ADVERTISING COST REDUCER, JOHNSON TELLS CONVENTION
(By Associated Press) INDIANAPOLIS, June 7. Advertising reduces the cost to the consumer Instead of adding an additional tax to the article, in the opinion of speakevs at today's general session of the 16th annual convention of the Associated Advertising clubs of the world, which opened here yesterday. It was also pointed out that advertising lifts the market standard and Is an essential factor in succesful distribution of goods. Reuben H. Donnelley, of Chicago, president of the organization, presided, and named a number of convention committees. One of the most important of these was the committee on resolutions, of which George B. Sharpe of Cleveland, will be chairman. "It is entirely wrong to look upon the expense of advertising as one of the costs which add to the price," declared Joseph French Johnson, dean of the New York University School of Commerce. Without advertising large scale production is absolutely Impossible and large scale production is the sine qua non of low prices. Furthermore, advertising sees to It that people shall get goods of the best quality. Advertising puts no royal crown on the head of a humbug." L.. D. H. Weld, manager of the commercial research department of Swift A 'Co., Chicago, stressed the importance of thorough analysis of product and market in planning sales and advertising campaigns. "There are still too many people who believe that advertising is more or less an expensive luxury, and that It is an expense that consumers must pay for if they buy advertised goods," .Mr. Weld said. "Advertising not only reduces selling costs by producing a greater demand for the same expenditure, but it also reduces manufacturing expenses by making posible large scale production, by bringing about a standardization of commodities and by transforming seasonal demands into continuous and all-year demands."

every respecct.

Acknowledged- The Biggest Development In Recent Years
THE FACTORY which produces food raising equipment is assured a permanent demand for its products. The Midwest Engine Company specializes in food raising equipment. The demand for luxuries and semi-luxuries may fluctuate, but the demand for Midwest products is as steady as the demand for food. When war had drawn on the animal and man power of the American farm to a dangerous point, the Midwest Engine Company perfected and marketed the Utilitor a small, practical, self-driven power unit that does the work in the field of one horse and, besides, does all the work on the belt that any good three horse-power stationary gas engine can do. Several thousand Utilitors are giving satisfactory service in the hands of users. At this writing 300 dealers are selling the Utilitor in this country and abroad. Many of the best known authorities have gone on record as saying that: "The Utilitor will be sold as universally as the best known srrtall car." "It is
the biggest development the country has seen in many years." "No matter how slow a farmer is to admit that any machine can solve the farm help problem seeing is believing. The Utilitor DOES plow successfully. It DOES do all the work of one horse. It DOES do all the work of a good gasoline engine." These statements are typical. The fact that such people as Luther Burbank, John D. Rockefeller, Dr. Wiley, C. F. Kettering, Orville Harrold and wife of Admiral Benson have bought Utilitors is important, but even more important is the fact that several thousand practical farmers have bought them and are getting service out of them in excess of anything they believed possible. Tell these facts to your friends who ask you what the Midwest Engine Company is doing. The world's biggest automotive success was founded on a product for which there is no larger natural demand than there is for the Utilitor. and the Utilitor is only one of the practical necessities produced by this great Indiana company.
