FOR
YOUR INSPECTION
The merchant and manufacturer who advertise, ac-
tually are placing their merchandise before you for
inspection. They invite your most critical attention
and an uncompromising comparison.
And their advertisements, so to speak, say to their
products: “We have introduced you to the public—
now stand on your own merits.”
If the manufacturer and merchant did not have con-
fidence in their wares, they would hesitate to call at-
tention to them. For advertising rigidly tests the
maker, the seller and the merchandise.
Business so tested, and found not wanting, is pros-
perous.
In the long run, you can depend on the man who ad-
vertises, as well as on his product. That is one reason
why people have found that it pays to read advertise-
ments.
It is through advertising that the excellent things of
the world are brought to the attention of those who
are seeking for the best and most economical way to
spend their money.

Read the advertisements. They are news.

MARKETING

ADVERTISING PRINTING
V kets do enough business to war
rant continued advertising unless it
he small classified space, the value of
advertising printing as a follow-up to
newspaper publicity should not be
overlooked,
Cards, folders, dodgers, blotters, la-
bels, stickers, food charts, recipes and
other such material tie in very well
with newspaper advertising, to say
nothing of helping to make new cus-
tomers which come from the recom
mendation of satisfied buyers,
The kind of printed material to use
depends upon the market, what is sold
and where it is located. [n the past
few years operators of roadside and
farm markets which are off the main
highway or a bit difficult to find, are
including maps in their printing and
advertising to guide prospective cus
tomers.
HILE few roadside or tarm mar
Recipes are well liked; in fact, di-
rections on cooking will belp sales,
especially of new crops. When broc-
coli first made its appearance on the
roadside market which we patronize,
my wife didn't know how to cook it.
The farmer told her. And Italian
squash makes a delicious dish when
stuffed with meat, It, too, was pre-
pared according to the advice of the
vegetable grower. A poultry farmer
who sells dressed chicken direct
wishes he could obtain recipes which
would guide his customers. He advo-
cates different weights and ages for
certain purposes—that is, roasting,
stewing, etc., but when housewives do
not follow directions and don't get the
desired results, they often blame the
chicken.
One of the best pieces of printed
advertising I have seen Is a so-called
health chart. It was used by road-
side market owners in Cook county,
Illinois. The heading: “For Those
Who Are Healthy and Those Who
Would Like to Be.” The chart, made
up of three columns, listed the min-
erals and vitamins essential to body
health, told their effect on the system,
and then listed the fruits, vegetables,
eggs, nuts and other farm produce in
which they were contained.
The chart attracted an unusual
amount of interest. Doctors comment-
ed upon It as being a fine thing to
place in the hands of consumers. Not
one piece of this literature, which was
avallable in racks hung in front of
the markets, was thrown away after
first glance.
In Essex county, New Jersey, where
roadside markets are grouped in an
association, County Agent IR. A. Har-
man helped the farmers draw up a|
series of four advertising cards. On
the front side of each card, which
measured 314 by 51 inches, was a
picture of the association sign or em-
blem which was on display before all
member markets. “Fresh Farm Prod-
ucts,” in large heavy type, was the
display line on the first card. The
second line said “Quality Goods—Hon-
estly Packed.” Below was sufficient
room to stamp in the name and address
of each member. On the reverse side
was a little history of the organiza-
tion telling what it meant to both
consumer and farmer, alike,
All of the four cards were sea-
sonal. The second card had “Fresh
Vegetables” in large letters on the
front side, with recipes for canning
tomato juice, making tomato cocktail,
sauted tomatoes, stuffed tomato salad
and some information on heme ecan-
ning in general. No. 3 carl stressed
Sweet corn, with recipes and the last
of the series was devoted to “Fresh
Candled Eggs”—day-old eggs. The val-
ue of fresh eggs produced by chickens
fed balanced rations of feeds rich in
vitamins and minerals, and their value
in feeding babies and adults as well,
was stressed. Recipes on various egg
dishes fill the back side of the card.
“The cards did a fine job of adver-
tising,” said County Agent Harman.
“They carried the message of the as-
sociation and have made customers for
the roadside markets displaying the
association sign. It was nothing un-
usual for customers to ask for several
of each card. Presumably they keep
a set for reference and pass out the
others to friends and neighbors.”
Printed paper bags are now regard-
ed as fine advertising—and cheap, too,
since the printing costs little extra if
done at the time the sacks are ordered.
John Haley of Centre Groton, Conn.
relates the story of a woman telling
her friend that she had been In the
country buying vegetables from a
farmer, only to have the friend de-
clare she bought from a dealer, point-
ing out that producer-owned roadside
markets in that section used bags on
which their names and addresses were
printed.
Package Inserts are good advertis-
ing, especially if they carry messages
on future crops. Tales of new machin-
ery or equipment which produce better
fruits or vegetables, aid in making for
better quality or cheapen production.
The more homey and friendly these
messages, the better. Customers real-
ize you are a farmer and not a trained
advertising writer. A geod example of
a package insert is that used by F. R.
Dolman, Ohio fruit grower. It says:

as a sauce for cottage pudding or
other cakes.
1-2 cup sugar
1 cup boiling water
1 tablespoon corn starch
2 tablespoons butter
1 1-2 tablespoons lemon juice
Few grains nutmeg (if desired)
1-4 teaspoon salt
Mix sugar and corn starch. Add
boiling water gradually, stirring
constantly; boil five minutes. Re-
move from fire, add butter, lemon
juice, nutmeg and salt. A very
tasty vanilla sauce may be made
over the same recipe, with the ad-
dition of 1 teaspoon of vanilla in-
stead of the lemon.

DEVELOPS POULTRY
WHICH CANNOT FLY
Penguin Variety Gets Away
From Fence Problem.
“Penguin” poultry, which cannot fly
over a two-foot fence, may end for all
time the quarrels that so often arise
between people who keep chickens and
their gardening neighbors. This hap-
py possinllity is due to the discovery
of an inherited character in poultry
called “self-clipping.”
Dr. D. C. Warren of the Kansas ag-
ricultural experiment station, who has
studied the inheritance of this char-
acter, finds that the flight feathers of
the wings are defective and break off
as they grow, so that the wing remains
permanently “clipped.” This condition
Is Inherited according to the so-called
Mendelian laws as a dominant char-
acter. By mating “flightless” birds
with normal fowls and selecting those
which produce only flightless offspring,
it Is a rather easy matter to transfer
this character to any of the standard
breeds of poultry.
While poultry breeders who intro-
duce this characteristic Into their
flocks will not need high fences, they
may have to rearrange their chickens’
sleeping quarters, for many hen roosts
would be altogether out of range of
penguin poultry,
A few months ago a somewhat sim-
ilar mutation in the guinea fowl was
reported. In this, while the end result
was the same, it was arrived at by
nature in a different way. The flight
feathers do not develop at all in the
“Kiwi” guinea, and the character is
inherited as a recessive character rath-
er than a dominant,
Sanitation Urged for
Checking New Disease
Strict sanitation is the only hope for
checking the new poultry disease,
leucosis or leucemia, which is spread-
ing as a threat to the $37,000,000 worth
of poultry raised on Illinois farms, ac-
cording to the animal pathology and
hygiene division at the college of ag-
riculture, University of Illinois.
No specific treatment for the dis-
ease is known at this time. Control
of it must be attempted through gen-
eral sanitary measures, together with
the disinfection of premises before new
stock Is introduced. It also is advis-
able to avoid breeding from infected
flocks.
Leucemia is a fatal disease mani-
fested by blood changes. Although it
has not been definitely proved that it
is carried through the egg, the evi-
dence indicates that this is the source
of the disease on many farms.
Symptoms may be manifested In
fowls four to six months of age, and
the disease may continue in a chronic
form to cause heavy losses, In mature
fowls the disease is marked by low
egg production, unthriftiness, blind-
ness, large livers and paralysis.
If suspicious symptoms of the dis
ease appear, flock owners are advised
to take typically aifected fowls to the
local veterinarian for autopsy and
diagnosis.
Laying Time for Pullets
It has been found that pullets from
the same hatch, the same breeders
and raised under the same methods
during the growing period will vary
as much as several weeks in the time
they start laying. In any flock, other
things being equal, the early starters
are the hest winter layers, the most
intensive spring producers and the
most persistent layers into the follow-
ing summer-fall period, Most of the
breeding stock of the following year
will be found among the early start
ers. Mark the precocious pullets in
order to identify them from the late
beginners next year when the pullet
laying year draws to a close and the
question of keeping breeding stock
comes up. To do this involves keep-
ing the dates of each hatch. The
simplest means of identification is a
different toe punch for each hatch of
chicks, although many poultrymen
prefer to wing-band all chicks nsed in
their pedigree work.—Los Angeles
Times,
Buying Chicks
The number of chicks one should
buy in the spring should he decided by
the number of pullets he wants to
house next winter. To he reasonably
sure of having any given number of
pullets after discarding the culls, buy
three times that number of chickens.
Cockerels usually outnumber pullets
in a lot as hatched. One should count
on 55 per cent cockerels, The small-
est loss that can be safely figured in
estimates is 10 per cent, according to
an expert.
Feeding Moist Mash
Moist mash can be fed as a supple-
ment to dry mash to aid in increasing
Moist mash is made
by mixing enough water or milk—the
latter preferred—to make it erumbly.
It should not he wet and sloppy. It Is
fed in the mash hoppers on top of the
dry mash. Only as much is fed to the
birds as they will clean up in 20 min-
utes. It is recommended by experts
that it be fed in the middle of the
afternoon. The object in feeding moist
mash is to increase ezg production.
Prune Fruit Trees
Part of the pruning scheduled for
next winter may be done now by re-
moving the suckers which have started
this season. With a heavy pair of
gloves to protect the hands, suckers
may be torn off more easily now than
they can be cut off next winter. Small
bark wounds eaused by the tearing
¥! heal quickly if they are not touch-
. Rubber shoes worn by the oper-
ator will prevent skinning off the bark
on the orotshen ‘
HEALTH TALK
WRITTEN BY DR. THEODORE R.
APPEL, SECRETARY OF
HEALTH
“Tetanus, commonly known as lock
jaw, no longer stages an annual Fourth
of July attack. Thanks to the wisdom
of the majority of City Fathers, or-
dinances forbid the sale of dangerous
explosives within the community's
limits. This protective legislation plus
the more exciting automobile excursion
has undoubtedly saved many children
from accidents it
te
y
explosives along the hig way, ta
justify a warning at this time,” states
Dr. Theodore B. Appel, Secretary of
Health,
“In 1909 nearly two hundred per-
sons, the majority of whom were chil-
dren, were tetanus victims in Pennsyl-
vania. Last year the number reached
but sixty for the twelve month period,
and only ten of these deaths occurred
during the period which possibly could
be connected with the Fourth of July.
However, one death from this dread
disease is even too big a price to pay
for celebrating the country’s Natal
Day. It, therefore, might be well for
mothers and fathers to err on the side
of safety where giant fire crackers, toy
cannons and pistols are concerned.
Even fireworks should be handled
carefully and their use supervised by
the older members of the family.
“However, if in spite of this pre-
caution, an explosive accident occurs,
medical advice should be sought im-
mediately and this, whether the pow~-
der wound appears to be in conse-
quential or otherwise,
“Again, thoughtful persons will re-
spect the ever increasing automobile
hazard, and govern themselves accord-
ingly. Undoubtedly a number of per-
sons will be injured on the highways
on the Fourth because of their regli-
gence or the carelessness of the other
fellow. Indeed, the highway accidents
and fatalities that have occurred on
the last few Fourths make the automo-
bile the real menace today. Careful
driving should consequently be the
rule,
It is, of course, perfectly logical for
everyone to try to extract as much fun
as is possible out of the Fourth of July
celebration. Pleasure and relaxation
are extremely important factors in the
event. But, most assuredly, common
sense and care should not be discard-
ed in the process.”
