it on fire. With the aid of few buck

Mr.. }. r. McCallum, the enterprising
market gardener, who lives about one
mile out on the Roswell road, adyer-
tised in the Journal sweet potatoes for
sale. He tells US that he had numerous
calls, as many as dozen buyers day.
One day he sold forty bushels. He said
that if he hadn't advertised the people
would never have known he had the po-
tatoes for sale. 1t shows that the
Journal is read by vast number of
people and if you want to sell anything
there is no better medium to let the
fact be known.
