THE BEET SUGAR INDUSTRY

In the Intermountain Farm and
Livestock Journal, monthly maya.
zine which has just made its bow to
the people of the intermountain re.
gion, we read with a great degree OF
pleasure an interesting article on the
above topic from the pen of Mr..
Fred G. Taylor, secretary of The Anal
gamated Sugar Company. Al Mr..
Taylor is very we'll known in Cache
county, having lived for a number
of years in Lewiston, and as he was
at one time a writer of considerable
note on this paper, We know OUT
readers will be glad to read his ar.
ticle. 1t therefore follows in full:
The special advantages of beet cul

the plant, rendering it less suscepti.

during the marketing period It will
stand more abuse without impairing
its market value than any other
known agricultural product. proved
by the condition in which beets are
often received at the factories, after
having been frozen and wilted and
otherwise damaged. Third, the price

entists declare the beet to be one of
the splendid distribution of its pecu-
liar fertilizing agencies through The
agency OF the little rootlets which
branch out from the beet. By the
same authority we learn that an av'
erage crop of sugar beets deducts less
fertility from the soil than either to-
bacco, corn, wheat, oats, barley oil
clover, except probably the one ele
ment OF potash, which is the least
expensive of our fertillzing elements
1t Is also noticeable in beet grow
ing sections that the local prices OF
other agricultural products are high
err than In sections where they are
not grown; this condition being due
to the large acreage given to bee
culture, tending to prevent an ovel
supply OF other products.

fully dedicated to our distinguished,
highminded, and illustrious neighbor
down the street. A few issues ago
this paper quoted from a circular let
ter that was being sent broadcast
throughout Cache Valley the contents
of which were very uncomplinentary
to this beautiful valley. For some
reason or another, but perhaps in
the main to establish itself as a real
genuine booster, our dear neighbor
santed some of the statements
that were made, and thereupon at.
tempted to place this paper in the
role of doing something very rash,
something 1t ought not to have done.
In order to more fully parade in the
role of something great these big
boosters down the street submitted
little horn of information intended
to show that the figures submitted
were erroneous, and that where mort
cages were said to exist make 1t APP
pear that they did not exist at all.
This said neighbor even went so far
as to cause the careful reader to
wonder whether or not it would not
be in order for the fat, sleek, mort
gage loan companies in our midst to
close up shop and hike to some other
cline where they could exc out an
existence. AS our neighborly neigh
Dor expressed such distaste for the
article this paper replied with the
suggestion that said neighbor might
get the facts" thinking it would be
an easy matter for it to do so, as it !
apparently stood close to those who
just knew all the facts. But 10, this
did not suit our peeyish friends and
just as we expected it comes back
with another wall along the same or
der as its previous eliusion.
Well, now we do not think there
is any one in our midst that wishes

these. There is in the State of Utah
what is known as a State Bureau of

Perhaps our ncighbor did not know
this but there is, just the s\me, and

One Price To All.

In spite of everything a merchant
can do there will be some OF his pa
irons who believe that they can get
reductions in price If they go after
them hard enough.
Every time a price is cut for one OF
these gentlemen al injury is done the
merchant, his store and his other GUS
toners. The merchants moral nature
is weakened so that he is an easier
victim next time; the reputation OF
the store for fair dealing Is impaired,
because these favored customers will
talk and if one man gets better price
than his neighbors, they have been in
jured by just that difference in price,
for one mans dollar Is just as good as
another's.
A reputation Of having one price
to all is worth q great deal to any re-
tail merchant, not only In profits but
also in being free from the nuisance
Of having to go through a long "hag'
gle" every time a considerable sale
is made.
Whenever you refuse to cut a price
you make the customer less likely to
ask for concession thereafter and
you increase the respect IN which he
holds you That respect is worth dol.

DOCTOR WOULD ADVERTISE
But Couldn't Get Business If He Did,
Because of Existing Prejudice,
Says TSft's Physician.

"If l thought could do more busi-
ness by advertising, would begin to.
morrow was the startling assertion
of DR.. Charles E. Barker, four years
physician TO President Taft, to the
Denver Advertising club.
The White House physician had all
the best of an argument which had
been started by the advertising men
to demonstrate that the time-honored
antipathy of medical men to advertis-
ing is a hoax and should meet with
reform.
But I wouldn't get the business II
I did advertise" was the next new
idea promulgated by Barker. II be-
lieve that most people would say,
That fellow likes to blow about him
SELF and they'd go to some other ply
sician. Advertising might get the
business for dry goods store, but 1t
would never do for doctor"
You're the first doctor ever heard
tell the truth as to why he did not
advertise" declared Ben B. Laska, at
torney for medical advertisers in sew
eral cases brought against them in
the courts OF this city 'and county.
"They all pretend that it's because
they're ultra-pure, but I've known for
a long time that 1t was really because
it wouldn't do them any good if they
did"
These interesting statements form.

P. D. Whitaker took the stand that

publications from the Objectionable

Honest Advertisinu.

The only advertising that pays is
honest advertising. This principle is
$50 we'll understood by business men
today, that most Of the advertising
done in the columns of the reputable
newspapers is honest. Occasionally,
however, an unscrupulous man thinks
he can deceive his customers and get
away with it. Amy temporary success
that he may have is at the expense Of
the honest advertiser and Of the pub
Ilication whose columns he helps to
discredit.
To put the dishonest advertiser out
of business is the aim of all reputable
advertisers and publications. Print
er's Ink has been conducting a cam
.paign for legislation against dishon-
est advertising. This winter two
states, Ohio and Minnesota, have en-
actsd the law which Printers Ink
had drafted. This law provides that
the person or firm responsible for "un-
true, deceptive or misleading adver-
tising" shall be guilty Of misde-
neanor.

ATTRACTIVE STORE
AIDS ADVERTISING
Dealer Should Make Place CT
Business One People Turn
to Naturally.

One OF the corners few blocks
from our factory is especially well
lighted, says an observGnt manufactur-
,er. 1t has a large electric arc ilSht
and one of those small gas street
lamps. L you were to walk by thefe
any of these warm summer nights,
YOU couldn't help but notice the lying
army of electric light beetles and 9TH
er insects that are attracted by the
bright light
But they all keep near the big arc
light, although now and then couple
of big hard-shelled beetles will lily
down around the small lamp post.
They never seem satisfied, however,
with it's Pickering, so III a very little
while always buzz back to the strong
glow of the arc. They just naturally
;stick around it, not because they do
lot Of thinking. but because its bright
ness attracts them.
Here's a thought that occurred to
me when passing that corner the oth'
er night:
The dealer who will rake his store
so attractive that people naturally
turn to it as THE place of town, where
things are always reliable and where
they will be never disappointed, that
dealer will draw trade from his more
shiftless competitors as surely as the
big arc light attracts the insects from
the lamp posts flicker.
And do you know the best way on
earth to make your store most attrac-
tive? Coed advertising Is the answer
with emphasis on the good TO be
good, advertising must be truthful, SO
If you advertise to impress people
with the fact that they are welcome In
your store and that you are offering
;excellent values, then your store must
really be attractive, speaking well
come at all tines, and your stock must
really be as fine as you say 1t Is.
If your store can't stand for good
advertising row, fix things up and
then go at thc advertising strong. Use
newspaper space systematically, with
new copy for each ad. Always have
a good window display and change
them as frequently as possible.
Then when people get into your
store, where they are made to feel
welcome and at home, don't you think
they will be glad to buy. and to come
again?
Good advertising does pay-im-
mensely! Years ago many a mer-
chant was a good advertiser, but didn't
know it. His personality, his methods
iof doing business and his store were
his advertising mediums.
Now We are living in the second
decade of the busy twentieth century.
and we've got to do our advertising.
like everything alse, in an up-to-date
way If we expect to keep in the race.
Develop then, all the good points of
the old time merchant and add to
them the printer r's-irk-sort-of-adver-
tising, which would have made the old
timer so much more successful, and
without which the modern merchant
cannot arrive at his best.
1t requires nothing more or less
than the application Of the little les
son we have learned from the arc
light and the lamp post: The biggest.
brightest and most attractive CON-
pels interest and holds the crowds.
