TRADE MORALS

The merchant who builds up
a recognized place in the public
mind by constant advertising
has an asset that cut-throat
prices can't touch.
Your newspaper ad is an ex-
tension of your show window.
Remember to keep both dressed
up neatly.
A poor advertising policy is
better than no advertising pol
icy at all. Don't forget that.
Hunt up your newspaper man
and tell him what you want in
his advertising pages. Don't
wait until he comes to you and
tells you what you ought to do.
The advertisement that tells
the truth is the only kind that
you ought to ask your friends
to read.
Have something to say to the
public and say it. That is the
only secret there is to success
full advertising.
It takes a good merchant to
be good advertiser. The pub
lie knows that and is right in
assuming that the best adver-
tiser is the best merchant
Advertising is too blamed
expensive for me-" a merchant
says. He is right, if he expects
to pay for it with pennies. The
big advertiser keeps his eye on
the business advertising brings
while the little fellow often sees
only what it costs.

Advertising

BUSINESS MEN OF TWO KINDS
Good Advertising Means More
Than Newspaper Publicity.

AS q rule, II a newspaper prints a
talk on advertising, the reader takes
1t for granted the newspaper is boost
ing its own wares, its advertising
space. Newspaper advertising, al
though the most far reaching, is not
the only successful means Of adver-
tising and the subject of advertising
ones business can be profitably dis
cussed without laying too much stress
on the newspapers as the proper me-
dunn.
Over fifty per cent. of the business
enterprises started in this country fail.
This assertion may seem astounding.
but look back over the history Of near
ly any city for the past five years.
AS you go down the street try to re-
member what business occupied this
and that room a few years ago. You
will be astonished by the results Of
your investigation.
OF those business establishments
tf at manage to survive only about half
do q really profitable business. This
does not mean that business has been
slack. It simply means that business
men, like those of all other cities. are
divided into two classes. the drones
Al, d the workers. The workers place
is known throughout the country,
whereas the drone's place of business
is known to only a few friends of the
owner. The live business man has
neat display window. well lighted. and
keeps the freshest stock on display
there. When you come inside the door
you will find everything neat. 1t does
not cost money to keep the place look
ing spick and span-just little work.
When he shows you his stock you are
convinced that his window display and
his newspaper assertions have not lied
to you, and you trust him. Also, his
service is of the best. His clerks are
we'll dressed and courteous. He pays
them good salaries for he can afford to
do so. You see this merchants name
on bill boards throughout the county,
he sends you letter every now and
then calling attention to his stock In
trade and every day he tells you his
story in neat looking newspaper ad-
vertisement.
The drone, on the other hand, al
though he may be able to make liv-
ing, records no growth in his business
as the years go on. His display win
dow is dusty and the goods he dis.
plays have been seen there for
months. His store is dark and has
hardly enough business to keep one
clerk active. Outside the name on the
front, you know nothing about his
business. He may have many things
that you want, but he has never told
you so, for advertising costs too much,
hence he has not got your trade and
has but little chance of getting it. He
may spend dollar or two now and
then on a newspaper ad. but if his
store is not filled with customers the
next day he tells you that he can see
no good in advertising.
John Wanamaker took in $2467 on
his first day in business. He kept the
CT cents and spent the balance in ad-
verifying the next day. Wanamaker
was no reckless schemer. He simply
had enough business acumen to real
ize that you cannot get business with
out publicity.

NAMES FOR FARMS,

The Farm Journal urges every far
mer TO name his farm something. The
better the name, the closer its appli-
cation to nature and use OF the land,
the better. but name it something at
all events. Some families have had
the instinct. taste, judgment, or
what ever else one may call it, 10
have given IL decided distinction in
the country of its location. The good
habit has made only slow growth in
this state. but it has now developed
to such an extent that farm journals
are urging it as a matter of course.
There is something in name and
often great deal in 1t. 1t adds SO
much to the pleasure of summer
homes, camps in the wilderness and
even TO city houses that many adopt
names for them until the charm of
personality is added to the affection
that is natural to such place. When
naming. and 1t is farm besides. he
begins to think Of making it worthy
OF the name. So he improves 1t with
good heart and does a thousand
things for its betterment while work.
ing it as means Of livelihood, bust
ness proposition.
The good old southern custom, not.
ably of early and late Virginia, is
creeping north. It's advance should be
welcomed for more reasons than can
be readily set down here. 1t will be a
blessed thing for the United States
by and by, when the farm and farm
life are accorded the right place IN
the honor and esteem of the nation
that belong to them, and must be
maintained. II the healthy life of the
people is to continue indefinitely.

they are not to be thought Of as
forming any important part Of high
school commencement, They can't
wear dresses, the cost of which
mammals may talk about to the
neighbors. They do not write their
homilies on life on scented note pa

about the boy at high school COM

Cedar Rapids Republican: Eighty

out OF Iowa, taking with them every.
thing that they had, to try their luck
In the northwest. They have tried
that luck ana they have not found II
at all what they had been told It
would be. We take it that they are
now glad to find their way back into
good old Iowa, where the crops grow
