PROPER DRAINAGE ON FARM
Much OF Laying Out and Excavation

After heavy rain in summer-any

land and determine IL the water, at it's
height seeks a natural runway. It is
easy to see where water would escape
IL a few places are leyeled down to
a point below the water above them.
Place stakes at these high places, and

working, get busy with team, plow
and scraper and cut down these high
places. When another rain comes see
If the water flows of. If not, observe
where the high places are and again
go over them with team and scraper.
Begin work at the lower end of the
natural water course and work up
towards the sloughs. There may be
places where greater excavation may
be required, and this can often be
done with spade at seasons of the
year when there is lur in other
work. Open ditch work of this char.
acter for few years will relieve
many fields OF wet and unproductive
places now existing, and the farmer
will scarcely realize the cost, while
the expense of cultlvating the entire
field will be reduced and its produc-
tiveness increased.

CHALMERS ON NEWSPAPER ADVERTISING


arc teaching. whether it be in printed
advertising or in oral craftsmanship.
"Now let's consider the advertising
side of this question for a few mo-
ments. AS / have said before, don't
thinl: it is possible to get up any set
of rules governing advertising, be-
cause just as surely as you try to do
this you will find the rules won't
work Instead of being set of
rules, advertising mainly consists of
having the right idea and using it at
the right time. That sounds simple,
and it is, too, but it is one of those
things SO Internally simple that they
are hard. We make it hard some-
times because we try to go about it
with a set of, rules which some one
has told us about, or we try to apply
to it other tests instead of trying to
apply to it the one test of simplicity
and plainness and of common sense.
To my mind there are only three fun
damental principles in advertising,
and these are as follows: First, be
honest; second, be sensible; third, be
persistent.
81 say be honest because every
advertiser should remember that ad-
vertising doesn't create value-it mere:
ly tell of it. The value has to be in
the article itself. Advertising never
added to or detracted from any article
ever sold, and, while it is possible
through advertising to create a lot Of
first orders through Misrepresentation
yet it would be impossible to repeat
such an advertising campaign, and no
permanent success was ever built up
on misrepresentation or misstatement
II say be sensible because there
are so many men who seem to talk
about everything else but the right
thing when they get to writing adver-
tising copy. Be sensible because the
majority Of people who read copy are
endowed with good common sense.
81 say be persistent because you
have to keep everlastingly at it. Peo-
pie soon forget-there is SO much to
attract their attention-and unless we
keep persistently at advertising we
had better not begin at ALL AS my
good friend Colonel Lafe Young of
Des Moines has said, Every man, wo-
man and child in this country knows
that railroad crossing is dangerous,
but the railroads don't take down
their stop, Look, Listen!" signs.

If any man on earth is qualified to
speak on advertising it is Hugh Chal
mers, head of the Chalmers Motor
company, and if he praises newspa-
pers as advertising mediums-as the
best mediums, in fact-editors of
newspapers may be justly proud and
accept his statements as fact.
Mr. Chalmers began his career as
Office boy for the National Cash Reg
ister company, in time became it's
sales manager at a salary of $4,000
n year, and all this through his keen
knowledge of advertising.
His speech in part before the Pub
licity club of Springfield, Mass, is
as follows:
There are two excuses why any
man should not advertise. The first
one is, L have SO much business
why advertiser The second is, L
have so little business | cannot af
ford to advertise. So if man is
looking for an excuse between these
two he always has one.
Il believe that newspapers are the
best mediums for advertising because
the people are always looking for
news. They buy a newspaper to read
the news. and they stumble into the
mediums-magazjnes, both weekly and
monthly and wsskly newspapers. |
believe in any mediMm that has a
legitimate circulation, but particu
larly believe in the newspapers as
being the best way of reaching the
people with almost anything yOg haye
to sell
II believe that advertising and
salesmanship are the chief factors in
distribution, and the relationship be-
tween the two is the closest-in fact
they are inseparable, because all ad-
vertising is salesmanship and all
salesmanship is advertising. IL you
want one word that will take the
place of both that one word is teach
ing Advertising and salesmanship
are teaching people to believe in you
and in the goods you have to SELL
In advertising, however, you are
talking to thousands or perhaps hun
dreds of thousands of people at a
time. while in salesmGnship you are
talking to one or two persons at n
time, SO that it might properly be
said that advertising conducts public

sQABBLE OVER PATRONAGE.
House Democrats Disagree when the
Method of Distributing Plums is
Brought Before the Caucus.

Washington, April 9-House Dem
ocrats are in a peck of trouble, and
unless a caucus, to be held during
the coming week, probably Monday,
relieves the situation of it's embar-
rassing features, complications OF q
still worse character may result.
The present trouble has come about
because the patronage committee,
appointed at the former caucus of the
Democrats, divided up the patronage
that is to be allowed each Demo
cratic member. Under this arrange
ment only 81 200 will go to each rep
resentatiye. That in itself is not suf-
ficient to bring even one first class
employee to Washington. But to add
to the troubles of the day some OF
the stronger members already have
placed constituents in places that pay
from $4,000 and up, and to do this
it has been necessary to take away
from other members less prominent
their 81, 200 worth of patronage. The
latter as a consequence, are sore AMI
do not look upon such a procedGre
as fair.
1t is believed that in view of such
situation the caucus will decide,
that all patronage shall fall upon
the four elective officers of the house
clerk, sergeant-at-arms, doorkeepep
and postmaster. and that these Off
cials shall make all appointments
and be responsible for all employees
in their respective departments. II
