saying that there was no intent on the
part of the.Government to fix prices
within this industry.
HOW THE FOOD CONTROL is
AFFECTED
Keeping the tentative agreement af-
fectrg prices on meat in mind, let us
turn to the sugar problems. The beet
sugar producers came to Washington

Wheat Acreage Less.
Wheat acreage fell off about 49,

ures indicate.
Barley, rye and flax acreage are
about the same, but yields show de-
creases.

age, fall short so bushels to the acre
compared with last year. This de-
crease in yield is chargeable to the
shortage in the old and heretofore uni

ties, and in the Red River valley belt.
Yields in northern counties, notably
