October Am erican Magazine in which
he says:
ON March 20, 1851 Will never

twenty-five years old. Well, on the

streets of Galveston l was standing
on the curb watching the parade,
when an excited voice called my
name and, to my complete amaze
ment, there was Dave Montgomery in
tan-colored overcoat with big
pearl buttons and a plug hat, march
ing behind the band as big as life.
Come on down TO the theatre,
he yelled, and l couldn't get down
there quick enough.
What are you doing here?' he
asked me when l met him later.
I'm with d stock company

Gee whiz.' was his reply. Quit
and go with US. l haven't any part

act together
We'll, | thought it over. When 1
landed that job with the stock com
pany in Galveston l was so sure of
holding it that had nailed my trunk
to the floor of my dressing room.
This is no fairy tale. 1t is an abso-
lutte fact. But Dave told me that
didn't cut any ice He said he
would help pry that trunk loose if |
went with him. He said he had lost
his partner, Will Oden, and needed
me badly. The manager of the show
said he would give me twenty-five
dollars a week if that much ever
came in, and as The show was headed
for New York it looked like a good

Potato Grades Recommended

The present prospect for record
breaking crop of potatoes this sea-
son. the general situation with re-
gard to food supplies, the oVer-taxeu
condition of the transportation Ia
cilities OF the country, and the recent
ruling of the Federal Reserve Board
that member banks are authorized
to make loans against warehouse re-
ceipts for potatoes, properly graded,
packed, stored. and insured, empha-
size the Importance of adopting uni
form grades for this product.
For several years the Bureau OF
Markets of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture has been 1nves-
tigating and demonstrating the prac-
ticability of marketing potatoes by
grade. This work has been conduc-
ted in most of the principal produc-
ing sections of the country and has
consisted of field tests in the grad
ing and packing of potatoes and eX-
periments in the marketing of the
graded as compared with the I'M
graded product. The results show
conclusively that the marketing OF
potatoes by grade is desirable, prac-
ticable, and economical
The Department of Agriculture
and the United States Food Admin
istration jointly recommend and
urge the adoption OF the following
grades, which, in their opinion,w
meet the needs of the Federal Re
serve Board, as well as those of grow
ers, dealers, and consumers:
L. S. Grade No. 1.-Tnis grade
shall consist of sound potatoes of
similar yarietal characteristics,
which are practically free from dirt
or other foreign matter, frost in
Jury. sunburn. second growth, cuts,
scab blight, dry rot, and damage
caused by disease, insects, or me-
chauical means. The minimum dl-
ameter of potatoes of the round va
rieties shall be one and seven
eighths inches, and Of potatoes of
the long varieties one and three
fourths inches. In order TO allow
for variations incident to CONNER
cial grading and handling, five per
centum by weight of any lot may be

7Rules OF Frank Woolworth' S

There is an article about Frank
Woolworth, the famous five and ten
cent store man, in the October
American Magazine. The writer, in
talking of Woodwork, says:
These are his deductions from
forty-tEree years as merchant or
ganiZer and builder of the world
taliest structure:
l. "Of course you will be discour-
aged. But keep on.
2. If you believe in an idea give
it i chance. Some of my first stores
failed because l hadn't studied the
situation thoroughly. l placed my
stores in the wrong part of the town.
There's right place. Find it.
3. Everybody likes to make a
good bargain. Let him. Small
profits on an article will become big
profits if you sell enough of the ar
ticles
4. 4 believe IN doing business by
and with cash. | had been in bust
ness several days before l knew how
to make out a check. Large credit
is temptation to careless buying.
5. supervise details, but don't
allow them to absorbe you. Don't
waste the time of a high-priced or
ganiZer on a clerks job.
S. Il prefer the boy from the farm
to the college man. The college man
won't begin at the bottom and learn
the business.
z. There are plenty of opportu-
mites for young men today. Many
fail because they are not willing to
sacrifice. No one ever got far who
was in bondage to the body. You
can't build business on thoughts
OF having good time"
