a year, leaving her an insurance
policy of $4,000. And yet some
people claim it doesn't pay to adver-
tise.
Newspaper advertising costs you
too much when you try it today and
stop il tomorrow. So would clerks
cost you too much, if you hired
them for a day now and then. Same
with your dilivery wagons. The
wheels OF your business must never
stop; and the whole machinery is
out of gear unless the big advertis-
ing wheel is always turning.
The country merchants are accord
ing to the Argus Leader, being
organized in this state in an effort
to throttle the catalogue house bust
ness, and divert the business to its
natural channel--the country mer-
chants. The plan is not fully devel-
oped, but contemplates having a few
buy ia the markets for all, thereby
getting goods at a figure that will
enable them to compete with the
catalogue houses. This is all right
no doubt, but we believe the country
merchant is today, and has been for
years, selling as cheaply as the cat
alogue houses, when the quality of
goods is considered. But the
trouble is the people don't know it.
The country merchant, generally
speaking, fails to tell the public of
the bargains he has to offer. We
agree with Bro. Wright, of the
De Smet Independent, who is dis
GUESSING this question says: There
is just enc effective way of keeping
trade at home and that is by judici-
GUS advertising by the country mer-
chant, a method that has been etried
but little. IL the country merchant
has a bargain to offer, he should
tell the people of it. 1t will not do
to tell the people there are ''bar-
gains throughout the store" or "a
discount of 10 per cent has been
made" on a certain line-the peo-
pie are from Missouri and want a
description Of the article and the
price in plain figures. just SO long
as the country merchant refuses to
advertise his prices, just 50 long
will the catalogue houses advertise
prices and draw a large portion Of
the trade. The country merchant
can balk as long as he pleases, but
refusal to quote prices is the cata-
logue houses opportunity, and they
work it to a finish too.
After some centuries of anxious
waiting, an Iowa man has invented

From this leads a wire connection
with an elastic nipple on the udder

wire is worked back and forth like a
piston, creating suction in the nip

CHEAP AND DURABLE FENCE.

On wire, which seems to be high
enough. A strand Of barbed wire af-
fords effective restraint when placed
underneath a woven wse fence.
The question Of cheap, durable and
Serviceable fencing for the small yards
adjacent to the piggery Is important.
A tight board fence probably makes
the most perfect a for turning hogs.
We have attempted to make a suitable
substitute. The fences forming our

wire with 2 by g inch material at bot
