That is the way United States Sena.

1t was not by eating butter but by
going without it that he got the start.

THRIFT AS A
STABILIZER OF BUSINESS.
The Foundation Upon Which All
Successful Enterprises Are
Based.

In a recent address in New York
City Mr.. William Mather Lewis con-
:rasted thrift with mere saving.
Thrift, he said, is a much broader mat
.er than mere saving. Thrift is care
and prudence in the management of
1ne's affairs; the foundation upon
which every successful and enduring
business enterprise is based.
The man who boards his money, who
leprives himself of the decencies OF
life in order to accumulate, is going
counter to the Declaration Of indie
pcndence-He is narrowing his life,
restricting his liberty, and shutting
himself away from true happiness.
He who spends his money wisely,
who aportions his dollars intelligently
against the needs of today and the
needs of tomorrow, who, in other
words, is practicing thrift, is investing
in Liberty and happiness, is securing
life more abundantly.
The miser lays aside surplus by
refusing to buy those things which
necessity and comfort and the good of
his community require. The thrifty
man buys literally and intelligently
he makes very sure that the shoes for
which he exchanges the product OF
many hours labor contain good work
manship and good material; that the
meat he carries home at night goes
on the table, not in the garbage can
He insists that the dollar he hands
the employee be earned by an hour OF
honest labor. A thrifty man is careful
of other things than money. Such {
one does not arrive at the station hal
an hour before train time. If his time
is worth three dollars an hour he does
not use it up on work that three-dol
lar-a-day assistant could do. Thrift
| consists in making the most of one:
| resources, tangible and intangible
making the most of them for the bene
| fit of self and of ones fellows.
AS a means of thrift, Mr.. Lewis ad
vocated the formation of War Saving!
Societies and investment in War Say
ings Stamps.

HOW THE FAMILY INCOME
SHOULD BE DISTRIBUTED
Every Family Should Have Own Per
sonal Household Budget

The household is corporation
with certain definite obligations
and more or less certain income,
and it should, therefore, have a
definite budget.
No general budget can be so framed
as to fit the needs of every family.
Families differ, even when identical in
size, number, sex and general situa-
ton, but no family can thrive and
progress without sound and sane Fl.
nanc1ng, without arrangement of rea-
sonable financial margin, without reg
ular saving and investments, such as
are offered by Thrift and War Savings
Stamps; and only intelligent adher-
ence to an intelligent budget can be
trusted, under ordinary circumstances,
to bring about the desired results.
Methods of appropriation, however,
differ; method which proves feasible
in given family would be worse than
useless in another; but certain car.
dinal principles may be safely laid
down.
The amount of possible savings
should be set apart definitely and
rigidly adhered to. Other allowances
may be variable or they may be held
within hard and fast limits. One plan
after another may be tried, if liked
until the best one suited is found.
All things considered the most easily
efficient budget usually is that which
allows a certain share of the income
for each budget head listed. holds
rigidly within the items of appropria
ton, and wisely applies any balance
or surplus to the savings or recreation
account.

The Need for Better Farming System

The most real and vital problem be-
fore farmers Just at this time is to
work out a safe and sane system of
farming; one that will include crops
to enrich instead of wear out our land;
one that will include plenty of good
livestock to consume the surplus pro-
ducts and the leguminous crops that
must be grown to enrich the land and
to make manure to still further en-
rich the land-a system of farming
that will grow the necessary corn,
oats, wheat, rye, sugar cane, vegeta-
bles, fruits, of all kinds, hogs, mules,
horses, cattle, sheep and other live
stock for home use and to sell at a
profitable price.
The growing of cotton impoverishes
the soil, and the attempt to keep up
the fertility of the soil by the use OF
commercial fertilizer must give way
to a new system of farming. In this
new system of farming, we will prac-
. tice a rotation of crops including
leguminous crops, such as cowpeas,
soy beans, peanuts and lespedeza, artl
the crops grown will be largely fed
to good livestock, the manure careful
ly saved and applied to the soil, and
the necessary commercial fertilizer
judiciously applied.
The too exclusive culture of cotton
has exhausted the humus or the life
giving principle in our soils; the
washing and teaching of our clean
cotton fields have gone on to such an
extent that millions of acres of the
best land will not yield profitable
crops of cotton, grain or grasses. The
too exclusive culture of cotton estab-
fishes the credit system. AS long as
we raised corn, oats, wheat, rice, su-
gar cane, potatoes, fruits and vegeta-
bles, had good pastures and hay mead
ows, raised pletny of poultry, hogs,
sheep, goats, mules, horses, cattle, and
other livestock, there was no necessi-
ty for the credit system.

OF INTEREST TO FARMERS.
Edited by T. M. Cathcart
Fruit Profits Lie in Pruning Shears

This is the season for pruning.
Most of the profits in fruit trees are
in the pruning tools and unless man
treats his orchard we'll in winter it
will not treat him well the following
summer. Orchards should be gone
over this winter, before the buds be-
gin to swell in spring, and thereby
pruned Systematic and careful prun-
ing every year greatly prolongs the
life and increases the value of the
tree.
In pruning, begin by removing all
dead and undesirable wood or branch
es. Thin out the remaining branches
so that the sun can enter freely and
shorten back the branches that have
tendency to grow too long.
A healthy tree usually sets more
fruit than it'can support. One of the
best ways to thin this is by pruning
in winter. Generally the breaking of
branches with fruit during the bearing
season is due to improper pruning
This is especially true of peaches.
Prune carefully. Cutting off few
limbs with an axe is not pruning, but
tree butchery. Leave the axe at the
house. Remove large limbs with saw,
cutting smoothly close to the trunk.
Then paint the wound with white
lead paint to prevent decay. Small
limbs are easily removed with hand
shears
Never wait until late spring to
prune. At that time other work is
pressing and the orchard is likely to
be neglected. Now is the best time of
year for this work.
See your County agent about help
ing you with your orchard, also about
ordering trees to take the place of
the dead or non-proouctiveones.
Now is the Time to Spray for Scale
Sprays that will kill San Jose Scale
when applied at the time the trees
are in foliage will kill the trees. Lime
sulphur wash can be safely applied
when the trees are leafless and dor
mant. If applied now or any other
time before the buds begin to swell
next spring it will control the San
Jose Scale and it is not possible to in
jure the tree with it.
Lime sulphur is not only good
scale killer but is effective against
some diseases, it is fine cleanser of
the bark and is also useful against
the peach tree borer. The best way
to buy lime sulphur solution is to get
quotations from the factory and then
purchase direct or buy through your
merchant provided the price is right.
1t is diluted by adding nine gallons
of cold water to every gallon of lime
sulphur wash used.
A good pump is necessary to apply
the spray as it should be. Get your
neighbor to go in with you and pur-
chase a good spray pump (barrel
pump. 1t will last a long time if
taken care of, and will pay for itself
the first year
An Important Implement
One of the most important farm
implements is sadly neglected on many
farms in this county. 1t can be bought
for five cents or less. Yet an intelli-
gent use of it can save farmer hun
dreds of dollars. Use of it will in
