YOU'VE COT TO MAKK A NOIKK.
. Pastry cooks tell tin that a duck's
egg la better for many purposes uu
a hen's egg. Furthermore, there are.
nowadays, varieties of ducks which.
with prop.'i care, will luy almost as
many eKKS per feniule In a year as
will a koimJ hen, says the Merchan
dising Service llulletln.
But the hen makes a noise every
lima she luys an egg. while the duck
says nothing and goes away and
leaves her newly-laid egg to the mer
cies of chunce.
Hens are grown on every farm
and In countless ihounandH of village
back lots. The Pacific coast country
Is full of associations devoted to the
handling and marketing of hens'
eggs, bul l lie duck is obscure and
almost unknown.
Here Is one mighly example of I lie
value or making a noise in Hie world.
There are millions of men In the
world who are honest, capable and
Intelligent, but who have a hard
time to make a living. There are
millions of business positions which
these men could fill, perhaps belter
than I hey are being filled by Hie meu
who now hold Ihem, but Ihe fellows
who have Ihe good Jobs have also
had the faculty of pushing them
selves forward and seeing that the
men who had jobs to give out heard
about them. Thcv had the ability lo
make a noise about themselves and
made It tn a good advantage.
Theie are thousands of profession
al men struggling along without re
munerative businesses because they
have been tco modest or oo ethical
or too retiring to put themselves In
the way of business which might be
theirs. They have never learned
how to make a noise.
In Just the same way, there are
thousands of business houses, which
are running along on a small volume
of business, probably struggling tn
make both end.) meet, or if they are
making a profit. It is very much less
than It ought to he, because these
houses have never learned how to
muke a noise about themselves and
Ihe goods they handle.
The most modest form of making
a business noise is aHP-rllsing. Yout
business competitor may carry no
hotter merchandise than you carry-
He may be 'in no better position t o
give service tn his customers than
you are. but If he lets Ihe possible
buyers know through advertising
Hint he hat merchandise which they
want and that he gives service which
liny med while you sit still walilne
for them tn com' to you, he will
premier while you will go backward.
There are many manufacturers
who are making high-class merchan
dise; goods of good iiuallt.ia with
good materials and good workman
ship, bul if thesw manufacturers are
not advertising their merchandise
nnd nobody knows about It, it's the
wrong kind of merchandise for you
lo have on your shelves.
II Is your business to advertise
your store und your service and it is
to your Interest to let your ciisloni-
...... u,l,, II...... v.... !..., nu l.i.t
you cannot afford to give thorough
and" complete advertising to every
product In your store that Is the J
manufacturer's business and unless
he dots this you ought to change to
some other lines which are adequate
ly advertised.
You don't want duck eggs to sell
In v,. Eli.ni V.kll waul h.n:i ,'ffra.
I They are the kind which are adver
! Used.
.MAKK THK 1IOHO WOIIK.
The hobo pest was about eradi
cated during the war period, says the
C! runts Pass Courier. There was no
place for the Idle man, and much as
II must have gone against Ihe grain
with the easy-living fraternity, they
had to get lnlo harness and make at
least a bluff at becoming producers.
The younger of the breed were forced
into the army, or sought cover in the
ship-building plants while the fellows
with red blond in their veins fought
the battles for their country, Hut
now the hobo Is with us again. He
stakes the "touch" at the street cor
ner for the price of breakfast, and
ludges for the night in the barn or
warehouse. He is a menace to life
jnd property, and is a demoralizing
influence upon the community. What
lo do with him is a problem. He
ught not to be permitted to draw
bis sustenance from his fellow man
like the parasite he is. and the rock
pile has its disadvantages for it is
often only an excuse through which
meulB are given for work I hat does
not .count. These men ought lo he
made lo work or allowed to. starve.
There Is development work now
needing men. There are roads to
construct, canals to exeuvute, mills to
operate and lauds to clear. The gov
ernment should establish camps to
which the more incorrigible of these
hoboes could be sent. Then, if they
have heallh and sliength in t heir
bodies, li t them work if they would
eat. Pay Iheni by the yard for dig
ging ditches or for grading roads, If
they will not deliver a day's work
otherwise. But And a way to make
jthem stop wearing out railroad ties
and cluttering up trarilc on me ciiy
streets. One of the good feaiuri-a of
Ihe war was that it put the hobo off
the Job for a time. II was almost
worth the price.
It Is quite a conilorl occasionally
to get Into a company that does not
discuss tire and engine trouble and
noihlng worse than sickness or bad
busineas to worry nbout.
Every once in a while you hear of
a school boys' strike, but Its never
a hunger strike.
If youTiadlhem mi, you'd think
"the good old days" were bad old
days.
It Isn't so "much what you do as
whom you "do" that gets you In bad.
The pooFesi loin is borrowed trou
bles. Pet prejudices pay poor Interest.

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE
AX OI'EX l.KTTEIt TO THK Tl'K-
KEV tiltoWEHS OK lMJltills
tOl.XTV.
On Tuesday, November 16th, I was
Informed that turkey buyers nau
agreed among (heinselvea that (hey
would only pay forty cents per pound
for turkevs. As llils was not thought
a satisfactory price when Ihe cost of
growing and wholesale prices in ine
clly were considered. Ihe formation
of a pool was undertaken. This pool
was formed not to put (he price dc
yond reason, but for the purpose of
Hying lo get a just pfice for the
producer. lis success is snown uv
(he fact that the buyers advanced
Ihe price lo forty-five cents. 4hen lo
forty-six and then lo for(y-six and a
half cenls per pound. Finally the
price advancinl to forly-eigh( and
(hen (o fifty cents, without a uoutit
had not (he farmers been advised and
(his pool formed they would have re
ceived much less for (heir turkeys.
According lo a very conservntlve
estimate there were at least six or
more outside buyers In the county
In some cases these men had their
wives along whh (hem. Each of
these men employed from two to
Ihree helpers in each locality (o as
sist In handling the birds he bought.
You may usk. what has this (o do
with Ihe price they paid for turkeys
The answer Is, you paid the expenses
of all these people by 'aking less for
your turkeys. Do you want to con
tintie In do so? Nn( only do you pay
(ho expense.! of Iheso foreign buyers,
but In most cases you indirectly pay
the local man who buys turkeys for
outside parties either two or two nnd
a half cents n pound, depending on
whether he or his buyer furnishes
Ihe shipping crates. Why sliould you
be nt the mercy of either of these
sets of buyers? You purchase goods
from any slore-koeper in Hie counly
and pay him the price he asks. Why
should he not be equally reasonnbl
and pay you a price that you ask. If
that price Is a fair and Just one?
Then, why should not turkey grow
ers orgnnize for the marketing of
their birds? In this way they would
do away with needless nnd wasteful
duplication in the handling of tur
keys, obtain much more money for
(heir birds nnd get the benefit of the
strength (hat comes from united ef
fort.
At two points In Ihe county there
were eleven buyers employing seven
li-en men. mnklng a total of twenty-
eight people doing the work that a
farmer organization could do with
ten men. The expenses of these
other eighteen men naturally come
out of (he price the producer should
have received.
Think these things over and then
if you consider It wnrlh while com
municate with me nnd we will help
you plan for the Christinas market
season. The lime Is short. W can
and will help you help yourselves. If
this work Is wanted, we will plan to
hold six evening meetings to organ
ize and get to work. Remember this
Is up lo you, nnd If you want to or
ganize phone 323 and do It now.
The prices received for turkeys
shipped on consignment from our re
cent pool nelted as follows: The
whole pool consignment netted an
average of fifty-four cents, old loms
nnd crooked hreasls Included. Those
sold locally brought fifty cents per
pound. Itospectfully yours,
H. E. HASLETT,
Counly Agent.
