An instance of the value of the Ad-
vocate as an advertising medium is
given when we say that a prominent
farmer recovered a steer that had been
estray for several months by the in-
sertion of a small advertisement in

vertise their losses or wants, what
they find or have to sell promptly the
result would be a great benefit to
them.
