PUBLICITY BRINGS BUYER

KENTUCKY MAN WRITES TO
LOUIS BARKER lNoulR!NG I
ABOUT 10 LIB. FLEECE.

Louis Barker is In receipt Of a let
ter from a gentleman in Kentucky In
curing If he can buy a buck lamb by
the famous cottswool ram from which
Wendell Church clipped the nineteen
pound fleece this spring. The letter
has been turned over to Mr.. Church
and no doubt the mans wishes will be
complied with.
The publicity about the fleece was
sent out throug hthis office, and was
also largely circulated through the
columns. Of The Herald. Publicity is a
great thing for a community. Not only
is 1t good for the man who owns the
superior article, but 1t is also good
for the man who wants just such a
superior animal of article.
#. N. Figuers, Jr., has. demonstrat.
ed most ccnclusively that advertising
is the greatest blessing to people
Maury county had an abundance of
superior seed corn. The corn belt OF
the United States needed this seed
corn How were they to get the corn
without knowing about it, and how
are they to know about it without
the liberal use of printers ink? Mr..
Figuers let them know 1t. How was
this Kentucky sheep grower to know
about this superior cottswool buck
unless 1t was published to the world
what he had done for his owner!
Don't hid your achievements under a
half busael. Let the world know what
good there is in anything that you
have that is good, but destroy the bad
things.

eRAFrERs ARE CAUGHT

That gang of grafters who were SELL
ing stock in Minneapolis catalogue
house and making farmers all sorts of
promises in Woodbury. county are
bound over to the grand Jury for fraud.
The Carroll Times, in speaking Of tho
gang, had the following to say:
"The" men were taken to Otto, and by
the time they arrived the news OF
their arrest had spread and ten
farmers appeared in justice. court
against them, explaining the methods
by which they had made their sales"
Of stock in the concern. In at least
one known instance they persuaded a
farmer to exchange hts Liberty bonds
for "stock" in their concern by telling
him that the bonds were no good, but
that the stock would pay 40 per cent
dividends, besides enabling the owner
to buy supplies at a discount.
when the men were arrested they
attempted to bluff the Justice by show
ing their license papers, granted BY
the secretary of state. Here again
the Times came in handy. Mr.. Dick
man showed the justice the article
which stated that their license had
been revoked and the justice decided
that he was warranted in holding them
on this information.
"A telegram was sent to Secretary
Of State Allen at Des Moines, and
that afternoon the reply came that all
licenses granted the concern or Its
agents had been revoked on the ground
Of fraud. The county attorney at
Sioux City was notified and he order
ed the men held. Their bonds were
fixed at $4,000 each to await the action
of the Woodbury. county grand jury.
Incidentally, they were forced to dis
gorge 1925 in cash to the ten men who
appeared against them in court, and
other resolutions may be made to
farmers in the vicinity. = 80
"Mr. Dickman states that when 1t
developed from the testimony that
they had been circulating lies against
the Liberty bonds, the home guards
went up in arms and threatened that
II the men were released by the court
the guards would take up their case
and deal with them. However, they
are now in the custody OF the law and
