Printed Letter Heads.

Printed letter heads and envel opes are travelling advertisers When letter comes, it makes a big difference if it has a printed letter head and envelop It looks like business and it is business of the best kind.
 The farmer needs just such printed letter heads. There should be something fot sale on every farm and the letter head can be made to advertise it very cheaply. It will also be found that the printed letter head will have quite an influence on the person himself. The more he sees 1t the more pride will be taken in keeping up the quality of articles for sale.
 It is not an accident that busi- ness men in all lines use the printed letter head. They have found that it is good business proposition. Farmers who have tried it found it profitable and source of pride. The cost will not be so much more than plain papar. It may seem a little large but then one must remember that he is getting a good many sheets and envelops at one time.
