ADVERTISING TALKS
WRITTEN By
WILLIAM &. FREEMAN

Just about this time OF
year a goodly number OF mer-
chants decide that they will
SAVE MONEY until the mid
die of September by NOT ad-
vertising.
Year after year, for nearly
twenty-six years, one OF the
hardest parts of my work as
an advertising man has ben to
CONVINCE the merchant
who wants to stop advertising
during the summer months
that he should never stop adj
vertising.
Ny average of success for
each year has not been more
than 400, and that is really
failure-but the 1910 of
doubling merchants who were
persuaded to have FAITH IN
THE VALUE OF ADVER-
Using in summer, fall, win
ter and spring months, have
been very successful, | am
glad to say.
' A man came into my office
the other day to talk with me
about ADVERTISING FURS
DURING THE SUMMER
MONTHS.
He wanted me to conduct
a campaign for him-said he
was convinced that it would
pay-that he believed a cam
paign advertising furS ALL
THE YEAR ROUND would
enable a retailer to sell fur
garments at an average lower
price, because he would do
taller would not he compelled
10 sell at all enormous profit
for a short winter season,
thereby minimizing the num-
her of people that buy furs-
that he believed a big fur husi.

BLACK SNAKE STORY.
Man Kills the Reptile After 1t Had Fought and Despatched a Rattler in Horses Manager.

Snake stories are most always looked upon with suspicion, but this one is vouched for by a reputable citi- zen Of Higganum, where it occurred. It IS related that William Spencer, who conducts market and employees two horses to deliver his goods, went to the barn a day or so ago to feed his horse and was mortified to find a rattle snake in the manger. MT. Spencer was not inclined to mix ur with the rattler. and consulted with others as to the best way to get him out of the manager. Someone suggest ed that if a black snake was put in the manager with the rattler, the Gblack snake would despatch his dangerous foe. One man volunteered to go to the meadows on the east side of the river where black snakes have been plentiful from time immemoriaI and get one. He returned in less than an hour with black snake six feet long in bag anI dumped him in with the rattler A battle royal ensued, as was predicted, the black snake killing his adversary. There was no trouble in getting rid of the black which re- ceived as a reward a blow that also despatched him.

BREAD WITHOUT FLOUR.
French Machine Transforms the
 Wheat Directly Into Dough-

In France bread has been made without flour in machine that trans forms the wheat directly into dough. This machine shows a large screw turning loosely in case. on the inner surface of which is screw thread running in an opposite direction.
 Between the main threads on the cylinder are smaller threads and the depth of the groove becomes progress sively smaller from one end to the other so that it will hold the entire wheat grain as it enters the machine, a the same time accommodating only the pulverized wheat at the exit.
 The wheat is prepared by thor ough washing, after which operation, says Harper's Weekly. about a pint of tepid water to a pound of grain is added, the whole mixture being al lowed to stand some six hours. Then the grains of wheat have swollen to twice their ordinary size.
 The mixture is then treated with yeast and salt and is poured into the machine It falls between the threads of the moving screw and of the fixed contrary screw. which simultaneously crush the envelope and body of the grain, making of them a homogene- ous mixture that forms a smooth paste.
 Bread made by this process con tains succession of holes whose size increases as they approach the crust. which is thin. The odor given off is said to- be especially agreeable.

FAIR GROUNDS IMPROVEMENT. Rockville Association to Turn Old Ex- hibition Hall into Cattle Barn,

The improvements at the Fair Grounds have been begun, the Rock vile association having awarded the contract for the work
 The old Exhibition hall is to be con- yerted into a cattle barn, where quar- ters will be provided for 125 head of stock. This will enable the exhib- itors to leave their cattle on the grounds two days, instead of one day, as before, thereby providing oppor- tunity for lovers of cattle who cannot attend on the second day to see them on the third. This will be much ap- preciated.
 Last year the horse stables proved most inadequate for the large number of racers entered, and it became inn perative to provide additional accom- modations. This is to be done by the erection of a new barn the same size as that built a few years ago.
 Then the graudstand facilities are to be increased by an ample addition to the bleachers, thus providing seat ing accommodation for at least 500 more people than can be seated in the present stand and bleachers.-Rock- vile Journal.

ANNOUNCEMENTS
BREED THEATER.

Cattle Herders Romance is the motion picture attraction at the Breed thcater today, and tells of a young foreman Of a ranch eloping with the ranch owners daughter. They adjourn to d nearby cabin in the mountain where they live as brother and sister, to await forgiveness from the girls father. One day a passing cowboy is injured as he passes the cabin, where he is taken and cared for by the secret bride. Believing slie is the sis ter of the host he makes amorous ad- vances to the girl and not being able to explain that she is the wife of the Samaritan the matters become very complex. Finally the cowboy is re- quested to leave, and this arouses his desire for revenge, and hearing that the girls father has offered a reward for the return of his daughter seeks this opportunity of exposing the where abouts of the bride. Telling the sher if his experience, the sheriff promptly hastens to the cabin with a note from the father. but just what the note con- tains would spoil the story. so the splendid film must be seen to be appre- ciated.
 The powerful story of the Biograph entitled The Thief and the Girl, holds the undivided attention of the audience from start to finish, equalled only by the great drama. The Craven Heart.

TWENTY-E FIVE PERMITS
Issued by New Haven Building in-
 spector Last Week.

The week closed Saturday was an other in which the number of build ing permits issued was large with the value of the work started, also show ing up as an improvement over the same week last yearf says the New Haven Palladium. but like the week before one job represented a very large part of the total value of the work undertaken. This week should be a heavy one in the building inspec tors office a number of applications for permits have been received among them being the application of Sperry & Treat for a permit to erect the Wright memorial dormitory at High and Elm streets.
 In the past six days the inspector issued 25 permits, most of them, how ever, for very small contract The total value of the work provided for by these permits is given by the in spector as $166420 One permit, that for the Clinton avenue school. repre- sents $104,000 of this total, and the rest is divided among 24 jobs, none being very large.
 Water Poor at PlainvIle.
 Patrons of the Plainville Water com panyi have for a greater part ceased using the supply which is being fur nished, on account of it's condition. Wells have been resorted to and many find it necessary to travel distance for suitable water for drinking and cooking purposes. The wells, which are being sunk in the Woodford lot, will not be ready for service for about three weeks at the earliest.
