BELIEVES IN IT'S POWER

In the past month Walter L. Con-
away of near Georgetown, Delaware,
placed an advertisement in the class
flied columns of the Milford Chron-
icle stating that he wanted to sell a
tractor owned by MIN. He tells the
story of the results from that adver-
tisement in the following letter, un-
der date of September 18th, in which
he auSO ordered its discOntinuance
etc. His letter says:
Milford Chronicle Pub. Co.,
Milford, Delaware.
Dear Sirs:-The advertisement I
placed in your paper brought me
wonderful success; have had several
inquiries from different parts of the
country and would advise anyone to
advertise in the Milford Chronicle
when they have anything for sale
and get results.
Yours very truly,
WALTER L. CONAWAY.
Each week we receive letters of a
similar kind from those who have
used the Milford Chronicle to sell
which apparently would
be hard to dispose of in a local
but, with the whole
of two counties in Delaware and a
part of several counties
in Maryland as field, there is al
ways certain to be some one who
wants what another has no further
use for. Incidentally, the Milford
Chronicle Company has frst-class
return tubular boiler of twenty-five
horse power, and fine twenty horse
7ower engine-both in perfect con-
lition and as good as new, which is
IN the market for quick buyer at a
bargain. 1t can be seen at the plant

urned to electric motors for power,

lin farmers cribs is not much more
than half last year. The quality OF
Ohio corn is estimated at 10M above
the average, and quality for the
whole country is definitely higher
than usual. The total crop is esti-
mated at little more than 3,000,-
100000 bushels, which is about
100,000,000 above the average for
recent years. On the other hand the
Ohio crop is estimated at 1S5, $780,
700 bushels as compared with 95.-
coo 900 last year. and an average Of
146, 100000 for a number Of years
Ohio buckwheat yields are about
normal, and the total production of
this crop will be above last year pro-
vided the weather permits threshing
to be completed. The Ohio potato
crop is estimated at 100000
bushels as compared with 11,50O,-
900 last year.
The larger Ohio potato crop in the
face of a United States crop more
than 100,000,00o bushels less than
last year, means much money for
Ohio growers. The increased pro-
duction in this state comes in the
late potato sections. for the early
crop was not so favorable.
