' HOW HOI TO ADVERTISE 10 GET BEST THE RESULTS Suggestions. From -an Expert as to a Publicity Campaign. BUSINESS MEN IN CHARGE. First Important Duty Is to Lay Plans For Securing a Larger Rural Popu lation From Which to Draw Local Trade Present Facts That Appeal. More than a hundred cities and towns in the United States are now conducting successful advertising cam paigns In their own behalf. Some Canadian cities also boom themselves by this direct method of publicity. In a recent puper read at a meeting of commercial clubs by Curtis L. Mosuer, manager of the publicity bureau of St. Paul, some valuable suggestions were given. Mr. Moshor's remarks on mu nicipal advertising are applicable to any town which desires to present Its attractions to the outsldo public. Among other things he says: "No municipal advertising campaign can succeed until Jt has the united sup port of practical business men. Some body must be responsible for the collec tion of necessary funds, even though only a moderate and economical cam paign Is decided upon. Some one must be responsible for the results. Other wise the campaign will be only desul tory and unsatisfactory. The best and may perhaps wish to utilize.' Make the letter strong and to the point. Set forth the kinds of soil and crops, the values of land, etc., so that the man who gets It will have a clear Idea of the situation. "Inclose with the letters lists of farms for sale within easy reach of the city; also tracts of unimproved lands. "If the business men of tho town can secure from a hundred farmer custom ers tho names of only five farmer friends or relatives In 'the old home districts,' It means 500 agriculturists upon whom direct advertising work may bo started. Each hundred farm ers added to the tributary rural popu lation means $100,000 a year added to tho trade of tho city or town. Such work can be done at the cost of a few postage stamps and a little effort." Mr. Mosuer dwells at considerable length upon tho desirability of keeping commercial clubs supplied with local data and information; of having coun ty exhibits at the state fair; of secur ing stnte and district conventions; of having products marked "Made in ." "The most dangerous error common ly made In direct advertising for tho city or town Is to yield too far to the natural feeling of local pride and con struct the advertisement or printed motter in such n way that ns a matter of fact It Is more energetic in pralslug and placing the city In an agreeable light than It is In presenting purely business facts and arguments that will appeal to a business man. "Give all your forms of direct adver tising a neat nnd substantial appear ance. Decorative effects do not appeal to business men. By all means publish a booklet oven though It cannot be most practical man the municipality tni?an bring forward should bo mado Repairman of tho general committee in 'hanrc of the "work or bo ofllclallv des ignated by some similar arrangement ' pretentious. Fill It with facts and torso " as the manager and director in charge i Business arguments and use all tho II mi of tho work-. gr "The best beginning that n munici pality can make In considering an ad vertising campaign Is to look well to Its appearance, attractiveness and local Improvements." Mr. Mosher dwells upon tho Impor tance of clean and well lighted streets, good sidewalks, the removal of dilapi dated buildings along business streets, a first class hotel, a public library, at tractive approaches to the railway sta tlou, rest rooms for women and public drinking fountains. "As no town or city." continues Mr Mosher, "can grow faster than the business from Its local nnd tributary lustrations you can. Edit it carefully to see that all Its statements cau bo proved and that there is no waste of words. It should answer the question, 'Why, ns n business man. Investor. farmer or citizen In search of summer outing attractions or n suitable resi dence or city, should I be Interested In ?' This is tho best guido to tho proper construction of u booklet that con bo given without extended com-ment." The Scrap Book Attractions of a Pastoral Life. A philanthropist sent a child from tho New York slums to tho country. To this child, raised among slum horrors, all the beauty and poetry of n pastoral life was offered. One dnv the mau went to see the little girl, lie took her on his knee, glanced with approbation about the quaint old farm kitchen and said: "And do you find the couutry very beautiful, my dear?" "Oh, beautiful," tho youster an iwered. ."And what havo you seen during the week's sojourn here?" "I've seen eighty-seven turkeys killed and a man's nose broken In a pumpkin ratlle."

During civil war times GUman Fay, a local character knowu by all as Gil, went to the general store In Fayvllle, Mass., kept ut that time by Colonel Dexter Fay, to make his purchases. Tho amount was OS cents, and Fay ten dered the clerk a dollar bill. Change being scarce In tho store, as was often the case during those strenuous times, tho clerk passed him some slips of pa per with llgures on them to equal tho amount of change due. Gil looked at the change and then at the clerk and slowly said. "What's all this?" "Why, that is what we are giving for change now. When you get a dol lar's worth wo will redeem them," re plied the clerk, und Gil went out A day or two later (311 went to the store again for some tobacco. The clerk passed out the plug, and Gil put his hand In his pocket and pulled out a handful of pumpkin seeds and hand ed them to the clerk, saying: "These are what I am using for change now. When you get a dollar's worth I will redeem them."
