Catching Up With Bullets

II a shotgun is fired directly

seconds the plane will run right into

Mitchell Tin "Skyways"). This is
because the shot has an initial We
locity of 900 feet a second, which
falls off very rapidly. until at 60
yards it is only about 400 feet We

YOU
AND YOUR
MONEY
The Magic Of Compound Interest
(By John P. Mullen)


Many individuals of modest income
have the mistaken notion that they
>can never gain financial independ-
ence unless they inherit money, OBJ
tain more lucrative position or dis
cover some get-rich-quick Opportun-
ity. Such men and women have new
yer given consideration to the mar
yelous accumulative power of money
under a definite thrift program.
Let us suppose an individual who
saves as little as $40 month and de-
~posits it in savings account at S12
per cent interest. At the end OF 20
wears, if he has maintained his saw
ings. program, he will have on de-
posit $S,468.S6, of which $2,4OO rep
>resents the actual amount deposited
and S1,O69.S6 the interest earned.
The average man will say that S3,-
800 is not a great sum for twenty
years Of effort. True enough! But
$40 month is not great effort to-
ward an accumulation. Many indi-
viduals can save larger sum regu-
larly. Moreover, it is not necessary
to keep money at the interest rate of
Saving accounts. When an lndlVld-
tal has accumulated several thous-
and dollars above the needs of a re-
serve fund against sickness and un-
employment he is in a position to
take advantage of the higher return
gained through sound investments.
AS little as $40 month invested
and reinvested regularly at per
cent payable semi-annually will
: build up a principal sum of nearly
$4,000 in forty years. The man who
starts at the age of Is years to invest
about $12O annually and who rein
vests his interest regularly can re-
tire on an income of nearly S1OO
month at the age of IS. The man
= who can invest $25 month regular
1y at 6 per cent can build up, by rein
= vesting his interest promptly, a prin-
cipal sum of more than $4,000 in 80
: years. On $1O,50O actually saved and
invested he will gain more than $24,-
500 in interest or rent for money.
How many individuals can be de-
pended upon to double their earn
ing power in twelve years? very
few. But any man who has the Will
to save and the intelligence to en-
plOy his savings III SOuuu lu'SSI-
h ments can double his money in II
wears. invested and reinvested at g
per cent. ~
The individual who fails to take
advantage of the magic of compound
interest is neglecting the most GER
tain means to financial independ-
: ence. It will not bring riches over
night, it will do none of the wonder
full things promised by the fake pro-
moter and the security charlatan,
but it will make an individual rich
surely, which is more than the faker
and the fy-by-night have ever done.
But to gain the full measure of your
dfollars earning power you must
keep them in honest employment, in
securities that are backed by real
values and other dollars of strong
Y earning power. To find honest work
ing places for your savings 1t is
necessary to investigate thoroughly
\ to seek the opinion of your banker
or of honest, competent investment
dealers.

FARM NEWS

Although some "brOilers" may be
\ fat enough to market direct from the
range, it is often profitable to fatten
: chickens for a week or two before
marketing. Be careful not to over
: feed the broilers when they are first
put on the fattening ration. Grad
ually increase the quantity at each
\ feeding until toward the latter part
of the fattening period the birds are
getting all they will eat. The y. 5.
Department of Agriculture recon-
mends the following fattening ra-
ltions: parts corn meal, 3 parts
rolled oats, and 1 part middlings; or
6 parts corn meal, 2 parts ground
oats without hulls, and parts mid
dlings. Feed these rations with milk,
using 2 pounds of milk to pound OF
mash.
Practically all farm animals show
a preference for alfalfa hay cut IN
,the early stages of growth, but TINS
does, not mean that such hay is al
waysfthe best for feeding. Some ami
mails. especially horses and mules
do mich better on hay cut when the
alfalfa is in full bloom, as hay cut
i'm the early stages is somewhat too
laxative. Hogs and poultry, how
>eyerEcan not handle such coarse ma
terial, and unless the alfalfa is cut
while still young there is consider
(able wastage in feeding. 1t should
also sbe borne in mind that cutting
alfalfa while the plants are young
REDUCES both the yield ana the leIlstl
of lite1of the stand, ana the erowNel z.
Anrstltake this into consideration in
comparing the money value OF hay
cut young and at a more mature
stageaof growth.
