LONDON, Sept 15.-The alarming

According to Warren w. Hnditch. Of

Hilditch made a number Of experiments.

could get from railroad, trolley. rheaIer
ticket offices, drug stores and other de
pOsitarieS OF sOiled currency. In sum

study OF the subject Is that money con-

BIRDS PLUMAGE
CAUSES PESTILENCE

An argument lately advanced Eainst
the wearing by women OF the plum
age of certain birds makes a strong
appeal 10 philanthrOpiC feeling, says
LeSue'S Weekly. The mara bOu StOrks
Of India are that counJTy'S most in
dustriOuS and useful sCayen gers. The
good work I'm street cleaning done by
these birds is to a large degree pre-
Servatiye OF the health OF the people
in the cities Of India. Conditions in
those towns are nOtOriOusIy unSani-
IaTy. and under present CirCUm-
stances II is necessary that the mara
bous be allowed to increase, rather
than be diminished IN number. The
popularity OF the feathers for the
making Of bOas FOR women has caused
havoc among the marabOus. During
the past two winters vast mum bers OF
the birds have been killed for the
sake Of their plumage, so that the
species has been threatened with eX-
termination Should this actually
happen, the death rate from fever in
summer IL India would mount with
great rapidity.

Insurina The Trade.

The Chicago Tribune has theory
of advertising which contains both
philosophy and truth. The Tribune
breaches from this text: Have you
ever considered an advertising cam
paign from the standpoint of an in
surance policy?"
The idea is that the cost of adver-
Using is the premium" which you pay
to insure yourself against a loss OF
business, failing off of your trade,
which is your chief asset. This outlay
is smaller relatively than the pre-
MUM you pay for insurance against
fire or burglars or tornadoes, consid-
ering the risk. And besides the pro-
lection your policy pays dividends in
the form of an Increase of business.
1t is not necessary any more to ar
que the value of advertising to BUSH
ness man of the twentieth century;
that is too much like debating the
question whether it is a good thing
for an animal to breathe. But the
insurance" conception of it is both
interesting and true. The only differ
ence is this: A man might carry no
fire insurance and still come thru
without loss by fire; whereas the bus

ing insurance against the loss OF

Cultivate Often.
Northwestern Agriculturist.)

Northwestern hgriculturist.)
Crops like corn and potatoes give
the farmer a great opportunity not
only to clean the land but to release
plant food as we'll for the succeeding
crops While cultivating the corn and
potatoes to make a better mechanical
condition of the soil, kill weeds = and
retain moisture, we are also (uncon-
sciously perhaps), just giving that
field the very best management posi-
BILE to fit it for the following grain
crop The best time to cultivate to
preserve moisture is before the ground
gets hard or crusted. and the best time
to cultivate to kill weeds is just before
the weed comes out of the ground. To
do this means frequent cultivation. Do
not think you can catch up, after neg
lecting a field, by deep cultivation. Gull
tivate often and you will! have no eX-
cuse for deep cultivation. The deep Gull
tivaton should be done before the crop
is planted. On most farms cultivation
stops far too early. 1t should be car
ried up we'll into July to get the most
out of it. Often the last cultivation
pays the best.

The Average Merchant Wastes Too
Much Time Soliciting.
l was buying a cigar last week when
a man dropped into the shop and after
making a purchase told the proprietor
that he had started, a clothes shop
around the corner and quoted him
prices, with the assurance of best gar
ments and terms
After he left the cigar man turned
to me and said:
"Enterprising fellow, that. he'll get
along"
thermore, I'll wager you that he hasn't
the sort of clothes shop that will en-
able him to-
what made you think that" quer-
led the man behind the counter.
His ideas are wrong" | explained;
he's relying upon word of mouth pub
liclty to build up his business, and he
can't interview enough individuals to
compete with merchant who has
sense enough to say the same things
he told you to hundred thousand
men while he is telling it to one. Be-
sides, his method of advertising is too
expensive. Suppose he sees a hun
dred persons every day. First of all,
he is robbing his business of it's nee
essary direction, and besides, he is
spending too much to reach every man
he solicits."
What makes you say that?'
"Well, as the proprietor of clothes
shop his own time is so valuable that
| am very conservative in my esti-
mate when l put the cost of his So
Letting at cents head.
Now If he We're really able and
clever he would discover that he can
talk to hundreds of thousands of peo-
pie at a tenth of a cent per individual.
There is not a newspaper in Chicago,
the advertising rate of which is $1.O0
per thousand circulation, for space
big enough in which to display what
he said to you"
81 never looked at it that way"
said the cigar man.
It's only "the man who hasn't
looked at 1t that way" who hesitates
for an instant over the advisability
and proiitableness Of newspaper pub
licity.
Newspaper advertising is the cheap
est channel of communication ever
established by man. A thousand let
tiers with one cent stamps will easily
cost fifteen dollars and not one en-
velope in, ten will be opened because
the very postage is an invitation to
the waste basket.
If there were anything cheaper rest
assured that the greatest merchants
in America would not spend individual
sums ranging up to half million
dollars a year and over in this form
of attracting trade. Herbert Kauf-

Suckers and Feeders.

There are some orders lying around,
but the assortment is not sufficiently
attractive to hold country buyers on the
ground. Prices are about steady, but
with such a meagre supply the market
is hard to quote, and it is equally I'M
certain as to what kind of a market
it would have been with a liberal run.
The kind of strong-weight choice
feeders worth SIS or better are hard
to find. bur whenever a load appears it
is taken care of. The country is under
no necessity to dispose of anything
with such an abundance of grass, and
small volume of trade is to be eX-
pected until the corn crop prospects
take shape. Most Of the stuff going
out is taken east and consists of s4m
AS stockers weighing 700 and 900
