on a real New Years celebration.
Just compare the situation today
with conditions year ago! Last
eptember-although few realized
it at the time-business was push
ing off on a sharp toboggan ride.
Today we are fortunate in facing
exactly the opposite situation. Busi-
ness is in a powerful elevator sweep
ing upward to higher levels. My
prediction is that the 1888 trend
on its way up will pass the 1887
level on its way down sometime
before Thanksgiving.
Everyone Not Bullish
Yet I find that my optimism is
not shared by everyone. Many peo-
pie fear that the current improves
ment is more campaign window
dressing than business upswing.
Others refuse even to recognize
that there has been an advance in
activity this summer. Members of
the latter group keep asking me:
Where do you get your figures?
My business is no better!" Hence,
I want to give readers some defin-
ite facts.
Figures usually make such dull
reading that I avoid them when
ever possible. The following facts
are so cheerful, however, that ev-
eryone should glance them over:
/. Heavy Industries: Steel opera
tions-at Al per cent of capacity
up 100 per cent from the June low,
August machine tool orders so per
cent above July Railroad equip
ment showing signs of life for first
time in a year and half.
2. Building: Running 5 to 10 per
cent above year-ago level. Recent
week was best in seven years at
this season. Private construction
doing its part in this improvement.
3. Banking: Debts only 10 per
cent below 1887 level. Deposits up
$4,000, 100000 since New Years.
Loans to business reviving. Busi-
ness failures falling.
4. Prices: Security prices up 40
per cent. from lows. Commodity
prices climbing. Retail prices 8 per
cent below last September and
holding steady.
S. Light Industries: Textile ac-
tivity 33 per cent above hree
months ago. Shoe output has
jumped SO per cent since Spring.
Lumber "cut" up 80 per cent more
than normal since Easter.
6. Other BarOmeters: Weekly
carloadings up 100000 cars, or 20
per cent since Memorial day
Power consumption 10 per cent
above June low. Auto retail sales
prospects for September most
hopeful in a year.
Upswing A Natural
After reading these figures
| based on actual statistics on my
desk-can anyone doubt that the
upswing is real? Putting these
facts all together in my BabsOn-
chart Index, find general busi-
ness is IL per cent higher than On
June 1. Many people insist that
public spending is the sole reason
why business is better. I do not
agree. I think that the improve
ment is due to natural causes. Dur
ing April, May, and June, less
goods were being produced than
were being sold and consumed
Production had to start up and il
was purely coincidence that the
turn came just as the WPA and
WPA faucets we're opened.
From now on, however, public
spending will be one of the strong
influences on business. Between
now and February first torrent OF
dollars-nearly three billion oi
them-will pour out of the U. S
Treasury. Every thirty days now

.or,etbinq about the boy caused
be, TO look at him more Closely
His sad. gloomy, defeated manner
struck her most forcefully. He had
an attractive face, but his speech
and personality was churchyaro
at midnight. Surely here was a
little lad who lacked encourage
ment.
Well. Miss Hill proved that she
knows something about psychology
and human nature. She decided
she would perform a little expert
ment. She would see if she coulo
build up this unhappy little BOY
into a real salesman. She struck
up a conversation with him; en-
couraged him to come back again
Then she coached him in the SIM
nlest and most effective trait IN
all the world. The habit of smll-
ing. She impressed upon him the
value of a smile; she taught him
that he must approach his CUSTOM
ers with smile.
The boy shook his head. A smile
wouldn't sell anything, he SAID,
The people wanted to buy mag
azine, or they didn't, and that end
ed it.
"Will vm1 try it for Just one
day?" she asked.
"Well, all right" he said dis
interestedly.
Smile right now% she urged.
He worked up a thin smile. She
kept after him until she got him to
smile naturally and easily, and
then sent him into an office down
the hall. He had more cheerful
voice, and he smiled; but he didn't
make a sale. In the third office he
did!
This opened the boys eyes. There
might be something to this idea
after all!
Next she drilled him into a
CHEEKY Good morning." "How do
you-do, sir?" and 10 and behold! he
began to make sales. Up to this
time he had had the lowest sales
record of any boy in the district,
The company had been on the
point of taking away his badge
Now he began to climb. And
the more he smiled, the better he
liked it. Customers took an inter-
est in the CHEEKY little fellow who
made the office seem a warmer and
more friendly place.
His sales continued to increase
He climbed higher and higher in
the estimation of his boss. At the
end of three years he stood first in
his district He is now helping sup
port the family and has a savings
account of his own.
What simple idea! Anyone can
apply it. Smile and mean it. No,
just a silly grin; but an fash
ioned heart-warming smile. Make
your customers feel that you like
to see them and that you wish
them good luck. Not. only will il
make more money for you, but you
will also get more fun out of living
Try it.

hydrogen, phosphate, potash and
lime; these are the plant nutrients
that--are so vital to plant life.
Other minor elements are needed,
but the soil usually has enough of
these elements without having
them added.
Nitrogen is used by the plant
to produce the vegetation part of
the plant, including leaves and
stems. Phosphate aids in produc-
ing stronger stalk, and in pro-
ducing starch in the grain. Potash
aids in producing disease resist
ance, stronger stalk, starch in
grain and developing root growth.
Lime which is composed largely
of calcium and magnesium is also
used by plants to a small extent
but the quality of neutralizing soil
acvidity is probably more impor-
tant than the first two. BY neu-
tralizing the soil acids beneficial
soil bacteria are encouraged to
grow. These bacteria in turn
make available the plant neutri-
ents such as nitrogen, phosphate
and potash.
Nitrogen, phosphate and potash
may be compared to the fuel or
gasoline in an automobile, the
gasoline furnished the power or
energy that drives the car but oil
must be present in the crank-case
before the car will loperate eff
GENTLY, and so it is with lime in
making the use of nitrogen phos-
phate and potash more efficient.
Farmers in Henderson county
have used between five and six
thousand tons of lime during the
last year. The farmers in the
county have made a wise decision
in doing this, since beneficial re-
suits may be seen by the use of
lime for six or eight years after it
is applied to the soil.
