Photographic Memory.

Persons who buy phonograph rec
ords probably have noticed that most
of the dealers possess the faculty Of
remembering the numbers and do not
have to refer to the catalogues when
record is asked for by the title and
not by the number. It's all n matter of
practice, according to a Chamber
street dealer who said:
"It's all in days work. You see,
remembering the numbers Of records is
lust about the same us remembering
telephone aumbers. Some are good at
it and some are bad, but the average
dealer in records usually has the num-
hers of the records at his finger tips"

LOST MOUNTAIN

The farmers have had remarkably
fine weather for preparing their land
for a crop, and much planting has
been done. Now there is danger of
overcroping, it would be better to
turn back and re-break, harrow good,
add some extra fertilizer, than hasty
preparation, half done if you in
crease your yield $50 lbs. seed cot
ton per acre on six acre crop you
have increased it one bale. Now
haven't you noticed in gathering a
crop where with some extra work you
could have esaily done this. Don't
depend on daily labor if so you may
have to turn out some of your crop.
