IT PAYS TO ADVERTISE, SAYS JAMES BRITT

James Britt was in from Barkley township Wednesday and settled for his seed corn ad and had same discontinued. He sold every bushel of the corn he had to spare and could have sold several hundred bushels more as a result of his advertising in The Democrat. This want ad, which cost him but $1 for the four weeks it ran, brought him replies from all over this section of the state and some from Illinois, he stated, and he was more than pleased with the results. Those who are not using The Democrat’s Want Ad column in a similar way are neglecting golden opportunities, as the scores of well-pleased patrons who have tried it will cheerfully testify.
