The Open Column
Horse Show Advertising.

Editor The Missourian:-An article
in the Missourian of March 10 told of
the plans for advertising the Second
Annual Commencement Horse Show.
The article stated that the directors
of the show are planning to advertise
with posters on billboards all over the
state.
1t is not my purpose to criticise
billboard advertising, for billboard
advertising is valuable. But l do de-
sire to call attention to the value OF
newspaper advertising and the value
of newspapers to the College of Ag-
riculture. There is scafcely weekly
or daily newspaper in the state that
does not have in each issue at least
one article about the College of Ag-
riculture.
If the newspapers of Missouri are
good mediums for free advertising,
why are they not also good mediums
for paid advertising? B.

COMPETITION AND BUSINESS.

One Columbia groceryman didn't let
the order-by-mail agent cut in on his
trade, but adopted the agents meth
DDS, met him at his own game-and
won.
A few months ago this merchant
signed a contract to carry a certain
well-advertised line of canned goods.
He advertised his new line in Colum-
bia papers and put his goods on dis
play in his windows-but he did
more. He asked the company to send
him a good salesman, who could get
new business with the new line.
With a list of the merchants old
customers. a list of customers he
wanted and a grip of samples. the
salesman made house-to-house calls
like an ordinary agent. He covered
the town in two weeks, took orders
for hundreds of dollars worth of the
new product and won large new
trade for his clients store. Now
many of these newly acquainted Gus
toners are buying other things at
this grocery store.
The competition of the overnight
agent did not hurt this man. Like
most competition, it helped him. 1t
opened up a new trade that he could
scarcely have got in any other way.

HoME.owNERs AND THE STATE.

Home-owners build the nation This
fact brought about the passage of the
land grant act and the homestead
laws. Norway gives home tract to
every newly married couple. Eng
land, Germany and France have con-
sidered the proposition seriously.
Many states have immigration bu-
reaus to induce home builders to set
tie within their boundaries.
During the Baptist general assem-
bly, here last fall, one of the biggest"
preachers in the state said: my
congregation is not settled. The mem-
bers do not own their own homes.
The church is hard to build up under
such conditions Let the factories,
workshops and mines close and the
whole section of the town would
move. The people are not in love
with the place. They have no civic
pride. They do not live together long
enough to know each other"
This is indictment enough. 1t
should be to the interest of every
town to get home-owners. They pay
consumption taxes on light, heat,
streets. parks and water.
Oklahoma recently passed a lend
ing law, which makes it possible for
a man to own his own home at the
price of rent. It is said $7,ooo,0Co is
available for the purpose. Such a
provision would help Missouri.

EURopE,s NEW SPRING HARVEST.


When the robins come back to Mis-
souri-and they are here now-the
impatient farmer grasps his smooth
worn plow handles, splits the rain
drenched soil and plants in the loamy
furrow the seed that shall ripen in
the autumn. Spring here is, above
all else, the time of times for sowing.
In Europe, however, this present
spring is not the season to sow, but
the season to reap. Great things
have been done silently, methodically,
efficiently during the winter months,
and this spring will see the harvest.
Already the noise of the whetting is
heard in the land.
Even now the British harvest ships.

cargoes from the English fields to

sia there stirs much preparation, and
in France. Even Belgium-dumb,
desolate, stricken-yields her quota.
Europe's new spring harvest-what
can it be? 1t is not the rye of Eng
land, nor the corn Of Germany. nor
the wheat of Russia, nor yet the grape
of France. Europe's new spring crop
is none of these. It does not vary. 1t
is the same in all the countries. 1t is

Most of the parts are well filed.
The bass singers are fewer in number

The wonderful record

year proves that they are
right structurally.
It proves that the materi-

have the weight, strength and

to give the most economical
mileage in actual seruice.
Recently we conducted a
test by mail to find out what
iobbers and tire dealers had to
say about 1914 Diamond Tire
records. The hundreds of let
tiers received from them show
that Diamond Tires have more
than made good.
These letters from dealers in
all parts Of the country show that
Diamond Tires in 1914 established
a service record which stands
supreme. We have put these let

noon, will leave behind is civilian pas
sengers from Manila. who must tran
ship to make room for service passen-
gers from Honolulu to San Francisco.
Heretofore 1t has been difficult at
times for army officers and their fam

Honolulu were inadequate to the size
of the local garrison, and the troop
ships Nere jammed with. school teach
ers and government employees before
leaving Manila. II is understood that
certain number of passages are
made conditional on the Honolulu de-
mand, and some of the civilian pas

from here to San Francisco on a liner.
