Our brother, R. A. Barry, in the
Stuttgart, Arkansas, Free Press of
last week had considerable to say
about advertising in country news
papers and we feel that there are
yet points on that subject which have
not come to his knowledge, or have
not required to his mind since he left
the newspaper business in West Ten
nessee towns and went to the newer
and more enterprisnig town commun-
tiles on the other side of the Missis-
sippi river. Newspapers in Western
towns almost invariably enjoy lib
eral advertising patronage-while in
West Tennessee the reverse is usual
~ the case. Over here there are gen.
orally few merchants who are suffi-
GENTLY liberal and progressive to ad-
vertise their wares, but town after
town has in them dealer after dealer
who persistently refuses to patronize
the papers which are anxious to be
their best friends-and the cost to the
ordinary man is inconsiderable. We
remember this same brother of ours
living in a eWst Tennessee town, and
there publishing one of the county pa
pers, in. which a dry-goods firm took
the position that if they advertised
their customers would believe the
house would mark up its goods in or
der to pay the additional expense of
advertising is, the firm made
such argument, but of course did not
believe a word of its own statement
Some men will advertise and some
will not, just as some men will give a
begger Is cents to buy a meal, while
others will not.

Vermont Fruit Prospects.

Statistician V. A. Sanders, employed
comparatively by the United States
department of agriculture and the ag.
ricultural departments of the New
England states, makes the following
report in regard to Vermont fruit pros
poets as of Aug. |, 1921:
The several spring freezes and frosts
caused very uneven blossom and set
of fruit, and the long drought and
heavy drop reduced tne crop still more.
Present conditions forecast that the
state will have about 80 per cent of
full crop, as reported by the growers.
This would mean about 100000 bar.
rels compared with 10000 in 1920
and 100000 in 1919. Best prospects are
reported from Addison, Chttenden
and Grand Isle counties, in the Cham
plain valley and from Orange county
in the Connecticut valley, while Ben
nington and Rutland counties. which
have several young orchards Just com
ing into good bearing. report crops
very light, some varieties being prac-
tically a failure. Scab is quite bad.
otherwise quality, size and coloring
are quite good.
Mcintosh are very light here and
throughout New England; Gravenstein
compared with full crop. in per cent
are 80; wealthy, as; greetings. 40;
Ben Davis, SO, and Baldwins, 80.
