Brussels, July "a The close OF
King Leopo1ds long struggle to staVe
on annexation of the Congo to Bel
GUM and to retain his personal sover-
ignty over this rich and extensive Az
rican state, is foreshadowed in an
agreement reached July 18th, between
Belgium and the Congo government,
celebrating terms upon which the
Congo Free States shall pass into the
possession of Belgium.
3 This transfer viii mark an import
ant epoch for the Congo, as hereto
fore the entire conduct of affairs,
civil and military, has been under the
personal direction Of King Leopold
and the Cabinet Of Congo officers en-
tirely separate from, and Independent
of Belgium, whereas the new regula-f
tons will make the Belgium govern
ment, instead of the king, individually
responsible for the conduct Of Congo
affairs The British and American
governments have favored placing this
government responsibility on Belgium
as British officials have made point:
that there was great difficulty in deal
ing with Congo, in view of its anomal-
GUS position as personal dependency
of the king, whereas foreign govern
ments could deal with it through usu-
al diplomatic channels if the Belgium
government assumed responsibility.
The indications are that the whole
subject will be threshed out in palia-
ment during the fall and that January
or February, 1908, will see the Congo
Free State colony of Belgium, in.
stead of the personal dependency of
King Leopold. "a

made for the first market day which.
Bismarck has ever known next sat

ne gentlemen present were en-
thusiastic on the subject and it will
be no fault Of theirs if the market
days are not a success.
Among the things done was a de-
cision that o ntne first market day
the club will pay the expenses of the
auctioneer so that whatever goods
are sold for farmers by him on that
day win be without cost to the seller.
This first day will be one for learn

pie and they will size up the needs Of
the Market Days and see that every
thing is done that will go to make
these events a success and pleasant

will be progressive, enterprising and
public-spirite to the extent of a lit
tie, not very valuable time, and a.
few paltry dollars, they can, with
the assistance Of a few boosters,
work wonders.
What verndaIe Has Done.
This is the second year this town
has held regular monthly market
day. sales, beginning in April and
ending in October or November. Last
year we met with only moderate sue
cess, but we thought we were doing
pretty well at the time and thus far
we have never had failure, no mat
ter what the weather conditions.
Profting by experience, our people
adopted a number of new features
this season, and the four meetings
we have already held have been hum
mers, although the weather during
the April and May meetings was
very disagreeable. VIZ II
The town has been taxed to the
limit in caring for the crowds that
have been attracted by the induce
ments offered by business men. This
scheme has advertised the town and
thus has proved beneficial to every
body interested. It makes an era
Of good feeling between town and
country. 1t is an advantage to The
farmer, because he gets as good bar
gains in any line as other towns Of
fer, and special bargains in certain
lines, where he receives more than
his moneys worth, and it enables
him to sell his cattle, hogs, horses
or any other produce without charge.
It has brought to the town thou
sands of dollars Of trade that would
have gone elsewhere but for the en-
terprise of business men.
The farmer sells his wares under
the free auction feature and the
merchant sells his, the result being
business for all parties. The average
sales of the four leading firms, as
nearly as can be determined, are
81. 800. The total cost runs from $35
to $50. At our last sale. however,
we expended S125. This was on
June 20, the Saturday before the
Fourth, and few extras were
thrown In, including a brass band
and a ball game. 3....
The first move is to call q meeting,
seeing the business men personally,
and if some Of the men whom you
most need are not present land the

counts authorized the local bankers
to charge the amount to their sac-
count each month. This arrangement
saves lot of labor as the subscrip-
ton paper is circulated but once,
and the collection of the funds month
" is made easy, taking whole lot
of unnecessary work off the commit
tees hands.
= 1t is sometimes rather difficult
proposition to equalize this matter of
subscriptions, but by the exercise Of
patience and tact on the part of the
committee the difficulty can usually
be overcome. /. 81 . 5
Getting up the Program.
With tAs money in sight, it is in
order to prepare a program for the
days doings. This program should
be changed from meeting to meet
ing, in some respects at least, and in
order that those interested may get
an idea Of our plan, we herewith
submit the circular sent out for the
meeting held June % last. $ "a
AS to Advertising.
Heretofore we have been content
to put notices in the local paper and
tack up few large posters, but our
editor, II. NJ. Henderson, OF. the vern-
dale Sun, suggested that we cut out
the posters and instead print each
month a circular letter containing
program and list of bargains and
mail one to each farmer receiving
mail at the local office and on all the
r. F. D. routes touching territory
within reach if Verndale. This was
happy thought and has worked
admirably. This appeals to the
farmer as a personal invitation to be
present and it is SO meant. The
farmers have. become deeply inter
ested in this matter, and if by mis-
take one of them happens to be over
looked he. goes right up in the air
and we have to go after him with a
balloon. This, with good notice in
the local paper together with what
agitating the town people can do, if
they willard they should be
I touched up along this line-is all that
is necessary in the way of advertis-
ing. In our experience the "person-
al letter" scheme knocks all other
forms of advertising silly. 4, II. T..
Some of the Features.
Special bargains. The merchants
cut prices on these days on some
certain line, soap, coffee. tea, oil,
sugar, shoes, dry goods, etc. s.
> Now, it is very essential that these
bargains be real and not imaginary.
The merchant must, be prepared to
do just what he advertises, to do and
must have on hand liberal supply
of the article. If a farmers wife
calls on Mr.. Jones about 10 a. m. for
soap. and the proprietor looks very
sorry and Informs her he is just out,
