SOMETHING FOR FARMERS

The farmer being a business nan
a seller of goods-he ought to adver
tise just as all other successful bust
ness men advertise. He, too, will bt
successful in hat little business mat
ter of winning bank accounts when he
But a first class way to find out that
advertising doesn't pay" is to adver
tise uintelligently. One of our justly
noted farm magazines prints two ad
vertisements that illustrate this point
very clearly indeed.
John Smith, having ten very fine
Holstein cows, and being nearly GU
of feed, ran this ad in his nearby town
paper:
For Sale-Ten cows. Price reason
able. John Smith, Plodtown."
Then John sat down and waited
There was nothing arousing, or inter
esting, OF attractive or appealing in
that ad. Moreover, it didn't tell the
facts hat farmers wanting to buy
cows wanted to know. A few letters
came to John, every n of them ask
ing questions. Some even desired tC
know what was the matter with the
cows that he was trying to sell "rea
sonably." John had to write back
answers to all the questions and then
a few more letters came back asking
more questions. Meanwhile, the feed
gave out and John had to sell in des
peration for less than two-thirds the
value to a neighbor who knew his
p~redicament.
Our magazine editor says that Ton
Jones put the following ad in his
country town paper:
For Sale - Ten heavy producing
grade Holstein cows, five years old
Price 500 each. Fresh in September
Forced to sell on account of feed short
age. Tom Jones. P%eptown."
During the next three days Tom got
several acceptances of his offer-right
off the bat-providing the COWS were
as he represented. of course The
farmers who read his ad didn't have
to ask questions. The ad told all they
wanted to know and they accepted
when the appeal was fresh in theil
minds.
Unintelligent advertising may mo-
pay, but intelligent advertising Away.
pays-always.
And there is nothing hard about it
Just write an ad that you yourself
would like to read if you were lookins
over the advertising columns.
Don't be misery with your words
in the long run they cost almost noth
Ding. But don't waste them either
folks. Tom didn't.

THE PROPOSAL MEETING

After spending al entire day ballot
ing the county republican proposal
mems meeting finally was able tC
name their ticket for the next primary
election. The court room was packed
with delegates from every precinct IN
displayed throughout the long, tedious
day. Several interesting contests took
place between aspiring candidates.
After the smoke had cleared away and
the hungry delegates adjourned to get
some supper the following names were
given out as the majority republican
ticket at the next primary:
For sheriff, John Roberts OF Brook.
ings.
For register Of deeds, Gus Risch of
Elkton.
For representatives, A. S. Mitchell,
G.. c. Olson and f. f. Thompkins.
For states attorney, f. A. Berke Of
Elkton.
For senator, John Lunden.
For county treasurer, j. f. Dricken
of White.
For county auditor, John Alton of
Bookings.
For clerk of courts. A. Nyman of
BroOkings.
For superintendent of schools, Ella
Swanson, Aurora.
For county surveyor, j. p. Hegeman.
For coroner, +. r. Bartling.
For justices of the peace, o. ID. Sim
kins, B. d. Moore, D. Sharp and ]. G.
Lung.
The longest and hardest fought con
test of the meeting was over the Office
of sheriff. Perry Bishop of Bruce, l.
II. Billick of Brookings, S. II. VanLan-
ingham and John Roberts were in the
race. On the eighth ballot the dead.
lock was broken and Mr.. Roberts re-
ceived votes in excess of 100 which
was required for nomination. The race
for the clerk of courts nomination was
close between A. Nyman and II. w.
Blakaly and the former won on the
bird ballot by a slim majority.
The only unanimous selections were
for senator and county auditor. John
Lunden received the unopposed en-
dorsement of the proposalmen for the
first named Office, while John Alton re-
ceived similar honor for the office Of
county auditor.
Four candidates, Ole Aslakson, John
Gruseth, f. n. Nelson and Gus Risch
were in the field for register of deeds
but Mr.. Risch won out easily. f.. A.
Berke was opposed by Attorney B. II.
Schaphorst of this city. j. A. Hege-
man was opposed by J.. p. Soderstrum
for county surveyor. Z. Z. Haugen
raced uns~uccessfully with j. e. Dricken
for the job of treasurer.
Without a doubt several of the un-
successful candidates will come out
for the primaries on the minority
ticket. The division of feeling among
the proposalmen would indicate that
minority candidates will stand a good
show for election at the primaries
next March.

Why SOME FARMS PAY

"Why do some farmers make more
than others?" asks H. d. Mccullough,
assistant farm management demon
strator in the State college extension
service. Are the differences due to
luck, or are there good reasons why
some farms pay more than others ?"
Most of the farmers who succeed
have well balanced FARMS is Mr.. Nc
Cullough's reply to his questions. "A
we'll balanced farm is one that is
larger than many in the locality, with
crop yields and returns from livestock
a little above the average yield for
the community, and on which men
and horses are kept busy the most
possible days each year. Good size.
large crop yields, high producing live
stock and efficient use of labor are
the four horses making up the team
that pulls a farm to success. If n
horse is weak it gets behind, the
team does not pull smoothly, and the
load is slowed up or stopped. If a
farm has a weak spot, that is, if it
is too small, or if it has poor crop
yields, Of low-producing livestock, or
if labor is not used efficiently, its net
income is slowed up and the farm
does not pay as it should. The we'll
balanced farms have good size, good
crops, good livestock, and use labor
efficiently. They have four evenly
matched horses all pulling together
for greater profits"
