generally would go to the trouble that
many other producers do they would
receive better remuneration for what
they market. For instance, a dairyman,
if be knows his business and manufac
tures good butter, will put his sump
.on bis article; cheese makers will do
likewise. In fact, if you've got a good
thing to market, it is a wise thing to
take pains and have everything done
that will help to advertise the article
And the producer.
A local paper is just as much a loca)
business enterprise as any store in town,
yet many people seem to think that it is
a benevolent institution and it is run
for the fun of it, says the Amesburg
News. Now a local paper is the direct
communication between storekeepers,
business men and the people. When a
Jive man has anything to say to the
DOODle he usee the AriTufnnn nf a Iiva
paper. All business men realize this, !
and those who patronize the columns of
their local paper reap sure and quick
e turns.
By
the death of ex-President Harri- i
son the country has lost one of its great
est statesmen and scholars. Mr. Har
rison wss a man of magnificent intel
lectuality and rugged character. His
plficial record is clean, forceful and
patriotic and his private life has been
marked by the same devotion to the
country's interests that characterized
his work as president. He wss one of
the strong men of his time snd it is a
instterof sincere regret that his voice
has beep stilled in the councils of the
nation. '
4ll over the state there appears to
lie great activity regarding the question
of inducing Easterners to locate at a

The present active demand for agri
culture and timber lands in this and
b'iier neighboring countiea has had the
eijtect of developing a certain class of
middlemen or agents, whose methods of
doing business are, in too many cases,
not at all satisfactory to legitimate set
tlers or purchase, either, of these
landa, and their manipulations too often
result in the failure of large and im
portant sales. Their favorite system of
.working is to approach a prospective
seller, and by plausible argument, con
vince him tliitt they represent a syndi
cate of capitalists who are ready to take
tne land and pay lor it. men Dy tne
use of more suave and persuasive lan
guage the agent secures an option or
bond for a deed, without paying any
thing down . on tne stipulated price.
Having by this means tied up the land
for a period of from one to six months.
the sgent is at liberty to rustle for some
body to sell the land to. for in eleven
cases out of a dozen he represents no
body but bimeelf, and to the seller that
ia simply equal to nobody stall. If be
should hsppen to secure a purchaser for
be land he usually adds on from fifty to
one hundred per cent, to the price of
the bond, and then by charging the
seller five per cent, he gets a commis
sion both ways and makes nearly or
quite aa much out of the deal as the
sWIer. This phase of the operation
would not be seriously objected to if
the agents would confine their ener
gies to making deals and stop "knock
ing," but it too often transpires that if
aa agent ia unt able to sell a piece of
land himself he will prevent anyone
elee from doing so by simply going to
tne purchaser and representing that ns
has an option on the land in question
and that if he is not given a slice of the
commission the deal cannot go. Natur
ally it does not require much ot this
kind of jockeying to "Queer" a sale and
cause an intending purchaser to leave
the country in disgust, some of these
middle men are a good kind of people
to religiously avoid and have nothing to
do with whatever. In most cases they
represent notiody but themselves, have
no money and an always looking for
tne oest ol anv deal thev may make. It
will be found much more satisfactory to
deal direct with legitimate purchasers
snd to eigu no bonds or options unless
the seller receives five or ten per cent,
of the purchase price at the time such
instruments are signed.
