FOR
YOUR INSPECTION
The merchant and nianufacturer 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.”
G)
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-

are seeking for the best and most economical way to
spend their money.

ROADSIDE
MARKETING
By T J. Delohery
LOCATING THE ROADSIDE
MARKET
the first thing 2 food re
tailer does betore leasing a shop
or store is to “count noses’; that is,
he finds out how many people pass the
place daily, and thus decides the pos-
sibilities of his attracting customers.
Farmers are now doing practically
the same thing before building road-
side markets, making allowances for
new customers that will come through
advertising and satisfied customers
telling others about their source of
fresh, quality fruits, vegetables and
other foods.
In determining the number of cars
which pass the proposed roadside mar-
ket site, the number traveling on the
side on which the stand is to be built
is Important, more especlally on main
highways. On the secondary roads It
is not so Important, according to sur-
veys. The position of the market and
the parking space are two other de
ciding factors.
Studies indicate the right-hand side
of the road, homeward bound or lead-
ing into town, is to be preferred. In
Michigan, for instance, It was found
that for every hundred dollars’ worth
of farm products sold to consumers by
markets on the right-hand side of the
highway, only $47 was sold from stands
on the opposite side. Ohio experts
torists will brave the hazards and in-
foot to do their shopping.
On the secondary roads, however,
fully half the people will cross over,
the dangers of threading through the
traffic being decidedly smaller. The
counts, as six of the most successful
roadside markets around Chicago are |
located on what is supposed to be the
wrong side of the highway. As a gen-
eral thing people won't stop, knowing
they will come upon other stands with-
out traveling far.
The outward bend of a gentle curve
in the highway is a prominent loca-
tion for a roadside market. It can be
Seen from a distance, and motorists
A Roadside Market.
usually slow down on curves, The
crest of a hill is also a good spot, as
is the side of a straight stretch, espe-
cially if there is nothing to obstruct
the view,
Hill tops have an advantage of offer-
ing a view of the surrounding country,
making it easy to wait if service Is
not possible right away. And people
will often linger where they get a
view of the vicinity. In all cases, the
color scheme and decorations of the
market and surrounding buildings |
help stop customers and make sales. |
For the same reason people will not !
cross the highway; parking space is!
essential. In some states it is a law. |
The easier it is for people to trade, the |
better they like it. Also, they like to
look over the display of products with-
out too much trouble.
_ “Since most of the buying at road
side markets is done as sort of a side-
line fo pleasure drives,” said the own-
er of a roadside market in Massachu-
setts, “room enough to get away from
the place as soon as they have finished
buying gives them more time for rid-
ing, and they don’t have to park any
distance from the market. On the oth-
er hand, If you have something of in-
terest around the place, even if it is
only a good view, keeping customers
satisfied while you are servicing oth-
ers, helps a whole lot. Pastoral beau-
ty is one thing that interests city
consumers. Flowers, shrubs and even
growing vegetables will make them |
forget waiting or even make them for-
get what they stopped. for. |
“Speaking of flowers and shrubs, I |
find they are both very profitable in |
a cash way, too. This whole patch by |
the market is the result of our just i
setting out a few things to make the |
place attractive. Now we sell $150 |
to $200 worth of flowers during the |
season, and people who are attracted |
by the flowers also buy vegetables and |
other things.”
Related to the position of the road-
side market are signs. If possible, the
first sign should be 300 to 500 feet |
from the market. It should be large |
enough and attractively painted to
catch the eye. Give the motorist every
chance to catch the message and time
to slow down.
One of the don’ts about signs is never
to start off with STOP, especially if
red color is used. Red and STOP are
danger signals on roadways, and the
motorists who find it is only your road-
side market sign are more apt to pass
up your market, even though in need
of things you have to sell.
Some farmers prefer one large sign;
others several small ones at intervals
of 100 to 200 feet. Both may be used
to good advantage.

POULTRY
BACK-YARD FLOCKS
REDUCE FOOD COST
Table Scraps May Be Used
to Feed Poultry.
By C. F. Parrish, Poultry Extension Spe-
clalist, North Carolina State College.
WNU Service.
The back-yard poultry growing in-
dustry has always been an important
factor in poultry growing, and should
be expanded during the present pe-
riod.
As a reason for this suggestion,
back-yard poultry keeping is affected
less by changing economic conditions
than any other productive enterprise.
In times of high prices, great numbers
of persons keep fowls as a means of
reducing the cost of living. In times
of depression, the back-yard flock may
play an important part in the struggle
to keep going on a reduced income.
Then, too, fowls are most adaptable
and may be kept successfully under a
wide range of conditions.
It is true, when the range is re-
stricted and methods are intensified,
the feed and labor cost for each bird
Is increased. This may not be a
handicap since our experience has
shown us that when farmers produce
eggs and poultry at lowest cost, they
do not necessarily make the largest
net profit either on the birds or the
labor used. It is cheaper possibly to
buy feed than to buy eggs and chick-
ens, and much of the table scraps or
surplus green vegetables may be used
to advantage with the back-yard flock.
In keeping poultry in the backyard,
however, houses should be well ven-
tilated, but not open to winds and rain.
Good dropping boards, clean nests,
plenty of fresh water In clean con-
tainers, and curtains for protecting the
birds during bad weather are neces-
sary. While the houses should have
open fronts, the birds must have ade-
quate protection during cold, rainy
weather.
Use Sanitary Practice
to Reduce Chick Loss
Poultrymen who put health first last
year in the growing of their pullets
suffered less than 7 per cent loss of

lege, says that 707 co-operators with
the agricultural extension service in
the state last year reported the grow-
ing of 426542 chicks. The average
loss of chicks reported was 10.4 per
cent, but poultrymen who used all the
sanitary practices recommended by the
extension poultry specialists had a loss
of only 6.94 per cent.
The five recommended practices in-
cluded quality chicks from vigorous
early hatching, clean brooder
clean feeders and clean
stock,
houses,
grounds,
Since this plan of growing chicks
was started in the state there has been
a consistent decrease in chick losses.
In 1929 the average loss among Cc0-0p-
erators was 135 per cent, but those who
used all the clean practices lost only
10 per cent. In 19350 the average loss
was 13.2 per cent, and those who used
all the sanitary practices lost only 814
per cent. In 1031 the average was
slightly over 10 per cent, and the loss
for those using all the clean practices
was less than 7 per cent.
A Productive Hen
A single comb Rhode Island Red hen,
owned by the North Dakota agricultur
al college, laid 542 eggs in two years.
according to O. A. Barton, head of the
poultry department. The eggs from
this hen sold for a total of $9.74.
In the records kept, it was found
that this hen consumed 200 pounds
of feed at a cost of $2.40, leaving a
balance of $7.34 in two years. The
$7.34 is the amount which was re-
ceived for overhead cost and labor In-
come,
Eggs produced by this ben had a
total weight of about 65 pounds, or
more than ten times her body weight.
She produced her eggs on an average
of slightly over four pounds of feed
per dozen, and at a feed cost of ap
proximately 5 cents per dozen.—Wal
