erate gencrnls, who poured shot after
shot at tho fearless engineer during wild
rides from Memphis to Ioulsvlllo nnd
from Appomatox to Manassas.
Since tho Civil War, and that was
more than a half century ago, Johnson
has been pursuing a quiet life, looking
after tho Interests of tho company and
rearing two sons who followed In their
father's footsteps nnd became engineers,
nnd right good ones at that, through their
father's teachings.
COINKH OF SLOGANS.
Johnson, as a coiner of slogans, rivals
lloosovclt. "Keep straight and you'll get
nhead" Is Just as much relished by some
as tho "Fear God and take your own part"
of tho doughty Colonel. Or his "Dance,
picture Bhows and automobiles aro driv
ing tho country to tho dovll" might bo
favorably classified along with similar
sayings of "Billy" Sunday.
These mottoes might bo taken as an In
dication of his remarkable possession of
his faculties. For, although 80 years old,
ho goes to work every day at tho olllce.
Ho quit actlvo work as tester of engines
several years ago.
A success In the ideal sense of tho word
Is George F. Johnson. And content with
tho fact that ho Is a l jal success, ho Is
happy nt his homo, 1927 Falrmount ave

When the New Yorker bought Hiram's farm, he rejected
Hiram's methods. He had theories of his own.
1 He got rid of the cows; pruned the orchard too heavily;
threw the farm all out of balance.
"The trouble with me," he says, "was that I knew too
much and not enough."
He has had four costly, nerve-racking years. But at last
he is winning. He knows now that his neighbors were
practical, and that he let his theories run away with him.
His case is not unusual. His story is a warning. He tells
it well Tenderfoot Farming today, in
Green Manure Crops

Kansas, U. S. A.
Kansas has paid her debts. She's now
a three-billion-dollar state. Luck?
No. Bumper crops? Partly. For
the whole reason, read this second
installment (complete in itself).
Flood Control
There are four sides to the question
of draining a river's flood plain : the
effect on floods, on farming, on fish
ing, on navigation. It's all explained
in this article.
Gumption
Gumption is horse sense. We nil
think we have our share. But here's
a case of two farmers, all charted out
in dollars and cents, that will sit you
down and set you to figuring.
And all these:
