SWEET CLOVER MAKES
HIT With A. h. MILLER

A. H. Miller will seed 200 acres
more Of his land to sweet clover next
spring. He says this is the best feed
possible for horses and cattle and
thrives on sandy and other light soil.
Under normal conditions two fine
crops of hay are cut, leaving heavy
protecting stubble for the winter.
Mr. Miller seeded 40 acres to sweet
clover in 1915 and last fall cut a crop
that was knee high. This year the
clover did well. although the season
was unusually dry, and he allowed
the crop on four acres to 90 to seed.
This spring Mr.. Miller seeded IS
acres of the sweet clover with oats
as a nurse crop. It is growing well
and is now above the oat stubble.
The yield of oats from the nurse crop
was 40 bushels TO the acre.

Destroyers raced to the rescue and
worked energetically until crowded to
capacity with survivors, many of whom
were injured
Accounts of the rescue work differ.
Some say all who survived the explo-
sion were saved and another account
claims that owing to the lumpy sea and
the dangerous position of the steamer
party of about $50 soldiers could not
be rescued. All accounts indicate that
the great bulk Of the casualties was
due to the explosion Of the torpedoes
and that none of the nurses was lost

ond torpedo struck her and the surviv-
ors were landed at a port where they
were given a great reception.
Capt. Breuell. who jumped into the
sea when the decks of the ship were
awash. was picked up in an exhausted
condition and died in a hospital ashore.
One of the nurses says that the life

Your local newspaper is in no

second to no enterprise in cor.tribu-
ting to the upbuilding and better

Its patrons reap far more benefits
from its pages than its publisher and
in calling for the support of the
community, it asks no more than

Secrets
ADVERTISING
A Definite PURPOSE.

The first step In writing a good ad-
vertisement Is to decide definitely upon
the duty which 1t is expected to per
form.
An advertisement written at ran
dom to I'LL q certain amount of space
cannot be expected to bring profitable
returns.
The successful advertiser knows
just what purpose he wishes to &C.
complish with every advertisement be-
fore he prepares 1t. Then he can
write his message intelligently and ex-
pect It to be read with interest.
Sometimes he may wish to announce
the arrival Of q new line Of merchan-
disc. Another time he may decide to
offer reduced prices on certain ar
ticles.
But whatever the purpose Of the an
nOuncement, the successful advertiser
has that purpose IN mind throughout
the entire preparation Of the adver-
tisement. His display lines. illustra-
lions and text all reflect the message
he wishes to send.
After all. the object Of most adver-
tisements is to induce you to visit the
advertisers store. And just as there
are different reasons why you might
wish to go there. so are there different
purposes for which advertisements
might be prepared.
