ADVERTISING PAYS WELL.
The Farmer Who Uses Want Ads
Sells His Goods First.

Many business firms would be com
PEELED to quit business in six month
if they did not advertise. Farming
is business. Why should not this
farmers advertise the same. as Other
business men? The farmer that ad.
vertises his produce, is the one that
sells it first. Look about and yot
will see that this is true.
Want ads are business getters, anC
pay well if properly written. Many
rural weeklies feature the want adj
from farmers, and farmers profit by
them. There are right and wrong
kinds of want ads. It is all in the
way they are written.
How do you like this ad?

Which of the ads will sell the SOW
An effective want ad tells what is
for sale, includes a brief descrip-
ton: the age, the breeding, the price
Many ads without the price and de-
