INSURANCE SELLING AS AN

HE girl who bas been successful
since childhood in “persuading peo-
ple to do things” has the faculties
which she can capitalize In selling In-
surance. For the power of persuasion,
plus the art of attention, comprises
the sclence of salesmanship.
So a small-town girl who succeeded
in selling me an accident policy gave
me to undersiand, in a conversation
subsequent to the traysaction.
“It's the girl who's always been able
to ‘tulk people around’; who always
got the best of It when she ‘swapped
clothes’ with her sisters—that's the
girl who should sell Insurance,” she
declared. “No girl should take up the
work unless she likes to sell; unless,
in minor, everyday ways, she has al
ways been successful in selling.”
In other words, the Insurance agent
must, paradoxically, be successful be
fore she even starts work! Now, for

the girl who sells vegetables or eggs,
neither must she take her wares into

specialty is fishing equipment, The

will be a ready sale among the fisher

output will exceed the demand right

in Short Season
We Already Have Varieties
Requiring High Tempera-
tures While Growing.
(Prepared by the United States Departmant
of Agriculture.)
The
“synthetic” development of un
variety of corn that will grow and ma-
ture under conditions of short season
and cool weather will be attempted by
the corn Investigators of the United
States Department of Agriculture from
a collection of 200 sample varieties of
porn brought to the department by
Frederick D. Richey, ugronomist In
charge of corn lopvestigations, who has
just returned from an exploration trip
through the Andean highlands of
South America in company with K, A.
Emerson of Cornell university.
Varieties Mature in Short Season.
“We already have varieties of corn
in this country that wiil mature

iow temperature in short seasons will
enable many areas In the United
States to grow corn, where the crop
will be of value not only for Itself but
because of its use In rotation.
Markets for Poultry
Farm people are always a busy peo-
ple, but they are not usually so busy
| that they cannot spare the time to
| ind good markets for their poultry
{ and poultry products. You can often
realize a few cents per pound more
| for the cockerels by selling to some
| hotel, restaurant, or cafeteria than
| oy disposing of them on the regular
market. Of course, If you live close
to a city this will be a very simple
| matter, but you can often find places
in even a small town where you can
receive premiums for quality produce.

Common red mites, which infest hen
houses and kill many chicks, can be
done away with easily. First clean
