Beer, and let's see what's happening. Spring wheat. $5.63 a bushel. $5-6-3 . 5 hundred and 50 pounds steer cap, $3.96 a pound.
OK Solberg:I hope to shout. That's a lot of money. A butcher hog in Omaha, going down 55. 55. I can't drive. 55¢ a pound.
OK Solberg:And a hundred pound fat lamb in Billings at $2.17 a pound. But, guys, there's more, much more. Yesterday, I said, one, two, buckle your shoe. Yesterday, I said, three, four, open the door for a bible verse. Here it comes again.
OK Solberg:First Peter five seven, casting all your anxieties on him because he cares for you. We can cast our cares upon him, and when he builds us up, we can be a comfort to others. We can be a comfort to other people, especially when we heed the instruction in Dale Carnegie's book, How to Win Friends and Influence People, one of my favorite book. Listen to a little portion as I read right from the book. It's on page 75.
OK Solberg:Do this and you'll be welcome anywhere. What? I might want to read this. Well, I'm gonna why read this book to find out how to win friends? Why not study the technique of the greatest winner of friends the world has ever known?
OK Solberg:Who is he? You may meet him tomorrow coming down the street. When you get within 10 feet of him, he will begin to wag his tail. If you stop and pat him, you will almost jump out of his skin to show how much he likes you. And you know that behind this show of affection on his part, there are no ulterior motives.
OK Solberg:He doesn't wanna sell you any real estate, and he doesn't wanna marry you. I have to think that a dog is the only animal that doesn't have to work for a living. A hen has to lay eggs, a cow has to give milk, and a canary has to sing, but a dog makes his living by giving you nothing but love. When I was five years old, my father bought a little yellow haired pup for 50¢. He was the light and joy of my childhood.
OK Solberg:Every afternoon about 04:30, he would sit in the front yard with his beautiful eyes staring steadfastly at the path, and as soon as he heard my voice or saw me swinging my dinner pail through the buck brush, he was off like a shot, racing breathlessly up the hill to greet me with leaps of joy and bark of sheer ecstasy. Tippy was my constant companion for five years. Then one tragic night, I shall never forget it, he was killed within 10 feet of my head, killed by lightning. Tippy's death was the tragedy of my boyhood. You never read a book on psychology.
OK Solberg:Tippy never did. You didn't he didn't need to. You know by some divine instinct that one can make more friends in two months by becoming genuinely interested in other people than one can in two years by trying to get other people interested in him. Let me repeat that. You can make more friends in two months by becoming interested in other people than you can in two years by trying to get other people interested in you.
OK Solberg:There I end the quote, guys. Gotta get the book even though it was published in 1936. It is good as gold. Have a good weekend. So until next time, as you go out there, remember now.
OK Solberg:Don't be bitter.
