DOES ADVERTISING PAY9 .

: Il Is . - d .
So often we hear merchants complain
that they get no returns from their adj
yertising, says Business Chat, in talk
ing to storekeepers.
How do you know this, how can you
prove it?
How is it in your own case? Do you
ever stop to think Of the mere andise
you consume during the year as re
suit of advertising? Somebody did the
advert ising somebody paid for 1t. You
buy the goods and you use them, but
you don't say anything about it.
Do you ever go.to church? OF course,
you do, vet how often do you take the
trouble to tell the minister that you en-
sjoyed his sermon and it did you good ?
The church has been advertising for
centuries thru the pulpit. Would they
ever feel that it paid If they depended
upon the people to tell them SO?
& NoWzit IS exactly the same with your
business. You can't always tell what
advertising does. Because you never
know when you are getting the result
Of advertising:
"a letter came to this office only last
week from a man who asked about an
article he had seen advertised eighteen
years ago. You don't always know
what brings man to your store, and
so it should be the decision OF every
merchant to make advertising real
part Of his legitimate overhead.
You can always have this satisfac-
ton: while you may not see any par
ticular advantage from advertising, you
can rest assured that business would be
much worse Il there were no aJyertis-

FOLDAHL

1 The Foldahl Farmers Club is all
alive again after a. long rest. AS the
weather was somewhat stormy Satur-
day evening, Dec. s, all members were
not present, however, good time was
had by those present. A debate, Re
solved that it pays better to raise pure
bred stock than scrubs, proved to be
very interesting as well as instructive.
In business transactions many things
were taken up and the Secretary was
advised. to purchase a two-burner
kerosene Stove. 81 .5.s
It was decided to meet again Jan. 8,
1920, in the school house in Sec. 8.
After the program lunch was served
to all after which everybody spent some
time in pleasant conversation.

The auto roads cover the lower levels

spent here but a favorite method is
to go as far as the auto road leads

Crest OF The Rockies
This fascinating Park is peculiarly
situated for here the Rockies open
out into a natural amphtheatre Of
many thousand acres carpeted with
meadow land which is hemmed in by
precipitous peaks. You notice at once
the bracing air of the hills, you feel
the freedom of the mountains and en-
joy the peculiar blue sky which makes
the elevations seem so near The
majestic mountains challenge the
newcomer TO scale their granite sides
in order to catch glimpse Of the
world beyond, Those visitors who
live at low altitude notice at once

they sweep through the United States.
When one understands that the
plateau from which they rise is six
thousand feet above the level of the
sea it is not surprising that the at
mosphcre is bracing. Deep breathing

Romantic History
Aside from the intimate charms of
this Park region few persons go there
without being impressed with its wild
ness. Scarcely more than four or five
seasons have passed since this whole
territory was terra incognita, II
home of the Indian and wild beasts.
II has a romantic history, To the
north swept the California Argonauts,
those energetic gold seekers who
looked for passage through the
frownIng mountains that threatened
to bar their way. To the south lies

. money there.
How much printing ink do you
suppose the Bureau of Engraving uses
in year? OH pshaw You are
away under the mark. We use from
100000 to 100000 pounds.
Some ink! But then you must
realize that this is the biggest printing
factory in the world. We make all
our own ink-for one reason, because
we are so particular about its quality
that we would rot be satisfied to let
anybody else make it for u.s. But,
aside from this point, we accomplish
q huge saving.
THE Ink we use costs us an aver
age of about thirteen cents a pound.
If we bought it in the open market,
we would have to pay forty-iive or fif.
'y cents. So you see, we save over a
million dollars a year right there.
Thrift? Why, you might almost
call us misery when it comes to ink
saving. We save the ink-scrapings
from the printing rolls and stands, and
SCH lHeHl.
Even that is not enough. We are
working out a plan for extracting the
ink from discarded wiping rags, used
for wiping off the engraved plates.
Up to now this has been a dead loss
OF ink salvaged in such ways we sell
thousands of pounds every year
with a view to economy. we make
our own printing rollers. from a mix
ture of glue and gycerine. And when
roller is used up, we melt it and
convert it into a fresh one. employing
three parts of old material to one of
new
you see, the United States Is not
too proud to try to save little here
and there. If of late the Government
has had a good deal to say about the
usefulness of thrift. It must be ac-
knowedged that it practices what 1t
breaches. To illustrate its ideas on
the subject, it is printing in this big
money factory millions on millions of
