to create consumer demand and
consumer preference. With this de-
mand as fact all selling plans have
a chance to succeed. Without it they
fail. The only chance for salesman
ship to succeed without an existing
demand is for craftsmanship to assume
the task that belongs to advertising
the task of creating demand.
If the present efforts that are being
put into selling were amply supported
by corresponding effort to create
consumer demand through Advertis-
ing, the business conditions of this
country would be rapidly changed
into an era of great prosperity--in
spite of Old World conditions and
everything else.
The proof of this is in the fact
that right now, under these very con-
ditions, the manufacturers who are
putting proper emphasis on creating
a demand for their product, as well as
selling it, are doing big business and
are actually getting the high turnover
that others are trying so stren,ously
to get through intensive selling.

Two Sides of Turnover

The alert business man dealing with
present day conditions knows that
the big word to-day is Turnover"
Whether he be merchant, manufac-
turer, jobber, or banker, he sees that
one thing with a clear vision unbiased
by the limits of his own business. 1t
is in the air, and on the tip of every
tongue.
And yet many of them-entirely
too many-are thinking on only one
side of Turnover. They think of it as
meaning rapid selling-putting money
in and getting it out quickly and at
a profit. They realize that they must
put greatly increased efforts back
of all their plans for selling and dis
tribution.
The other half of Turnover is the
consumer All selling plans and efforts
fail if the consumer doesn't want to
buy. His desire for the product must
be created. He must meet the seller
half way. He must be in a mood to
buy before the salesman meets him
across the counter.

prepared by the UnissS ssf,INs States Department
Dirt from the beet dumps apparent
ly is the most common means OF
spreading the sugar-beet nematode and
should be the first to receive attention
in planning control measures, accord
ing to Farmers Bulletin 124S, The
Sugar Beet Nematode In the Western
States, prepared by Gerald Thorne and
L. A. Giddings and now ready for dis

ment Of Agriculture.
Prevent Scattering Soil.
Since the removal OF dirt from the
dumps seems to be the only practical
method Of disposing of the thousands
of tons of soil annually screened from
the beets, says the bulletin, precau-
tions must be taken to prevent scat
tering the soil containing nematodes.
Wagon boxes should be tight enough
to prevent soil jarring out along the
roads and in the fields. Dump dirt
should be disposed of In holes,
swamps, or waste corners where there
Is the least danger Of its being scat
tered.
The practice Of growing beets year
after year on the same field gives the
nematodes an excellent opportunity OF
becoming established If they are once
introduced. A definite system Of crop
rotation Is said to be advisable with
not more than two years Of beets In
succession. The fertility Of the soil
will thus be maintained, and much OF
the danger from insect pests and plant
diseases will be avoided at the same
time.

Animal Feed Of Some Kind, High in

Meat scrap or some other animal

Department of Agriculture found that
pen of pullets, on free range, which
did not get meat scrap or any other

of from 125 to $50 eggs from pens fed

MUST PRODUCE FEEDER HOGS
Test, to Be Made of Economically
Raising Animals In South to
Supply Corn Belt.

The possibility Of economically pro-
ducing feeder hogs in the South for
supplying the corn belt with the extra
hogs needed for. consuming the corn
crop will be investigated by the Unit
ed States Department Of Agriculture
in cooperation with some Of the South
ern states. This spring, work on the
problem was begun at Mcneil. Miss.

sist in the work. The idea Is to test
out the growing and marketing Of hogs
at a weight of about 100 pounds. using
both the lard and bacon types.
The growing of feeder hogs is an
industry which should be developed,
as the corn belt Is in need Of more
shoats than are usually produced
there. Similar experiments to those
being made in the South will be tried
later In the Northwest and Southwest.
