Purdue Crop Report Warm dry sunny weather prevailed ; no rain fell. All growing crops are in fair condition and farm work progresses uninterruptedly. Corn is maturing rapidly, and most is nearly beyond danger from frost; cutting has begun and corn is rapidly put in shock; the crop in gen eral will be large. Rye is coming up nicely. Clover thrashing progresses, with a fair yield nearly everywhere. Buckwheat and millet harvest commenced, promising a fair yield. Tobacco is being housed rapidly. Tomatoes and sweet potatoes, although in fair condition, are late and in danger of early frosts. Turnips, sugarbeets and sorghum are doing well. Potatoes in the southern portion are not good, but in the northern portion the yield is good ; digging has begun. Plowing and seeding wheat progresses everywhere with the ground still in line condition; some farmers in the southern portion are holding back for fear of ithe tty. Apples, plums and pears are abundant; much cider is made; j apples are very cheap. Pasturage has started well, but soon needs rain again. Hogs are scarce , cattle in general is in good condition with green food.

The Solid Truth. There are men in every town who do not advertise. You may not know them. Very few do. They call themselves business men, hut they are not. Everybody who is in business is not a business man by any means. You find the man who does not advertise in the dark side street, with dingy surrounding and a general air of dilapidation hanging about him. He is not really in business. He is only .hanging to the ragged edge of the business world. A great many men who spend money for advertising do not make it pay. They would not buy a farm and dump a lot of wheat or corn on its unplowed surfa e with the expectation of reaping bountiful crops but they treat the advertising space they buy in just that way, and then wonder wh}’ the harvest doesn’t come. Don’t imagine that you are saving money by patronizing cheap advertising mediums. A small space in a high-priced paper will be found to pay better than a laige space in a low-priced paper. On the same principle that you would buy good ground if you wanted to raise a crop of wheat, buy good ad vertising space to reap a harvest of dollars. Don’t imagine that be cause you cannot put a lot of money into advertising, you cannot afford to do any advertising at all. Many ot the most successful advertisers in the world today started out b}' inserting a few lines of local in a single paper at a small expenditure. The only business so far discovered that is not helped by a liberal use of printer’s ink is that of the bank robber, or the confidence man. Retail merchants frequently get the idea into their heads that because they sell things that the public* must have and sell on a low mar gin, advertising would not help them any. There never was a more erroneous notion. Judicious advertising will increase any legiti mate business, and the grocer, the dry goods merchant, an}* one who has anything to sell, and who does not use ins local paper and in other ways keep himself before the public*, is neglecting one of the most powerful aids he can find in his efforts to attain success.—Pres* nnd Printer.

took Hood’s Sarsaparilla, and soon began to improve; could soon eat without distress. Four bottles of Hood’s Sarsaparilla and a box of Hood’s Fills took away all signs of the grip.” Geokgk Marlet, Green Oak, Michigan. Hood’s Sarsaparilla Is the only true blood purifier promt
