AN AGRICULTURAL POLICY
Tho Wolfe City, Tex., Chamber of
Commerc. has adopted an aitricul-
tural creed that seta before the com
munity a itoal that is appropriate for
nearly any town or county in the
Co it on States. It follows:

Mount Rokatinda, on the Island
of Paloweh, Dutch East Indies,
blew up in a volcanic eruption. Hal'
the island, six villages were dc
atroyed, a thousand killed.
Yesterday
that ihre
more villages were wiped out by n
tidal wave caused by a submarine
earthquake.
We pay little attention to these
deaths far atfay, n thousand or fifty
thousand, little difference.
Bu: we ought to observe with
gratitude how many things might
happen to us that do not happen.
Raditch, Croatian statesman,
murdered leader of peasants, is found
to havi a brain of abnormal weight
The average for eleven thousand
human brains way 1,361 grammes.
All things being equal, a heavier
brain is better than a lighter brain.
But one of the heaviest brains ever
weighed, that of Cuvier, the great
naturalist, was lighter than that of

“Andrew Carnegie made his first
$400 without spending a cent.”
That’s how big fortunes often start.
Carnegie bought $400 of insur

ment, paid for the stock with its
dividends, owned it for nothing.
Jos-yph P. Day, learned land sci«
entist, says the three greatest let

meaning “Other People’s Money.” :
A (uirker way to make money
without capital is to have a good idea
and push it A way to plate metallic
surfaces with aluminum, something
hitherto found impossible, is discover
ed and involve# actually billions of
dollars to be saved.
The invention will be applied to
endless uses, from kitchenware to
locomotives, and is expected to give
automobiles a finish defying time and
weather.
There are as good ideas in the
human brain as ever came out of
it. Try and find one.

Compared with other companies

WISDOM! Ar. Yoa Going to U*o Eitkor? COMMON SENSE-
The old method of each person selling their own cotton, b
getting local buyers to make a bid, and then just taking the 7
Price,” is recognized as bad butincu. For the simple reason
“Highest Bid” may be many dollars under the market value. '
How many people can grade cotton? There are 26 different
grades and the money difference between them is great. The prej.

Liberal advances at any time. $1.00 covers the expend 0 i
selling each bale and if you hold your cotton, only 50c per bale per
month is charged, which covers everything.
