THE EVENING NEWSPAPER.
Random Thoughts on the Gentle Ar
Of Advertising.

OF Advertising.
The evening paper has a place in
the home that no other paper can pos
sibly have. the evening means relax
alton, a cessation Of the work of the
day to most people; 1t is the time
when the family, one after the other
go through the home newspaper, scan
its columns, read the news Of the day;
discuss events and the advertising, for
the advertising, let IL be known is
now news matter of important char
acter.
So advertisers, the wise ones who
see that every dollar spent has the
motive Of endeavoring to bring other
dollars back, behind 1t, make first pro-
vision for the evening newspaper, 9TH
er appropriation being made solely on
the question of how much additional
can be spared as advertising outlay.
This statement can be easily verified
by referring to the large city dailies
where the evening papers carry the
large bulk OF department and other
store advertising.
Morning papers, very largely, gravi-
tate away from the home to the shop
or Office. The man OF the house. II
percnance they take morning paper
carries 1t off with him to his work.
He reads the morning paper. but ur
fortunately he is not the individual
the advertising is designed to attract,
for it is generally recognized nowadays
that the lady OF the house lie the one
who controls the bulk Of its expendI-
lures.
The trend of advertising thought ia
to use only these mediums which pro-
duce profitable results; not results
alone but profit. That the evening
paper does this most satisfactorily il
the reason the bulk OF newspaper ad-
vertising appropriations go to the
evening rather than morning paers.
Advertisers should keep this point
in mind at all times. NO other means
OF publicity equals the newspaper; no
newspaper reaches the home circle
like the evening paper. 1t Is obvious
then that the result seeking advertiser,
with the proof OF these facts constant
ly before him in reading the newspa-
pers generally, should place the great
bulk OF his advertising where It Ia
sure to bring results; in the evening
newspaper.

NOVEL TRANSPORTATION.

The sidewalks of New York have long
been famous in song, but Broadway is
about to have some sidewalks which
will be an engineering novelty-and
may solve the transportation problem
for congested Manhattan. These new
sidewalks are to move twelve miles an
hour, and will be underground.
AS an experiment it is likely that
Broadway between Fourteenth and
Forty second will be the location Of
the first movable platform, or walk.
Entrances to the platform will be SIM
liar to those of the present subways.
Passengers will be enabled to board
the twelve miles-an-hour platform by
means Of other platforms-which move
more slowly-and gradually give the
the regular travel platform. This will
be provided with seats and--because
of it's ceaseless, regular motion--will
be far more comfortable than the
crowded subway trains with their tire
some stops and waits.
At present subway locals are unable
to go more than twelve miles an hour
in rush hours, and can carry only a.
500 passengers an hour. The subway
expresses carry only $4,000 passengers
an hour. 1t is estimated that the NOV
ing platform to be established will
readily carry 7s.50O passengers an hour
and provide seats for all Of them
Surface cars are not able to proceed
over three miles an hour in New York
rush hours. Consequently, the pro-
jected moving platform would have
many advantages over the present
means Of transportation.

a Nav Kind Of Corn From China.

washington, Nov. IA small lot of
shelled corn, OF a kind that Is new TO
this country, was sent to the United
States department Of agriculture from
Shanghai, China, in 1908. and tested
the same season. 1t proved to have
qualities that may make 1t valuable in
breeding a corn adapted to the hot and
dry conditions Of the southwest. The
plants raised in the test averaged less
than feet In height, with an average
OF IL green leaves at the time Of tassel-
ing. The ears averaged 5x inches In
length and 4 1-s inches in greatest
circumference, with Is to Is rows OF
small grains On upper part of the
plant the leaves are all on one side OF
the stalk, instead of being arranged in
two rows on opposite Sides Besides
this, the upper leaves stand erect in
stead OF dropping, and the tips OF the
leaves are therefore above the top of
the tassal. The silks Of the ear are
produced at the point where the leaf
blade is joined to the leaf sheath, and
they appear before there is any sign
of an ear excepting a slight swelling.
This corn Is very different from any
that is now produced in America It's
peculiar value 10 that the erect ar
rangernent OF the leaves on one side
OF the stalk and the appearance OF the
silks in the angle where the lear blade
joins the sheath offer q protected place
in which pollen can settle and fertilize
the silks before the latter are ever ex-
posed to the air. This il an excellent
arrangement for preventing the driving
out of the silks before pollination.
while this corn may be OF little yalue
Itself, 1t IL likely that, by cross breed
ling these desirable qualities can be
impaired to larger corn, which will
thus be better adopted to the south
west
i The discovery OF this peculiar corn
in China suggests anew the idea that.
although America Ii the original home

have been taken to the eastern heuis-
phere long before he discovery of

HELP THE CHILDREN.

Friday, Nov. 10, 10 the date fixed by
Superintendent Hall Of the North Da-
kota Children's home for the collection
Of donations for that Institution. Form
erly it was the custom to receive these
on Thanksgiving. 1t was found this
interfered to slight degree with the
religious services and the festivities in
cident to the day. Superintendent Hall
then decided to fix the Friday before
Thanksgiving as the date.
The children's home is supported al
most entirely by contributions from
philanthropic and charitable people. It
| is operated at considerable cost and
the people of the state have always
cheerfully assisted in it's support.
The home has cared for hundreds OF
children, some of whom have grown To
manhood and womanhood. The great
majority Of the others have been hap
PLY placed in homes where they have
an opportunity to grow into useful
citizens.
The assistance rendered these little
ones-every movement to help the un-
fortunate waifs-ref1ects credit on the
donors. 1t is worthy cause--and the
people of the state will no doubt con.
tribute literally next Friday from theil
bountiful prosperity.
