Advertising really pays II you 60
about 1t right.
There are few essential points that
are important in deciding upon how to
go about It right.
First: Never advertise an article
the people don't want.
Second: Never advertise an article
that hasn't the merit to give satisfac-
ton and to command the friendship
and enthusiasm of every purchaser.
Third: Find out Just what class OF
people will buy your goods Don't
try TO sell agricultural implements to
bank clerks, adding machines to ditch
diggers or books on theology to race
track devOtees.
Fourth: Try to approximate the to-
tai sales possible in your line, and then
adjust your advertising to get the full
benefit.
Fifth: Carefully select your media
to reach as many as possible Of the
very people you expect to buy your
goods.
Sixth: Carefully prepare your ads
so as to attract and interest the class
you aim to appeal to.
Seventh: Carefully arrange your
campaign so as to secure the maxi.
mum of publicity and effectiveness,
with the minimum of expense. There's
no use in buying half pages that won't
pay when you could make hit with q
series of 10-inch ads.
Eighth: Adjust your business to se.

Ninth: Make your advertising a con

There are some folks who base their
ideas of the prosperity of the country
on the fact that there is more money
millions and millions more-in the saw
ing banks. That is prosperity all right,
and frugality and care for the future,
and the old age that surely comes, that
is fine to witness. But there is another
kind Of prosperity. The average Amer
lean is better to his family and him
self than ever before. He has put some
money into the bank, and he Is prob
ably planning for home Of his own
instead Of remaining a renter. And he
has purchased more comforts and good
things to eat than ever before. He
has put some of his surplus into good
clothing, not only for himself, but for
the wife and children. In fourteen
years the population has increased 81
per cent. The increase in imports OF
tropical and subtropical products,
which are used by manufacturers OF

drink, show a much greater increase

The decrease In the visible supply OF
farm labor is worth more than passing
notice now that Eastern States have
added their complaint to the advertise,
ment OF Kansas and Louisiana for men
who are willing to work with their
hands. The one consideration not
touched upon Is most necessary, that
OF remuneration, Therein lies the solu.
ton, In part Mt least OF tho problem
When the farmer In Kansas or any
other State can AFFORD to employ Ia,
borer throughout the year az wages
that will meet the competition OF the
city there will be no reason for him to
complain OF a scarcity of men. The
country affords many advantages even
to the city-bred man, but he cannot az.
ford to live without some assurance of
steady employment. While he may
have the necessaries Of life he has
been accustomed 10 something more
and the country must provide them.
Perhaps It would be better for the
farmer to keep his son at home rather
than allow him to seek the city. where
he often finds employment no better
than he had on his fathers form. II
has been demonstrated that the farm
is a good place for the boy, and equally
good for the man, while the constant
extension OF the comforts and luxuries
to the farm home greatly increases the
opportunities for advancement over
those of even a few years ago. A thor.
ough education on this subject, com.
bned with knowledge of what the
city has to offer the young man Of to.
day, might have . healthy influence in
solving the labor question 20 far as the
general needs Of the ordinary farmer
are concerned.
