HOW TO BEAT THEM.
State Office Gives Advice In Regard
to the Matter.

A member Of the dairy and food
commission recently gave out an in
terview III reference to the mail
order houses shipping goods to con-
sumo that contains some sound ad-
vice.
1t is as follows:
This department has been giving
considerable attention to groceries
sh1pped into the state by mail order
houses. We have been trying to
place before the consumers the fact
that many of these goods are illegal
under pure food laws, and that this
department has no jurisdiction over
such shipments. We cannot punish
such violators and thus protect the
consumers, as we are enabled to do
when the goods are sold inside the
state. 1t follows, as a matter of
course that this department desires
to see goods only purchased through
local dealers, SO that all consumers
will receive the protection afforded
by a strict enforcement of the pure
food laws.
The country merchant must do
his duty if he desires to complete
with the catalogue house. He must
beat him with his own weapon-ad-
vertising. He, too, must have
special prices on certain articles If
he wishes to hold the home trade.
GrOcers and country merchants who
think they are so located that they
cannot advertise successfully should
study the subject Of advertising.
There is probably no store, city or
country, whose business could not
be advertised successfully if the
proprietor only knew how and has
nerve and patience to do it. There
are a few country merchants in re-
mote localities who have mastered
advertising SO successfully that mail
order competition does not bother
them. This idea that you have
lived SO long in town that every
body knows you and you don't need
to advertise IS a mistake. This very
Indifference to advertising, indiffer-
ence to doing business the way bust
ness is done in this day and age,
is what has enabled the mail order
houses to grow from mere nothing
concerns.
The merchant who can convince
the people Of his section and keep
them convinced that his store is the
best place to buy this and that article
will not lose trade to the mail order
house. Of course, he cannot afford
to get out catalogue as thick as
Bible, but he can keep an adve1 tiye-
ment in his local papers and see
that it is changed every week, thus
keeping new bargains continually
before the public. He should also
have mailing list and send out a
circular letter at least once a month.
Nothing is more discouraging
than beginning an advertising cam
paign. Results are almost invariably
slow at first. 1t takes pluck-you
must keep at it and master it. The
mail order houses get trade because
they go fishing for it-and you, Mr..
Country Merchant, can get it, too.
Will you go fishing for it?
Don't look upon your country
newspaper as an object of charity.
There is not single country news
paper in the state, with a general
circulation, which is not able to
give full value for money received.
The country paper can help you
solve this question if you will give
them chance.

CaIifornia's Salt.

A great California industry is the
manufacture of salt from sea water.
In Alameda county 100000 tons were
produced last year. Only a few years
ago the state imported all its salt
Now it produces enough for its own
use-which is enormous, owing to the
fisheries and packing houses-and ex-
ports large quantities as well.

NATURE IN MAY.

Spring time is time of rejoicing.
All nations seem to rejoice. Spring
is the time for high hopes and ex-
tensive plans Vegetation awakes
as from a sleep. The birds and
animals are happy that winter is
over. AS we look over the landscape
we see changes from day to day.
This spring has been rather cool but
small grain is looking fine. The
apple trees are putting forth their
buds and blossoms and plum trees
decked out like a bride and filing
the air with sweet perfume. The
maple trees are actually bending
under the weight of their millions
of seeds. Flowers everywhere are
bursting out in all the various colors.
They seem to be thankful that they
are able to break their winter bond
age. The squirrels not to be be
hind time are out enjoying the
warm weather. The frisky lambs
are jumping and skipping around.
Tt is a pretty sight to see a flock of
them at play. We denizens of the
towns who have not got in touch
with nature this spring! Lay aside
your cares. Come and ramble some
warm day on the banks of the
silvery streams of Old Grant coun-
ty and learn what enjoyment is.
You know but little of what nature
is doing. She is busy everywhere.
The force pumps are pumping the
sap into the smallest twigs. We
cannot see how nature acts but we
can see results. If you are a student
study nature. If you are tired take
natures rest If you are worried
lay aside your cares. Mother Earth
and Dame Nature are excellent
nurses. Try them. You can see
the beautiful swamp black bird
with its handsome plumage and
the white sea gulls and the meadow
lark singing his song of praise The
quail also whistling the call to his
mate and the bluebird and the robin
and host Of others. I cannot en-
umerate all the interesting things
you can see in one day. You can
probably get a breath Of air from
the newly plowed field which is
specific remedy in some diseases.
And if you have time to spend
more than one day you can find
something new and interesting
every day-so you will feel that
your time was we'll spent and you
will return to your home invigorat-
ed and refreshed by your outing.
The farmer with the rest of the
world IS rejoicing in the spring and
the prospect of warmer weather
and plentiful showers. AS you ride
along notice the farmers faith in
scattering thousands of dollars
worth Of costly seed on the ground
expecting a good harvest. He plows
and harrows and sorts or tests his
seed corn. Next week you will hear
the click Of the cornplanter which
shows his faith in the promise that
the seed will yield a bountiful
harvest. He works early and late
all summer 10 the firm faith that
the corn will spring up and grow
into large golden ears. The merchant
and ali classes of business men re-
joice in the spring as a release from
the close confinement Of winter.
And as the railroads and factories
are all dependent on the farmer
they rejoice with him in the pros
pect of a bountiful harvest.

At last the insurance scandal has
been checked by the strong arm of

greeS at harrington on the 18th, ana
the lowest minimum temperature was
49 degrees at Bowman and Trial on
the 18th. The mean temperature for
the week was slightly above normal
for the same period. There were
numerous complaints Of too cool
nights early in the week, but the
night temperatures were more fav-
orable during the last four days.
The weeks rainfall was very light
and confined to the northern and
southwestern border counties, and it
was not general even in those Sec
tions. The amounts varied from
trace of rain to 0.S0 of an inch the
latter at Allendale, Barnwell County.
In those parts of the State where no
rain fell the soil has become very
dry, as the prevailing low relative
humidity and frequent fresh winds
evaporated the surface moisture
quickly. although the lack of mois-
ture is as yet, not sufficiently harmful
to be called a drought. Aside from
the deficiency in rainfall, there were
no damaging weather conditions what
ever during the week. The sky was
overcast as the week ended.
