Advertising Vegetables .
In the growing of fruits and vege-
tables, business methods are as neces-
sary as in any other line of commer-
cial,effort. One of the first considera-
ions is to let people know what you
have to sell, 'To do this best and quick-
est, advertising should be done in the
local press, To some growers, the.
idea of paying for space in a news-
paper is something to be shunned.
Why should it be? There is no reason
why market gardeners should not an-
nouneed in the papers daily whatthey
have on their delivery. wagon next
day. Try it and see. Do not start to
advertise unless you intend to follow
it up. When writing the advertise-
ment be original. The statement that
John Jones grows the best vegetables,
in this locality," will not.bring..mark.
ed results. Be seasonable. Ted about
one thing at a time. Always use the:
same position in the paper, even if it
costs a little more money. Back your
statements with a superior product
and you will soon become convinced
that it pays to advertise. -Canadian

FOR THEFEET
Ladies! is it reasonable to invest .$20.00
in , a hat and wear cheap, ordinary shoes ?
The best gowned woman in our town is
fastidious about her footwear.
Her shoes harmonize with her
gown and headgear. Other-
wise she would not be cor-
rectly gowned. You know this lady.
Do your know why she insists on
RELINDO
SHOES?
IX'ere ate a few of the reasons: The Relindo Shoe is tailor made
for particular women. It's an apt expression of the latest
style --built to fit on a "bast" moulded from the human foot,
Relindo Shoes need no breaking in. -You Can walk as easily
the first day you put them on as when
you've worn them for • a month.,
The pneumatic cushion heel—an exclu-
sive feature of Relindo Shoes—makes
them so much superior to the next best
that there is no comparison.
The pneumatic cushion is sunk in a
pocket in. the heel as shown in the cut.
It is resilient—honeycombed with air
cells, making walking easy,graceful and
natural. Von do not know what shoe
comfortand style means until you wear Relindo Shoes.
