kept separate. Many property owners
will receive rebates on the paving In
the business district, while the other
fund win have to be built up by popu
lar subscriptions.

MISTAKE OF THE BIG STEAK
BY Herbert Kaufman
Author Of ''Do Something Be Something"

Watch out for waste in circulation. Find out where
your story is going to be read Don't pay for planting
the seed of publicity in spot where you not going
to harvest the results
The manufacturer of soap who has his goods on
sale from Oskaloosa to Timbuctoo doesn't care how
widely newspaper circulation is scattered. Whoever
reads about his product is to store or other
where it is sold - but you have just one store.
Buying advertising circulation is very much like
ordering steak - if the waiter brings you porter
house twice big your digestion handle you've
paid twice much the steak worth to you, even
if it is worth the price to the restaurant man.
You derive your profit not from the circulation that
your advertisement gets but from circulation that gets
people to buy.
If two newspapers offer you their columns and one
shows distribution almost entirely within the city and
in towns that rely upon your city for buying facilities
your business digest all Of its influence If the
other has much circulation but only onethrd of it
is in local territory mere bulk cannot establish its
value to you it's another of the big steak you
pay for more than you digest That part Of it's in
fluence which is concentrated where men and women
can't get your goods after you get their attention.
sheer waste.
By dividing the number Of copies he prints into his
line rate, publisher may fallaciousy demonstrate to
you that his space sold low that of his stronger
competitors but if half his circulation is too far away
to bring buyers his real rate is double what seems
He is like the butcher who weighs in all the bone and
snew and fat and charges you much for the waste
as he does for the meat

TEACHING TO SAVE.

Chicago, in common with many 9th
er cities. has a savings system for
school children. Under this plan the
children bring their pennies to school
and get credit for them in the shape of
stamps The money is turned over to
a bank and deposited to the credit of
the various children. That the plan
is having good results is shown by a
recent report from Chicago. In one
district, some 5000 children had saved
over $1,000 in a period Of two months
since school started in September. Far
greater than the actual monetary saw
ings of each of the children. is the
value of the savings habit which the
system is helping to develop in them.
If they learn as children, to save
their money, they will start off in the
actual struggle of life better fitted than
are most men when they have lived
half their lives. There is no getting
away from it, saving rather than earn.
ing is the secret of prosperity.

HORSE DEMAND IS
POOR IN THE EAST
NORRIS WILLIAMS IN WEEKLY
LETTER SAYS FRENCH ASK
FOR BIGGER ANIMAL.

In his weekly letter on the horse
market, Morris Williams has the fol-
lowing of interest to horse dealers:
Chicago reports a very poor eastern
demand for horses the past week with
prices tending lower. ST.. Louis also
quotes eastern trade very slack and no
demand whatever from the south. In
fact it seems that Europe is the only
customer for horses at the present time
and for the class of horses suitable for
cavalry and artillery purposes, the de-
mand continues good.
However. a slight change was made
this week by the French buyers In the
requirements for cavalry horses. The
minimum size was raised from fifteen
hands to fifteen and a quarter, so bear
in mind your army horses for both
classes must stand fifteen and a quar-
ter to fifteen and three-quarters hands
high.
For the coming week / believe the
strongest demand will be for artillery
horses weighing 1880 to 1.4OO, good.
stout close made horses and the, prices
on these at the Ottumwa market runs
from $125 to s165 depending on quality.
Six army horse buyers and one eastern
buyer for heavy horses attended tho
sale this week.
