Western Electric Company,
Dear Sirs:

when a salesman begins to tell me
his article is the best ON the market
that's my signal to wish him a pleasant
trip back to town. Looks to me as if he
is more wrapped up IN making a sale
than in studying my needs and advising
me what is best for me-. That's my
interest, and it ought to be his.
mot long ago when I was in the
market for a power and light outfit, I
had the opportunity of seeing half a
dozen plants in operation. Some of
them looked pretty good to me, but a
I never had any experience with an
electrical system before, / was a bit
puzzled.
Then along came a salesman whose
talk steadied me.

No plant is best for every purpose and

I want to say that with the Western

BIG CROPS IMPROVE.

Also there Is more oats this year
than last, more tobacco. more pota-
toes, more rice. more sugar, both
cane and beet, and especially hay
crop of such proportions as should
have a marked effect in reducing the
cost of live stock and Of dairy and
poultry products.
Lack OF cars seems to be the great
est handicap which business is up
against, the report pointing out that
complaints are being received from
all sections OF the country on this
subject.
While ranges and pasturage, save
here and there, are in good condition.
the live stock industry is not in a
prosperous condition, the general
statement being that feed is too high
in proportion to the price Of live
stock.
While there are fewer cattle and
hogs than last year, it is said there
are probably as many sheep, while
the poultry and dairy interests are
steadily increasing, despite the high
cost of feed.
