o 
We are si ill willing to supply reliable 
seeds on time to reliable parties who have 
a good home credit, but hereafter it must 
be done this way : If it will be an accom- 
mod ttion for you to get three month’s time, 
go to some responsible merchant in your 
town who knows that you are responsible, 
and get him to order whatever you need 
for you in his name. If he has a fair 
commercial standing we shall know it, and 
will send him the goods, possibly at prices 
which will pay him for his trouble. 
Is this offer harder than it is fair? 
Returns from Advertising. 
Some advertisers think that because an 
advertisement which appears to-dav is not 
followed by an appreciable increase of 
sales, the advertisement has done no good 
and the theory of advertising is false. 
Though it is perhaps impossible to insert a 
notice that will not be read—let any Didy- 
mus put a three-line card, “Wanted—A 
Dog,” in the obscurest corner, and he will 
be convinced of this—it is not to be expect¬ 
ed that the moment a person casts his eye 
upon an advertiser’s announcement he sets 
out for the advertiser's store. He may not 
at the time need any article in the mer¬ 
chant’s line, or he may deal with another 
house. But if the representation is attract¬ 
ive he will almost inevitably, whenever he 
needs anything of the kind announced, 
turn to the paper where he saw the card 
and give the advertiser a trial. The mer¬ 
chant should regard his outlay for adver¬ 
tising as he would that for painting his 
building or putting up his sign-board—as a 
necessary charge upon the whole year’s 
business, the effect of which is not to be 
perceived immediately. Men do not sow 
wheat one day and harvest it the next. The 
man who has begun to advertise must 
keep on advertising if he desires a contin¬ 
ual increase in the volume of his busin ss. 
He may keep a steady clientele of satisfied 
customers, but the chances are that some of 
these will be detached by seeing the advan¬ 
tages of other dealers persistently advo¬ 
cated. He will eertainly not attract new 
patrons. They will go elsewhere, just as 
they would seek another store than his if, 
on coming to his door, they found it locked 
and shutters up.— Van Duzers Iron Pert.
