FARMERS ARE ADVERTISERS

That farmers believe in advertising
is becoming more evident to all who
read the papers from day to day. The
Register hears it weekly from many
of its farmer friends and patrons. The
State College extension department
has just issued a pamphlet, prepared
by Prof. Starring, that deals with this
form of advertising in a broad and
interesting manner. 1t is a booklet
that should be in the hands OF every
farmer who has things to sell, and its
perusal will give him many new ideas
and a better view of the scope of the
mission of the ne wspaper. With the
wide spread interest now taken in adj
vertising by the farmers, it may be
that in time many merchants who
today cannot sec it's value, will have
their eyes opened by the success Of
the men from the country. Very often
people never see the beauty or find
the value of things that are right at
their hands, until some one comes in
from the outside and they become
painfully aware of the fact.

THE CROWS NEST


Unless a person is a banker or con
nected with a real estate office, or
perhaps a builder, he scarcely has an
idea of the acuteness of the housing
problem at the present time. There
are from two to half a dozen or more
applications for every supposedly
available house that is for rent in the
city. Nearly all of the houses that
are for rent are subject to sale and
a tenant. II he moves into one. does
not know how long it will be before
1t may be sold and he is ordered to
vacate. 1t costs something to move,
and being a tenant at will is not a
satisfactory condition of affairs. This
is one Of the effects of the recent real
estate activity. Some owners who
have Sc1ses for sale do not care to
give even q short lease, ~preferring to
let their property remain unoccupied.
This accounts for another reason for
house shortage. Then there wa.
scarcely any building during the two
year war period. This years home
building activity will not supply the
demand OF those who wish to move
to town and establish temporary
homes. Some reasonable adjustments
ought to ~ made. for every head. Of !

The strike situation as regards the
soft coal miners has brought forth a
declaration from the president, lying
ON his sick bed, a statement that will
meet with the approval of the whole
country. At least that portion OF 1t
that is not bound up in the belief that
unions and their like shall have the
right to make the whole world suffer.
The president says it is the time for
plain speaking, and that while a class
many have grievances, yet the needs
and comfort OF the great majority de
mand that this one class stand aside
of the many Just as o as winter
approaches it seems that coal miners,
railway employees and others whose
occupations give them a hold on the
comforts of winter, deem 1t a fine
thing to threaten a strike in order
to secure an agreement with their de
mands. Threats are all right for those
who have no respect for government
or law and order, but for the man who
depends on others and must have their

all this striving for what we want, do
we yer stop to put ourselves in the
other fellows placer Do we ever look
at the two sides of the question? In
this case Of the miners. 1t would APP
pear that a time for the settlement
of differences was when no stress OF
need for the coal would ~engender
feeling on both sides. Is 1t a threat
to wait until winter is here before
making the biz public demand for
what they term fair play? Or do they
consider 1t justihable to take the
country by the throat and wiring an
agreement out of the people in the
face Of approaching cold. 1t is no,
conducive to respect for the rights they
claim, 1t will not tend to a belief in
the truth Of their side. when this
threatened strike comes when the
country Is facing a long, cold winter.
Let the miner put himself in the place
OF the other fellow. Let him consider
how he would feel in the same state
OF affairs. Then perhaps II he will
view the situation soberly. he will
know that no permanent good comes
from anything that IL granted under

OVER PEACE TREATY NEWS
BY Brnaflan Wall.

New York, June 23--Stocks failed
to show any enthusiasm today over
the news that the Germans had been
instructed to sign the peace treaty.
The absence of optimism was due
to sharp rise in the cali money rate
10 10 per cent and substantial offerings
by insiders, who considered 1t a
propitious time to distribute some Of
their holdings. The result. of these
two influences found reflection in ire
gularity in price fluctuations. Ad-
vances and declines were about even
~ distributed throughout the list. but
the close found the street anyth but
pessimistic with regard to the future
course of quotations.
The usual accumulation OF orders
over Sunday. resulted in marked
strength during the first half hour
of the session when quite nun Der
or issues. particularly the tobacco
shares were advanced to new high
record prices. After the deman in the
early trading had been satisfied. offer
ings increased and prices Welded
most of the early gains bein% wiped
out before midday, and IN some in
stances. replaced with net losses.
Around ] o'clock. there was a rally,
but this was shortlived and specula-
ton quieted down pending new de-
velopmenls. The contraction in deal
ings was due in a large measure to
the sharp rise in the money rate, in
the last half hour of the session
General cigars was offered in lib
eral volume throughout the session
and closed with a net loss of more
than two points.
General Motors again distinguished
itself by closing with a net gain of
eight points and within a fraction of
the best price recorded during the
day. Studebaker at one time showed
gain Of one point but closed with
a loss of one and one -quarter points
Strength appeared in Crucible steel
early in the day but offerings caused
decline for the session of slightly
more than two points.
National conduit and Cable rose
more than a point on buying. which
was said to be for the account of
pool.
Reports that the corn products
directors would place the common
stock on dividend basis were RESPONSE
bic for the urgent buying of that ISSUE
United Food Products WAS purchased
owing TO a belief that it should ad-
vance, following the issuance by the

The prospect Of foreign corn in

tor. Forecast of high temperatures for
the week also was an aid,

of corn at Liverpool are ahnormaiiy
small and England has sent large

Business in the corn market was on
a large scale and it probably was even

IRONCLAD OATH KEEPS
TWO TRADE SECRETS

There are two trade secrets at least
that the world at large may never
know, but which il is well worth the
while or inventors to study, writes Al
bert w Nilsdon in the Electrical EN-
perimenter One is the Chinese
method of making the bright ana
brilliant color known as vermiiion, or
Chinese red. and the other is a
Turkish secret--the inlayins OF the
hardest steel with gold or silver.
Among the Chinese and Turks these
two secrets are guarded well Appren-
tees. before they are taken for either
trade are compelled to swear an IRON
clad oath to reveal nothing of what
passes in the workshop. They must
also belong to families of high stand
ing. must pay large sum of money
as guarantee. and must furnish GER
tificates of good character and
honestly. These secrets have been
handed down faithfully from one gen
Grafton to another for hundreds OF
years.
