The election campaign is going on quietly. The number of pubfic meet- ings is less than usual, the voters de- pending more on the printed page than om speeches at heated politieal gather- ings.

Often farmers buy goods from strang "rs on the spur of the moment and investigation into prices charged for 'he same goods by local dealers, Of- ten' a slick bunch of salesmen arcive in town with a carload of stoves they divide up into parties to work m different directions, a wagon drives into a farmyard and while one salesman is engaging the attention of the farmer by throwing @ range off the wagon in such @ way as to show its unbreakable qualities, an other is finterviewing the girls in the kitchen, hunting arguments to use on the farmer and also picking out some extra nice wood for a demon stration. The farmer says he don' want a rew stove but the slick Yan- kee say they will give a demonstra the old stove and erecting the new steel range.
