Every man, woman and child is a daily wanter of many things, most of which have to be bought from some retailer. But to sell, the seller must go to the market. It is sadly wrong if and when the seller waits for buyers to go to him. This means that the retailer who wants to supply many buyers must take his merchandise, in a figurative sence, to where buyers are assembled. And the assembly place of buyers--men, women and children--is their newspaper. In the form of advertisements retailers display their wares. Every advertisement can be likened to a stall. These retailers' stalls get a close inspection of buyers. They are scanned to see if they show things of necessity or desire, and when the offerings of these stalls are in accord with buyer's wants and needs, then sales are made. The retailer who loses out is he who has no stall--no advertisement at this place of assembly. His absence from the market-place represented by the newspaper and its advertisements is advantageous to those who have advrtisements in the newspaper. The buying public wants its buying transactions made as easy as possible. It wants its time and its steps saved. It likes to find, in the comfort and peace of the home, what sellers have to offer. In the home decisions are arrived at. Women and others plan their shopping and their purchases in advance. Their newspaper^ is their informer. Retailers who neglect to provide buyers with information in the form of advertisements in our newspaper miss many sales. It is never economy to be silent about what one has to sell.

The application of manure returns to the soil a large proportion of the plant food removed by crops, particularly nitrogen, phosphoric acid and potash. Since more than one-half the nitrogen and at least three-fourths of the potash of manure is contained in the liquid portion, the importance of saving the urine of stoek is evident. The employment of. sufficient litter to absorb all the liquid, tight floors and gutters, an impervious bottom to the storage area and in districts of high, rainfall, protecting the manure heap with some sort of cover are means by which excestsive leaching and loss may be prevented.
