Silence of the blues necessary to give

the reader is so familiar. This ac-

one of choice, the fact being that the

Now that necessity has again

HOW FARMERS CAN
MAKE EASY MONEY
Fifty Cents Invested in Class Ad.
will Often Save Ten Dollars
Worth of Time

Nearly every farmer could we'll
afford to take advertising in the home
paper, says w. P. Kirkwood, editor
of publications, University Farm, St.
Paul. Rarely does one find a man in
a rural district who realizes the saw
ing in time and trouble of letting
every one in the county know that he
has something to sell or would like to
buy something, Mr. Kirkwood says.
Here are some of the things fire.
quently sold that lend themselves
readily to advertising: Pure bred
stock, selected seeds; seed corn;
special plants, as strawberries, sweet
potato slips, cabbages; eggs from
pure bred fowls; OF unusual crops, as
sweet clover, rape, alfalfa; honey
and bee products; supplies of lumber,
fence posts or wood; facilities for
doing farm work, as tanning grain,
testing corn, planting, feed chopping
or harvesting; used farm implements.
There are a hundred other things that
might be added.
Of course he continues there are
some things that do not lend them
selves to being advertised. Cream,
butter, ordinary eggs, meats, ordin
airy chickens-things for which there
is market at some town within a
few miles of the farm-are best dis
posed of by taking them to town and
selling them locally. But many
dozens of other things can be sold
more quickly and at higher price by
spending few minutes writing an
advertisement.
Buying things needed may also be
made easier by newspaper space. 81

says "who rode day after day trying

that would have cost him SOC would
have saved $40 worth of time. !"
"Most live publishers, to get new
farmers advertising accounts would
take a contract to run a IS or so
cent advertisement every week for a
month or longer and guarantee re-
suits. You will get as many tele-
phone calls in a week for your pro-
duct as you have words in a sensible
