Due to Lack of Advertising.

Thirty or forty years ago the Nam
moth Cave shared honors with Mag
ara as a point of interest for trav
elers. No American felt that he
kenw his own country till he had Wis
tied the wonderful opening in the
earth. No foreigner visiting the
United States was expected to return
to his own land without seeing and
exploring the cave. 1t was one of the
features of illustration in school geog
raphies. 1t furnished subject fol-
countless magazine writers and illus
traitors.
Now, We never hear of the Nam
moth Cave. Public attention is called
to the fact that the monster hole in
the ground "is still there" by the an
nouncement of change in ownership
the former proprietors finding that all
profits on their investment had van
ished.
The fact is, the Mammoth Cave has
not been advertised in recent years
1t is just as wonderful as it always
was. But. somehow, practically al
attempts in the way of advertising i
have ceased. Just why this is, it may
be impossible to say. But the fac
remains.

SELECTING GOOD SEED CORN
Little Practice Will Enable One to
Become Quick and Reliable Judge
Points to Study.

With a little practice one can b.
come a quick and reliable judge OF an
ear of corn suitable for seed. But 1t
will be necessary to study such points
as trueness to type, shape Of ears, color
of kernels, tips and butts of ears. uni
formity of kernels. shape of kernels.
space between kernels and the per
cent. Of grain toS the cob. Briefly 1t
should be stated that the rows of kerr
nels should be straight. running from
butt to tip; the kernels wedge-shaped.
thus insuring large per cent. OF the
corn on the cob. The burrows. or
the space between the kernels. should
be narrow; the grains deep, the cob
comparatively small. The color of the
kernels should be uniform. having no
indication of a mixed variety. All ears
that show immaturity or rotted kerr
nels should be eliminated, and espe-
cial care should be taken to select
ears with large germs. The fact should
be borne in mind that a large yield
requires ears that are well filled and
as few nubbins and barren stalks as
possible. 1t costs as much to produce
nubbins as it does good ears. and or
dinarily 20 bushels to the acre will
cost as much work and other expense
as 40, hence the economy Of increas'
ing the yield.

There are a nAmber of teachers from
other counties holding State Normal
certificates trying to secure the best

to our teachers and would lower the
standard of scholarship to give our
schools to teachers from other cOun-
ties. Everything being equal, let tho

Spinach is one of the best things to
grow.
Fifteen to 20 ears of corn will plant
an acre.
Don't use barb wire If you can
avoid it.
Productive soil must contain a large
amount of vegetable matter.
There is no better fertilizer for
grass than farmyard manure.
Potatoes make fairly good crop
with which to follow millet.
There is no more convenient place
to haul the manure than to the grass
land.
Small patches of quack grass should
be dug out with forks and the roots
burned.
Putting a small gasoline engine on
the grain or corn binder is a new
wrinkle to save horse flesh.
Those who have not already saved
their seed corn. however, must do &c
from the product as it is husked.
Seed corn must be selected early
enough SO that it may have plenty OF
time to dry before cold weather.
Cover crops are divided into two
classes, based upon whether Of not
they add any considerable amount Of
food.
Cover crops, when plowed under, i'm
prove the physical condition of the
soil, making it porous and of better
filth.
Farmers operating on large scale
often keep in telegraphic or telephon-
ic connection with the market to
which their products are consigned.
Millet is rather hard on the fer
tility of the land, but an ordinarily
rich corn belt soil should yield twd
good crops of millet in succession.
A piece of rubber hose about a wire
pail handle offers a splendid safe
guard against cutting the hand when
carrying cement and other heavy
stuff.
The manner in which the corn is
stored is not so important so long
asr some method is used which will
permit a free circulation of air all
about the ears.

Nothing else that you can take will
break your cold or end grippe so

three consecutive doses are taken.
The most miserable headache, dull
ness, head and nose stuffed up, fever

gin to leave after the very first dose.
Pape's Cold Compound is the re-
suit of three years. research at a
cost of more than fifty thousand dol
lars, and contains no quniine, which
we have conclusively demonstrated
is not effective in the treatment of
colds or grippe.
Take this harmless Compound as
direcyed with the knowledge that
there is no other medicine made any
where else in the world, which will

COMMON SENSE BASIS
OF GOOD ADVERTISING
1v WINE G.. FREEMAN,

Abe Martin says: THE man who
does not advertise may know his own
business. but nobody else does"
always think there IL something
wrong with a business If it does not
make itself known in some way.
Common sense must be applied,
however, as to how that business shall
be made known.
In New York, Chicago, Philadelphia
and other large cities there are fifty
times as many stores that do not adj
vertise in newspapers as do advertise
in them.
The reason is that these stores are
mere neighborhood stores-doing a
small business-depending wholly on
the custom of perhaps a couple Of
hundred families.
Obviously, such stores cannot afford
to advertise in the big newspapers.
How, then, are they to advertise?
There are only a few ways for them
to do, viz:
Sending well-written letters to all
Of the families in the neighborhood
telling about the goods they have for
sale-using posters and signs in their
neighborhood wherever they can get
the space for them-displaying their
merchandise in their windows-but
better than all of these is advertising
in the weekly neighborhood paper. if
one is issued.
There must be advertising of some
kind done, and If it is effective the
business will grow, and the small
shopkeeper may be able to acquire
stores in different neighborhoods
Then he can branch out with his ad,
vertising program and buy space in
the big newspapers, like so many 9th
ers have done before him.
This applies only to the very large
communities; in the smaller com
munities, where everybody knows
everybody else, the one medium to
use all of the time is the daily home
newspaper.
You must realize that good adver
Using, of whatever nature, must have
basis of old-fashioned common sense
and must be done in accordance with
shopkeeper's ability to pay for it.

Advertising "Our Town."

Do you take pride in your town?
In speaking of it and working for it.
do you say "our town."
When you say ''our town." the ex-
preston has different meaning from
what it does when you say the town. %
this town" or your town."
Practice saying "our town" until you
can give it musical and attractive
sound that is confidence inspiring and
means the true loyalty of a citizen.
There is big difference placed on
the meaning of words by the tone in
which they are expressed. Some people
can say come in" in tone that means
say out more than it does come in.
In speaking of your town, make
every word mean confidence, loyalty,
prosperity, welcome, and you will have
a town that exhibits all these.-The
Retail Merchant.

Stock Crops.

The farmer makes the most money
who devotes his fields to the growing
of crops to feed stock, making use of
all the raw products at home, thereby
not only saving much OF the cost OF
transportation, bpt also maintaining
the fertility of the soil. Taking every
thing into consideration, corn will
probably produce more food per acre
for domestic animals than any other
plant, and there are but few feeds
which can be fed in a greater variety
of ways.

HINSDALE, N. H.
Blakeslee- Britton.

A very pretty home wedding took place
at the residence of Mr.. and Mrs. Frank
II. Britton on Brattleboro street Tuesday
noon. The contracting couple were John
Edward Bakeslee and Miss Nina Eliza
Britton. The ceremony was performed
before an altar of hydrangeas and as
Rev N. L. Porter ofiiciated, using the
single ring service. The bride was hand
somely gowned in light blue messaline
with trimmings of lace. She was given
away by her father. Miss Mabelle Lang
a cousin of the bride, dressed in a tur-
quiose and white foulard with lace band
ings, acted as bridesmaid, while Roscoe
Britton, a brother of the bride, was best
man. The brides gift to her bridesmaid
was a necklace with pendant set in
pearls while the grooms gift to his best
man was a gold necktie clip.
Among the many gifts to the bride
we're gold, silver linen, china glass and
furniture.
After the ceremony refreshments of ice
cream, cake and punch were served and
. the couple were taken by automobile to
Putney, VT, where they took the train
for a two weeks trip to Lake Cham
plain and Montreal. The brides travel
ing suit was of navy blue with black
hat. Upon their return they will begin
housekeeping in a house already fur
nished for them off Spring street. Both
bride and groom came here from Dalton
about three years ago. The groom is an
employee in Robertsons paper mill. They
have the best wishes Of many friends.
