COSTLY LESSONS IN ECONOMY.
It Is Not Always a Matter of Saving to
Buy Cheap Goods.
Almost every rural community has
within its confines people who have
paid well for experience and have
learned costly lessons as to buying
of goods.
Not long ago in a western town a
citizen desired to buy a kitchen range.
A visit to tile local hardware store
was made and the prices asked by
the dealer were not satisfactory to
the prospective purchaser, who by
the way had his attention attracted
by the advertising in his farm paper
of "a bargain" in a kitchen range.
The range was advertised as equal to
those costing "twice the money at the
local store.” The citizen sent a
money order to the concern advertis
ing the range, and in the course of a
few weeks he was notified by the rail-*
.road agent that the range had ar
rived. In removing it from the sta
tion to the farm house, in some inex
plainable way part of it was broken.
The broken pieces were taken to the
local hardware store but could not be
duplicated. A letter was written to
the range company and in the course
of a few weeks a duplicate of the
broken part was received, but it was
discovered that it would not fit the j
stove, it had to be returned and a |
few weeks later another piece was :
sent; then the stove was placed in !
use. Within six months the top had
become so warped that it interfered
seriously with the drafts. At the end
of the year the stove was burned out j
and ready for the junk heap. The
purchaser of the stove then deter
mined that he would secure another
range from the home dealer. He paid
the home dealer the price he was
asked which was about one-third more
than the poor range cost, and after a
few years the range was found to be
as good almost as when first bought.
This is one illustration of how econ
omy wrongfully practiced is ex
pensive. It is not always wise to
seek the bargain counters when good
articles are wanted. Neither is it a
wise idea to buy goods before you
have an opportunity to carefully ex
amine them and determine their
value.

SCHEMES TO DEFRAUD.
Some of the Plans to Secure Money
Without Adequate Compensation.
Plans to secure money from the
people without giving adequate re
turns are numerous. Not alone are
the residents of country districts
made the victims of schemers, but
city people as well are now and then
humbugged by shrewd fakirs. Within
the past year or two it was announced
in the columns of magazines and the
farm papers or a seedless apple being
evolved. A few months later seedless
apple trees were wiaoiv advertised
from different parts of the country.
One concern which started in to op
erate on an extensive plan organized
seedless apple companies in different
states of the western country. Within
a few months hundreds of thousands
of dollars were taken from the pock
ets of the people for seedless apple
trees. These trees were just the
ordinary kind, and poor stock at that.
So bold were the operations of the
seedless apple tree schemers that the
secretary of agriculture found it nec
essary to issue a bulletin warning the
people of the fraud, and later the post
office department issued fraud orders
against those engaged in the nefarious
business. There are nurseries located
in nearly every state, it is a good
plan for the residents of farming and
fruit growing districts to carefully in
vestigate concerns selling fruit trees
and similar lines before they are
given patronage.
* * »
A number of petty grafts have late
ly been worked throughout the coun
try. One of the common ones is the
hiring of agents to sell soaps, per
fumes and other commodities on the
premium plan. The concerns which
operate games of this class generally
have their headquarters in some large
city and through advertising secure
the names of people desiring employ
ment as canvassers and agents. To
such they send letters holding out ex
traordinary inducements. Those who
agree to act as agents sign a contract
which is an agreement to pay for such
goods as may be sent to them on con
signment. The sample outfits which
are forwarded, or the small stock of
goods, are billed in such a way as to
allow the concern an exorbitant profit.
If the agent succeeds in selling the
goods and remits promptly there is
not likelihood of being any trouble,
but generally the goods are so poor in
quality that they remain dead stock
in the hands of the canvasser* and
he will find that the agreement he has
signed will hold him to pay for the
goods.
* * *
One of the humbugs that is perpe
trated upon the people of many com
munities is the selling of stock in co
operative mercantile companies. Dur
ing the past three or four years the
residents of many small towns and ag
ricultural districts have lost hundreds
of thousands of dollars, if not mil
lions, through tlie buying of stock in
alleged cooperative establishments in
large cities. One company with head
quarters in Chicago, doing a mail
order business, sold stock in excess of
$1,000,000, and when the concern went
into the hands of a receiver about a
yeqr ago there was not ten per cent,
of assets to return to stockholders.
Other alleged cooperative deals in
volve what is termed a profit sharing
plan. This plan does nof require the
purchase of stock, but the cooperative
part is purely a scheme devised for
the securing of trade.

Did you ever stop to think
how your advertising can be
made a source of profit to
you, and how its value can be
measured in dollars and
cents. If you have not, you
are throwing money away.
Advertising is a modern
business necessity, but must
be conducted on business
principles. If you are not
satisfied with your advertising
you shbuld set aside a certain
amount of money to be spent
t
annually, and then carefully
note the effect it has in in
creasing your volume of busi
ness; whether a io, 20 or 30
per cent increase. If you
watch this gain from year to j
you will become intensely in- j
terested in your advertising,
and how you can make it en
large your business.
If you try this method we
believe you will not want to
let a single issue of this paper
go to press w ithout something
from your store.
We will be pleased to have
you call on us, and we will
take pleasure in explaining
our annual contract for so
many inches, and how it can be
