HOME CIRCLE COLUMN.
DON'T FEAR TO PRAISE

How is it that words of praise are so
grudingly spoken, and so few persons
are found in the retail trade of that de-
sirable commodity?
Fault-finders are everywhere. You
run against them at each street corner.
They are as plentiful as thorns on a
roSe-bush; and quite as diSagreeable to
come in contact with, Blood-lettng
and leaving a scar seems to be their
chief vocation in life; and their great
est JOY is found in pointing out the
typographical error in the paper, or in
directing the attention of the audience
to the false note in the song, or the UNI
grammatical expression in the speak
er's language
An editor was warmly prasng a con
tributor for an article written for the
people, when a mutual friend standing
close by, said:
"Be careful what you say. You may
make him vain"
"There is no fear of that" replied
the other; "its the true way to get the
best from him"
There is deal of sound philosophy
in the remark. An ounce of praise will
produce better results than a pound of
blame. Many a boy who would have
become a brilliant success in life had
word of praise been given at the prop
er time, has become utterly discour-
aged and eventually quite careless in
the performance of his duties simply
because his best efforts have been adj
ycrSely criticized.

During January the question of pur-
chasing clover seed and planning the
acreage to be seeded next spring will
be under consideration. Clover seed is
high priced and scarce, and good sam
pies will command prices that many
farmers will be loathe to pay. The
United States department Of agricul-
ture, however, urges the seeding of as
large an acreage as possible. The best
information o. tainable shows that the
foreign market is quite as bare of
clover seed as is our own. The French
and Italian supplies are sold out, and
there appears to be no surplus in Ger
many or in Russia This means that
clover seed will be high for at least two
years to come if not more, and those
farmers who seeded last spring or who
seed in 1920 will have chance to sell
their clover seed crop at good figure.
This is time to look ahead, and for
American farmers to get the benefit Of
the high prices, before Europe has
been able to get back to normal pro-
duction and the prices fall.

WHERE THERE is A WILL
THERE is A WAY

Henry Bond was about ten years
old when his father died. His mother
found it difficult to provide for the
support of large family, thus left en-
tirely in her care, BY good manage
meut however, she contriyed to do SO,
and also to send Henry, the oldest, to
school, and to supply him, for the most
part, with such books as he needed.
At one time, however, Henry wanted
grammar, in order to join class in
that study, and his mother could not
furnish him with the money to buy it.
He was very much troubled about it,
and went to bed with heavy heart,
thinking what could be done
On waking in the morning he found
that deep snow had fallen, and the
cold wind was blowing furiously. "Ah,"
said he, ut is an ill wind that blows
nobody good"
He rose, ran to the house of neigh
Dor, and offered his service to clear a
path around his premises. The offer
was accepted. Having completed this
work, and received his pay, he went to
another place for the same purpose,
and then to another, until he had
earned enough to buy grammar.
When school commenced, Henry was

The Successful Farmer
Raises Bigger Crops

and cuts down costs by investment in
labor saving machinery. 4--
Good prices for the farmers crops en-
courage new investment, more production
and greater prosperity.
But the success of agriculture depends
on the growth of railroads-the modern
beasts of burden that haul the crops to
the worlds markets.
The railroads-hke the farms-increaSe
their output and cut down unit costs by
the constant investment of new capital
With fair prices for the work they do,
the railroads are able to attract new capital
for expanding their facilities.
Rates high enough to yield fair return
will insure railroad growth, and prevent
costly traffic congestion, which invariably
results in poorer service at higher cost.
National wealth can increase only as our
railroads grow.
Poor railroad service is dear at any
price. No growing country can long pay
the price OF inadequate transportation
facilities.
