An unexpected advance in call money
yesterday carried the rate at the close

ou Could See It
Was a Fine Town

"This must be a fine town, with q
strong spirit of cooperation be-
tween it and the surrounding farms.
I've never been there, but I'd like
to CO."
This remark was prompted by a
glance through the columns of one
of the best country semi weekly
newspapers published in the United
States, a paper which radiated
progress, good will and prosperity,
and unconsciously has come TO be
the best advertising medium its COM
munity possesses.
It is successful because it serves
the community faithfully and re-
fleets in each issue the life and the
work of the largest percentage Of its
readers. Service to the community
cannot be accomplished by an edi-
tor alone, however. He needs the
help of the farmer and his family in
several ways. Among these are:
By subscribing to the paper.
BY writing the editor or visiting
the office occasionally with items Of
The Mt. Sterling advocate., 1921-05-31

interest, intelligent criticism or
praise for good issues. This shows
interest and lets the editor know that
some one is watching.
BY advertising live stock, poultry,
produce, land or pure bred seeds.
By placing orders for job print
ing, such as bill heads, letter heads,
business cards and public notices in
the home printing office.
By telling merchants and profess
sional men when their advertisements
in the home paper are effective.
By helping the editor to secure and
keep alive, accurate correspondents
in each neighborhood in the COM
munity.

300 Scrub Sires
To Be Replaced

Sixteen counties have been can
xassed by county farm agents and
representatives Of the Louisville
Livestock Exchange and indications
are that approximately 900 scrub
bulls on Kentucky farms will be re-
placed by pure-bred animals when
the pure-bred sire sale is held at
Louisville June 2nd, in connection
with the better sires-better stock
movement, according to Wayland
Rhoads, extension specialist in beef
cattle production from the College of
Agriculture. The survey Of the DIFF
ferent counties was made for the
purpose of determining the number
of scrub animals which farmers will
replace and also the number of pure
bred sires which will be purchased.
Different counties are planning to
purchase as many as 25 sires at the
sale.

RENEWED TESTIMONY

No one in Mt. Sterling who suffers
backache,' headaches, or distressing
urinary ills can afford to ignore this
Mt. Sterling woman's twice-told
story. It is confirmed testimony
that no Mt. Sterling resident can
doubt.
Mrs. J. C. Mcdonald, lis Queen
street, Mt. Sterling, says:
II suffered with bachache and had
no energy to do my work, especially
mornings. had such dizzy spells l
would almost fall / had frequent
headaches and nervous spells. Ny
kidneys acted irregularly, too. I used
Doan's Kidney Pills from Land &
Priests Drug store and they streng-
thened my back, relieved the dizzi-
ness, headaches and other symptoms
of kidney trouble"
Mrs. Mcdonald gave the above
statement January 9th, 1917, and on
December IL, 1920, she added: 'I
have always a good word for Doan's
Kidney Pills since they cured me Of
kidney trouble. / am glad to again
give them my endorsement"

Full return to satisfactory busi-
ness conditions will be slow until the
minority Of business men and work
men who have ignored the principles
Of common honesty are aroused to
the necessity Of sound and decent
standards Of conduct, according to
Ebert II. Gary, chairman of the
United States Steel Corporation.
Speaking before the American
Iron and Steel Institute, Mr.. Gary,
who is president of the institute,
said the American people are not
buying enough to supply themselves
fully with the ordinary comforts of
life, although they have the dispo-
sition and the means to do so. This,
he explained, was due to the opinion
of the purchasing public that there
has not been complete and proper
readjustment Of prices.

ON ADVERTISING

A SUCCESSFUL housekeeper
~ these days is a business
woman. She has to be. She has
her budget systems and account
books. She figures closely to keep
expenses down. She is wise, shrewd
buyer.
She wastes neither time nor
money. She knows exactly what she
wants and where to get it at the
most advantageous price.
In this business Of keeping a home
she has a trustworthy associate and
assistant.
She'll tell you that it is News
paper Advertising and that she en-
ploys it diligently.
Advertising brings her cleaner
food-improves her personal appear
ance-eases her daily task and helps
take the humdrum out of life-tells
her when, where and how to find
things pleasureable and profitable
makes it possible for her to get one
hundred cents worth of real value
for every dollar she spends.
Every man and woman in this city
can make advertising a profitable
business associate. Reading the ad-
vertisements in this newspaper is the
one best way to keep in touch with
the lowest prices, the best qualities
and the newest commodities that
stores are offering and manufactur-
ers are putting out for your benefit.

The utility table," formerly
known as the Kitchen jitney' or
Kitchen ford" is being used by many
housewives in the state, according to
Miss Minerva Lawrence, extension

pose is to bridge distances.
Every housewife has to take many
trips between the dining room and

food and to clear the table after the
meal. One trip with the utility ia

dinner and supper.
1t is possible to serve the entire
dinner with one trip, together with
cool desserts, for there is place on
a lower shelf for such dishes.

if a rubber sheet is placed over the
tablet it is just the right height to
set the tub, and one woman uses it
regularly in this way. By such ser
vice she has everything close at hand.

uses.
The table is well proportional in
