That it pays to advertise was again demonstrated when we an nounced the fact thut a quantity of seeds had been sent to this office for free distribution. In three days after the paper was published we had over 100 calls for seed. Several of the callers were not subscribers, but read the item in their neighbor's paper. The seeds are supposed to be the best obtainable. However, if they fail to "come up" in six weeks, bring them back and get another package, lie sure and wait for yonr cou pons at the Bungalow. They are valuable. Mrs. lfrank Rice entertained the the Ii. T. O. club at her home on Charleston street on lfriday last. A pleasant time was hod by all pres ent.
