who 'topped' his fruit with nice large
berries and permitted the .remainder
of his basket to be filled with seconds
had the hardest time to sell them.
This taught me specific application
of that time-worn. but all too little
practiced proverb. that honesty is the
best policy after all. Saving the pub-
lic honestly in any deal constitutes
good will. and it is often capitalized
and sold for several times the value
or all other assets. ‘
Secret of Success
"Occasionally we hear young men
say that we older men are not np-to-
daio. Well. that sometimes is true but
I am actively engaged in a number of
corporations as member of their fi-
nance or executive committee. bank-
ing trust companies. manufacturing.
shipping. construction insurance.
merchandising. etc.. and I find the
fundamentals are the same in all: in
a word it is obtaining success by de-
m allergen-m
have to do better and at the mini-
mum of‘cost. .
”It is true business is very much
changed. Take these colts you have
been watching here-we train them.
never think'of punishing them. but
rather exciting their ambition.
“As an illustrations of the advance
that has been made when we first
started our track we were very much
pleased when we succeeded in going
the full mile to their road carts in
a little better than 2:09 1-2 which
under racing conditions is considered
as good as 2:04. which is within three
seconds of the best time ever made
by a three-year-old. We would not
value very high a two-year-old year-
ling that could not trot better than
2:330. 80 it is in business. What we
are doing today in better quality.
greater yield, and less cost represents
very much more than the profits we
are making as compared to. results
that woroobtalnsd 15 years ago. At
least this is true of our own industry
in refining corn and'practically all
others'of which I have any knowl-
e e. ,
“So I would say to'the young man
of the present day he must know
more than his father to be equally
successful—not necessarily a. college
education. but a greater knowledge of
whatever he proposes. to engage in.
whether farming. manufacturing.
merchandising or professionally. and
above all things 'iisten and take ad-
vice from successful men who have
gone over the road.’ I and most of
the mistakes made by young men are
very similar to those ‘we ourselves
made. and if they had counselled with
us they might have avoided them.
Sock criticism, do not shirk lt~That
more than anything else is most
helpful.‘ "
“After all. whatever it. is. one must
pay the cost of any kind of success
In saying this to young men. a little
while ago. one of them afterwards
said to me. 'You know. Mr. Redford.
I am fairly good at tennis. but i
was so badly beaten by a friend the
other day that I gave up in amaze‘
ment. 1 used to beat him so easily
I asked him how he improved so
greatly. He said he rose at 4 o'clock
in the morning and practiced outI
shot for two hours. He asked me if
I were willing to do that. and I an-
swered "No." I played the game
for the pleasure there was in it. Bul
it was this seemingly which counted
for his success. and that is how all
success is accounted for.’ ONE MUST
PAY THE COST." -
Owns Famous Racers
It has been obzerved by one of the
metropolitan newspapermen who is a
friend of Mr. Bedford’s. that. although
well past the scriptural limlt‘of age
he is still a young man as far as his
energy is concerned. He knows how
to play wisely. as 0 notes who be-
comes familiar wit his habits. Not
alone in making others happylis he
concerned. He seeks. too. to find
happiness for himself in the channels
he prefers. His fine horses and eta-
blel am his hobby. and he will tell
you .too. that every man should have
some kind of hobby. On his estate
some of the world's greatest racers
have been bred. Ramey Maccy of
Lexington. Ky" has charge of the
stables and travels south each win-
ter with the horses. Th5 stables which
house. these choice bits of horsenesh
are the finest in the east. and to one
interested in racers. strongly remind
him of the late Pierre Lorillard's
course in Red ‘Bank on the Shrew:-

more than I. turn with his sulke'y
a record of 2:05 is a favorite of his.
This horse has been granddammed by
the famous Nance Hanka
like Philanthronies
The most dlflicult problem of a
rich man lies in giving away money
That sounds ridiculous. but it repre-
sents the experience of Mr. Redford.
There are so many channels into
which to turn it. that. it is almost a
hardship to determine just what may
be given away to get the best results.
Mr. Bedford's gifts fbr civic. charita-
ble. patriotic. benevolent and educa-
tional purposes run into hundreds of
thousands of dollars. but he seeks no-
thing in the way of recognition or re-
ward. save his own mtisfaction that
he has been able to accomplish genu-
_ino good with his gifts. Ho permits
none of the organisations .to heap him
with praise. and his attitude on all
serving it. by doing the things you
such matters is uncompromisingly

Gift to Y. M. C. A.
The Westport Y. M. C. A. is Mr.
Bedford's latest gift to his \adopted
town. Though the building will not
be formally occupied until August.
when it. will be turned over to the
town, it'even now in its “completed
state shows evidence of its beauty
and practicability. It is constructed
of red polished brick. with oak trim-
ming. The main entrance is on
State street. A portion of the build-
ing will be given over tb the ladies
where the “’omen's Town Improve-
ment association may meet. Strictly
speaking the building will be a calm
munity house rather than Y. M. C.
A. shelter though it is given specific-
ally to the latter.
