a few bushels of these oats, which
were excellent in quality, and in a

He was unable to fill al the orders
which he received, but held a liberal
supply for seed, thinking that by SO
doing he would be prepared for next
seasons orders. But luckily or unluck-
lily, he got his name into The Democrat
"a second time in connection with the
White Shonen Oats. Again his supply
was rapidly called for; and 50 on, until
last year he stored for sale upwards of
three thousand bushels of these oats
and orders for them are now pouring
in upon him, and the probabilities are
that his large supply will be entirely
exhausted before seed time is over
Among late orders which he received
WAS one from Joseph Rodolph, man.

at Mentor, Ohio. He sells at fifty
cents a bushel, which in these days of

for oats. The moral to all this is:
Keep your name and business out of
the newspapers if you don't want to
do large and profitable trade.
