MAE1NG MONEY WORK FOR YOU

Speaking in a reminiscent mood one
day Mr.. John d. Rockefeller told a
group of friends what had first impelled
him to enter the business career that
afterWard became so successful. He said
that he had worked in a store all sum-
meg and at the end of the period was paid
fifty dollars. \ merchant suggested to
him that he lend the money at interest.
which he did At the end Of siy months
he received back the principal, together
with several dollars in interest that II
had earned. Il looked at that interest
With mixed feelings" said Mr.. Rookie
fclcr. 4 knew how hard I had worked
TO earn the principal, but here was
money that rightfully belonged to me
but that had not had to work for. From
that moment determined that in addi-
tiCH to working for money l would make
money work for me-
1t is - lot easier today to earn money
and lot easier to make it work for yOu
than it was when Mr.. Rockefeller was n
boy. What * the use of working all
through the year if yOu have nothing to
show for it Whan another year rolls
around: Wa not determine that with
the opening OF 1929 YOU viii save some
thing. and by placing. it, where it will
earn Interest make what you work for
work for E"G?
The above IS taken from a full-page
advertisement of ''o National City bank
Of Now Work city, which has recently
opened 4 compound interest department,
Iraying 81 per cent, compounded semi
annually.
Note carefully the reference to John
D. Rockefeller and his first $50 invest
mcnt, A. he end of six months he got
his $50 back and several dollars inter
est" We would certainly like to know
where we could invest $50 today and
have it earn several dollars interest
in six months Apparently the National
/ City Bank Compound Interest Depart
ment would pay the munifcent sum of
1871. cents interest on $50 in that length
! of time. And vet the enthusiastic adj
writer says it is lot easier to make
money work for you today than it was
when Mr.. Rockefeller was a boy. If
John D. got several dollars interest
on his first fifty in six months time,
! what do you suppose he gets on his 1922
investments?

NOV. HUMANE THOUGHT

BY A.E.Fredrick,S State Humane Officer
The beautiful days of Indian sum-
mer must not deceive us. They are
the forerunners of winter. And they
generally provide the last good oppor-
tunity of making adequate preparation
for the days when the cold and the
snow are upon us.
The time to provide protection from
the winters cold is now. There are
many who leave their preparations UNI
til the extreme weather is here, such
delay causing much suffering to ami
mails. And often the sudden onrush
of cold weather and snow makes the
building of necessary shelter nearly
impossible. The time to get buildings
in shape for the winter is before win
ter comes.
Investigations around the state show
many barns unfit for the housing of
animals. The same is true of chicken
coops, hog houses, dog kennels, and
other places where animals are kept.
These buildings should be we'll banked
up on the outside with straw or man
ure and lined on the inside with heavy
building paper. The floors should be
kept covered with clean, dry straw a
foot deep. Clean, dry bedding is very
important for all animals A door
which may be closed nights should
open toward the south, and there
should be windows with whole pieces
of glass for light.
Sufficient feed should be on hand
for the winter. Some farmers sell too
much of their hay and good feed and
retain only corn fodder and poor
quality of hay and straw. All animals
lose rapidly in weight on poor feed,
and when thin, rapidly succumb to the
exposure of cold winter.
Adequate shelter and sufficient
amount of feed and water must be
provided for all animals every day.
This is the law, and it will be strictly
enforced this winter. If ANIMALS cam
ont be properly cared for they should
be disposed of They should not be
kept and allowed to starve and freeze.
Of all crimes, neglect of dumb animals
is the one most inexcusable.
