PRACTICE PLEASING TO DEALER
Experienced Buyer Has Advantage Of
Skill in Estimating Not Possessed
by Seller--SmalI Platform

prepared by the United States Depai T.
ment OF Agriculture)
Guessed weights and measures" are
seldom profitable for the farmer. This
practice is unbusinesslike. 1t indicates
u carelessness Of the value of the thing
he Is selling, and the buyer would be
more than human If he did not take
some advantage. A guessed bnshe"
of potatoes is more likely to measure
Az pecks than 3h.
Where sales are based on weight the
grower Is paid for what he delivers.
When the bar balances at 100 pounds
both parties know that full value has
been given and received.
An Argument for Scales.
The best argument for the installa-
tiOn of good set of scales in con-
yenient place on the farm is that, while
the produce dealer is nearly always
willing to buy by guess" he is sell
dom willing to sell that way. The
most conspicuous piece Of equipment
In the vegetable stall, the market, or
the grocery Is an accurate pair Of
scales. The produce that is bought
by guess" is sold by ounces. The deal
er is practical buyer and at
tains some degree of accuracy in max
ing his estimates Thus he has the
advantage of skill not possessed by the
farmer, who lacks experience in max
ing his estimates.
The dealer has another advantage
not held by the farmer. AS he sells by
weight, he has means of checking
the accuracy of his guess. If he finds
that the weight Of steer, for instance,
was less than he estimated it to be
when he purchased it, he may recover
his loss by charging the customer
more or by taking out the loss on the
next guessed" purchase he makes.
The loss Is likely to fall not on the
dealer, who incurred it, but upon in
nocent parties.

WHAT A TONIC
DOES FOR YOU
AND WHY YOU NEED 1T, IN so MANY
INSTANCES WHEN YOU ARE RUN DOWN.
NERVOUS OR HAVE HAD TO ENDURE
GREAT STRAIN OR WORRY OF ANY KIND.

A tonicis something which puts tone,
energy, strength and endurance into you.
1t gives a push to your heart, making it
pump the blood over your body more
vigorously ; it makes your lungs expand
more fully and thereby take up more
strengthening oxygen from the air you
breathe; it makes your kidneys work
better and carry off the poisons which
would otherwise accumulate in the body;
it makes your digestive apparatus perform it's
work better and give your blood the material
it needs for feeding and sustaining your body; it
makes your brain act more vigorously and en-
abIes you to think more accurately and for long
periods without fatigue, thus bringing you
greater success in whatever business, profession
or undertaking you are engaged.
When you are rundown, nervous. half SICK.
down-hearted and about ready to give up, eX
perience of many years has shown that one OF
the best remedies to pull you out of this bad
predicament Is good old organic iron. But be
sure tn iron you take is organic iron, the kind
that is found in plants. and not metallic iron
which people usually take. Organic iron may be
had from your druggist under the name Of
Nuxated Iron. 1t often increases the strength.
energy and endurance of weak, nervous. tired
out folks in two-weeks' time, Beware OF sub
stitutes. Always look for the word "Nuxated"
on every package and the letters N. ]. ON every
tablet. Sold by all druggists.
