a FAVORABLE TIME FOR
ADVERTISER

ADVERTISER
There is general agreement among
the business and financial authori-
ties that business is making a de-
cided improvement. Last years good
crops have hooded the west with MOI
ey, and the favorable crop outlook ftr
1915 spreads stnl more hope and
cheer. The United States is making
money ON an enormous .amount. Of very
profitable war orders. And the fact
that the war scenes unlikely to con
tinue for many months bids fair to
Lift the embargo that has prevailed
in cotton and other lines of trade.
That being the case, MANY forced
economies in the daily life OF the
people must be coming to an end
The effect of any such depression. as
this country has experienced since
last August list is very widespread,
even as regards communities and in
dividuajs not hit by the harmful con
ditions A mans business or income
may not have been harmed a particle
Yet if he reads about poor business
in Othre localities, he tends to
lose something of confidnce, and to
curtail his own expenses. Economy
and selfdenial and thrift are all con
tagious, spreading from one person
and one community to others just aus
extravaganza spreads
The practical result Of all this
was that a great many people, since
the war began at least, have been
living from hand to mouth buying as
little as they could
Now that everyone seems more
cheerfuIa great many.peopIe.are go
ing to find themselves much in need
of goods of ali kinds. clothing. home
furnishings, business necessities. 1t
is probable that the average house
hold buys food a little less liberal
ly during a period of dull business.
But now collections are better, and
everyone feels less called on for
cramping economies.
There is every reason to ex-
rest of the current season. People
pect a good retail business eor the
VIII buy more freely feeling that in
view of past economies they can af-
ford to do so
As trade expands, every merchant
can afford to let his advertising ex-
pand. If he does not, some one else
VIII set the business. The time has
gone by when the public win hunt
OFT the man who doesn't aggressively
seek trade.

in which Wall street arrives al its
opinion. ~Hs..
In every day trade, the sentiment
Of buyers and sellers is about equal
/ u balanced. From this equal balance
Of conflicting interest, an equilibrium
is reached which usually approx
mates very closely to actual val
iues.
Nine tenths of all who dable in
stocks are buyers. They acquire-stock
when they think they are low. hop
ing Tor high prices. The financial re
ports in the newspapers all reflect
the great preponderance Of buying
sentiment, those who expect to make
money by advances. The great major
ity Of financial reports at any Civ
! en- time are cheerful, tending to en-
courage buying.
The balance against this great pre-
ponderance Of optimism is kept up
largely by the professional bears, .
operators who make a business OF
contracting to deliver stocks at
prices under the market They thrive
on the over confidence and over op
timism Of other people They are
small minority. But the hopeful
trusting. confiding public so frequent
IIy pushes prices ahead too fast, thai
the bear gets a great many chances
to work his profitable game.
It is probable. that for a very
large part of the time for the pas
twenty years, prices of securities
have been too high. They are KEEP
there by the great preponderanoe 0
the people who want to make mon e!
by buying stocks
Wherefore the investing publi'
should be cautious about rushing il
too fast to buy securities. It is prob
ably true that within two or three
years, with the war over and bust
ness confidence fully restored, sc
curfties viii be higher. But Their
viii be many ups and downs. Peopl
who buy should take only the mos
solid securities, and should be pre-
pared to lock them in their til
: boxes and forget about them.

JUNCTION CITY ROAD
May Be Divided Into Section and
Greatly improved.

From Stevens Point Journal.
While in conversation with some
of cur busi ness men a short time
ago, James Tovey, the newly elected
chairman of the town of Carson was
made the following proposition
which, if it is carried out will mean
much for the road between this city
and Junction City and to the county
line west of that village. 1t s more
than likely that the matter,Will bear
fruit this summer and is one which
should have the hearty support and
cooperation of our business men as
well as of the farmers residing in
that section OF the county.
The idea presented to Mr.. ToVey
was to grade the road mentioned
from where it crosses the 500 line
tracks near Webster to the county
line and then form districts about
two miles in length TO be dragged by
some one in each district who. is. will
ing to assume the work. The town,
if the suggestion is carried out, S to
provide each of the farmers with
road drag, and pay him for the ac-
tual time he works on the roadway.
In support of this the business men
of the city will assume the task of
securing a sum of money, about
$1OO, and offer it as a special prize
to the ones who have accomplished
the most goOdin their particular dis
trict. The money will be divided IN
to first, second and third prizes.
1t is thought that if the plan can
be worked out it win mean much for
the road and will show what can be
done by careful, consistent dragging,
especially when the road becomes
rough or pitch holes appear.
One of our leading merchants also
thinks the same action should be tax
en- on the road west from this city
through the northern part Of the
town of LinWod toward Rudolph 1t
is said that Wood county has done a
great deal of road building around
Rudolph and has thus diverted to
Grand Rapids much ofJthe. trade that
formerly came to Stevens Point.

OLD LEAGUERS CHALLENGE

A bunch of ex-baH tosseTs, old

for the reason that these leaguers are
afraid that if their names were men
toned, the city team would get cold
feet and refuse to play, We have
agreed not to divulge the names until
it is too late for the city team to
back out.
These old Ieaguers have agreed to
have a medical corps handy to take
