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. The bouse
was attractive with its decorations
of spring blossoms. During the eve­
ning piano and vocal music was
given by Mrs. Callahan and Miss Cal-
lahan.
P. H. Roche and son Jack, were
here from Ridgeway, Wis., several
days this week. Mr. Roche is a re
tired merchant who Is seeking a
farming location in the west and
stopped off here to give this part of
Umatilla county the "once over"
with a view of buying alfalfa land
and permanently settling here.
