PROOF OF TRUE FRIENDSHIP
What More Could Be Asked of Any
Man Than the Sacrifice That
li Here Recorded?
There are various ways of evidenc
ing true friendship. Sorrow and suf
fering bring out the best in others, but
It Is our habit to be sympathetic and
not always does it prove that sympa
thy and friendship are akin. When a
man will lend you money without col
lateral he is Indeed a friend.
But we find our true friends in oth
er ways. The other day we w ere in a
hurry and we needed a hair cut. So
we boat It into our favorite barber
shop to find our favorite barber busy,
and a man ahead of us.
We were about to depart without the
trim we sorely needed, when the man
ahead of us spoke up:
"Ton always have the same barber,
don't you'"
"Yep." we replied.
"Well, I'm next for his chair, but
I'm in no hurry. You just go ahead
and take my turn. I'll wait."
There was friendship for you, and as
we thanked him for his kindness we
couldn't help remarking:
"Greater love hath no man than
this, that he will give up his place in a
barber shop for another." Exchange.

Here's your honest man '.
Kight lre in, Houston, recently, a
man entered the consolidated railway
ticket office and purchased a ticket for
a child more than five years old. Then
he promptly tore the ticket up.
It develoid that a woman, accom
panied by a child, departed from Hous
ton within the last rew days for a city
more than 1.000 miles away, but did
nut obtain transportation for the child.
When the ticket was bought the pur
chaser was asked when the party was
going. He replied, "They have already
gone."
Then It developed that the man. conscience-stricken
at the thought of
eheatins the railroads out of the cost
of a child's ticket, decided to follow the
old adaee. "Better late than never."

The home gardener, who still
clings to the idea that "peas is
peas" and that one variety is
pretty much the same as another,
certainly ought to secure a copy of
a book just off the press, which
deals with peas and other desir
able vegetables.
The book referred to is the 1922
issue of Lilly's Seed Annual. This
guide from Western America's
greatest seed house gives a wealth
of information about a wide va
riety of peas that have been accli
mated here. These varieties have
been thoroughly tested and each
has proved its superiority for cer
tain requirements. With Lilly's
Seed Annual in hand, the gardener
can select just the varieties he
wants, with the assurance that if
he follows instructions he is al
most certain of excellent results.
Peas are easy to grow in the
Pacific Northwest and if the direc
tions given in this Seed Annual
are carefully followed no one who
has even a small plot of ground
need be without this delicious
spring vegetables. Peas are one
of the most striking examples of
the fact that produce fresh picked
from your own garden has a flavor
which cannot be equaled by vege
tables that have stood for a time
after gathering.
This book also tells how to plant
and tend the different crops of
peas so as to have a succession of,
them from early spring until well
along in the summer and gives
suggestions how to prepare the
ground.
The new issue of Lilly's Annual
also contains a splendid array of
other vegetables, all of which have
been tested and proved by this re
liable old house. There are sec
tions, too, devoted to flower seeds
with reliable information for users
drawn from a long and ripe expe
rience with the growing of vege
tables and flowers in the Paeilia
Northwest. In addition there Is
a catalog of the most dependable
fertilizers, sprays, bee and poultry
supplies, etc.
Altogether, Lilly's 1922 Seed
Annual is a book that no gardener,
amateur or professional should be
without. A copy is available free
on request at your dealer's or from
the Chas. II. Lilly Co., Seattle,
Portland or Yakima. Get one
today and prepare for early planting.

Advertising is the oil that keeps the wheels of industry and business running smoothly
A Newspaper's TWO
Sources of Revenue
MM
UBSCltlPTIONS and advertising are the only sources of
revenue a newspaper has, and often the subscriptions
do not pay for the cost of white paper.
Advertising today, especially in newspapers, is the
greatest business getter there is. This is acknowledged
by men who know. People read advertisements in news
papers. They have been educated to do so. Every merchant in our
town ought to advertise. You remember the story about John Wana
maker. The first day he was in business his receipts were $24.G4. He
kept 04 cents and spent the $24 the next day in advertising. We all
can't duplicate this feat, but according to the best statistics available
three per cent of the gross sales should be put aside for advertising.
Possible you will say: "I don't need to advertise. I've been in
this town thirty yirs and everybody knows me."
Probably they do, but did you ever stop to think of the sales you
lose because your fellow competitor advertises? He may advertise the
same goods you have in stock, but the people don't know you have
them. The other fellow gets the sale because he advertises. And then
how much more business would you do if you did advertise?
We know of one merchant who advertised a lot of goods at 19
cents" a yard. They cost him 27 cents. Ho took a clean loss, but while
the sale was going on he could buy new goods at 12 cents. He put them
in with the other goods and the result was that he cleaned his shelves
of the old goods and he broke even on the deal. Advertsing and good
buying liquidated his stock without a loss.
We can't all be John Wanainakers, but we all can advertise in
proportion to our business. Results will bo sure if you advertise hon
estly and give service. A newspaper can bring people to your store,
but it can't make people buy your goods. Your clerks must do that and
it depends upon the service you give as to how successful your business
will be. "
What is done in the big cities can be done right here in this town,
if you will show the pep, give the service and advertise. Make business
good. You can do it through this newspaper.
