assets. So does a dealer of manufac- turer advertise when oversold-he takes out a business insurance policy. He insure two assets, one tangible the other intangible. The first, his present customers; the second, prospective customers.
 Advertising accomplishes this by building up good will and favorable reputation. It is accomplished by the psychological factor that when man wants something and can't get 1t, he wants it all the more. Thus advertis ing when oversold is expressed as busI- ness insurance because it creates de ferred sales
 Summer Advertising
 consideration of this subject is es pecially timely since, with hot weather approaching, comes the annual ten dency to cut down on or ''cut out" ad- vertising. The reason for this seems to be the general belief that, business being slow during the summer months, advertising will be superfluous.
 Recent results show that the man who thinks business is slow in the summer time is probably right; and so is the man who thinks it is good. It IS a question of attitude and advertis- ing is the factor which can convert summer business from the slow" class to the good"
 For prime evidence that dull summer months are cureable consider the toy business. No line of, goods is restricted to shorter season. For many years the toy dealer who had any stock left over after Christmas cut a sorry figure. Yet today we find retailers all over the country selling toys the year round, summer and winter, with marked suc- cess, because they do not fear the summer bogey. Another line equally as reasonable and restricted to the holiday period was walnuts.
 | Not so long ago the walnut man who had any stock left over after Christmas l counted it a dead loss. However, the walnut growers organized and began advertising. Before long they changed a nations habits and stretched the l season for sales from one week year l to fifty-two.
 New Ideas For Old The fruit growers did the same thing with oranges and lemons. So did the | date and raisin producers and the apple raisers of the northwest. In the local field the retailer can solve the some problem in the same way. Fur thermore the advertiser who lays out during a season simply lessens the value of his past advertising. Say he has been talking to 10000 1 persons during a busy season and has sold to 1000 of them. Is he going to allow the other 5000 to forget all he | has told them? If he does it permits his competitors to gain their attention and, in selling, reap the benefit of his already well laid groundwork
 The advertiser who does not keer advertising, busy season or dull, all lows his name to be forgotten, and his advertising investment to depreciate In time it costs him more to regain the patronage lost than it would to have
 carried on the investment. In Other
 words it is bad business to let the busi-
 ness insurance policy lapse.

 Today the big problem in merchan- dising is not so much that of selling as ''delivering the goods when sold. Manufacturers in practically every line are sold out for months ahead and deal CTS are finding it difficult to replenish stocks.
