WILL OPEN DECEMBER LIST.

The warehousemen in Lexington
have definitely decided to open the
loose leaf market in that city on De-
cember LIST. This action will meet
with unqualified approval from to-
bacco growers in Central Kentucky
who were greatly disappointed when
the announcement was made that it
would not open until January l..
There are hundreds of tobacco grow
ers who depend on the sale of their
crop, or a portion of it at least, for
Christmas money, and to have de-
layed the opening of the market
would have been hardship to them.
One advantage of selling in the loose
leaf is that if the first prices are not
satisfactory one need not sell all his
tobacco at once, but can wait until
such time as he thinks the prices will
be more favorable. 1t is the opinion
Of many of the warehousemen that
the buyers will be on hand in full
force when the market opens and
will pay good prices for the tobac-
co. The local market will open about
the same time as the Lexington mark

There are many silver Innings to
European war clouds, at least for
Americans. As soon rs American
obligations in London and Paris are
settled, heavy exports of grain, pro-
visions, sugar, and munitions of war
to Europe will create a surplus of
sterling bills and rates may fall far
below the nominal par of exchange
as they are above it at present.
New York newspapers predict that
this will enable the United States to
buy back securities held abroad on
very favorable terms, and perma-
nently reduce our annual contribu-
tons of interests and dividends to
Europe. There is a good time com
ing. So cheer up and push the
cause along.

a merchant OF western city re-
Gently made a trip to New York
Calling upon business friend he wa.
asked: GLOW does YOUR store re.

in your city, Are you setting OF
following the pacel"
For reply the marchant took from
his hand-bag several late issues OF
his leading home newspaper, and
said: Look over these papers. ! will
mark for you my advertisements and
those of my competitors for three
successive days. Judging by these
ads, what is your opinion of how my
store stands in the race7"
After some consideration, and the
use of measure tape, the friend
replied: On the showing here made
If it represents the general average
for longer period--your store
stands FIRST in your line in your
city,"
"Yes, it is true that in that show
ing | use eight inches more space
than my next competitor-but is it
safe to estimate Il stores Importance
upon the space it occupies in its adj
vertisements?"
"Safe enough" replied the friend,
''to make it general rule among
business men. Your newspaper ad-
vertising is an outlet for your enter
prise; and big enterprise requires IL
big outlet"
"Now, as a mater of fact" CON
fessed the merchant, 'my store is
still second in volume in business
done in my line in our city. But
two years ago it was fifth. At that
time | concluded that l would use
AS MUCH space in our leading news
paper as my largest competitor used,
altho such a campaign seemed to be
beyond my real resources. l was
then doing less than half as much
business as the biggest store in the
city, employingless than half asmany
clerks, occupying a building a third
as large. At the end Of the first year
l found that / had had less worry
over the big advertising bills than /
had previously had over the small
ones-and that l was fourth in the
procession.
"Then l concluded to use a little
MORE space in this newspaper than
the biggest store was using-and for
the year past have done that. The
result is that / am now good second
in the race--and year from now
the other man will have changed
places with me.
1.-THE other man has professed to
believe that | would overdo the
l would tire of paying
big bills for space; but my experience
is that it seems easier to pay a bill
of hundred dollars when there is
a balance in bank of two hundred
than it is to pay bill of fifty dollars
with a balance of seventy-five. And
| have found that SUFFICIENT add
vertising has made a change of about
the proportion in my financial af-
fairs"
This is the essence Of the CONVEX
sation, in which there is a good deal
of flood for thought" for local mer-
