DIRECT DEALING

Housewives appreciate receiv-
ing farm produce which they
know to be fresh. Many farm
ers within $50 miles of cities
have regular supplies of high
grade produce, the quality of
which they can guarantee. The
parcel post offers a means of di-
rect dealing between producer
and consumer, with profit to
both.
Parcel-post shipments are in
creasing in number, though
probably they always will affect
only small percentage of the
farm produce that goes 10 mar
ket. Dealing by parcel post sue
oeeds if the farmer is careful
to keep up the quality of his pro-
duce, packs it safely and attrac-
lively, and meets his engage
ments promptly-always suppos-
ing that the consumer also OBJ
serves business methods In the
transaction.
The United States department
of agriculture's Farmers Bulle-
tin 922, parcel Post Business
Methods" gives detailed sugges-
tons regarding means Of obtain
ing customers and methods Of
carrying on business, with SAM
pies of suitable letterheads,
bills, order blanks and other
business forms.

Millions are now suffering from the
after effects of the deadly "flu,"
fever or a cold. Their appetites are
poor; they are weak, and they are
waiting for their strength to come back.
If these people could only realize
that the return to health and strength
would be greatly helped by giving at
tention to the stomach-that is, remov
ing the acidity and toxic poisons from
the entire digestive tract, making it
act naturally, so that the body will
receive the full strength of the food
eaten-a great deal of suffering would
be saved to humanity.
Everyone knows that the disease IT.
self, and the strong medicines that
have been taken, upset the stomach,
leave it hot and feverish, the mouth
dry, the tongue coated, nasty taste,
and no desire to eat. This Is a poor
foundation to build new strength on.
Now, tens of thousands of people all
over this country are using EATONIC
for the purpose of cleaning these
poisonous after-effects right out of the
system and they are obtaining wonder
full results - so wonderful. that the
amazingly quick benefits are hardly
believable, just as shown in the re-
markable letter which is published
upon the request of this sturdy old Civil
War veteran. He is II years old. Read
what he says EATONIC did for him:
81 am an old soldier, past sew
enty-sey years. | had the Span
ish influenza and II left my stomach

A ParcelPost Package Well Wrapped and Addressed

printed stationery bearing the name
of the farm, with envelopes to match.
If the farm is not named an appropri-
ate name should be selected. A SIM
pie, though attractive and businesslike
letterhead can be printed without
much cost. 1t should give the name
and location Of the farm, the farmers
name, and simple statement of the
business. Elaborate and highly col
ored letterheads embellished with Illus
trations of buildings, fruits or animals
should be avoided.
Blank statement forms or invoices
to fill in and inclose with shipments
should be supplied. Persons receiving
produce by mail wish to know the
price of the shipment, and by the use
of printed statement forms the ship
per can furnish this information with
out much trouble.
Labelling Parcels.
Each parcel must bear the name and
address of the shipper, the name and
address of the person for whom in
tended, and the nature of the con-
tents, such as Fragile" or "Ferish-
able" AS tags frequently are torn off,
it is best to have this information
written or stamped directly on the
outer wrapper or container. If the
only mark of identity of producer and
consumer is on a tag and the tag is
lost, the parcel can neither be deliv-
TO
Producers who have business enough
to justify them may secure gummed
labels worded somewhat as follows:
From
Fair View Farm.
John Brown, Proprietor,
Blank, Virginia.
PERISHABLE.
EGGS.
The wording may be changed to suit
the product shipped, changing Eggs"
to Poultry" Butter" or "Vegeta-
bles," and "Perishable" to fragile"
as the case may require.
These labels, if properly applied,
should not come off. They will serve
as an advertisement and may result in
inquiries from other customers.
Business Relations With Customers.
Once contact has been made and
shipping begun it is important that
proper business relations be estab-
liShed and maintained, for on these de-
pend success The difficulty frequently
met in obtaining the first order makes
it important for the producer to use
businesslike methods to retain the
trade that he secures.
Whether person is successful in
parcel-post marketing depends largely
on his adaptability to this work. If
routine and detailed work is distaste-
full to him he may never learn how to
keep up business relationship. Thou
sands of persons who have been sue
cessful in obtaining customers have
been unsuccessful in keeping them.
The most important feature In a
business relationship is a square deal.
Good grading of produce, strict bust
ness honesty, prompt attention to cor
respondence and orders, and satisfac.
tory adjustment of complaints are
needed. The consumer as we'll as the
producer should do his part in these
matters.

This is only one case out of thousands
You should make the EATONIC test
In your own case at once. You have
everything to gain-not a penny can
you lose, for we take all the risk Your
own common sense, your own feelings,
tell you that good appetite, good d.
gestion, good stomach, with the fever
poisons and effects of strong medicines
out of your system. will put you on the
road to strong, robust health again.
You want to enjoy life again after
you have battled with the FLU" fever
or colds, or any other illness that has
taken your strength. You want to get
back your old-time vigor, be full of pep
and enthusiasm-be able to work with
ease, instead of listlessly, half-heart-
edly dragging out mere existence.
So be sure to take box of EATONIC
home with you today. We cannot urge
this too strongly. If EATONIC fails
to give you positive beneficial results,
1t will not cost you a penny. There is no
risk-the benefit is surely all for you.

MANY LIVES
ENDANGERED

Doctors declare that every winter
thousands of lives are needlessly sacri-
fced through neglect Of what at first
Is simple cold
There Is grave danger in allowing
cold to "wear Off" 1t Is more often
likely to wear away the lungs and start
the development of pneumonia or
other serious throat or lung trouble.
AT the first sign of cold you should
start taking Father Johns Medicine,
which is a Doctors prescription with
more than sixty years Of success in the
treatment of colds and coughs.
The gentle laxative effect Of Father
Johns Medicine drives out impurities
and the tonic food elements build new
health and strength to ward off further
attacks of disease.
The important point to remember is
that Father Johns Medicine is guar
anteed free from alcohol or dangerous
drugs in any form so it Is a safe
medicine for all the family to take.
