spoken to that young ass. The mer- chant hit the table one frightful blow with his fist as he read: ITO tell you the truth we have lot of rotten rain coats we've got to get rid of" He pounded the table again and his coffee cup fell to the floor and was shattered. He did not mind, for he was shrieking as he read on, .Theyre shop worn and some of them are cracked and we'll sell them for little or nothing" He dashed the paper down and stamped on 1t. Then he picked 1t up again and swore as he read little more, There are some good ones In the lot, but if we can't sell them we might as well dump them in the river.&
 Usually the big merchant did not get to his office until 1925 a. m. That morning he arrived at $50, so eager was he to discharge that fool from his employment. He was red of face and as savage as a bear when he removed his hat and coat. Then he started for the advertising managers room. En route he met one of the junior partners.
 "Did you know about the raincoats?' inquired the junior.
 "Know!" shouted the big merchant. Know! I'm on my way to drive the rascal out of my place. I never was more outraged in my life"
 The juniors eyes opened wide. Then you haven't heard,'' said he. There was the biggest crowd in the raincoat de- partment we ever had. Every raincoat was sold within 30 minutes of opening this morning. Never saw such rush That ad. certainly was wonder Ii seemed to please the people by it's abso- lutely frankness."
 The big merchant gasped. After breathing hard for few more times he decided he would go and see wha was going on in the raineoat depart ment He remained there a short tim' and then returned to his office and sen for the advertising man.

the brain of the s1200 year postInan. Ths man or woman who coins phrase that aids in marketing product, that increases the production of an industry or that creates demand for any par ticular article can claim rich reward. Nicholson, the s1200 a year postman, no longer wears uniform of gray and de- liVers the mall in the advertising dis trict along Park Row and upper Mas sau street. His regular salary now is approximately as much per month as it used to be per year, for he is one of the high priced mon of the greatest advertising agencies in America. Dozens and dozens of catchy phrases that came from him and are used by big adver- tisers are familiar to all the people.
 The case of Nicholson Is exceptional. Most men with quick minds hnd them- selves earlier than Nicholson did espe cially if they are in the advertising field or have a bent for advertising. This is an age of advertising. Never was printing ink used more freely. Never were the rewards to the successful writers of advertisements and the en- gineers of successful advertising cam paigns greater. Advertising is not an exact science and probably never will be- Those who think they know the most and have the largest experience sometimes know the least. There is one instance of this that illustrates the fact admira bly, One of the big mer- chants of New York noted for his bluntness of speech and his temper walked into his advertising managers office to give some orders about the next days announcement. The adver- tising manager was III. A young man recently employed was in his place.

 The young man smiled and assured the merchant he knew exactly how tC 1 do it.
 The next morning when the big mer- chant opened his paper to read the most important news, which, of course was his advertisement, he nearly had ( | fit. There in a big blackface type was the raincoat ad. exactly as he had

The government has 550 agents in the cot ton belt, and more than 75,OO0 demonstra- tion farms, upon which the planters, un- der the weekly direction of these agents and their assistants, are raising cotton after government methods. In the boil weevil region there are county clubs of such farmers, and the stories of the sue cess of their members have taken the place of politics as topic of conversa- tion.
 The government agent selects as fai as possible, the best farmers and asks them to plant out an acre of cotton at some conspicuous place on his es- tate It is, If possible, at crossroads or at least near some road so that the people may see the results as they SC by. A sign marking the spot as a government farm Is put up, and this place is visited by the farmers for miles around and the operations carefully watched. At the start the farmers are always skeptical and it is difficult to get them to make the experiment. After the first year, however, they are anx- iol,s to try, and the demonstration farms multiply, In hundreds of counties this work has rev6lutionized the methods of farming, and men who were prac- tically bankrupt have become rich. The deposits in the savings banks have in creased and new banks are being start ed in nearly all such regions.
 The credit system Is on the decline The planters are raising their own sup plies and with many of them the cot ton receipts are almost all clear gain F A Talk With Government Agents
 While at the department Of agrlcul- turo today I had a long talk with two of Uncle Sam's agents who have been in charge of this co-operative demon stration farm work for the bureau oi plant industry of the department Of az riculture. Each has his own territory through which he moves about iron state to state and county to county experimenting the demonstrators ano their hundreds of agents. These men are w. B. Mercier and Fl. F. Savely bof| of Mississippi. They tell me that they are raising more cotton than eyer be- fore in the sections where the demon stration work is and that last year or 5000 acres which were cultivated un- der such directions total of 72,O00,00( pounds of seed cotton was raised, mak- ing an average of 860 pounds to the acre. In North Carolina where there

aging the states east of that river. It is beginning to lay waste southern Ala bama and 1t will soon be eating the best cotton growing regions of Georgia, Ala bama and Florida, from where It will go on into the Carolinas as well.
 The scientists tell me that 1t is bound to proceed and that some of the states which Hre yet free from it have been raising funds to fight 1t. South Carolina has already devoted slOO0o to getting ready for it: the Alabama legislature has set aside fund of s25,00O to teach the farmers how to fight it. and the general education board of New York is putting out through the agricultural department at Washington s15,OO0 this year to pre- pare Georgia against it's attacks.
 A Path of Ruin
 Until recently the path of this invad- ing army has been one of ruin to the planter It has depopulated the coun., ties, bankrupted business and sown sor- row and despair. A few years ago it was prophesied that 1t would blight our whole cotton crop and cause a loss to the coun- try of more than s200000,000 a year. As it is now, notwithstanding it's rayages, by the improved farming methods an equal amount of cotton has been raised; and last year our product was greater in quantity and money than ever before. Had there been no boil weeyil, and had tho same methods been used throughout the whole cotton belt, our crop would have been doubled and we should now be producing as much as 20,000,000 bales and upward a year. This is the estimate of the late Dr. Seaman Knapp, the father of the cooperative demonstration work of the agricultural department through out the south which has proved the sal vation of the country.
 Before Dr. Knapp and his agents had shown the planters what might be done in cotton raising, notwithstanding the weevil the farmers were in despair. They had been raising only cotton, and the weevil became the terror of millions. The planters thought it was impossible to fight it. and a man who had lost a big plantation said it was proof against any thing under the sun. At one of the con- ventions he said he had put a weevil in bottle of alcohol which was 95 per cent
