WHY RBTAIL ' ' MERCHANTS SHOULD ADTERTISE IN THE LOCAL PAPERS About the most necessary element connected with advertising is courage on the part of the man who spends the money, or rather invests it, for that is what all suitable advertising is says the Boston Grocer's Magazine. There are any number of retail merchants who have been influenced to advertise in their local paper, once, twice or a few times, but who soon came to the conclusion that it didn't pay because few, If any, persons came into the store, as far as they knew, is direct response to the advertising. Every advertising solicitor for a local paper has heard merchants say something like this: "We liked your tea ad very well, hut it has been in the paper two or three times and yet we cannot trace the sale of a single pound of tea to it." This is generally accompanied bjw the broad statement that "advertising doesn't pay us. The fact is that scarcely any cus tomers will come into a store and say, "I want a pound of that tea you are advertising in The Courier." If the advertisement impresses the people they are much more apt to ask for "a pound of tea" when they want it The great thing, however, is to con vince the possible customers that that is the best store to go to for tea when it is needed. Advertisers who are not really ad vertisers take a very narrow view of advertising and measure it by what are called direct results, that is, direct answers. For instance, an advertiser who spends $10 wants to be able to -directly trace sales amounting to $50 or $100 to that particular advertis ing. There are even some advertisers, so-called, who, if they spend $50 think they should sell enough goods direct ly from that advertising to increase their profits more than $50. Large advertisers, almost without exception, say it is impossible to trace direct results. They simply know that advertising stimulates their sales, keeps the salesmen enthusiastic and keeps the goods before the trade or public. They also feel that if they stopped advertising that their sales would fall off materially, as has repeatedly been the case with parties who have quit, thinking they could save money by so -doing. As a rule, such results are abso- lutely impossible. They might be if there were no other man advertising, but that is not the case. Verv little advertising is to be measured by the direct results from it. The purpose of advertising, in large part, is to create prestige or reputation, or get the store or busi ness known and keep it known. If parties who exiect extraordina ry direct results from advertising would make a serious study of the matter, they would feel very differ ently, and it is claimed that any bust ness can be successfully advertised in .some way. If the retailers and others who measure their advertising results purely from the matter of direct res ponses would stop and think, they would see how foolish a conclusion is. Great as is the power of advertis ing, if the publisher of a local paper, or any paper, could produce, through his advertising columns, such amaz ingly profitable returns as some ef these beginners ia advertising desire, or expect, the newspaper or periodical publishing business weald be far the , finest business in the world. It would have banking and manu : f acfcuring beaten many a mile. If for every dollar expended for ad vertising the advertiser could be guaranteed a direct retort ef $1.25 or even $1.10, there would be ne need ef advertising solicitor or space eel- -era of any sort. Every business man in the comma nity would be lined up in front of the newspaper offices waiting for an op portunity to hand the paper copy for his advertisement. In the large cities such lines of people would contain hundreds of persons and remind one of recruiting -stations in war-times. The publishers would simply have to take in the '- money. Plenty of courage is necessary in advertising. The biggest advertisers tnere are most all had a larger stock of nerve than money when they began advertising. They have kept plugging away, and using their business judg ment, but never letting up. That is the retailer's position to- oay Just as much as that of any oth er advertiser. He should advertise and continuously, and give the sub ject lus closest attention. It is worthy of it, and the time is coming when the man who does not advertise at all will scarcely be able to carry on even a small business. Advertising has become a necessity for almost everybody. Ine retail merchant who does not - advertise or who only carries a for mal card in his local paper, will do well to devote a certain sunk to suita ble advertising each year. It needn't he a large sum. The announcement, if in the local paper, should be changed each time. It should consist of brief talks on the gooda advertised and not merely con sist of names of roods and prices. People want to know about the goodB as much as they do the price. THE REPUBLICAN CAMPAIGN Fayetteville Observer. The Republicans of North Carolina are casting about for a candidate te carry the banner in the campaign of 1916. "To carry the banner" ought to be his sole duty, for under ordinary cir cumstances there would be no dan ger of the Republicans capturing the stronghold of Democracy. But the Democrats had best not feel too se cure, as there is some danger of one or two Republican Congressman being elected through Sheer lukewarmness or carelessness on the part of their opponents. The battle is "not to the strong alone, but to the vigilant and active." There is some dissatisfac tion in the Democratic ranks, always was and always will be, and the only way to get rid of that dissatisfac tion is to find where it lies and get to work on the dissatisfied element. In all conscience, there should be no dissatisfaction, as the Democrats have given the people good govern ment, both State and National, during the past four years, and to look for any improvement by electing Republi cans to fill the offices is the height of folly. We have tried them in North Carolina, and the experience should be sufficient to satisfy as that we had best stick to the Democrats front governor to township constable, and to be sure that a Democratic Con gressman is elected in every district There is little doubt that Woodrow Wilson will be renominated and re elected President for another term, and his followers will fall short of their duty if they do not use every effort to elect a strong Democratic Congress4 to help him complete the great but difficult work of reform which he has so successfully wrought thus far despite tremendous obstacles and much adverse criticism on the part of the Republicans. As we said above,however,the Dem ocrats should be just as earnest and determined in their efforts to win suc cess in 1916 as they were in any past campaign, and if such is the case, sub stantial and sweeping victory will be theirs. The Republicans know this full well, and will endeavor to get in an entering wedgo here and there by the election of a State Legislator or a Congressman. It ia said by those who claim to be posted that the Republi cans will throw most of their strength into the fight for Governor and Con gressmen, and that would very likely be good generalship. They will have a hard road to travel, however, B3 the unusual condition of affairs brought on by the European war has thrown politics badly out of joint, leaving a dearth of issues on which an outside party could conduct a campaign. Hence their strong ca:d will be to profit by Democratic over-confidence and any dissatisfaction that might be found in different sections. That dis satisfaction may be slight and with- oat just cause, but still it cuitl be distorted and magnified and votes mad thereby.

TO PREVENT SMUT IN SEED OATS A formula to prevent smut in seed oats is as follows: To each three gal lons of water add one ounce (about 2 tablespoons) of formalin. Soak the seed 10 to 15 minutes, then drain off the surplus water, cover the pile of oats with a cloth that has been dipp ed in a stronger solution of formalin and leave covered from 8 to 10 hours. Next spread the grain on a clean floor (cleaned with formalin) and dry them rapidly, stirring with clean imple menta. The seed should be sown soon after they become dry but in sowing damp seed a larger amount must be sown to allow for the swollen condi tion of the grain.
