eaya
That the neRlect of Uveetock re-
sults in increasing the ooet of living
on the farm and in lowering the stan
dard of that living i« a fact well
known te all agricultural authorities.
For example, the annual meat blil of
farmers for some states is enormous.

production This practice is obviously
antagonistic t«f thrift and proper
prosperity. The production of home-
grown food does not involve in the
least the limitation of the crop out-
put of the farm. It simply requires
planning and a little more carefuls
management. A cow or two to furnish
the family with mtlV. butter, and
cheese, and a flock of chickens to
furnish poultry md ' sers. will do
much to make f&m far? more health
ful and cheaper.
That the lack "t livestock lowers
the farmer's standard of living and
consequently his ctllciency there can
be little doubt. Without pork, bacon
and lard to season vegetables and
to supplement other Aods ordinarily
j produced on the farm the table is
seldom supplied with wholesome and
nutritious foods needed by those who
labor in the flelds. Without #neat
there is apt to be no substitute on
the farmer'e table, onsequently un-
less bacon and lard are bought at
high prices the balance of the foods
is wanting. At present prices of cur-
ed meats, it is quite evident that
farmers canjot afford to raise cotton
even at present prices to buy them
and the only alternative where the
meats are not produced on the farm
is to consume as little as possible,
which means usually loss In efficiency
But as importaA us the meat sup-
ply is it is of less importance than
the milk and butter for the family

"Take a personal interest in
every telephone call"
THE present wide-spread interest in telephone courtesy ag
a good-will builder has led to many excellent suggestion*
from subscribers for the improvement® of telephone
hab One of the most important rules that hag been developed
and adopted by a number of large business houses is: Take
a personal interest in every telephone call you handle.
To please a customer over the telephone la a very dtnerem
matter from pleasing him over the counter. But it is not ft
more difficult matter.
Employees who are encouraged to try to "see their tele-
phone customers; who are taught to give every call courteous
attention; and who areeurged to avoid the abrupt, brusque cr
perfunctory attitude that is so harmful to good will, soon be-
comes skilled in handling telephone calls quickly and courte-
ously.
