The Post Office recently passed on the
matter of advertising debts for sale and
decided it was lawful and no infringe
ment on the postal laws to advertise
debts for sale i'll newspapers and period
icals and circulate the same through
the Post Office department.
Prior TO this decision, some thought
it was unlawful TO do so, however, there
seems TO be no grounds for such an
opinion as a debt is merely property and
has the same right TO be advertised for
sale as any other property. No one
would deny that creditor has a right
TO advertise note or a mortgage for
sale In fact, when foreclosure pro-
ceedings becomes necessary on a mort
gage or taxes become delinquent on
property, the law provides that the same
might be advertised. Certainly one
debt is no better than another and any
creditor should have right to advertise
any of his property for sale.

The trouble with Us is, that we look toe

We forget that the greatest things are
the simplest. In hunting for roses we
trample the daisies under our feet. We
are blind TO the chances and blessings
near Us because we are looking so far
away for them. Everything depends
upon the power of the mind to see oppor-

specialties. He must do general busi-
ness because of the uncertain seasons.
At one time wheat farming paid best.
Gratiot county was not the best Tor
wheat but was excellent for spring crops.
On the other hand Clinton county raised
large acreage with enormous yield. The
development of the Northwest has made
the price so low that there is little profit

returns in other crops. Montcalm excels
in potatoes and the Michigan potato is
noted for its excellence in all the markets
of the world. At one time there was a

il would raise nothing but white beans.

the better the crop of beans. He advo-
