Sugar RefineEiss Affected.

Sugar retiners of this State, and
in Fact the whole country, are be-
tween the "devil and tire deep
blue sea" as u result of the pure
food laws on the one side and pro-
hibition on the other, and sugar
may any day take an upward jump
and ftuctuate thereafter like coal
in the winter time.
Under the new pure food laws
it is illegal to use sulphur in clsr-
flying molasses, except as provM-
ed for the crop of l9O7-0S Ivy II
special ruling. The hrge refiners
have, however, passetf up the mo-
lasses and IRE extracting the en-
tire sugar content from the caIar,

Prohibition i'm the South where
Il great quantity of refining is done
has made an ever lessening de-
mand for alcohol and rum and
thereby "a decrease in the value oi
the sugar hy-products. This meats
that the refiner will have to- make
up IN an INCREASED price for sugar
that which he loses by not being

ducts, or ia utker words he will
have soadd to the present price

reasonable necessity of trade and

The Question Is nowGn stage
where the railway interests frank

pace with the tremendous volume
of freight offerings and whether
that confession was made willing
ly or grudciwly is not til the
present purpose. Bnt it may not
be amISs to suggest that the eyes
of the management of the FAIL

that unless inland waterways are
improved to navigabte stages snf-
ficient tn bear their just proper
tion of freight offerings, the man

1t is fact which producer and
consumer have appreciated for
years, to their great injury. But
pablic sentiment has, mt last,
been aroused to the absolute ne
cessity for waterway improvement
as the one practical solution Of
the problem of transportation and
means of transportation corIsti-
tute the very foundation and Cap
stone of prosperous conditions.
That public sentiment has been
aroused is Il fact for congratulate
ton. But it wonld be folly to
allow the fact To breed Overcotrts-
dence or to call q halt, even for n
day, in preparing to harvest the
results of the demand for water.
Way Improvement. Great causes
require constant, persistent ard
Impelling actiop. It's important
TO arouse public sentiment. 1t is
more important to Quicken that
sentiment into action by urging
on Congress the duty it owes to
public no less than to- private in
terests To inaugurate, during the
present session, II policy Of annual
appropriations, Adequate, iE

fully. The Work of urging on
Representatives and Senator'S the
duty of completing the work of

Congress should begin at once and
be strong and unmlstakable in it's

DULL BUSINESS PERIODS
st. Paul Business Man Gives Whole
some Advice as to Use Of
Printets Ink.

St. Paul Dispatch: I'VE con
tinue to do things ridiculous things
because our fathers did Them"
remarked a man today, and we go
on doing them year after year with
out asking ourselves why we do so.
A case in point is the matter of ad-
vertising, which today is thing of
necessity in the business world. If
you will notice it you will find that
the average business man in periods
of dizziness and financial depression
begins to retrench In the matter of
his expense account by curtailing
his advertising. He does it because
his father did it and because he
argues that he can lop it off and
restore it again with less inconveni-
ence than he can other expenses.
But if he will think for moment
and weigh the matter as cold
business proposition invol v in g
dollars and cents he is bound to
admit his retrenchment had best
begin at another point.
IF advertising is good business
practice at any time surely it is
most valuable when the people are
buying least, for if it's object is to
attract the purchaser and get him
into the store, naturally there must
be greater effort expended in that
direction when the public is buying
least. No matter how severe per-
iods of depression are, and how
stringent the money market may be,
people will spend what they must,
and naturally they are in such times
more quickly attracted by the offer
ings of advertisers, as they are
eager to have their expenditures
bring the best results.
It is permissible to liken the
public we are all included in
the designation in flush times to
lake crowded with hungry fish. Fish

''Bi|I" Wilson's New One.

Our friend M. F. Wilson attended
divine service in town Sunday and
incidentally told the following g new
one::''
Knew druggist in Minneapolis
who was the limit. One day the
clerk came to this guy, and said:
What shall I do with this batch of
hair tonic? Everybody brings it
back and says it's no good.' 'How's
our line of tooth wash?" asks the
druggist. We've got about 500
bottles overstock.' Then put some
burnt sienna in that hair tonic and
stick on those new piano polish
labels.'''
The Bemidji daily pioneer. [volume] (Bemidji, Minn.) 1904-1971, 1908-03-03

under these conditions bite at any
old bait. but when they begin to be
decimated in numbers, rendering
the natural and usual food of the
lake sufficient for them, they grow
wary of unwonted morsels provided
by the fishermen and the latter are
forced to prepare more select bait
and proceed more skillfully in order
to coax them to the concealed hook.
In this illustration, of course, I
do not mean to convey the idea that
the business man has other than the
hook of legitimate profit in his offer
ings, but the illustration is analogous
to the situation. In flush times the
purchaser is not so discriminative in
his expenditures as he is forced to
be in periods of depression, and to
my view it would be the part of
sound sense and good judgment for
the business man to increase rather
than curtail his advertising when
period of dullness sets in.
1t is hard to get away from Gus
tom, but sooner or later we find out
new things and methods, and when
we adopt them and secure good
results we look back with wonder at
how we held so long to the old with
out thinking out the new. It will
be SO in this matter of advertising in
a few years, and, of course, the first
