"Edward S. Jordon has made prob1 ably a hundred speeches on this sub(ject: 'Wanted?Old-Fashioned Young i Men." That is the most thought-provoki ing subject I have heard of this year, j Mr. Jordon, by the way, is a successful young man, the founder and president of the Jordon Motor Car Co., of Cleveland. I missed the opportunity to hear Mr. Joidon when he was in my neighborhood, ar.l so I asked him to give me a brief outline of his talk. He writes: "The old-fashioned young man is a young man who has learned how perfectly simple it is to succeed once he learns a simple lesson which can best be illustrated by a statement once made to me by Henry M. Leland, that wonderful old man who built the Cadillac car. "He said, 'Every young man reaches u point in his career when he has aha ft?t/v /tAiiyooc T-f ho tU bllWdC Vile VI wnv WUA9VW* u, mv chooses to be clever he will meet a great deal of competition. If he chooses to be just plain, old-fashioned honest he will be so unique that he will make an immediate success.' "You can get 5,000 to 15,000 words in any smoking compartment on any subject from the rate of exchange to the liquor question. Most young men are spending most of their time talking about how conditions will have to materially change before business will ccme back. "May the.Lord have pity on them, because they will discover before very long that business has never been known to come back. "If a man asks me how;'I find business I always answer, 'By going out and looking for it' "The old-fashioned young man used to go out and look for it in the following manner: In the first place he was very happy that his health was good. "He rode in the day ccaches at night, never in the sleepers, and he covered every small town in his territory at top speed, trying as hard as he possibly could to get even a small order for his house. He saw as many prospects as he possibly could in every town, and some times covered five or six small towns a day, each day. "When he got back to the hotel at night he found a roller towel, a general wash basin, .a dirty piece of soap, a comb on a chain, and when he got up in the morning he usually found ice in the pitcher on the wash stand. "But today the young man who is out selling goods regrets seriously that he cannot carry his sticks with him for an occasional game of golf with one possible prospect. He kids himself into believing that that is thq way to get business. ! "He complains about the food at j the hotel, quarrels with the waiters, engages his chair in the parlor Car and his berth for the next jump before he starts out to solicit business. He reads all the cheap fiction that he can find instead of reading the autobiography of Benjamin Franklin, and he can tell you the batting average of all the bootleggers in every locality. "There are three fundamental characteristics of the old-fashioned young man. The first characteristic was spiritual?not that he went to church any more than the young man of today, although he did, but he had an appreciation for that fundamental which is the essence of success?the desire to be of service to somebody else. "Second?he found it absolutely necessary to have knowledge of his business, because the telephone, the telegraph and the night letter had not been developed to their present height of efficiency. He had to know all about his goods and get the order the first time because he could not travel nearly so fast as a salesman can today. "Third?be possessed the courage to ignore the sneers of the salesman across the street who was not so ambitious and who in these days makes a bluff at working a few hours a day and spends the rest of the time talking about it. "I asked one of our old-fashioned salesmen the other day whether he was not pleased that business was getting better? He said, 'No. I am not. I am afraid that a lot of ray competitors who are loafing on the job will find it out and go to work.' "The old-fashioned young man used to get to work on time in the morning. M\e old-fashioned boss used to be^here, too, and while money was At made so rapidly as it was dunar the five years of war, more was deposited and invested in interest-paying bonds. "The year of 1922 will r^vard oldfashioned young men. They have the greatest opportunity of their lives. ''It is only necessary for any young man who wants to make $10,000 a year to make up his mind at eight1 o'clock tomorrow morning that he ! will stop thinking of himself entireI ly and start to work for ths other | fellow. The revelation that he will ; receive within a very few days will so inspire him and increase his own happiness that he will undoubtedly adopt the habit for the year to come. "Once he forms the habit of serving the other fellow in such a way that the other fellow cannot help return the service, he will discover the first secret of success and personal happiness. Money, about which people talk so loosely, will come incidentally." o SHALL 1 POISON THE WEEVIL? Prof. Conradi, Entomologist, Makes Further Suggestions. Clemson College, May 24.?Farmers . .10 have not yet made up their minds definitely whether or not they want to poison will have to decide this matter without delay, as the season for poisoning is rapidly approaching and it requires time to secure machines and calcium arsenate. Before deciding one should carefully weigh the following considerations, advised Prof. A. F. Conradi, entomologist. 1. High yielding land. It is regarded that any land not yielding onehalf bale of cotton per acre in the absence of the weevil is poor land and that poisoning on such land may not be expected to prove profitable. 2. Heavy weevil infestation. Unless checked by unfavorable weather conditions, we may expect heavy weevil infestation over the greater portion of the State. 3. Proper preparation for poisoning and full determination to apply the poison correctly, By this is meant properly constructed ' machines, through prosecution of the poisoning schedule, and a determination to give it the necessary personal attention. Under these conditions, poisoning properly carried out may be expected to give profitable results if the weather is not so unfavorable as to make it impossible to apply the poison correctly. Of course weather condition is always a serious factor in faiming, and one that has to be reckoned vitl. every season. Wherever poisoning is decided upon, we confine our recommendations to dusting, because in every case where profitable results were secured in carefully conducted tests, they were secured by dusting. Directions for making infestation counts as well as for poisoning are furnished upon application to the Extension Service. o Some Cows These! A news dispatch from North Boston, Mass., says: Guernsey cattle brought a total of $262,930, an average of $2,738 a head, at the dispersal sale ra^antlv /vf fVin T anou'atar farm harrl of the estate of Frederick Lothrop Ames. Two thousand cattle lovers who attended the sale pronounced i$ the most remarkable ever held. The record price of $19,500, paid for Langwater Cleopatra by R. J. Benson of Princeton, N. J., is reckoned the highest price ever paid for a Guernsey cow. The bull Langwater Warrior, head sire of the herd, was sold for $15,000 to Miss Ruth Twombly of Madison, N. J., who also purchased Langwater Memoir, a daughter of Langwafer Warrior, for $13,000. ? o The County Record is mailed to subscribers at $1.00 the year, invariably payable in advance. ?o Subscribe for the Record now.
