New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1895-04-24

The Legislature has happily settled a
much mooted question by passing a bill
for the removal o. the Birch Coulie mon
ument and change of its inscription. 1t
will always be a matter of surprise that
any one should aspire to the claim of
commander, as that claim must carry
with it the location of the camp in a
death trap. We should have supposed
that the living would have insisted on
giving the "honor" to dead man who
could not deny it. The location of the
monument if Tot on the battle field
should have been at St. Paul as capital
of the state. To plant 1t 'snear' the bat
tie field was ridiculous. The Legislature
is to be congratulated upon having right.
ed the matter according to the truth Of
history.-St. Paul Call.

1t has been said that Congressman
McCleary's excuse for not discussing the
financial question with Mr.. Lind is fear
that such discussion would lead to a
serious rupture in the party, On that
score the congressman should have his
mind made clear. The rupture, that he
fears, is already here and the beach is
widening as time passes on. Besides
what party ever suffered in honestly try
ingto arrive at the truth? What organ
ization was ever injured by having its
members do their best to enlighten the
people on new and important issues?

The St. Louis Globe Democrat favors
holding the next Democratic National
convention in that city. The precedent
has been that whenever a Democratic
candidate for president Was nominated
in St. Louis he was defeated, but the
Globe Democrat thinks that this should
make no difference this year, as the can
didate is sure to be defeated 10 matter
where he is nominated.
New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1895-04-24

There is no sense in the efforts of pre-
<sidential candidates like Mckinley to
throw the financial question into the
background, and give the tariff the ben
eft of all discussion. The people have
an idea that Wall Street is as much to
be feared as the cheap goods of Great
Britain and other foreign nations.

SHORT ThLkS on ADVERTISING.

copyrighted by Charles Austin Bates.
John WanamaLer has said: "To
discontinue an advertisement is like
taking down your sign"
That is just the idea. You have q sign
above your door to let people know who
You are and where you are, and what
you are doing. That's what your ad.
does. Space in newspapers merely
multiplies your sign. It let's thousands
OF people know what you have to sell.
The way to think Of advertising is to
consider first the goods you have, to see
II they are really desirable. Then figure
on the number OF people likely to \ ~
your announcement in the paper, the
proportion of possible customers among
that number, and what you can afford
to pay for each dollars worth of new
business. That will give you the size of
the ad. you want to use. Then make
your ad. clear, logical, convincing. Don't
try to be funny, unless you are naturally
40. and even then don't do it too often.
What people want in an ad. is exact,
definite information. 1t ought to be
given to them in a smooth, more or less
argumentative way, and as strongly as
possible, for "the other fellow" is after
these same people.
The amount to be spent for advertising
must be determined by the percentage of
profits and the percentage of possible
customers. 1t doesn't pay to buy adver-
Using blindly, no matter how good it is.
Ii you are selling 81 900 u week at
gross profit of % per cent. and can
increase the sales to 81 $50 at cost of
$50 for advertising, you are q clear
$3.50 ahead. Rent and clerk hire, light
and heat and interest all go on just the
same, whether you sell 81 900 or 81 $50.
1t is advertising that brings in the money
to pay all the other expenses. Adver-
Using is business insurance
Advertising what you haven't got or
what you don't do is worse than not
advertising at all. You can't well be
too careful about this. Make your ads.
strictly true in letter and in spirit. l
believe that the majority of business
men do this now, but as it is the most
important thing about advertising, it
will bear repeating and reiterating.
When merchants and laymen come to
consider advertising in it's legitimate
character of business news" it will pay
better-pay the advertiser better and
the ADVERTISE, too.

A Dry June Never Begs Bread.
This is one of the agricultural aphor-
isms that has perhaps more universal
currency than any of the agricultural
maxims relating to seed time and har-
vest. The June aphorism is founded
not only upon the experience of agri-
culturists but also upon the wisdom Of
observation. June is the month in
which plant life is most active aud
makes the most strenuous efforts to
maintain the mastery over the artific-
ial products of the field. A dry June
accompanied with torrid June gives
the plow and the hoe the advantage
over the efforts Of nature to supplant
the artificial work of man. Then this
unprecedented hot June is safe augury
of a good crop. A hot June is almost
necessarily dry June. So, take cour-
age, men Of the pillow and::the hoe, the
foundation rock upon which the whole
social and industrial fabric is builded.
Strike while the June solstice is at
hand, while the early and the latter
rain refuses its sustenance, while the
parched earth withholds its comfort,
and when every blow bids nature be
still until August, the weedy month,
comes with oyerpowering effort to
re-establish the native growth after.the
ripened fruits are ready for the abun-
dant harvest City Econo-
mist Falcon.

means more effectual than newspaper
advertising. The advertisement brings
together the seller and the buyer, the
supply and the demand, as in former
times, and to a comparatively limited
extent they were brought by the fairs
and market days. By thus facilitating
and vastly increasing their means of
communication, it has helped to reduce
prices, to stimulate the competition and

Remedy Against Flies.

The following is given as a remedy
against flies. 1t is simple and mex
pensive and worth a trial at this season
when flies are such pest about the
house. Get five cents worth of oil Of
lavender at the drug store and mix it
with the same quantity of water. Then
put it in a common glass atomizer and
spray it around the rooms wherever
flies are apt to congregate, especially in
the dining room, where it may be
sprinkled plentifully over the table
linen. The odor is especially disagree
able to flies, and they will never ven-
ture in it's neighborhood, though to
most people it has a peculiarly fresh
and grateful smell Suppose you give
it trial.
