RAGAN-GAY MOTOR 90.

Imists skunk back into their holes and
pulled the holes in after them-per-
manently buried face downward, as
is the just desert of every man who
becomes a pessimist in America.
Many men who at first did not
see just how advertising could help
their individual business, neverthe-
less they, too, if broad in vision and
patriotic spirit, began to advertise,
following the Governments advice,
and soon they felt pride in being
numbered among the business lead
ars who were doing their part to-
ward bringing prosperity to the
country and thus helping to destroy
the seeds of Bolshevism, which
fructify in poverty soils and which
die in soils where prosperity is
hourishing.
Largely as an outcome of this
splendid work, vigorously conduct
W by the Secretary of Labor and to
HON great credit is due, everyone
low realizes that the country has
aiken the right road at the forks,
and instead of travelling toward the
land of poverty and anachy, is
headed straight ON the road to the
md of Astounding national prosper
ty, and this glorious change is large
ly due to the power Of advertising,
which created an air of optimism,
and as a nation thinketh in its
heart, so is it. The nation is now
thinking in terms of publicity Great
ed prosperity, and it realizes as
never before that advertising is the
great power which has saved us
from stagnation and unemployment,
and that advertising, big broad and
intelligent advertising, will keep the
nation travelling safely on the road
prosperity.
Advertising is, therefore, as so
trongly presented by the Federal
Government, a work Of patriotism
well as of enlightened selsh
business interest. = Manufacturers

Wheat in this county is about
half threshed. 1t is Of very infer
Tor quality, and the yield is poor
owing to the extremely rainy wealth
er Of some weeks ago. Grass is
more abundant than was ever
known here.
Corn is looking exceedingly well,
better than in years, and good
acreage has been planted in this
county this year. Tobacco here is
backward and spotted. Lots of it
was set out late and has grown very
little. Oats is fine and is now be-
ing cut Hay also is in fine condi-
ton and is now being cut. Old corn
is in demnad here and is selling at
$1,000 per barrel Very few hogs
are being sold. Some big cattle
sales have been made in the past
two weeks at IA and 10 cents. Pros
poets for potatoes this year are very
poor. Blackberries are plentiful
in this section, but are selling at
S1.00 per gallon. Eggs are bringing
40 cents per dozen and first class
country butter sells for 60 cents.
Chickens are scarce and very high.
Labor in this section is higher than
was ever known, and is extremely
hard to get. II is almost impossi
lie TO get hands to work the crops.
Allie X. Ratliff sold to Ulman, of
the Philadelphia Beef Co., ~ head
of cattle averaging 1850, for Aug

bushels of grass seed at $3.50 per

day to Henry c. Caywood 40 head of
cattle at IA IL and 80 head to
same party at 10 IL. The cattle
averaged 400 pounds in weight.

THE AB0UNDING PROSPERITY
UPON WHICH THE COUNTRY
HAS ENTERED.

For months the United States
Government urged all business men
to realize that they could "selr'
prosperity to the country by big,
bold advertising. 1t urged every
body to advertise heavily; if they
were already advertising, to in
crease their expenditures and broad
en- their publicity campaign; and if
they were not advertising, to begin
an aggressive campaign.
Never was better business advice
given, never was it more fully ac-
cepted, and never was there a great
er demonstration of the wisdom OF
such advice. Business men every
where commenced to advertise
more freely and ON broader lines.
Many men who had never done much
advertising saw a new light and be-
gan to advertise, while oId-time adj
vertisers made larger appropria-
tons and gave greater heed to the
almost limitless power of publicity.
The result is everywhere in evil
dence. The optimism of advertis-
ers created optimism, and the pessi-

MUSICAL MENTION

The annual upheaval in choir cir

at the close Of the season and during
the quiet of the summer months, is

REBUFF Of MEX|CANS
At PARIS FORESEEN
Carranza Government Was Not in
Good 0dor With Con-
ferees. u

Announcement by the Mex.can gov
ernment that it is much chagrined
at the Indifferent, treatment it has
received at the hands of the asso-
ciated powers in Paris, and that 1t
| had notified Alberto ]. Rant. it's diplo-
matte representative in Paris, to re
| turn home, has caused no surprise
| in official and diplomatic circles here.
! It has been known from the very
| beginning of the conference that
Mexico would be treated as an out
| slider. and that France personally
would never officially receive PAM
| as minister This decided attitudr
4, on the part of France. 1t is explained
prompted by the protests made BY
powerful business and banking in
| terests in that nation. Their resent
ment resulted from what has been
termed as the confiscatory tactics oi
the Mexican government, and es-
pecially the latter's seizure of tn.
French banks in Mexico by the Car
rama government. 1t Is known that
American and British business ana
financial interests we're in hearty ac-
cord with the French in their pro
test. -
Carranza Was Informed.
President Carranza should not feel
surprised at the action Of the French
government or the lack OF frfeHuii-
ness shoYn by the peace delesates'
as it is pointed out that he has known
for some little time OF the IseI,nx
against his government. however
despite any realization OF the real
condition Of affairs in Paris, 1t Is
contended. that Carranza has pee"
most persistent in claiming some CON
sideration at the conference. as =
neutral nation, and actually peiieNeo
he would be successful.
There is positive assurance amohe
authorities in Washington that, ne
sides the cold shoulder ALREADY turn
ed to this big Central American re
public. she will not be given any
place in a league of nations until she
has modified her policy In deaiinE
with aliens and foreign investors
1t is understood that the people o.
Mexico, who 1T is feared. have not
been entirely nor accurately ADVISE"
of the true condition of affairs or the
reasons for Mexico's treatment, are
aroused to indignation.
Interest in Mexican Congress.
Much interest is now centered here
upon the coming session of the Mex
lean congress. 1t will convene in
few weeks and there is considerable, {,
speculation among international OBJ
servers mere as 10 tHe extent TTes!
dent Carranza and his administrative
Iieutenants will go in pushing
through an enactment of measures
intended to give the government fur
ther confiscatory powers and which
will necessarily affect millions of
dollars worth of foreign holdings
throughout the republic.
1t is feared by some that the coui-
try is soon to be alive, with nuirer
Gus well organized revolutions ami
that the time is not far distant when
the United States will again be call
ed upon to step in and restore orde"
and tranquility.
