Hill, Ala, September II.

The Advertiser has received the
clipping below from the Tallapoose.
News, published at Camp Hill, Ala,
where Rev Charles Pleasant Sullivan,
a native Of this county, died on Sun
day, Sept. II. Rev. Sullivan was the
last surviving brother Of Mr. William
ID. sullivan, ST., Of Tumbling Shoals,
this county, and is remembered by
the older residents of the county. Be-
fore entering the ministry Rev. Sulli-
van practiced law here and in Ala
bama and also contributed extensively
to the newspapers, besides writing
two books which, however, he never
saw fit to publish. He was one Of the
few surviving former slave holders OF
the South and was a successful adyo-
cate at the bar.
The following is the tribute to him
taken from the Alabama paper:

Albany. Jan. n.
OF all the business failures In 1920
"a per cent. OF them were Of firms that
did not advertise their wares. One OF
the greatest flnaucial agencies In Amer
lea discovered this fact. and George A.
Cullen. vice-president OF the North
American Fruit Exchange, used It as a
text on which he based his speech on
cooperative Marketing delivered to-
day at the annual meeting OF the New
York State Agricultural Society. The
meeting was held in the Assembly
Chamber.
After setting forth the above cited
statistics, Mr.. Cullen reminded the
farmers before him that they must
remember that neither Dun nor Brad

Of New York State--a fact that made
the financial agency's statement all the
moro significant. Then he went on to
say:

Think OF the Pacific coast raisin

secret from all the world that they
produce the finest Of seed potatoes and

Wake up, New York growers. and

Eventually why not now? And that
reminds me. Did It ever occur to you
as singular that the millers advertise

the superior grade OF wheat out of
which that flour is made never advertise
wheat? And that the shoe manufac-
turers advertise shoes, while the farmers
who produce the superior hides out OF
which those shoes are made never adver-
tlse their products? Why do Armour
and Welch get all the good will asset
out OF advertising their particular brands
OF grapejuice, while the growers, who
produce the best quality Of grapes out
of which that juice Is made. establish for
no reputation with the public
and hence are always at disadvantage
in dealing with the Juice makers?
