The test OF ones courage is not
the way he advances against a re-
treating or even q fighting foe. 1t
is the way he stands by what seems
TO be failing cause. That calls for
courage. 1t does not take q brave
man to shout with the crowd; it
merely takes a man whose vocal
organs function without effort.
Crowd courage stands from u1-

Such courage is made Of pot-metal.

Hops Promise
Big Fortune for
Polk Growers

Dallas, Aug. 19.--Hop growers in
this section will become rich in the
next few years. Many of the big grow
ers have their crops contracted for
the next three years at 60 cents q
pound, with England as the destina-
tion.
1t would certainly startle eastern
farmers to learn what this means in
dollars and cents to the producers.
1t is considered a fair yield of hops
IL 1000 pounds are secured to the
acre. This means that the hop men
will take down $1,000 for every acre
in the crop. And 1t costs about 10
cents a pound under present condi-
tions to cultivate, pick and dry hops
Take for instance the E. Clemens
Horst company, near Independence.
This concern has 430 acres in produc-
Ing hops. It also has 10 acres of ba-
by hops. This means that the COM
pany this year will receive tor its
hops over 100000. In this immedi-
ate section OF Independence there is
close to 5000 acres in hops. all about

that is now unused. There is no more
profitable form of farming In the
world, and there is apparently no
danger of prohibition lessening the
demand for the product.
