BEFORE—GIoomy, old fashioned kitchen
resulted in gloomy, uninspired meals, lowered
housewife's morale. Inefficient appliances kept
her away from her family and other housework
for long hours.
For men only:
Most businesses today arc
aware that nothing lowers em
ployee efficiency and morale
more effectively than gloomy,
! uncomfortable surroundings.
The same psychology applies
lat home. It's a rare housewife
who can be efficient, happy, and

A decision is no better than the
information on which it is based.
I don’t know who uttered those
“words of wisdom" first. I wish it
had been me because the more you
think about the statement the more
sense it makes. "A decision is no
better than the information on
which it is based.”
Wrong information, partial in
formation, misleading information
can all lead to a bad decision.
There is no need of my telling any
of you who operate a that
managing a farm business calls for
making mnny decisions. And wheth
: er you realize it or not, all of these
I decisions are based on the infor
mation that you have at hand. T‘
matters not whether it's the little
day by day decisions or the Ion"
range plan. And in making decis
ions. whether small or large, all
available facts should be collected
nd studied carefully.
Take for example, your decision
as to what crops you will include
in your farm plans this vear Tn-.~
are many decisions to go in this.
Much of the information will be
from your personal experience and
the kknowledge that vou have of
your personal situation. Some of
the other information that you need
will be outlook information. Of

■■ r —Hogs Are Good “Gleaners”
The picture of pigs mopping
up fallen ears in a com field
hardly conforms to the paint
ing of “The Gleaners” by Mil

same: salvaging grain that
would otherwise go to waste.

crops such as soybeans or rape

ment in self feeders, as near
the com as possible, was almost
always recommended.
The latter definitely applies
to pigs that are salvaging fallen
ears left in the fields now by
corn pickers. The supplement
mixture to be self-fed should
not be too palatable or the pigs
will indulge in it too freely in
stead of roaming over your
field in search of dropped ears
of com.
Instead of having a mixture
of perhaps only soybean oil
meal and meat scraps, you
would do better to add some

Of course, day to day decis' ins

If you sacrifice principles for friendship, you
lose something and gain nothing worth having.
Courtesy may take a little of your time, but,
in the long run, it may save you more time.
The more an individual is certain he knows,
the less you may be sure he really knows.
