THE PUBLIC AND ADVERTISING.

Among the objections to advertis-
ing entertained by certain merchants
the following was encountered the
other day: One man said he had nc
question that advertising was read
He thought that even II the most at
tractive bargains are announced by
a home merchant, his own townspeo-
ple would not credit. Distant things
looked so much more attractive that
they would hurry off to some other
city or send long distances to a mail
order house, although they Jared no
better for their time and trouble.
This point of view struck us as
rather unusual, and indicated good
deal of pessimism about human ma
ture. Are people quite as foolish as
that?
It seems incredible, in these days
OF high prices, that people can for
any length of time be cajoled or
fooled into neglecting their real in
terests. If a home store really has
the goods, at right prices, and will
tell the public about them, 1t should
get plenty of business. People are
not anxious to pay express charges
or railroad fare and walk long dis
tances for nothing.
The trouble is that tho local mer-
chant too often thinks that the pub
lie knows all about what he has with
out being told. But If people get out
Of the habit of trading at a certain
place they really know very little OF
what a merchant has.
He may be a very good buyer he
may be an excellent Judge Of values
able to land goods in his home towI
and place them on his counters a
rates way below the big city stor'
which has heavy overhead charges Il
pay. But the public is from Mis-
souri,. 1t wants to be "shown." l
II is not Shown" 1t goes to som
quarter where there is n disposition
to get after business and give inform
alton about stock.

@ II olas, and the story of the
original saint from whom the

in the Encyclopedia Britannica as fol-
lows: "St. Nicholas bishop of Myra,
in Lycia, a saint honored by the Greeks
and the Latins on Dec. q.
Ills cult is as celebrated as his MIS-
tory is obscure. All the accounts that
have come down to us are OF purely
legendary character, and it is impossi-
Bile to find any single incident confirm
ed historically.
"The main facts Of his life are usual
" given as follows: He was bishop OF
Myra at the time Of the Emperor do
cletian. was prosecuted, tortured for
the faith and kept in prison until the
more tolerant reign of Constantine and
was present at the council Of Nicaea.
at should be observed that this last
circumstance is ignored by all histo-
rian~ and that st. Athanasius, who
knew all the notable bishops of the
period. never mentions Nicholas, bish-
Op of Myra. The oldest known monu-
ment of the cult of st Nicholas seems
to be the Church of SITS Priscus and

the Emperor Justnian In the west

ly, however from the time Of the re-
mOval Of his body to Bari. in Apulia,
that his cult became popular.
"The inhabitants of Bari organized
an expedition, seized his remains by
means of a ruse and transported them
to Bari, where they were received In
triumph on the 9th Of May, 1857, and
where the foundations were laid for u
new basillca in his honor. This was
the origin of a famous and still popu-
lar pilgrimage. There are nearly 400
churches in England dedicated to st.
Nicholas. He Is the patron saint of
Russia, the special protector Of chill
dren, scholars, merchants and sailors.
an art st. Nicholas is represented
with various attributes, being most
commonly depleted with three chill
dren standing In tub by his side. OF
the various interpretations of this none
is absolutely certain.
zone explanation has been sought In
the legend Of st. Nicholas miraculously
restoring to life three rich youths who
had been murdered, cut up and con-
cealed In a sailing tub by thievish
innkeeper or butcher In whose house
they had taken lodging.
"a legend Of his surreptitious be-
stowal of dowries upon the three
daughters of an impoverished citizen
who. unable to procure fit marriages
for them, was about to sell them is
said to have originated the old custom
of giving presents in secret on the eve
of st. Nicholas, subsequently trans
ferred to Christmas day.

America by the early Dutch colonists.'

THE BEsT DAIRY FEED
Made From Grain From Which the
Human Food Values Have
Been Taken.
BY Prof. F. D. Fuller.

National Crop improvement seryice.l
The reason why the best dairy
feeds are less expensive than the same
grains on the farm Is because the
principal elements of human food are
taken from these grains before they
are ever made into feed. The by
products Of cereal mills, glucose fac
tories, malt houses, ETC., constitute
often more than SO per cent of the
total bulk of mixed dairy feeds of the
better class.
These oats, barley and corn by
products are considered by experts in
animal nutrition as very valuable
feed materials. After these cereals are
ground in the manufacture of alcohol,
for which the use is growing more i'm
portant daily in the arts, the solid
residue is dried in vacuo, and is then
known as ''dried grains" If made
from corn, these grains contain on an
average of about 80 per cent crude
protein and 10 per cent crude fat. If
made from rye, while valuable, they
are of somewhat lower feed value
The barley residue contains over 20
per cent more crude protein than
wheat bran and twice as much crude
fat. In fact, their food value is
largely increased by the process.
All these products are widely used
by the best dairy feeders and are re-
lied upon very extensively in milk
production. There is no doubt of the
fact that If the supply of these prod
ucts were radically limited or entirely
exhausted, it would have a serious ef-
feet upon the milk production
throughout the country and the
dairymen would have one more bur-
den added to their already overtaxed
strength.
Cottonseed meal is composed prin-
cipally of the kernel, with such por-
ton of the hull as is necessary in the
manufacture of oil. Cottonseed meal,
If choice, must contain at least Al per
cent crude protein. It is one of the
richest of all feeds in this substance
and carries about 8 per cent crude
fat. On account of it's extreme con-
centration it can be fed only in linn
tied quantities and always in con
/ junction with some products to fur
nish bulk. This meal is an important
ingredient in many manufactured
feeds.
