32O-Acre fiomesteads

The enlarged homestead laws per-
mits the entry by one person OF 32O
acres Of government land in the arid
states which is not, in the under
standing Of the government, susceptl-
BILE of irrigation. AS under the original
l6O-acre homestead law, this land can
be acquired by the settler from Uncle
Sam free OF cost on compliance with
the regulations requiring a residence
and cultivation. The determination OF
what lands are subject to these double
sized homesteads devolves upon the
secretary Of the interior, and since the
passage Of the act in February, 1909,
100, 254,4os acres have been designat-
ed by him as subject to entry in units
of 800 cares. Every month additional
lands are thus designated, 90,242
acres having been added to the total in
June.

The Man Who Advertises

The man who advertises for your trade
is the one who appreciates it and is the
one who will put himself to trouble and
expense to please you; he will put en-
ergy and thought into his business and
study the needs and fancies Of the trade
and try to please and give you an hon
est deal; but the man who will not adj
vertise for your trade does not show
proper appreciation of it. He will not
put himself to any trouble or expense
that he can possibly avoid to please
you and to get what you ought to have.
If he is too stingy to advertise he is
usually to close to give you a square
deal. The man who advertises for
your trade should get your patronage,
because he has put himself to trouble
and expense to please you. He there
fore has things up-to-date and you need
not be afraid to patronize him.

fro BE Continued
Country Papers

The value OF the papers Of the coun-
try towns in the up-building of the
state cannot be over-estimated. Work
that the editors of these papers have
done and are doing is always for the
good Of the state, and their papers de-
serve the heartiest support of the local
dealers. Not only does the merchants
prosperity depend upon his support Of
the local paper, but the prosperity of
the town also. The character OF town
is generally judged by the appearance
of its news sheet. The class OF adver-
tisements the local paper carries shows
the quality of the business men of the
town. If the merchant does not pat
ronize his own paper he cannot expect
to make much Roadway himself, or that
his town will take the position among
other towns which it should. 1t does
not pay dealer to be stingy with his
local paper, but it is too true that many
of them are. Owing to the non-support
Of the merchant, the editors of many
of the country papers are beginning to
exhibit feeling OF friendliness towards
the mail order houses, which readily
find profitable returns from live adver-
Using. Unless the country merchant
learns to use the advantages he has in
local paper, he must not be surprised to
find the cash of his community going
to houses in other states who give the
support in advertising locally withheld.
When this happens the dealer will per-
haps wake up, but too late. 1t is sur
prising how Indifferent some of the
country tradesmen appear to be to ad-
vertising in the home paper. This at
titude is not only to his loss but det-
riment to the town. Thousands Of
dollars are being sent out every day
from the country towns and cities to
mail order houses, simply because the
merchant will not adopt the same bus
mess plan those houses do. He seems
to think that because he is acquainted
with everybody in the town and that
everybody knows him, they ought to
know what he has for sale and his
prices. But they don't. People re-
ceive the mail order catalogue, see
goods attractively described and priced,
and draw the conclusion that the home
dealer does not carry the goods be-
cause he has never said anything about
them in his local paper. For the sake
OF his own business prosperity and that
OF his town the home merchant should
literally patronize his home paper, the
editor OF which is so Loyalty helping to
build up the town. It will prove profit
able to all concerned. Trade Register.
