Poor Demand for Wheat Sends Price

CORN SELLS AT A DECLINE

OMAHA. June Z 1916
There was a very poor demand for cash
wheat today and the market declined
from &c to SC. There was very little trad
ing on tho floor today and those having
wheat for sale were holding out for bet
ter prices.
There was very little corn sold today
and most Of this was sold at a decline
OF Malhc per bushel
There was a fair amount OF oats sold
and the bulk Of tn esales were made at
ibc per bu. The oats market was quoted
lc love-.
MANY OF the grain men think that
with improved weather conditions, there
will be further declines In the corn mar
ket. They also believe that the country
will sell corn more freely, as foreigners
are refusing 90 take hold Of this grain
unless price concessions are granted.
on account OF the Chicago market be
ing closed today there were no primaries

The acknowledgement

Not very long ago, when the gov
eminent stepped into the fight be-
tween the mail order house. and the
rural merchant, and organized the
rural free delivery system and the
parcel post, many good merchant
threw up his hands and calmly ex-
pired-in a business way. But the
wise man, the man who used his head,
began to figure what he could get out
Of the parcel post and the free deliy-
cry that would give him a chance to
compete with the mai order house.
Like all great Inspirations, the an
swer was simple! "Do as the mail
order man does. Get mailing list
and go after the business. " And the
"manontheground" got busy. In the
first place he had his local paper
which circulated throughout his ter,
ritory each week, or daily in some
cases. He advertised with catchy
specials, and got people to write In
for them, sending them out by par
Gel post. He got list of every buy.
er in his territory, went to the news
paper Office and had some attractive
circulars printed, and clrcularized
his customers. People found they
could get goods right at home, prac-
tically, for the same money they
could buy them for in the large cities,
and goods came quicker. There were
no waits, no broken packages nor
missing articles. In fact the imam
battle-ground" proved to them that
he had a mail.order house right at
their doors that could deliver the
goods as cheaply and quicker than
the catalog houses. And the man
battle-ground got the business. The
lesson in this little fable Is quite
plain to every merchant who reads it.
The enormous business OF the cata-
log houses has been built on adver-
Using, business methods, hustle and
stick. to-itiveness With every ad-
vantage on his side he can hold up
and increase his business. All the
acknowledgement" has to do Is to be
"JOnny.on-the-spot."
