HAS 1T COME!

Has the long promised and looked
for relief to the agricultural industry
in the United States finally come to
the stage of formation? Will it have
the desired effect toward raising ag-
riculture to the plane of present-day
American industry?
The new farm board which the spe-
ciai session of Congress authorized
and which has the powers that can
be afforded within the limits of its
capital of S500,OOO.OOO. ass m b lie d
began with a meeting with President
Hoover in the cabinet room of the
White House. 1t has in its enroll
ment, men practically from all
branches of American industry who
have had wide experience in mar
keting. The board will consist of
eight members although one chair
was vacant at the opening conference,
and that one will be filled by man
selected by President Hoover from
wheat producing ranks.
The president charged the board in
their opening session with their deep
responsibility to agriculture saying,
Il am deeply impressed with the re-
sponsibilities which lie before you.
Your fundamental purpose must be
to determine the facts and to find So
lutions to a multitude of agricultural
problems. among them more nearly to
adjust production to need; to create
permanent business institutions for

ARE WE SATISFIED!

More accomplishments are placed on
record by those who are slightly dis
satisfied with themselves and their
efforts The world progresses around
that community that is made up of
such citizens. AS quoted in the i'm
perial Type Metal Magazine:
"A man is in. ideal circumstances
when he feels moderately dissatisfied
with his present standard of living,
but is confident that he can improve
his position by increased diligence
and added application.
Most of us in the United States
are i'm that situation. and that is the
reason why this country has gone for
ward so rapidly.
so far We have refused to make
undue concessions in return for the
luxury of security. We have empha-
sized opportunity. We believe and We
teach our youth that there is more
JOY in the tingle of risk than in the
apathy of security. This gives tone to
American life"
A fitting synonym for progression
Is ambition.

TAG YOU'RE IT

The Pine City American Legion
Post No. 81 is sponsoring a stimuli
taneous tag effort for the Salvation
Army home service appeal in all the
larger points of Pine, Mile Laos,
Kanabec, Isanti and Chisago counties
on next Saturday, July Goth, 1929, i'm
which the local girls in all these
points will do the tagging for this
good cause.
While the tag will be given to each
contributor for any amount dropped
in the tag boxes. it is hoped that many
will gladly pay one dollar and
even more for their tags and so help
the county to go over the top on the
assigned quota. No doubt, many who
have already contributed will also buy
and wear tag next Saturday.
To all who have contributed and
to all who may yet contribute either
time or money to this good cause, the
commander of the northern division
Of the Salvation Army. Major A. e.
Gresham, desires to say most hearty
thank you and he hopes that the Sal
walton Army in the future will merit
the kindly approval and help of all
folks in these counties for the work
the Army is aiming to do among all
unfortunates everywhere.

omies and giving such stability will
grow in strength over the years to
come. Through these efforts we may
establish to the farmer an equal OPP
portunity in our economic system
with other industries"
This is big charge and the effects
of the efforts of this body will be
watched by the whole United States
and even the entire civilized world.
Some Of the leading men in market
ing of the entire country have cast
their lot with this committee and will
work collectively to give the farmer
some of the aid he has a right to eX-
pect and which has been promised
him for the past several years.
OF course as every right thinking
person will agree, the agricultural
situation cannot be noticeably i'm
proved in a few weeks, but it is hoped
to improve it to the extent that the
farmer will realize noticeable i'm
provement in the marketing of this
years crop. If the board is success
full to the extent that it is intended,
the effects of its constant operation
will be felt over the years to come
and its virgin establishment today
will grow to be bigger power to-
morrow.

Effective Advertising

According to a recent survey of the
advertising field conducted by Dean
Robert A. Johnson of the College of
Business Administration, Marquette
University. newspapers are the most
effective as well as the most popular
advertising mediums. Not only that.
but they are the cheapest and least
expensive way of reaching the buying
public. The survey consisted of in
terviews with large numbers of peo-
pie in all walks of life.
The results show that the public
regards newspaper advertising the I'M
disputed leader in effectiveness, with
magazines second. billbOards third.
mail communications fourth and radio
fifth. Car cards, motion pictures,
hand bills and other media received
scattering mention.
Direct mail communications, that
is by mailing of circulars and pamph-
lets, was found to be the most ex-
pensiye as well as the least effective.
The large amount of such matter
numbering the mails. most of the
stuff of no Importance whatever to
most of the people who receive it. has
taught the public to regard circular
advertising as containing nothing of
value to them. They know that ir-
responsible concerns, as well as the
responsible ones, can use such med
iums and they seldom find any sub
stantial appeal in it. The large num-
Der of circulars each individual re-
ceives nullifies its effect as an adj
vertising medium, for they begin to
view it all more as a nuisance than
anything else. This is the reason
why the waste baskets in the post
offices, and the streets of our towns
and cities are usually cluttered up
with circulars that nobody wants.
Newspaper advertising is the cheap
est and best method of reaching the
public that has ever been devised,
Coming to the people in their favor
lite paper. which they want well
enough to pay for it. the advertising
is before every member of the family.
A sense of responsibility accompanies
the advertising as it is in a publica-
ton with which the reader is famil-
lar. 1t is surrounded with all of the
Importance of community life, and
brings a special appeal to the reader.

HOW Is IL TO BE DONE.

Colonel Charles A. Lindbergh has
remarked that airplanes will have to
be made more nearly foolproof than
they are today if they can be brought
into universal useiby the public such
>as the automobile. OF course there
have been wonderful strides in avia-
ton during the last decade but this
has been chiefly in demonstrations of
what the plane could do under expert
plotting. 1t has also been demon
strated that many planes and pilots
come to disaster when the latter has
had only limited supply of training
The ones who are making" aviation
are those who have spent years in
learning the fundamentals of flying
and who have devoted much time to
technical difficulties that might arise
ground. The average citizen hasn't
the time and inclination to spend this
amount of time in training to learn
to fly a plane just for personal con-
venience.
Planes need to be made foOlprOof,
but how is it to be done? When the
automobiles motor stops, the driver
does not have to think of anything
but the possibility of getting it started
again, but when plane motor stops,
the average civilian-pilot will shudder
to think of the direction to the near
est repair shop and motor trouble is
only one of the many things about air
hat MI hrin
the land-lubber. They are probably
coming-these foolprOof planes, but
how and when?
