Fagan into con\ creation. Of ♦{• course he asked the usual loohsh questions, one of which was: “Suppose, Chief, you were lunning at tuple causing £ •> speed, out in mid-ocean, and the signal came: ‘Full speed ~ astern.’ How r long would it be before this big boat would be gin to move sternwaidY” ♦> Engineer Fagan, who is fai handiei with information X within his line than the a\erage encyclopedia, was ready with his reply, which w'as “Between five and ten miles” * Think of it! The giant mistress of the sea would mo\c ahead at least one hundred ordinary city block-lengths be- X fore leversing piopellers would begin to get the better ot X momentum and stait hei moving backwaids! Momentum is a great ioice. It keeps planets whirling £ about the suns; and it whiils businesses along toward suc *»* cess or failure, as the case may be. *»* t Here is a business —youi business, perhaps—which has ? never advertised but w-hich starts advertising. And if you J are captain at its helm, you may be not a little surprised that the icsults of that first advertising do not show them -3* selves almost instanter Then never forget the testimony X of the Leviathan’s chief engineer I $ For a business to change to a policy of advertising is to i* make a radical change in the propelling powei behind it; 5 and theie must be a reasonable time allowance made before 3; that new’ power may reasonably be expected to show itself X and to reverse direction on the Sea of Meichandising. En- X gineer Fagan does not expect the impossible of his propel "k leis, laige and powerful though they maj* be; nor should y you, Captain Merchandiser, of your advertising. 7H5 fSilif BTATT: CCtl.i.i.Cuf ?I SHORT POULTRY COURSE PREPARED BY COLLEGE the Eatland t-Juick Lunch departments ot the Amicultm til i Stiiool will piesent ptnblems Mt.il to j successful poult! v hiisbundn These lectui os will cou*t I ceding, ' o’peciullj ns mlluonccd bv \itnmmosj and mmetnl miMuies, blooding, in-, (libation and othei phases 'i'lie in-!' stmclion and intoiimition given, will' be specihed .md basic, wJnle seu'ialj successful poulti Miiori will spe.ik on i 1 methods of management which thei M have used The emu so is planned to be ns biond m scope as possible and 1 let be specific in oidei to color a wide I i bold.
