Take, for instance, the case of fruits,

cause bananas are protected by thick

fruit is free from microbes. Now 1t is

It seem to us to be unjust
for the small farmer TO even
be asked to pledge one-hfth
of his rice crop to save that
of the large ones, by exporting
one-6fth and taking what they
can get for it. We mean the
small farmer who has to pay
one-hfth for water, one fifth
for land. one fifth for advances,
thus leaving him two-ffth.
And now comes the opportuni-
ty for him to export one-hfth.
Pity there is only five of
those one-ffths in the bunch.
Why not let the small farmer
alone. He has a living to make

How MUCH MONEY SHOULD
A STORE SPEND FOR
ADVERTISING?

The most successful mer-
chants in the country spend
from 8 to 10 per cent OF
the gross income of their
stores in newspaper adver-
Using.
A smaller investment than
that is not to be thought OF
unless the merchant decides
that it does not pay to try to
keep up with the procession.
A larger investment than that
is very necessary and very
wise if the MERCHANT decides
that it is highly profitable to
keep ahead of the procession.
There is no store or retail
shop in this city SO small that
this "rule of the successful
may not be adopted with as
sured profit. And when the
small store enters upon an adj
vertising campaign, expend-
ing at least ten per cent. of its
gross revenues on newspaper
space, that store is assuredly
destined to grow into larger
compsny---perhaps veryquiek-
ly.
