THE NEXT HOUR.
>
An editorial in the March Woman's
Home Companion suys:
"Everything can happen in tho next
hour that has ever happened. It
t contains all the possibilities of a universe.
In the next hour children will
be born, men and women will die,
whole worlds will be smushed to
atoms and drop out of space, and tho
girl you love go back on you. In the
next hour the house may burn, you
may yuarrel with your bebt and
dearest friend, some one may give
you poison, your fortune may be
stolen, the government may change,
the temperature may rise or fall
, forty degrees, and the world may
come to an end.
"You plan how you will pass the
next hour and lo! the train is ditched,
the auto turns turtle. Aunt Jane
arrives, the neighbor's baby has convulsions,
the house is struck by
lightning, your tooth begins to ache,
a telegram is delivered, the wires are
out of order, you are discharged,
somebody dies and leaves you a fortune,
you are operated upon. The
next'hour is what you ever were and
what you ever may be compressed
into sixty minutes. It is the period
of hope deferred, of supreme victory,
of total annihilation, and the entrance
to an assured immortality, j
Fixed as the stars in heaven, unal-j
terable as the law of gravity, it
stands before you like the grim I
sphinx, contninlni' u,-ifv?in i?ooO oii
the marvelous variety of human experience.
"To know how to meet the next
hour with joy. with head erect, with
courage singing in your heart is to.
solve the deep mystery of eternity." j

NEEDED TO ?ET OUT OF DEI1T.
In the March Woman's Home Companion
is an interesting article on
debt and how to get out of it by
a woman who was almost ruined by
her husband's carelessness and extravagance.
Among other things
she say8:
"If a family that has been living
outside its income wants to start to
' live inside, something more than a
good resolve is necessary. Usually
that man and woman has got to
form a wholly new circle of freinds. ,
They must leave these who are living
outside, and take up their abode (
among those who are living inside.

"Last year American farmers used
four and a half million tons of com- IV&nl
mercial fertilizer." says an editorial
in the current .issue of Farm and X?
Fireside, "most of which was dellVj
ered by the railroads within a shipping
period of eight weeks. To put Bi
it more simply, the railroads hauled
and delivered more than half a million
tons a week, and nobody was in- Ja
convenlenced much by failure to get fflg
his fertilizer when he needed it.
1 "Hut this year the country is still
struggling along with a car shortage t'
that began about October 1st with
19.000 oars, and according to the la- j;
tfst authentic reports there Is a fia t
present sfrortago of 150,000 cars.
Somebody will have to wait for his
freight. SB
"The fertilizer folks, along with 118
many other business enterprises, SB
stand a good chance of losing a part 553
of their 1917 business if the public B
learns of this condition too late. But ' -1
what is more important, land that BjH
needs fertilizer will give disappoint- TOj
ing yields, for lack of it. unless a sub- j&a
