A business man was remonstrated with by a banker friend, who argued that the classified want ad page was a poor place to secure customers for his business. The business man came back at his banker friend with “How do you know that I am using the classified column?" Why, I saw your ad there," said the banker. “And so does everybody else,’’ replied business man.

C., July I—To1 —To conserve burlap, to bring about a more i economical distribution of fertilizer. and to effect a saving in the cost of fertilizer to the farmer, the U. S. Det artinent of Agriculture in a statement just issued requests that no new burlap bags of less than 200 pounds capacity be used in the distribution of | fertilizer or fertilizer ingredients by i any licensee under the president’s proclamation of February 25, 1918, relating to the fertilizer industry. The practice arears to he common, the statement says, of using new burlap bags of less han 200 pounds capacity, jsuch as the 167, 125 and 100 ixiund bags, in the distribution of fertilizer and fertilizer ingredients. This seems to be a wasteful practice under existing conditions, particularly’ in view of the scarcity of burlap in this country. The department’s request does not apply to second-hand burlap bags , the use of which in the distribution of fertilizer and its ingredients is advocated in any size obtainable to save the new bajjs. THE DOPE MENU. Indianapolis, Ind., July I—Vanilla, strawberry and chocolate will constitute the ice cream menu of the patriotic ice cream manufacturer in Indiana the remainder of the season. As a result of the action of the Indiana Manufacturers of Dairy Products, appreciating the necessity for a reduction of the urfe of sugar in their products, binding themselves by res--1 olution to produce only the three 1 brands of ice cream. Dr. Harry E Barnard, federal food administrator for Indiana, today isued directions to county food administrators and their assistants to see to it that no ) other flavoring is used in ice cream. either in confectioneries or soda . fountains. I The penalty for failing to abide by ’ this ruling is that the offender be » deprived of any further sugar supply I! or a supply of products containing sugar, for the period of the war. I Dr. Barnard is well pleased with the action of the Dairy Products t Manufacturers, both on account of the enormous saving it will effect, _ and because of the mainfestation of appreciation, which he says must spread to every other line of sugar consumers, and call forth an equal willingness to sacrifice if there is to be no serious sugar famine at a time when the important need of sugar is most pronounced.
