Value OF Proper Advertising Cited

Stewart said. 1.-THE smaller re-
taller particularly tends to adj
vertise only when some time
ly' opportunity presents itself.
He, often fails to recognize in
advertising a powerful, sales
producing force that is worthy
of as much careful planning,
study and control as any other
aspect of the business"
A brief list of "do's" and
"don'tS" are given in the
leaflet that will assist the
small retailer in preparing
advertising copy. Costs of adj
vertising and timing are dis
cussed generally.
In addition to Small Mar
keters Aids, Mr.. Stewart an
nounced that the Small Bu-
siness Administration also is
sues two other series of freq
leaflets, Management Aids fox
Small Manufacturers, and
Technical Aids for Small Ma
nufacturerS.

One Of the biggest problems
for the small retailer after he
has chosen his site of opera
tons is to lure customers into
his store, according to a new
leaflet announced today by
Edward J. Stewart, Regional
Director of the Small Business
Administration for this area.
The leaflet, Effective Adver-
Using for Small Retailers is
No. 2 in the Agency's new Sc
ries of Small Marketers Aids
can be obtained upon request
at any of the SBA field offices.
Mr., Stewart said the best
way to bring customers into
store is through effective ad-
vertiSing and the primary step
in planning an effective ad-
Vertising campaign is to de-
eide what you want advertis-
ing to do for you.
Much retail advertising is
Ineffective because it is poor

inadequate in coverage, "Mr.

Poultry
Egg Promotion
Set for January
BY BOYD ELLIS

BY THE TIME this reaches you an
other Christmas viii have passed and
we viii be on Our way into the new
year. I sincerely hope each of you
had a very merry Christmas and
wish you most happy and prosperous
new year.
Once again the Poultry and Egg Ma
tional Board is going all out to help
the egg producer To do this they have
again designated January as Egg
Month" During the entire month of
January Mrs. Housewife will be en-
couraged through the press and radio
to serve more eggs with the meals
she prepares. Along with information
explaining how good eggs are for us
she will be given new recipes for cook
ing
Besides being good to eat, eggs are
also high in food value. Eggs are in
Guided in health diets from babyhood
to old age to assure adequate intake
of high quality protein, vitainins and
minerals. A daily serving of only two
eggs will supply 26 per cent of the
iron, IS per cent of the phosphorus and
22 per cent of the vitamin A needed
by an average adult.
People are eating more eggs today
than ever before. The average per
capita consumption for 1854 will prob
ably be 412, about dozen more per
person than in 1858. This large increase
in consumption is probably due to the
constant availability of high quality
eggs. Improved production, marketing
and merchandising methods assure us
of high quality product the year
