GIVE THE Boy A CHANCE 
The world’s record for corn-raising 
belongs to Walter L. Deenson, an 
Alabama boy, yet in his early teens. 
Last year this boy raised 232 bushels 
Of corm on a single acre of land, 
which is the largest yield per acre 
ever recorded. This remarkable rec- 
ord was made by an ordinary boy and 
on ordinary land. He became inter- 
ested in corn raising and studied into 
the matter of the kind and proper use 
of fertilizers and proper cultivation. 
As a result of putting his knowledge 
to practical use, he has raised 232 
bushels of corn on one acre of land, 
thereby winning the championship of 
the world. What Walter L. Deen- 
son has done serves to show what a 
common every-day, out-and-out boy 
can do if he is given the chance. 
There are thousands of ambitious 
boys on the rich farms of this state 
who never know what it is to be en- 
couraged to take an interest in agri- 
culture or stockraising. If these 
boys were given a small plot of 
ground and some seed—corn for ex- 
ample—to plant and cultivate, a cir- 
cus would not be able to turn their 
thoughts very far away from the 
“enchanted spot” where a wonderful 
harvest will be theirs to reap. A 
boy may not be able to raise 232 
bushels of corn on an acre of his 
MONO 
é 
father’s land, but he can do well 
enough to make his efforts worth 
while. What boy in this vicinity is 
going after that world’s champion- 
ship record next year? 
THINK THIS OVER 
When a newspaper gives you a lot 
of free advertising in order to boom 
some concert or entertainment in 
which you are interested, keep track 
of the lines that are printed week by 
week and multiply that number by the 
regular advertising rates of the paper. 
Compare the results with the actual 
money value of any favor that you 
get from any other business concern. 
Then take into consideration the fact 
that advertising and circulation are 
the only two things that a newspaper 
has to sell. Now, in these days of 
‘higher prices, how much do you think 
it ought to give away? 
BREVITY 
Brevity may or may not be the 
“soul of wit,’ but there is no ques- 
tion in regard to brevity being the 
soul of conversation now-days. The 
aim of the up-to-the-second conver- 
sationalist is to cut all corners and get 
there in the shortest possible time. 
In days of yore a man was polite 
under all circumstances, no matter 
how much time it consumed. Then
