He Can't Afford It.
The other day one of our mer
chants said that he couldn't af
ford to advertise in the home
rewspapers. If the man's views
were not distorted, he would see
that he couldn't afford not to ad
vertise. Refusing to advertise is
his most expensive extravagance.
That same merchant will spend
hours telling of the "unfair" com
petition of the mail-order houses
who are his most aggressive and
dangerous competitors, yet the
methods employed by the mail
order houses which succeed are
the very ones which the mer
chant refuses to use. The mail
order house first of all is an Ad
vertiser. Advertising is the life
of its business. Every magazine
that enters the small town and
rural home carries the ad of the
mail-order house. Expensive cat
alogs are printed showing the
illustrations of the actual articles
Occasionally sheet3 are scattered
broadcast over the country as a
special come-on for the bargain
hunter. Instead of doing these
things in a smaller way through
the columns of his local paper,
the merchant who can't afford to
advertise sits down and "cusses"
his tough luck and wonders why
he can't get the business. He
never thinks he has a better op
portunity to reach the people in
his neighborhood than the mail
order house has. It doesnt'tcost
him as much as it does the out
sider; he can draw the people to
his store and show them the ac
tual article he is advertising, and
when they buy, they can take
their purchase home with them
instead of having to wait for sev
eral weeks for it. Advertising
i- an investment. It should be
charged to your selling cost. Fig
ure what percentage you have to
pay to advertise, then base a fifty-two
weeks campaign on the
computation. You can't lose. You
can't afford not to advertise!
Put on More "Airs."
Occasionally we hear it said
that Fulton county is "putting on
airs" since she has been holding
farmers' institutes under the
management of the State, buy
ing hundreds of automobiles,
building a railroad, and in many
other ways showing that she is
alive. Well, what are "airs"
for if not to be worn? Other
good people are wearing them,
therefore, what suggests the
idea that they are not becoming
to Fulton county? There is one
"air" that the News would like
very much to see adopted in the
County, namely, one-breed cattle
for any given community. The
advantages of raising stock in a
community where one bred is
the rule are many. One gceat
advantage is that a few costly
purebreed bulls will soon furnish
a community with sires, and then
by trading outside of blood re
lationship, with farmers who
have equally pure stock, the cost
ly experience of having to buy
sires every second or third year
will have been eliminated.
Herds, in a few years, would
soon be running high grade, and
"community fame" would soon
spread to other parts of the coun
try to bring in buyers of that
particular breed of stock. Let's
put on more "airs." It pays.
L'niorj Picnic.
