The giving of presents to children at Christmas time is as old as Christianity itself, for it was begun by the three Wise Men of the East, who came to Bethelehem, where the Child lay in the manger, bringing gifts. It is easy to forget what it is that Christmas commem- orates. It is easy to think of it merely as a holiday time, a time when there is a great deal of shopping to be done, NEW MAN HEADS when the stores are crowded and everybody is busy wrap PACIFIC TEL.

It looks, at first glance, as if it was a long ju m p from a great Wall Street financial institution to the farmer a thousand miles away. It doesn’t occur to some folks that whatever affects the farmer affects the biggest banks in the country. The bankers know that, whether the farmer does or not. The Guaranty Trust Company of New' York, for exam pie, has just printed a study of fertilizers, not primarily for the information of the farmer, but for the information of the big business men who are the Trust Company’s cus tomers. It is important news to them that sales of fertil izers in the United States has continued strong during the financial depression, so that the total for the year wifi probably equal the record of 1929, which was next to the largest year in the fertilizer business. From an investment point of view, the Trust Company Ry men ns of a new argues, the fertilizer business ought to be a good one, since ln u m a rtic le s are now farmers are learning more and more the dollar value of a v a rie ty of colors. fertilizers. “The average yield in the principal wheat growing sections of the country,” the Company reports,! “without the use of fertilizers, was only 12 bushels to the acre; the average cost per acre was $13.73 and the average cost per bushel was therefore $1.14. W heat grown on the ] same land, under the same crop conditions, but with a pro perly balanced fertilizer, yielded an average of 281/» bush els to the acre, with an average cost of 67 cents a bushel.” That tells the story of the dollar value of fertilizer to the farmer. And if it be argued that what is needed now' is not more w'heat, which is probably true, it is also true that, no matter what the market price of wheat may be, the farmer who grows it most cheaply w’ill come nearer to making a profit than the one who does not use every possible method of increasing his acre-yield and cutting his bushel-cost. In thinking of others at Christmas Time Why not open a Savings Account for them? An initial deposit of $1.00 will open an account.

I used to see him often, and it distressed me to observe that his increase in w'ealth had apparently added nothing to his peace of mind. He seem ed to be always worried. His health was not too good. With each added million he developed a new complaint. The other day I saw him again’for the first time in near ly a year. His eyes shown. He was full of pep and plans —a wonderful transformation. “You know, I used to talk about retiring,” he said, “and I had just about made up my mind to do it when the stock market crashed. Then I discovered that I couldn’t afford to retire. “I’ve gone back to work, and it’s the greatest tonic I ever had. I doubt now if I’ll ever retire. When you come to think of it,” he added, “idleness is just a form of suicide.” The phrase is striking, but the thought which it express es is not new. Many men have made the same discovery, and usually at the price of unhappiness. Charles Lamb, when released at last from his drudg ery of desk work at the India office, cried out that he would not go back to his “prison for ten thousand pounds.” “I am free! Free as air!” he wrote estatically to a R. Alexander, V ice-President A. HL Horton, Cashier ■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■a C O N S O L ID A T E D T ru c k Lines THE WAY OF LIFE B.
