Tests on advertising were made some time ago by the Chicago Tribune. Advertisements in which the descriptions of various articles were limited to one or two lines were run along with others carrying five lines of descriptive matter. The latter proved to have double the response. Last Spring an Eastern concern made a complete canvass of its trade territory to ascertain the type of ad vertising with most appeal. Ninety per cent of those questioned were found to favor full description of mer chandise together with prices. A few favored price alone and a smaller number favored the general pres tige-building type. A merchant who is familiar with his own merchandise is apt to think because he knows every detail of the merchandise that every one else - does. That is not true. People like to know just what they are going to buy; they like to have it described in detail, even to size and dimensions. Mail order houses discovered this early in the game, and they have gone so far as to illustrate practi cally every item of merchandise, some in colors, and described to the smallest detail. They sell entirely through the printed word. What an advantage the lo cal merchant has over the mail order catalog, if he would advertise along similar lines. Catalogs are printed twice a year, while your county newspaper is printed twice a week. The mer chant has the advantage of presenting seasonable ad vertising—he has the advantage of personal contact The story of his goods is fresh each issue and the story is news. He has the advantage of the newcomers in the trade 1 territory and the younger people who marry, who, before, had no thought of where to buy. The field is always widening for the local merchant if he has the vision to go out and fight for the business. -To fight for business, all that is necessary is proper advertising, which will sell the people on his store. The merchant who advertises for business with regularity, rain or shine, good roads or bad. is the merchant who is making advertising successful for him. The fact that people know where his store is means little. People like to know just what this merchant is doing, what new merchandise he has and why they should buy it This is a day of competition and advertising leads the way.
