Good Time to AdvertIse.


The present time is peculiarly IA
vorable to enterprise in advertising.
The buying public is looking for new
clothes and new house furnishings
after the wear and tear OF the sum-
mer. At other times of the year you
have the dead weight of the buyers
indifference to work against. Now
the buyers are coming your way, their
attention and interest are excited, and
the merchant merely has to persuade
them that he has the goods and the
values.
1t is good time to advertise when
buyers do not expect quite the low
prices that can be had at of seasons.
Goods sold now bring a profit A
dollar spent in advertising now should
save the loss of many dollars on goods
that must be disposed OF at a sacrifice
later to get ready for another season.
If you have exceptionally good val
ues for the money, they will be more
likely to attract attention now than
at off season times, because there is
less price cutting now to compete
with
The merchant who has bought his
goods at reasonable prices will find
them exceptionally welcome at this
season before special sales have be-
gun. Tell the public about them; they
will respond.

PROPER FEEDS FOR POULTRY

GENERALLY speaking. the poultryman
need not worry much about feeding
formulas. If he will feed about one

and feed animal and vegetable feeds
in connection he viii get fairly salts.

customed TO compromising rations
might remember that a ratio of about
Is is considered n good ration for
laying hens and 1.6 a good one for
fattening poultry of all kinds
Fowls require the equivalent of
about q pounds of dry feed for each
500 pounds of live weight. That is.
100 hens weighing 5 pounds each
would require about 81 pounds of dry
matter each day. If they are given
milk, green, or other wet or juicy
feeds. they will require less grain.
About ounces of dry matter per day
is the quantity required for best re-
suits.
The very best rule is to watch the
fowls and feed them about all they
will eat. 1t is not a good plan to al
low feed to lie uneaten. There is no
danger of the hens becoming too fat
as long as they are kept busy scratch

Electric No 2. as It is called, is
about feet in length and contains a
belt, with small metal trays about 6
inches apart for holding the eggs,
which is run over rollers at each end
of the case by the aid of a crank.
This machine is equipped with an
electric lamp and cord attachable to

INVENTOR OF VoLAPUK.

While the Esperanto congress was
in-session at Krakau recently the
news was received OF the death at
KCnstanz OF DR.. Martin Schleyer. who
about thirty years ago gave to the
world the form OF a universal Ian
guage," which he called Volapuk. The
word was derived from the two Eng
fish words world" and speak" The
language, with its 1900 root words, -
was studied diligently by many peo-
pie. some OF whom predicted its
speedy universal adoption. But this
did not deter DR.. Zamenhof from
proceeding with his work in the same
direction, which he finally published
over the name DR.. Esperanto. Com
menting on the work of the two men
a writer in the Berlin Post says. in
conclusion: "Schleyer died at eighty
one; his language died before him
Zamenhof is still alive. and his Ian

Baltimore Convention Nominates Wilson for Presidents Marshall, of indiana, for ce-president, and William ]. Bryan Writes the Platform.

On the 46th ballot at the Baltimore convention on Tuesday afternoon Gov. Woodrow Wilson of New Jersey was nominated as the DemeeFatie candidate far President, after one of the most ]! wonderful political contests ever conducted in American politics.
 MT. Wilson doubtlessly stands as the most correct type of real Ieffersonian Jacksoniarl demo- cracy and statesmanship of any of the opposing candidates hal- lotted on altho' all of the candi- dates were fine men standing high ln the ranks of the party.
 Mi. Wilson is a man of reeog, nized ability, honor and integrity Above all he is a Christian gen. tlemen.
 The greatest man of the Balti- more convention was from the beginning until it's close, the.| Hon. Wm. Jennings Bryan, who by his magnificent stand in theI convention against the corrupt state and nation controlling politicians and interest agents of New York, purged the Democracy of these baneful barnacles. Bryan. who had had a real test If the infdility of the men whose party alliance is inspired and controlled by the s s 5, didn't propose to allow the party to again suffer from their infdelity, and hence he began a fight in the very beginning on the New York politicians plan of naming their man, Alton B. Parker, as tempo rary chairman. This magnificent fight of Mir. Bryan is told of by great newspapers staff man, in an article on this page.
 The nomination Gov. Marshall, of Indiana, for vice- president has gi. en to Mir. Wilson running mate that politicians claim is 2 help to the ticket.
