ATTITUDE OF BIG BUSINESS
CHANGING TOWARD ADVERTISING
(From Leslie's.)

Advertising! A cynical reader of Les
lie S writes to ask if we W. II explain
whether the Periodical Publishers of
the country paid for the five f%ull-page
advertisements they printed in all the
Washington daily newspapers during
the closing days of the special session
Congress. These advertisements
were intended to set forth for the ben
eft of the public and especially of
members of Congress, the attitude of
the leading periodicals regarding the
proposed increase in second-class pos
tai rates and the establishment of an
archaic zone system. The advertise
ments were paid for at regular rate.
Our correspondent intimates that the
publishers of the periodicals might
have used their columns for their
defence, which of course is true, but
this is begging the question. The one
thing the publishers desired was to get
before the public in the quickest time
a fair statement of their point of view,
and they did so most effectively
through the Washington dailies at the
cost of several thousand dollars. 1t is
well to remind our critic that this is
an age of advertising. Never before
have newspapers and periodicals been
so eagerly sought by some of the
largest interests that in the past never
thought of advertising, These are
finding that they can make an impress
sive appeal to the public through the
loading publications of the country by
buying sufficient space and using it as
her own. Recently the Pullman COM
pany, for the first time in it's history,
has, been using liberal space in we'll
known periodicals to set forth the SER
vice it renders so effectively to the
public. The Bethlehem Steel Corpor-
alton presented in a most logical way
its side of the matter when Congress
was discussing the high cost of NUM-
lions. The brewers are explaining
their attitude toward the LUIS of tenn
perance. The bankers, the railways
and large industrial corporations OF
all kinds which have had a fair hear.
ing from the press are just realizing
that thew can saw anything they desire
to the American public by buving space
FOR the presentation of the facts they
wish to present. We are entering
1non 2 new era in the advertising
field. The outcome is being watched

COUNTY AGENT SAYS IT'S
TINE TO WORK IN ORCHARD:
WINTER SPRAY NECESSARY

This is the time of year to begin
work in the orchard. Trees should be
pruned; all dead limbs and twigs
should be removed. Dried, rotten fruit
that remain on the trees, or that has
fallen on the ground, should be gath
cred and burned. This is one means
of reducing disease and insect pests
next summer.
The trees should be thoroughly
pruned before spraying, as the spray
ing can be done much better after
pruning. 1t will also take less ma
terial to spray if pruning is lone first.
The main object of winter spraying
is to keep the San Jose scale under
control; and usually, one spraying
each winter will do this. There are
several remedies for this pest; but one
of the best, and the one most familiar
to the farmers of this section, is the
commercial Lime Sulphur Wash. This
must be applied during the dormant
state, that is before the buds swell.
Some spray just after the leaves fall,
but February and March is a good time
to apply. 1t would be we'll to make

Kidney and Bladder weakness result

The kidneys filter this acid from the

setting up IN irritation at the Eeek Of
the bladder, obliging you to seek relief
two or three times during the night.
The sufferer is In constant dread, the

sensation and is very profuse; again,
there is difficulty in avoiding it.
Bladder weakness, most felix's call 1t,
because they can't control ~urinGtion.
While it is extremely annoying and some
times very painful, this ia really n Of
the most simple ailments to overcome.

gans which then act normally again.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless,
and is made from the acid of grapes and

subject to urinary disorders caused by
