COPY ALL BUSINES S LETTERS. 
The importance of retaining copies of all business letters cannot be over-estimated. 
It often happens that the ability to refer to a copy of a letter previously sent saves both 
time and money, and in mail}’ Instances is of very great satisfaction, settling disputed 
points, preventing lawsuits, etc. 
The simplest and best process we have ever seen for this purpose is called

as necessary for farmers to keep copies of all letters sent and Bushnell’s copying books
