THE PROBLEMS OF
RETAIL TRADE

The development of force OF
salespeople, capable of rendering In
te.ligent and competent service to
the pubic, Is perhaps the biggest
problem the merchant has TO deal
with. IL exists just the same in a
store having but one or two clerks
MS In the bigger establishment. Ev-
eryone of these concerns is a bust
ness school, in which constant train
ing in good saesmaship Is proceed
ing AS result there is no place
where the public gets more intel
ligent and helpful service than In q
town Of the type OF this.
To be a good clerk requires some
thing more than ability to add up
column of figures or quote prices
The clerk must be intelligently in
formed about the various lines Oh
goods that he is handling. He should
read trade papers and keep his eyes
open in the newspapers to get help
fuI information about his line.
The intelligent clerk gives de-
pendable impression as to what KIM
Of goods are most durable and most
satisfactory. He can also tell what
kind OF material Is best suited to the
purchasers tastes, habits, manner OF
living and associations. purchase
made with the aid OF such inteiii'
gence is far more satisfactory. Goods
that lust fit wear twice as long and
are cheap at any price.
In a town like this the force OF
salespeople are Of permanent char
acter. As few changes as possible are
made. and the better positions are
apt to be filled by promotions from
the lower jobs in the same store.
The proprietors give personal atten'
ton to the work of instructing clerks.
This builds up a force OF people who
are capable of rendering high de-
gree of intelligent service and OF
helping customers make purchases
that will be permanently satisfac'
tory.
This Is the kind of thing that the
customer misses when he goes away
to buy in sonic distant city or sends
to a mail order souse. There is a
lack of intelligent service, the sales
forces are less permanent, less In
telligent about their goods, and they
make no particular effort to fit the
purchase to the customer.

Union Pacific Makes Big Cut In
Grades by New Track In Weber
Canyon, Utah

More than million tons of earth
and rock were moved in the building
OF new track which has just been
completed On the Union Pacific Sys-
TEN Just east OF Ogden. The Job is
remarkable because it was undertak-
en- and completed at time when
railroad construction over the coun.
try was at tho lowest ebb in years
and because 1t cuts down to a maxi.
mum OF so feet to the mile, grades
which formerly were much heavier

ter view Of the scenic glories OF
Weber canyon. one Of the finest beau.
ty spots Of the land.
The work was begun In April, 1915
and cut In for service December 81.
At many points the new line was
constructed so close to the old line
that 1t was difficult to carry On the
operations Of grading and ballasting
without interfering seriously with the
operation of trains On the existing
line, and of necessity the work had
to be conducted with great care to
avoid accidents to trains or cause de.
lays to traffic.
The rate Of grade in Weber canyon
on the old line Is about ninety-six
foet to the mile; In the new line it
is exactly sixty feet to the mile.
There was one tunnel built on the
new line through a bold projection
of granite known as Sheephead Rock.
The work in this tunnel was oompar-
atively slow on account OF the irreg-
ularity Of the layers of angles and
made in many places excavation OF
the material both difficult and dan.
gerous The tunnel is about $50 feet
long and is lined throughout with a
wall OF concrete two feet thick to
hold back the sand and gravel that
would otherwise fall upon the track
Here is the place where biologists
tell us there existed at one time the
lake known as Bonneville, which was
larger than Lake Michigan. Evidenc
&c exist in this canyon to show that
the shore lines Of the lake extended
well up into the canyon, probably
much higher than the grade reached
by the present work.

Tile Trap for
Colonial Rabbits

An inexpensive and permanent sew
er tile trap for cottontail rabbits,
which has proved very effective In
Kansas. is described in Farmers Bull
letin 7O2, Cottontail Rabbits in Rela-
ton to Trees and Farm Crops Del
tails of this trap were supplied by
Mr.. j. NJ. Vain sley, who has used
it successfully On his and other farms
in that state. To make the trap pro-
coed as follows:
Set 12x6 inch "tee" sewer tile
with the long end downward and
bury 1t so that the 6 inch opening at
the side is below the surface of the
ground. Connect two lengths Of 6
inch sewer pipe horizontally with
the side opening. Second grade or
even broken tile will do. Cover the
joints with soil go as to exclude the
light. Provide a tight, removable
cover, such as an old harrow disk,
for the top of the large tile. The
projecting end Of the small tile is
then surrounded with rocks, brush,
Or wood, so as to make the hole look
inviting to rabbits and encourage
them to frequent the den. Rabbits of
course, are free to go in or out of
these dens, which should be con-
structed in promising spots On the
farm and in the orchard. A trained
dog will locate inhabited dens. The
outlet is closed with disk of wood
on stake or the dog guards the
opening. The cover is lifted and the
rabbits captured by hand.
These traps are especially suitable
for open lands and prairies where
rabbits can not find natural hiding
places. They are permanent and cost
nothing for repairs from year 70 year.
II it is desired to poison rabbits, the
bats may be placed inside these
traps, out Of the way of domestic
animals or birds. This trap also fur
nishes an excellent means Of obtain
ing rabbits for the table. or oven for
market.

THE INCREASE OF THE
CREDIT BUSINESS

A grocer was talking the other cay
about the difficulties and expenses
of his business. He said that his
losses from bad credits are not at all
serious. He mad on his books at the
present time but two customers
whose accounts he was unlikely to
collect. They were OF the kind that
decamp over night, and find 1t cheap
or to move than pay rent or trades.
mems bills.
He said that the increasing tenden.
CIV of the public to do business on
credit is a far more serious prob
lem. The number of people who
come to his store and pay cash and
carry the stuff away, is declining,
The great bulk OF his trade runs up
bills that are paid once in one, two,
three or more months. 1t takes a
growing amount OF capital to finance
all this business. At the end OF a
month he often finds 1t a serious mat
ter to tide over his obligations until
the next months payments begin 10
come in.
This involves heavy charge for
interest On loans. No longer can
he do business on his own capital,
but he must call on the banks or 9th
ers for assistance. 1t is a part OF
the expense OF running his business
His competitors he believed, must
also depend largely on borrowed re-
sources. He believed that the con
sequence is that interest Is a large
factor in the cost OF running groc

LETTiE

Sister though you've gone and left
us,
Yet your dear face we can see,
In our dreams that now surround us,
All our thoughts turn back to thee.
Why dear sister did you leave us
Are you happy over there?
Have you now no pain or sorrow,
Are you resting free from care?
These are questions that confront
us,
Meet US daily we might say,
Yet we have for hope and comfort.
We shall know some other day.
This Is why 1t was you left US,
Did not our redeemer say:
"You must suffer little children,
That YOU might come back to met"
He It was that bled and suffered,
Twas He who died On Calvary,
That our sins might be forgiven,
And we would meet in eternity.
O. ~ we could all be faithful,
To the things that Jesus taught,
We could see our lot much brighter
IT'S not SO bad as we have thought.
We have work It's true, dear sister
You had work when you were here
And we think that you're not idle,
For your spirit must be near.
In our fancy we can see you,
Clyde and Ivan by your side.
O. IL we could only live, dear,
That we too might there abide.
Then comes a question: How can
we meet you?
The only answer now is this;
We must live life most holy,
A life OF truth and righteousness.
We know that you dear have been
faithful,
You have labored brave and true,
Taught us what you thought was
right, dear,
That we might come and dwell with
you.
