| l.ocul Dealer Discloses Interesting
Facte on Sale.
??b-.;
Mr. K. N. Shannon, of jhe well
known firm of Springs & Shannon,
asserts in a recent interview, that
Kershaw county fat mora qrv quick to
realize thutyalue of a good farm Implement.
He aaya that thoae whq buy
only the bptter quality of plows, tillage
equipment, etc., are those who
have learned from .experience that the
so-called cheaper kinds serye only to
make trouble and result, almost always
in unsatisfactory crops.
"I iiave been noticing the buying
of implements in this town for considerable
length of time/' states Mr.
Shannon, "and It is quite a common
thing to find that every day, mora and
more farmers appreciate the quality
to be found in what has been proved
the better line of implements. Folks
in this part of the country aren't
going to t>e satisfied with just any old
kind of plow or planter, any more.
They're all buying the better kind.
They're finding out jthat if they want
good crops they've got to ptaht with
good planters, till the soil witVtbe
best tillage implements an4 harvest
with only the finest machinery."
Mr. Shannon went on to. say that'
the orignial cost of any Implement
doesn't seem to affect its sale as
much as it has in past years.
"You know," he tells us, "It used to
be that when a farmer was choosing
between two or more similar plows, he
invariably bought the one with* the
lowest price. Today, it's different,
He buys what has proved to be the
best "in the experience of thousands of
users."
Mr. Shannon handles the well
jcnown Avery line, made by the B. F.
Avery and Sons Company of Louisville,
Ky. He says, " Of course, I
believe I have the finest line of farm
implements that is made. It's not
just because I sell them that makes <
me believe it, either. It's mbre because
so many buyers of Avery goods
come back again and again for more
equipment. They tell me that they're
satisfied with Avory performance ?
and that's the acid test, I guess."
The slogan of the Avery organization
is "There is no Substitute for
Experience'^ and, according to Mr.
Shannon, this is proved by the statements
of his customers.
He says, "It seems that some farmers
have to learn for themselves that
it s the proved product, regardless of
price, that will make the most money
for them. Those who have used
Avery implements are sure that there
i isn t any better. And from the way
| I'm selling them eveiy day, I gue-^s
there aren't either!"

When President Coolidge retire*
from office March 4, l?297ne will be
possessed of * fortune estimated at
not let* than $400.000,, largely derived
from his savings while in the
White House, relates a Washington
special to JNow York World.
His friends think he will return to
Northampton, Mass., and live in comparative
retirement, perhaps writing
articles or books on auestlons of government.
So far as is known, he has
disclosed to no one his intentions or
his desires, though some years ago he
told some of hTs intimates that he
would like some day to be president of
Amherst, his alma mater.
That he will have as many business
opportunities as a successful trans-Atlantic
flyer can hardly be doubted.
Already there have been rtnort*, necessarily
incapable of verification as
yet, that the chairman of the United
States Steel Corporation, vacant since
the death of Elbert H. Gary, was being
held open for him in'case ho eliminated
himself from politics.
There have also been hates of prominent
insurance companies waiting on
the sidelines to Bhowhr bim with flattering
salaries and dignified overlordships.
New Englanders marked with the
same strain of thriftiness resent the
often repeated comments on Coolidge's
"acquisitiveness," and take pains to
point the difference between frugality
and venality. They are sure he would
not be lured by mere gold, that he has
no hankerings for great wealth, and
that, in fact, the money which his inbred
habit of economy has led him to
store up outruns his fondest dreams
of fortune.
Mr. Coolidge has been even more
circumspect in confiding his personal
affairs than he has been in airing his
political intentions, so that the estimates
of his wealth are the deductions
of those around him rather than
his own acknowledgments.
But those who have been close to
him since he entered the White House
say confidently that of the more than
$400 ,000 hie will have received in sal- f
ary by the time his term ends, fully
$300,000 will have been saved?put by
for the days of his retirement.
This estimate rests mainly on the
assumption that he has had no occasion
to spend more than $25,000 a year
of the $75,000 annual salary. And
some of his associates think he has
spent even less.
Added to whatever his savings are
the approximate $100,000 which his
father is said to have willed to him.
Most of this sum is said to be invested
in farm mortgages.
To the Coolidge of 'Northampton
days, paying $38 a month rent and
getting along, before he became governor
of Massachusetts, .n the small
retainers paid to a comparatively ob
scure lawyer, his present competence
looms as a genuine fortune.
As to a man of Mr. Coolidge's
simple habits and tastes, it is amply
adequate. It would be hard to think
of any man in public life with less
need for money than Mr. Coolidge.
About his only personal extravagance
is the smoking of cigars, the
poorness of which has frequently been
a subject of rueful comment. By nature
he shuns social life, in the sense
in which it is generally understood.
He never went in for sports. Horseback
riding, which he essayed tentatively
solely as a means of exercise,
he quickly forsook for his celebrated
electric horse. After frowning upon
the pastime of fishing, he took it up
on the humble basis of worms as
| against the more expensive arts of H!
the fly 'Tiffhermiuh. , jy,, H<
Although these birds have beea I1
known to scietice for 150 years, the B:
first nest and qggs of the rare Arctic H
surf birds were found recently on H
Mont McKinley, Alaska. '
A number of new uses for wild I!
animals have been found. At
dale, Michigan, a mud turtle was used
to burrow through a drain pipe that I i
had become clogged with silt; the
Indians of Guerrero, Mexico, train I |
boa constrictors sixteen to twenty I i
feet long to kill rats, play^th the H
children and guard the housej and in
Venezuela a species of crane ja used fl!
to guard sheep.
