.FARMERs uRGEp 10 ApyERTIsE
kentucky Paper Thinks Agricultural
Products Should Bear Name.

The Made in America Idea has ex-
tended to the smaller cities and towns,
and progressive counties in the agri-
cultural districts now label the home
product, thus reaping greater benefits
from advertising local industries.
why should't the farmer advertise
his Rares7v asks the Louisville, XVI
Times.
He may not be ready to go into
print with a sworn statement as
to the future quality Of his but
ter, his hams, supposedly smok-
ed with hickory chips,or his honey.
distilled by bees which frequent
only white clover fields, but he
can place his name on the pack
ages which he sends 10 market,
whether they be cartons Of eggs,
pounds Of butter, covers Of hams,
barrels Of sorghum or jugs Of APP
pie butter.
The Louisville paper says that the
farmers Of the New England States
have found that this sort Of adver-
Using pays, and they have not been
slow TO profit by it.
In many sections nothing goes
to the city markets which does
not carry the name Of the produc-
er stamped thereon. It is good
advertising. 1t costs next to
nothing. And doesn't everybody
remember the thousand and one
articles which used TO come to
this country bearing the imprint,
/ 4Made in Germany?n The Faith
erland today has no stronger SEN
timental asset than this slogan.
Why shouldn't the farmers Of
the United States displaya pride
in their products which would
lead them to identify their wares
with certain section Of the soil,
just as the city MAJ makes 1t
known through the press that his
establishment is on a certain COR
ner?
