We've been asked how it is that our ad- vertising rings so true.
 We'll, we try to say less in praise of an arti- cle than might be truth fully said
 And, we write it our selves.
 Much business writ ing is composed blocks away from the mer- chandise described and by men who do not know or care, except for the effect of their phrases and how their stock of superlatives suffers!
 Can any man outside a business know as much about a business as one who lives and breathes it all day long?

Shrinkage of Corn Influences It's
Value.

How much do farm grains shrink
when in storage? This question is
frequently asked by farmers, particu-
larly respecting corn, since the amount
of shrinkage influences the weight of
the bushel; this would, of course, in
fuence the price for corn.
Tests at the Ohio Experiment Sta
ton show that we'll matured corn has
an average shrinkage of about 20 per
cent, the amount ranging in an Swear
test from 6.5 to PIT. Corn that has
been stored when damp shrinks from
8 to 10 per cent more, it has been
found.
If corn sold at 81 bushel in early
fall well-matured corn will be worth
$1.05 on December 1. By March of
the following year s1.1O would be a
fair price for the same bushel of corn.
The increase after March is gradual,
reaching a value of $125 by June l..
In short, then, corn should be pur-
chased at about 20 per cent less in the
fall than on June l of the following
year.

new fiat in row where the entrances
were all similar. The first evening
when came home I passed our en-
trance without observing the number.
Finding the outside door open ran
up to the second floor, tried my key,
and could not unlock the door. Then
I knocked and, hearing no response,
shook the door violently. When q
strange man in dressing gown
opened the door i apologized pro-
fusely.
The next evening when ran up the
stairs, tried my key, and heard a
mans heavy tread approaching l had
sense enough to realize my mistake
and made dive for the outside door.
Just then the mans voice called
over the rail: "Who is it?"
"Oh," I said, "I'll never do 1t again."
and never did.-Chicago Tribune.

Undecisive Character.

A person of undecisive character
wonders how all the embarrassments
In the world happened to meet ex-
actly in his way, to place him just in
that one situation for which he is
peculiarly unadapted but in which he
Is also willing to think no other man
could have acted with facility or con-
fidence. Incapable of setting up a
firm purpose on the basis of things
as they are, he is often employed in
vain speculations on some different
supposable state of things, which
would have saved him from all this
perplexity and irresolution. He thinks
what determined course he could
have pursued If his talents, his health,
his age had been different; If he had
been acquainted with some one person
sooner, if his friends were, in this
or the other point, different from what
they are; or If fortune had showered
her favors on him. And he gives him
self as much license to comnlajn as
if all these advantages Lid been
among the rights of his nativity, but
refused, by malignant or capricious
fate, to his life.-Rev. John Foster.

SNAILS RETURNING TO PARIS
That Is, They Are Again to Be Served
In Smart Restaurants Of the
Gay City.

For the first time for years tho
Paris RESTAURANTS are now sending
orders to the snail farms in the prov
inces, as well as to Italy and Switz-
erland. The snails are collected dur
Ing June and July by women and
children, and must be as tenderly
handled as eggs, for on no account
must the shell be cracked. At the
farm they are placed one by one on
grass in fine wire enclosures, and are
fed on lettuce and cabbage. A large
cabbage in an enclosure with two hum
dred snails will disappear In an hour.

Gas the snails are called when they
run about) all the year round to meet
the tastes of less fastidlous diners,
and the largest gray-shelled snail
the best of the edible ones-is in dam
ger of being eXterminated by being
collected during the breeding season.
runners" must not be packed with
fresh grass or they will overeat them
selves, have Indigestion and so spoil
their flavor. There are people who
collect the larger gray shells to sell
to the smaller restaurants that an
Inferior order of snail, or even the
humble mussel, may be substituted.
The snail which is to tempt the palate
of the epicure must not be eaten be-
fore the last week in September. The
snails are usually packed in fiat boxes
or baskets containing from 1000 to
1900 each. Their storage Is not an
easy matter. for they must be kept
at carefully regulated temperature,
for a degree too much heat will de-
ceive them into the belief that spring
has arrived, and they will wake and
crawl about.

Now eX-Chancellor Won Bethman-
Hollweg comes forward to take the
blame for the war from the ex-kaiser's
shoulders. The imperial goats are lin
ing up in procession, which is any
thing but the impressive spectacle they
evidently think it makes upon the en-.
tente nations. And very likely none
would be more astonished than them
selves If their vicarious offering were
to be accepted. AS propaganda for ex-
citing sympathy for the kaiser, 1t is

Spring Wheat Uncertain-Fly May
Injure Crop.

That spring wheat is an uncertain
crop for general culture in Ohio is
pointed out by the Department of
Agronomy at the Ohio Experiment
Station. Their information is based
upon cultural experiments, in which
the average yield of spring wheat has
been 18 bushels to the acre for six
years, while winter wheat, with proper
fertilization, has averaged close to "a
bushels, over period of 25 years.
Plenty of fertility and early seeding
has been found to be necessary for
spring wheat culture when it is carried
on in Ohio. Some of the land in
Northwestern Ohio has been found to
be adapted to spring wheat, but not
all soils in Ohio in general.

AGRICULTURAL NOTES
See What Pruning and Spraying Did
to This Orchard.

Good management made an old un-
productive orchard produce 160 BUSH
els of good, saleable apples the past
season on the farm of c. s. Osburn
of Newark township, Licking county.
This orchard was % years old, bad
ly infested and infected with all of the
common orchard insect pests and dis
eases, and for years had not produced
bushel of perfect apples. Last sea-
son, after pruning, the orchard was
sprayed five times as follows: Before
budding, at budding, at petal fall, two
weeks after petal fall, and in July.
At picking time the apples were
thoroughly inspected and actual counts
We're made. Worm control was 95 per
cent effective. Scab and scale were
almost completely controlled. How
ever, very few apples were unsafe
able because of blotch. The invest
ment of labor of pruning, spray ma
terial and cost of application was rs
cents per tree.
The work was done in cooperation
with the Licking County Farm Bureau.

throughout the state also puts spring
wheat in the more doubtful list of
farm crops, because the spring brood
of the fly always attacks the newly
sown spring wheat, since it is much
more tender than the growth of win
ter wheat. The infestation of fly is so
heavy that entomologists at the Ohio
Experiment Station do not advise SOW
