INVESTIGATE LAYS’ GARAGE Hermiston Advertising Specialist Learned Value of Publicity By ; - Experience An O. A. C.—Can a farmer advertise potatoes as a grocer advertises sug ar? Can he sell hay. grain, pigs or fruit by advertising? Do you know? These questions have been an swered in a practical way by Dr. George R. Varney, former farmer, now advertising expert and instruct or In purchasing and selling at O. A. C. “Systematic advertising has built up a big business for a wealthy Oregon stockman of my acquain- tance," he says. “He deals In thoro- bred cattle, and uses the local paper to tell his neighbors about them. . "I had to learn the value of print ers ink by hard bought experience in farming myself. I was brought up In Maine, where we had to haul our produce 27 miles to market. Had I known it then, could have placed a dollar ad In the local paper and saved tbe big expense of going to market.” Once using local advertising a far mer will always use it, thinks Dr. Varney. The difficulty is to convince him that it pays. He may place a sign board in front of his farm and ad vertise three-year-old pigs or hay or grain in hopes that a few persons passing along the road will see it. “By placing his ad in his home paper he could reach many times as many buyers, and probably be sold out before the ad appeared again,” says Dr. Varney. Dr. Varney, an enthusiast In blood ed rabbits, has had many years of experience in farming. “I practice what I preach,” he de clares, "and it has brought me re- suit?. I create a market for any rab- bits, and sell all I can produce." friends Saturday evening at a most enjoyable card party. Five hundred was played, and pretty gifts were given the prise winners.
