The other replied: "'In my opinion the adI vertisements are famr fronm being the least valuable part oIf it. I look themi over carefully and save at les ietimes the cost of the paper each week through the business adlvantages I get fonm them.'"

And if business men fail to give farm er's a chance to read advertise ments in the local naper, they are blind to their own interests, to say the least of it.
