lesenting a school of salesmanship
at the banquet of the Ohio Retail
furniture Dealers association at
Columbus, o., in an address on
Finding the Customer and Keep

The newspaper, he said is one of
the best mediums for advertising.
THE only way you can get the
confidence OF a customer is by treat

The man who writes a dishonest

than a second-story worker. Adver-
tising is nothing but salesmanship
on paper. What will get, hold and

AUTO RACES ARE

beach were in good trim for the open
ing OF the race meet today. Auto
mobilists began arriving at an early
hour and long before the advertised
time set for the first race some two
hundred autos were parked on either
side OF the spacious grand stand,
which was only sparsely spotted by
spectators.
Inc crowd was variously estimated
at from 1900 to 1900 people. Sher-
IF Bowden and a corps OF deputies
policed the course.
The entire morning was taken uD
with trials over the course and until
II O'Clock the crowds sat in the
stands satisfied to watch the speed
annihilators at the work OF tuning
up their cars.
1t was given out that trouble with
the timing device used in recording
the time of cars was the cause OF
the delay. 1t was II o'clock before
the first race was started. Then a
change was made in the program and
the first event was the twenty-five
mile open race for cars of 600 cubic
inches or less piston displacement,
2,2OO pounds minimum weigh.

Special instructions have been sent
to internal revenue agents in regard
to .adulterated tutter. After. May
the plea that butter, which is found
to contain excessive moisture, be-
came adulterated by accident, Will
not be entertained by the internal

tain or consider the plea of butter
manufacturers, as the basis for re
lief of any special or stamp taxes
due, tnat the incorporation of 16 per

dental, but in every case where it is
shown the product contains excessive
moisture all taxes incurred on az.
count thereof will be assessed and
collected; also forfeiture proceedings
and criminal prosecutions instituted
in cases were facts demand such ac-
ton"
Commissioner Catell, in a letter
to collectors and internal revenue Of
ficers, says: Recently considerable
portion of tie time of the officials
of this bureau has been taken Up
in listening to appeals and arguments
in behalf of producers of butter who,
by reason of the incorporation of

the product, have under the law in
CURED liability to special and stamp
taxes as manufacturers of adulterat
ed butter. These pleas and arg :
ments for relief from liability have
been based principally upon the
ground that the abnormal moisture
was Incorporated by accident and
that the manufacturers were rot en-
gagged in the production ii adulter
ated hutter as a business under the
terms of the law.
after thorough investigation
and a great number of analyses Of
samples covering long period of
time, this office is of the opinion that

This opinion is borne out by he in

packing of hundreds of thousands Of
pounds of butter annually for the
United States navy under contract
specifying that the moisture content
shall not exceed 13 per cent, and this
specification has been complied with
without difficulty on the part Of The
contractors.
therefore, it is evident that man;-
facturers can control the moisture
