Sir Edward Carson Is engaged in
the pleasurable occupation OF abusing
the people of the United States. We
should worry. The people OF the u
S. care as much for the opinion OF
Carson as we did OF the opinion OF
one George the Third OF more or less
famous or infamous memory.
This Carson man is the Tiger
that threatened armed rebellion
against the British government, II
the wishes of the great majority OF
the people of Ireland were given heed
and a measure OF "home rule" under
the control OF England we're given 10
.hem. Carson represents not an Irish
people, but the carpet bag rulers
who have been sent over there 10 gov
ern people against their will. He and
his followers have for long time en-
joyed fat salaries paid by the British
government but wrung from the poor
peasants OF Ireland, and they hate like
the devil 10 let go the perquisites that
they have taken so long, that they
almost feel that instead OF il being
"A privilege. II is a right.
IL any prominent man In the other
sections of Ireland, acted as did Car
son when Britain was in the most
critical stages OF its history, the sod
would be growing over his grave
long ere this.
Poor, peaceable Sheehy Skefington
who talked peace and submission al
all times, has been for three years
in the quiet of the grave in Dublin
while his murderer Is as yet unpun-
ished, while the man who talked
practical bolshevism or direct action
is still alive and still pursues his
favorite occupation of batting and de.
flying the British government and not
only not punished, but is actually q
member OF the peerage.
II Is small wonder that there Is
grave unrest in that little Isle across
the sea, when a men OF the Carson
type, deles the greatest power in
christendom and gets safely away
with his traitorous talks and threaten
ed traitorous actions. Will Smith in

SHEEP on JACK PINE PLAINS

SHEEP on JACK PINE PLAINS.
Notwithstanding the communities
lions we have received from interest
ed parties regarding the adaptabiIity
of pine plans TO sheep grazing. we
are still unconvinced that 1t is advis-
allie for promoters of the sheep in
dustry in this peninsula to advise or
to be, responsible in any way for
ventures that depend upon jack pine
plains for grazing fields.
Our doubt was heightened during
tie week when we discussed this
subject with a gentleman we'll up in
tno sheep grazing industry and who
has bad occasion to note the result
OF feeding sheep on such lands. He
tells rs that our criticism OF such
ventures was in place; that Jack pine
pans are not suited for sheep pas
ture. Asked TO particularize. he told
Us that ewes pastured on such lands
do not give the milk necessary To
nourish their young; that the vegota
tlcn On such plains are mostly weeds
ana ferns In addition to the small
brush such as burberry bushes, and
that such feed has not the nutri-
ment necessary to fatten the sheep or
provide nourishment for the young.
From cur limited experience we arc
inclined to think that the gentleman
WIS stating the facts just as they are.
We are advertising "cloverland." The
name we have chosen for our PENN
sula comes from the fact that IL Is a
land OF clover. Glover IS. they tell
LUIS. the very best feed for sheep.
Glover doesn't grow on Jack pine
plains. The place 10 feed sheep Is on
the lands upon which clover grows.
The people who own this jack pine
land ought not jeopardize our chance
OF making the real clover lands those
OF vast sheep pastures by experiment
Ing in this early stage OF the game.
Perhaps. later on after Che industry
"a we'll established. these Jack pine
plains can be worked in TO advantage.
but let's stick 10 the cut-over lands
where the soil Il anchored 10 the
earth s65 days in the year and clover
Is tile product. not weeds and bushes

MERCHANTS AND ADVERTISING
During the past ten years grea,
many small towns have been on the
down grade. from a commercial stand
point. owing 10 the inroads made on
their business interests by the large
cities. the mail order houses. farmers
union and other forms OF outside com
petition. Many a country merchant
blames the automobile for taking his
business away from him, but 1t is
quite likely the automobile could be
made to bring trade to him as readi-
Iy as II Is made to take 1t elsewhere.
The fact is that the country mer-
chant, like most OF US, will blame ey-
erybody and everything for his condi-
ton before he will begin TO lay the
fault TO himself.
There is a store In a city OF less
than 1900 inhabitants in the state of
Ohio. which in the year 1916 sold over
100000 worth OF merchandise. II Is
the biggest country store In the Unit
ed States and It has made it's town
one OF the most important trading
points in the state of Ohio. Yet that
town has no better surrounding trade
territory than any other town OF l.
200. II was done simply by modern
merchandising and advertising.
The merchant in the country town
has as good chance TO sell merchan-
disc as anyone in the world II he will
only sell 1t; but a great many coun-
try merchants have allowed modern
methods to leave them In the rear
OF the progress parade and have laid
down and let someone else do the
selling. In this connection II is safe
to say that in the trade territory of
nearly every small town, outside COM
petition is doing more advertising,
twice over. than the local merchant.
The only way the country town can
successfully meet this competition is
by using the same tactics. In short,
t only remedy for town that is
going down hill is modern merchan-
dising, and scientific. systematic and
persistent advertising. says the Clar-
ion Uowa) Clipper.
Modern merchandising Is a science
applied to the buying and selling of
goods. Advertising is the same thing
except that 1t has to do only with the
selling advertising is printed sales
manship. II is the science of psycol-
ogy applied to writing news about
merchandise.
1t is admitted that the country mer.
chant is handicapped in advertising
but that should make him all the
keener. His outside competition has
the advantage OF expert advertising
men to prepare the advertising copy
or design the booklet or catalogue
that Is sent into the country mer-
chants territory The business OF
one country merchant Is too small for
him to have an advertising man OF his
odwn, but his town, as a whole, Is n
big business enterprise. This is
situation that needs attention in many
towns.

One part OF the testimony in the
Ford libel suit should be carefully
considered by anyone thinking OF
moving to the automobile centers be-
cause OF the big pay that Is being Civ

Their husbands had been In the en-
ploy OF the Ford Motor Co. which an
nounced several years previous to the
time that the testimony covers a min
imum wage Of $500 per day. The tes-
timony goes to show that the big
pay doesn't mean lettering ones con
ditlon. It's the amount OF living that
one can purchase with the pay one
gets that Is the true test.

prolonged visit in Cloverland Mr.

yet" declared Mr.. Thomas. "The
bracing air; the hundreds OF small
streams and inland lakes where bath
ing. fishing and camping is offered
and the almost unexcelled system OF
well-graded and well-kept Highways

they generally admit that the growing
popularity OF the region as a tourists
