DOES EVERYBODY KNOW YOU? One of the most illogical reasons a man can give for not advertising his business is the statement some-| times made that “Everybody Knows Me." This is egotism of the highest type. Why, my dear sir, our best friends Torget us in a very short time if we do not bring oursclves to their attention way; how much more apt therefore, to be overlooked by those who have no in- terest in us. cacept in the possibility that we mighit serve them better than we do not tell| s have some su- in some are we, some one el I them that our periority, o some money by trading with us, or| give some 1oa oo for the existence of our place of s, the latter is pretey ajn st in the shuffle, while t1o v toes to the more en- terpri-i cones ns, No o matter it peopl: vy 1. they like to be save them we can busin asked t, v +; they like to feel that you wasi their business and are not above «odieiting it To muke on impression you have to tell the puhlie a thing, not once, but many times, The natural way, the way experience of successful men has demonustrated to be the only “best” way is through advertising in the columns of the paper that is read by the people who are your possible patrons. By using a daily paper, you can hammer your facts into them every day, and you are bound to make an impression, REUREIEET oSyt The man who suggested that the Fla.! “ | paper took part, it was the absence lany state or county feents in having no fen J | STATES WHERE THERE | ARE NO FENCES; e - I Herron Theatre Ocala Banner.

They looked for; all the world like the pictures so conspicuous in farm journals, which, judging from our home products, we were all along led to believe Werel not true to life, but were used for advertising purposes only. Speaking in one of our letters of the magnificent looking cows we saw in Pennsylvania, .we said that they had udders as big as water buck- ets. Believe it or not, some of them were even larger than water buck- ets, for they are on record as giving more than a water bucket of milk at a milking.

It was a bigger day for W. L. Straub, editor of the St. Petersburg Times, than for anyone clse. For years he has worked for county diyision, and Pinellas may almost be said to be his creation-—at least, he did more than anyone else to create the sen- timent that is responsible for the new county. He celebrated Tues- day’'s big victory by getting out an extra edition of his paper, telling all about dt. Straub deserves well at the lmnds of Pinellas. 0- An article in this issue written by Hou. Frank Harris, of the Ocala Banner, in regard to the “No Fence Law,” is worthy of profound conmsid- eration. The writer truly observes that such a law would be a boon to Florida, but it requires some courage for candidates for the Legislature to declare themselves in favor of such a measure. Nevertheless, the cattle range must soon go before the march of progress, as it disappeared in other States when their pioneer days were done. Its passing was fought elsewhere and will be here; but when it is accomplished, Florida's live stock and agricultural interests will have made a great stride for- ward, and will be well on their way to their ultimate destiny of placing Florida in the front rank as a pro- ducer in these lines. neys, is “horse high, bull strong amlI pig tight.” ! nition of one of our famous attor-!indicate. ‘ 1 Now Jersey, Penn-| FAMILY'S WELLSPRING OF JOY In New York, West Virginia, ! s sylvania, Maryland, H Virginia, North Carolina, South Car- “°::n°:v|::.m.:':.:::‘:,:: R’:,':“v::m. olina, and Georgia, the states we' and a Bafety Pin. passed through, one could not force — back the lawful fence, such as we| Uncle John flew down the have in Florida, if he had an army at | stairs! his back.
