Adver tisino the Farm Sale

When one has decided to hold a
farm sale, the next question which in
trudes itself is how best to advertise
it. There are several good ways to
advertise the sale, chief among them
the country newspaper, auction sale
bills, and handbills. It is always wise
to advertise in the country newspaper.
But some developments of the last few
years have completely changed some
other methods of advertising farm
sales.
Following an ancient custom, one
of the most used and yet one of the
most ineffective ways of advertising
is by means of the sales bill intended
for posting along the roads of the
neighborhood and county. With the
advent of the automobile, the number
of patrons who can attend sale has
been greatly increased. Folks can
travel miles now where they used to
travel rods to an auction sale.
But the automobile has rendered al
most nil the value of posting bills as
means of advertising. When most
people drove horses or walked they
passed one of these bills slowly enough
so that they could read what was on
it. Moreover, they were not so rushed
but that they could stop, If necessary
to raed the sale bills. Also the horses
might need a rest. Then, too, the
sales were less frequent and bargains
fewer which made it necessary for
bargain hunters to be on the lookout.
There are only few places in the
Sc 4rskt h 1ryhS1 n
post bills. Nine out of every ten bills
posted are never read. Watch this
in your own locality and see if this
even is not too high percentage. In
fairly prosperous farming commun-
ity, the bulk of the highway travel is
with the auto and if these bills are
to be read from the machine, they
must be posted right at bend in the
road so that the reader gets straight
view Of them.
The usual sale selling devices are
the town newspaper, posting bills and
handbills. Posting bills is the most
expensive and the least productive of
results. We recently paid fifteen dol
lars for five hundred bills, used sixty
cents worth of tacks and two days of
time. But never again. If that mon
ey and effort had been spent adyer-
Using in nearby town newspapers, un-
daubtedly a much larger number of
people would have been notified, thus
causing a better attendance. If this
fifteen dollars had been invested in
handbills, they could have been sent
to a thousand farmers including post
age, printing and all. BY putting
one-cent postage stamp on each bill
and directing it, Rural route No. 1,
Box No. 2" or whatever box, the bills
would have been distributed where
they would have reached the people.
Handbills may also be put in auto.
mobiles while they are standing in
town on Saturday night. This, how
ever, does not reach very large num-
Der in comparison with the effort
which it requires.

attempts at punting or at forward
passes.
In the second quarter Council Bluffs
came back strong and their offensive
work was brilliant. Only once in this
period was the oval in their territory,
which was due to a tumble on Deni-
sons part. The Bluffs end snatched
up the ball and made brilliant so
yard run that brought the fans madly
to their feet.
In the fourth quarter Denison
fumbled forward pass which lost the
game for them, the Council Bluffs
quarter grabbed the ball and went over
the goal for a touchdown and goal
was kicked, which tied the score.
Several times during the game both
teams had excellent opportunities to
score, but lost.
Denison and Council Bluffs tied last
year, thus the tie game Saturday max
ing two consecutive tie games for the
teams.
A complete reorganization of the
Council Bluffs team during the early
part of last week and the whipping in
to shape of the players by the coach
had more to do with the tie game than
anything else. Council Bluffs was
worried and was willing to take chanc-
es in order to make the best possible
showing against Denison's crack team.
Denison has no apologies to make.
They have played better ball than they
did on Saturday.
The lineup was as follows:

GROWN JEWELS
 OUT OF HIDING
$30, 100000 Worth Carried z Through London Light
 ly Guarded.

London Jan. -(Correspondence of The Associated Press)-Crown jewels have been brought out of their war time hiding place and returned to the Tower of London. The removal was so informal that no one, perhaps, who saw a couple of automobiles containing four army men disguised as civilians, suspected that they were carrying $3O,O00,0O0 worth of jewelry, A peep into one of the cars would have revealed cardboard hat box, but the peeper wouldn't have known that it concealed the imperial state crown. Nor would he have guessed that the piece of rough, heavy, red cloth he was seeing covered the royal sceptre, with it's famous Cullinan diamond. Insignificant looking boxes and parcels were the other crowns, coronets, orbs and the rest of the royal regalia,
 The guards were two army officers and two n-commissioned officers. The officers wore silk hats and frock coats, and the non-commissioned off, cers black overcoats and derbies.
