any other line of business where the
facilities for presenting 1t to the pub

paper and advertising men are now
devoting a great deal of time to adver-
Using in an endeavor to raise the stand
ard and increase its usefulness to the
public generally.
The art of advertising is becoming so
universal that it reaches proportions
almost beyond comprehension, millions
of dollars being expended annually in
various lines of advertising 1t is
agreed by authorities that a vast sum
Of money is wasted on the wrong kind
of advertising and that great deal OF
attention is given to the work, much
of the money is wasted because wrong
methods are resorted to by advertisers,
but this situation is rapidly changing.
Most newspapers have long since
reached the stage of endeayoring to-
get advertising of any and all kinds at
any and all times. The advertiser who
presents a truthful statement of his
wares to the public and backs up his
Advertising with the real goods is far

THE LANDS THE THING.

Georgia land does not need rest;
that is, it can be made to rest more
effectually through scientific rotation
of crops than through lying idle. Yet
ii is estimated that approximately IS
per cent. of the states cultivatable land
is yielding nothing. 1t is lying out.
In Colquitt county, the economic fool
ishness of allowing great tracts of fer
tile soil to remain in the non-produc-
ing class has become apparent to the
farmers, as the following from the
Moultrie Observer will show:
There will be no lands lying
out" in Colquitt county this year, if
we may judge by the number of
