Lighty writes : The farmer is too modest in setting forth the merits of the waves he has for sale. I know a farmer who is very particular to have the cleanest and finest seed wheat, and a little local advertising took "all his wheat at nearly double market prices. [ know others who have just as fine wheat but they hide their light under a bushel and sell their wheat at the warchouse. First- class products command a premium at all times, and it pays to find the peo- ple who appreciate the best and. ave willing to pay 'the premium. Brought Home For Burial.
