They are little things—such as new seed catalogs, ads clinped from magazines, reminders, scribbled on backs of envelopes, of things to be done. Thousands of men, all over the country, are making such notes, looking ahead—farmers, manufacturers, storekeepers, bankers. They represent what is called "management,” and they know that to make the most of any season requires pretty careful figuring. LETS GET BETTER ACQUAINTED ! There's a skill in this management. It’s a skill that men who run things have in common—that men who run things succesefully have got to have. Management’s problems are a good deal alike, no matter what the business—getting help, meeting payrolls and tax payments, making ends meet and having a little left over for new projects, planning for the future without letting the planning interfere with the job in hand.
