At the |v end of the summer she complained that her efforts were not appreciat"Look at that hen over there," aht said petulantly, "she hasn't laid K near as many as 1. nor such large ?'' ones, but she bus hnnbs ivriKnn . about her and poems composed in her honor. 'Taint fair ?that's what it ain't. Nobody says a word about me." "Madam," said the rooster, to whom she addressed her remarks, "thy trouble with you is that you don't tell the public what you have done. You lay air eg;? and then wad-, die off td the pond and never say a word about it, while that wife of mine never lays one without letting the whole neighborhood know it. If you want to get your name and virtues into the barnyard, you must learn to advertise every time and all the time." All of which recalls to mind a pcem once used by the cyclone Eva Tanguay in vaudeville. In this poem she described the dilatory tactics of a peddler of clams in Baltimore, who carried a fish-horn with which to announce his coming with seafood. The peddler, becoming discouraged over business in one block, did not continue to blast his trumpet, aDd, consequently^ made no further sales. The finishing line the nopm we recall as: "Toot your hornt mister, if you don't sell a clam?or others will outsell you." In early days the methods of advertising often were accomplished by the use of a bell in the hands of an energetic Town Crier. Today the American public lras the advertising ?reading habit to guide itself when seeking knowledge of things gener1 ally. o MAEIOX FARMERS BUSY.

Fair who was a visitor at The Herald office yesterday, "and they are as busy as bees plowing under cotton stalks and cleaning up their lands. 1 have just returned from a trip through lower Marion and down there it looks like MASTER'S SALE.

But ihey have had their lesson and now they are getting their lands in first class condition for next year's crop. They are usig big twohorse plows and burying the weevil deep down under the .soil.

They are taking the same view of the situation that the farmers of low; or Marion took of it last year and I am afraid they are going 10 regret it. If we will plow under the cotton stalks, clean the ditch banks and rotate our lands we can make a fairly good crop, hut if we do not take i these precautions we are going to suffer from the weevil next year."
