Buy II Now

For more than year the habit OF
self-denial has been practised by the
American people. Whatever may
have been wanted either in the home,
the farm or the shop, the inclination
has been to refrain from purchasing.
To save, not TO spend has been the
rule.
The moment has come to reverse
the practice. The slogan which will
lead to prosperity is Buy II Now!

A publicity campaign waged largely
through striking posters and advertise,

Henry E. Cooper of the Pacific
Carnival. The result of the first step
is shown in the photograph above.
Francis Josef Cation, who has been
named by Director Cooper chief of the
artists staff, is comparative new

From the standpoint of a poster

THE PARTING OF THE WAYS.

Viscount Bryce, the former British
ambassador at Washington, pointed out
in the house of lords recently that
England already had agreed with the
United States to submit questions such
as those raised between the two GOV
ernments to arbitration. and it was
therefore superhuous to inquire wheth-
er any recent assurances Of this ma
ture had been given.
While England was entitled to press
to the utmost against the belligerents
ali the rights which international law
allowed her, he contended that she
could not ignore the rights of neutrals
The country might easily lose a great
deal more than it could POSSIBLY gain
BY pressing them to the furthest point.
which might involve the greatest in
Jury to neutral countries.

tional law had been shattered. and the

TIP TO CREAMERY
MIGHT NET 81, 400
Newfane Patrons Lose That Much
Yearly by Selling at Low Price
Large Parcel Post Business.

A way in which the Newfane creamery
could make net INCREASE of SLIGO year
Tor its patrons was pointed out by \. W.
Fryhofer on a recent visit to that creamery
with \ w Sweeton of this town, agent OF
the Windham County Agricultural assccia-
ton Mr. Fryhofer is in the dairy division
of the United States department OF agr-
culture and for the present Is working IN
Vermont with the state commissioner of
agriculture, L. 5. Brigham, with head
quarters in st. Adams. In report to the
college of agriculture MIR. Sweeton says:
Mr.. FIyhofer came upon request to
look over the Wardsboro and Newfane
creameries He found that the former
was selling from 300 to 400 pounds of
butter per week by parcel post. This
trade started from an inquiry for good but
ter that came into this office last winter.
l referred them to the Wardsboro cream
cry and the present parcel post trade grew
from that.
AT the Newfane creamery Mr.. FIyhoter
found that they were billing out their but
ter at one cent a pound less than other
cTeameries in the state were getting Tor
the same grade of butter. He advised
them to raise their prise one cent and II
they should lose any trade Che felt sure
they would not) that the state market
man would help locate customers ioT
them They did not dare to raise their
price for fear of losing trade, because
they had no way of knowing what other
creameries were getting. If they make use
of this tip and follow Mr.. Fryhofers ad-
vice it means 81 400 per year net increase
to the patrons OF that creamery.

PRESIDENT TURNS
TO RURAL CREDIT
Has Given Approval for Limited Form
of Aid Dy Government-Bond
on Approved Mortgages.

WASHINGTON, Dec T. President
Wilson, yielding to the argument OF politl-
cal expediency in the matter Of rural credit
legislation, has given his approval for
limited form of government aid. Accord
ing to the plan he has sanctioned, 1t is said
the government will be authorized to pul-
chase land mortgage bonds.
In the last congress the administration
prevented the passage of a rural credit
measure because the President objected
to any system involving direct government
aid He insisted that the rural credit
system to be established must stand on its
own feet and that the federal treasury
must be kept out Of it entirely.
The plan now favored by most Demo
cratic leaders calls for the creation of a
rural credits board, which shall pass on
mortgages; which shall issue bonds on ap-
proved mortgages and which shall be in
trusted with from S30,O00,0O0 to 50,000,-
600 of the government funds to invest in
such bonds in order to assure success for
the system at the start This scheme, it
is said, has the Presidents approval
gained, it is alleged, by reason of the in
sistence by his political advisers that his
opposition would be construed as lacking
| in sympathy for the rural population Of
the country.
