SCHWAB'S TEN RULES
TO KEEP PROSPERITY
Chairman of Bethlehem Steel Enun-
ciates NDecaIOgue Which He
Deems EfticaciOus

We have reached in this country
an amazing degree of general pres
perity, with American business on
the whole no longer facing an uphill
climb, according to Charles M.
Schwab, chairman of the Bethlehem
Steel Corporation. The problem to-
day, as he sees it, is an entirely new
one. 1t is what to 10 to make pros
perity permanent. Of course no one,
he holds, has any patent rights to
continuing business success.
There are a. few fundamental con-
siderations which all of us may find
helpful to keep in mind" said Mr..
Schwab. "The following ten rules
seem to me to hold the key 70 last
ing prosperity:
"Pay labor the highest possible
wages. Prosperity is intimately re-
lated to liberal wage scale.
Treat labor as a business part
ner. Successful industry depends
more on human relations than upon
the organization of money and ma
chimes.
Conduct business in the full light
of day. Public confidence AMI public
suspicion may be separated only by
a door.
Remember that the law of supply
and demand is memorable. It would
also be well to remember that there
is no necessity for producing an
excess.
Live and help live. Even pros
porous industries cannot afford to
have the backward industries too
far behind the procession prosper
ity to be permanent must be equally
distributed.
welcome new ideas. To establish
permanent institutions we must al
ways be prepared for change.
Never be satisfied that what has
been achieved is sufficient. Snug
ness and complacency do not pro-
mote progress.
Operate business on the most eco
nomical basis. Prics-cutting. over
expansian, uneconomical methods OF
distribution are Just as harmful to
business and to the public as price
fixing, monopolies and rebates.
"Look ahead and think ahead. It
is easier to avoid depressions than it
is to cure them.
Smile, be cheerful, and work
upon the basis that the fundamental
purpose of business is to provote the
happiness of human beings"

FARMERS TAN MONEY USED
TO IMPROVE COUNTRY LIFT

Farm taxes have increased nearly
100 per cent in the last Is years,
whereas land values are now approx
imately 20 per cent higher than in
1913, reports the Bureau of Agricul-
tural Economics, United States De-
partment of Agriculture, in an an
alysis of what becomes of farmers
tax money.
Most farmers, the bureau says, do
not pay any direct taxes to the Fed
eral Government, and are little af-
fected by changes in the Federal in
come tax. They pay taxes on their
real estate, and in most cases on per-
sOnal property to the local county or
township treasurer. They pay license
fees on their automobiles, and tax
on each gallon of gasoline they buy,
unless they live in one of the three
States where no such tax is levied.
In some States they pay small poll
tax, and in a few States a small
amount of State income tax is paid
by farmers.
Most of the direct taxes tEaJ far
mer pays, says the report, are based
on his land and buildings and on his
automobile; he undoubtedly pays
other taxes in the price of goods that
he purchases, but their amounts and
kind are matters of. dispute.
The first item of expense in the
average community is the school,
from one-third to one-half of all
public money spent going into
schools. Roads probably account for
about a fourth of the total. The sal
aries and expenses of local and
county officers are a small part of
the total expenditures, and finally
there is the amount that goes to
maintain the State government.
There are several reasons why
both schools and roads cost more
now than they did Is years ago, says
the bureau. In the first place all
prices have risen, so that if we were
only getting the same amount of
schools and the same kinds of roads
now that we had in 1913 their cost
would be higher. The number of
children attending school has in
creased by over One-third, due part
ly to the fact that the States have
been raising the ages of children
covered by compulsory school laws,
and partly, because parents want
their children to receive more edu-
cation.
The average length of the school
term has been increasing. More
children are going to high schools
than formerly, and the education of
a high-school student costs over
twice as much as that of one in
grammar school. All of these items
have been factors in calling for
more money for education. Every eff
fort has been made also to raise the
quality of education, and with such
changes have come increased salar-
les.
Much the same story is true of in
creased expenditures for roads. La
Dor and materials cost more. We are
building vastly better roads, and Civ
ing them much harder usage. 1t
costs more to maintain them.
Taxes have gone up partly because
of the general rise in the price level
and partly because the average COM
munity wants things which require
more and more taxes to buy.

''WOMEN, BE YOUR AGE"
SAYS BEAUTY SPECIALIST

Most older women make a great
mistake in wearing their skirts very
short, even if their legs are we'll
shaped, says Hazel Rawson Cades,
beauty editor of the Woman's Home
Companion. Miss Cades insists that
she is not criticizing any woman for
looking as well as she can, at any
age. But she declares that women
do grow older and nobody can beat
the game much.
In regard to skirts, she insists that
the whole architectural scheme of
the elder woman's figure should be
one of dignity, "and you can't get it
with short skirts" Shoes, she adds,
should be inconspicuous and give ade
quate support to heel and instep.
IAN insecure footing and L0ticeably
careful gait are two unmistakable
signs of age," she explains, "and
may often be avoided by proper
choice of Shoes"
1t is entirely possible, Miss Cades
observes, for a woman to be much
nicer-looking at sixty than at forty.
"But she certainly won't be as young
a woman, as her methods of decorat-
ing her person should not be the
same. Every age has its own limita-
tions, standards and assets. The
older woman should recognize, ac-
cept and capitalize hers. My quarrel
with the look-young school is that it
attempts to iron out these personal
or to dress them up
so that nobody in the world would
dream that the mature woman had
lived, seen or knew any more than
the veriest youngster.
Gas one grows older, adjustments
in the technique of grooming are
necessary. There is, for example, the
gradual color change in hair, eyes
and complexion. The brown-eyed,
girl who has always
worn browns finds her hair turning
gray and her complexion growing
paler. Brown ceases to fatter her,
and if she is wise she turns to green,
grays or plum shades. Only the
young fresh skin can dare a bright
rouge or any rouge in quantity. Any
showing of face powder makes
haggard skin look more So"

THE GOLD FOSSIL" DEPARTS

It is good to note the passing of
that old and cruel custom of ostra-
Ching the aged. No longer is an
older generation doomed to her
mit-like existence. Time was when
the active generations thought moth
ing of exiting the old folks so to
speak. But today those of advanced
years mingle with youth, and the
world is better for it. So no matter
what complaints may be lodged
against the new generations they
seem more liberal in consideration
and treatment of their seniors.
Yet why shouldn't this be? "For
age is opportunity no less" as one
poet puts it, and youth and age need
each other. Youth requires counsel
while age profits from the enthusi-
asm of young life.
1t is a duty of the experienced to
be an example and inspiration to
those who follow after. Just be-
cause life's sun is dipping toward the
horizon is no reason why man or
woman should be RELOCATED to the
fireside, there to dream and to crack
the knuckles of knurled hands until
relieved by death. They still have
work to do. What nobler task than
to try to guide youths feet along the
right path?
Nor is old age to be dreaded. There
is no reason why those with snowy
crowns should resign themselves to
an eddy while life surges by. They
should fide with the tide. Just now
we have many conspicuous examples
Of famous old people who continue
to work, and actively, for the better
ment of mankind.
AS Sir John Denham put It:
The spring, like youth, fresh blossoms
doth produce,
But autumn makes them ripe, and fit for
use.

IRREGULAR DATES
NSEED|NC HAVENO
EFFECTON HARVEST
Late Sowing, However, Has
Tendency to Shorten Straw
and Tighten Crop

That the date Of seeding wheat has
little or no effect on the time Of har-
vesting Is the conclusion which may
be drawn after looking over tho seed
ing and harvesting dates kept for the
past SO years on plots ct the North
Dakota agricultural experiment sta
ton at Fargo. This data has been
tabulated and released from the Of
flee Of DR.. r. F.. Trowbridge, director
Of the station. The dates Of seeding
and harvesting through 1917 were re.
corded by DR.. j. H. Shepherd, while
T. E. stoa has kept the records for
the past II years.
In the years Of 1896, 1901. 1908, 1920
and 1924. the date Of harvest was
August 10. but the dates for seeding
in those years respectively were May
6. May 1, April 18. April 26 and April
70. In some instances there was q
variation of q month in the date Of
seeding. while in every instance the
date Of harvest came on the same
date.
Late seeding Of wheat is not advo-
Gated by the North Dakota agricul-
tural experiment station, however. as
it is usually followed by q short straw
and q lighter crop. The principal
cause Of late seeding at Fargo In most
instances was due to late and wet
springs. Early seeding is advocated
in the Red River valley, 50 as to es-
cape rust hazards.

Gates the year, seeding date and the
harvesting date for the past SO years.
