NOW IS THE TIME FOR SOWING GRAIN AND THE COLE Thr^Fiirrow GRAIN DRILL Is The Proper Implement with which to do it. It is generally conceded that wheat and oats planted between September 15th and September 3Oth have fifty per cent, better chance of a maximum production than that which is planted later. This is true for the reason .in a large measure, that May is usually a dry month and cuts the grain off. / Then again, it is imperative to plant grain crops early, so they can be gotten off earlier in the spring, and a corn and pea crop planted c:: the same land, thus giving two money crops from the same land in one vear.

The Grand Chancellor is exceedingly anxious to accomplish something during his ad ministration th ut will result in mater 'ally benetitting the order.

You have? Good! Then you are in a position to understand what 1 am going to tell you about. "Ander son-My Town." The writer was here in this same town on one or two occasions five, and six years ago,-and to say that he is surprised at the growth of population and the tre mendous amount of building operations which have taken plac. in Anderson in the interim is expressing his wonder ment /erv, very mildly. No matter what the cause-whether it be the result of the Commercial Organization, the Great White Way, or the Interurban system, or something else, or a combi nation of all these. What does count is that the city of Anderson has grown a great deal in the past five or six years. In the rapid" development and building up of a town or city such as Anderson has proven to be, progress steps in and whether it suits every angle of our life according, to the way we had been living it before, we will have to adjust our lives to suit the new order of things, for in this day and time, anything or anybody which attempts to stand in the way of progress is very apt to be swept aside Or rolled underneath, and after the procession has passed some one will remarks'"He looks as if the 'Willipus-Wal lipus' had rolled over him." Demand for Morning Daily Newspaper. Among the first demands made on the New and Re juvenated Anderson by progress was a Morning Daily Newspaper, carrying the full and complete Associated Press- dispatches. There isn't a city anywhere in the whole United States of the size and importance of Anderson that hasn't both a Morning; and Afternoon Newspaper. Why? The people demand them, and as they foot the bills there is no valid reason why their wishes in the matter should not be compliedVith. Now, you might say that Anderson did not need two papers, but the people, arid mind you-the same peo ple who made the New Anderson not only possible, but an actuality were the verv same people who DEMANDED the MORNING DAILY INTELLIGENCER. Pasted Experimental Stage. The Daily Intelligencer has, in the small sr ace of EIGHT MONTHS, built ci circulation PRACTICALLY EQUAL ti) fhat of the afternoon paper which has been here for ien or twelve years. < . * This in itself should convince any "doubting Thomas" that the Daily Intelligent has passed the Expe rimental stage. The rapid and .steady growth of the morning daily should convince any thinking person that the Daily Intelligencer supplied a want here that had been keenly felt before. .- jv : .. .* Different Taste in Newspaper. - There are THOUSANDS of people everywhere whose taste in newspaper are so pronounced that to one class you could not GIVE a Morning paper; and to others you could not GIVE FREE an Afternoon paper. Hence -the demand in Anderson for a Morning Daily. in other words, the Daily Mail supplies the afternoon's field * in Anderson, and as proven by the rapid and steady growth of the circulation of the Daily Intelligencer since SASSEEN,1 Do Move it entered the morning field in Anderson, there was and is sufficient demand here for a Morning Daily, too. The remarks made herein relative co the two news papers. Morning and Afternoon, are for the benefit"Hf a few merchants in Anderson who have not adjusted .them selves to the new order of things since the advent of the second daily into the local field. These few merchants have seemingly taken a very narrow-minded view of the matter, figuring that the additional daily newspaper means nothing more than au additional expense. That /they will have to spend about twice as much for their advertis ing in the two dailies, without receiving proportionate returns, therefrom;, and in order to save this additional expense, they will cut one out of the dailies and use ONE Daily and one Weekly paper. This is all right as far as it goec, but it doesn't reach quite far enough. If it did, THERE WOULD HE NO REASON FOR THE DAILY INTELLIGENCER. There were ENOUGH people who wanted a morning daily established in Anderson to make it a SUCCESS from the very beginning, and the circulation is growing steadily now, with no simulation even though times are said to bc "hard." If there are ENOUGH people taking the AFTER NOON paper to make it PROFITABLE to you as an ad vertising proposition, then YOU can't AFFORD NOT lo use the Daily Intelligencer, for we will GUARANTEE that our circulation is PRACTICALLY EQUAL that of the afternoon paper. Another Point-It is not only a privilege, but your DUTY to your patrons to announce through thc medium of the local press, what you have to offer, etc. You must know that retail trade is mighty shy and timid; that it is very, very hard to get, and once gotten, it has to be guarded zealously and nursed carefully. Don't you know that if you make an announcement of importance to some of your trade in one paper, but don't use the other Daily, and one of your patrons, who subscribes only to the paper which you did not use, and is inconvenienced thereby he will get good and sore? Well, he will! Not to use both Dailies in Anderson is worse than to drape a piece of heavy black cloth over one of your show-windows, and never 'iSe it. It is like tacking signs along the fences and barns of one prominent highway, and just because you have tacked those signs along tba* one road, refuse to tack up any on any other road. While appreciating the merits and advantages or good salespeople, if it became necessary to choose, be tween the dismiss;! of one of your clerks, and the aban donment of EITHER of the DAILIES, I would MOST EMPHATICALLY recommend the former. Why? Not because I am selling advertising, but BECAUSE lt IS MORE IMPORTANT TO GET YOUR PROSPECT INTO YOUR STORE THAN ANYTHING ELSE WHICH ENTERS INTO THE SALE. You can sell him, or have the sale made by some other clerk if necessary, but thc CUSTOMER HAS FIRST TO BE CAUGHT BEFORE YOU CAN SELL HIM. Any merchant who neglects any legitimate, and hon orable means of attracting and holding trade is SHAME FULLY NEGLECTING HIS OPPORTUNITIES. For Benefit of Merchant. Merchants Duty to Patrons. Necessity im Advertising. e Ad an particularly; in the "West, but that Utting the embargo on Mexican cattle has offset this increase and that hun dreds of head pf Mexican cattle are being brought to this country daily and are being turned loose on the South ern market. Mr? Williams spoke very highly of tho" ty pe;, ot cattle being brought from Mexico to the United 01UH.0 auu trw? j m iiiiu m/u l ni' i ii vi arm ers could do worse than to purchase this cattle. .. i i ?. ? ??_ WOMEN TO HAVE RALLY DAY HERE Will Begin Thursday Morning ?st 10.30 O'clock end Many Fen tares Are Arranged nnlng at 10:20 o'clock on Thurs day morning, the .JP.
