WILLIAMS &
' THRIFT
'By J. Oscar Thomas, Spray High
School First Prize in Thrift Contest)
The common short definition of
thrift is "frugality", which means
vi little something different from mere
economy or saving. But this does not
make the term clear enough to serve
ac the basis of a discussion. The word
thrift imeans more than economy. It
means intelligent economy. It has a
much broader meaning than saving
money for it also covers the conser
vation of other valuable things. It Is
poor economy to save dollars, and
then carelessly permit the destruc
tion of property that it takes dollars
to replace. . . .
, Thrift is not miserliness, for it con
templates discrimination. It is not
( tnrift to spend ten cents worth of
lime gathering up some wasted ma
terial that is worth but five cents.
Thrift Is, consistent and sustained.
It profits nothing to save small things
to spend in periodical sprees of ex-
A. ...
imvagance on larger tnings.
, Thrift involves the intelligent use
of aoiiey and necessities a good un
derstanding of the real value of
money Money is useful only for
the things it will secure. Just as the
sun stored up energy in the ages past,
and the squirrel hordes its stock of
nuts for the coming winter, so we
can conserve our own energy by sav
ing a part of our earnings.
The main objects for which men
save money are to protect themselves
' from poverty in old age, to give their
' .children a start in. life, and to secure
same or tne comrorts of life for them
selves. In early life the most lntellii
gnt object for which one can save
his money is to secure an education
or technical training which will en
able him to increase his earning ca
pacity and wield a greater influence
in all walks of life.
It is not thrift, but fooish extrava
gance, to use poor or dull tools to
save a little anoney, when good tools
would increase the profits far beyond
the mind to which the most wonder
ful of all instruments, and which r
bponds to training as readily as an
edged tool does to sharpening.
In order that the plan of saving
may be a success one must begin in a
methodical way. Form the habit of
saving a certain amount in a given
purlod of time and it soon becomes
natural to reserve a part of your funds
to the savings account. This not only
adds to ones financial ability, but also
develops within a person manliness
and self-reliance, and gives him a fix
ed purpose In life.
One should use judgment in invest
ing his savings. Thrift means noth
ing more to a man who permits some
Echeming fellow to come along and
persuade him to invest his savings
m some wild speculative enterprise.
Savings should be invested in real
estate or some business which is ab
solutely safe.
In short, thrift may be summed up
as the art of getting most out of life
-In a material way in the best man
ner and for . the longest tiime. And
while this ha3 nothing to do with the
spiritual side of a man's nature, it
is true that the self-denial necessary
to save, and' the sound business judg
ment to guard one's savings and
utilize them' wisely afterwards are
verjr material helps in the develop
ment fo steady character.
Vegetable Crops for Winter Us4
Fanners Should pay particular at
tention to putting in crops, not only
for summer and fall use, but also
crops that can be utilized to advan
tage during the winter. Any surplus
es of Tomatoes that are grown can
be easily canned for winter use In the
trdinary Mason preserving jars. Pole
snap beans make excellent green
snaps, and the dried beans of these
can also be saved to advantage for
winter use. Of course, anv surnlusM
of butter beans or blackeye peas can
also be saved to advantage in this
way. .
It is also advisable to plant crops
like carrots, collards. brussels
late cabbage, beets, salsify, and tur-,
nips liberally, as all of these crops
make excellent winter vegetables,
and it is during the winter that the
scarcity of vegetables is most felt and
when vegetables sell at the highest
prfces.
Hubbard and delicious Squashes are
very desirable vegetables to grow for
winter and can be stored so as to
keep well through the winter and
early spring. Some of the varieties
o pumpkin, also make an excellent
vegetable for cooking, as well as
sfock feeding.
It is advisable to plant seed sweet
potatoes extensively. Indications are
that, there will not be anything like
enough Irish Potatoes to plant for
late crop for winter use. Seed sweet
potatoes can be obtained at the pres
ent time without any difficulty, and
fs they make an admirable winter
food crop. and are likely to be very
