Sept. 9 -The sttsck on stocks of the last tew days was renewed today with increased vigor. Prices crumpled until active stocks a Inch had not already fallen to the low rOnt of the year relin quished what remained of recent ga.ns and virtually the entire list of prominent Issues sank below the low point of the August decline. The list of new low records Includes the Hill, Harriman and Gould shares. Read ing. Lehigh Vallev and Baltimore & Ohio among the railroads, and I'nited States Steel, Ama.gamated Copper and American 8melting among the Industrials, together with many lesser known Issues of both classes. In some quarters the weakness a acute Canadian pacific once more was a heavy loser, with a six point decline. Losses of most of the other leaders did not exceed two points. Foreign selling was aealn an Important factor. London sent over a lower range of quotations before the opening here and in the first half hour of trading abouc 25.0HO shares were sold for London account. Brokers' houses doing a direct cable busi ness stated that the London selling was due almost wholly to pressure from Berlin. The stock market was heedless of the dav's developments, which were In the main favorable. Predictions of a further Increase In the amount of the Vnited States Steel corporation's unfilled orders were borne out when the figures for August 31 were made known ss the market closed. The bank statement contained unfavor- oKIa faoniroa The InSS In CBSh ShOWn In the average table was larger than had i been predicted, and at tne same 11 me me loan account increased the surplus show ing by nearly $in,ono,0f.0.

As compared wun a year ago there has been a decrease of over 11,000 head. . , . in units nt the his shrinkage In receipts as coinpsred with a year ago, the cattle market this week has been ly no means satisfactory to the selling interests. 1 ne tendency of all kinds has been slow with more or less weaKness. rven tns wni beef cattle have eased off at the close of the week, the general marke is lmjfloc lower. Packers complained of a slack de mand for meat products at eastern con suming centers and other market points were more or less in the dumps so that the trade from start to finish was a drag. What has been said regarding beef steers would apply largely to the trade In cows and heifers. The tendency has been weak on most days and the market is now not far from 10c lower tnan a wee ago. While the het feeders owlnK to the mod erate supply of that kind of cattle have held up very wen oeing not mr imui mtaAv at tha close of the week, still the general market has suffered for the lack of a good buying support and 18 gen erally 10(515c lower. - A good many coun try buyers nave neen on ine niaunei, oui ruU thov have been very bearish in their vTews and have thus tended to bear rather than boost prices, onotntlnns on native cattle: Good to choice beef steers. $7.307.75:. fair to good beef steers, $6.5037.30; common to fair bef steers. 4-'eS-oo; gooa to cnoiue ncnui What Information Advertisers Need What Some Men Lose Who Lack It Do you know. Mr. Advertiser, who buys your goods? Do you know where they live what they read? Do you know why some buy. and why others don't buy? Why some prefer a rival manufacture? Do you know why some sections pay better than others? Why you lose trade when you lose it? Do you know what damage substi tution is doing how and where and why? Do you know all your opposi tion? Do you know, above all, how your arguments appeal? Have you tried them face-to-face? If not, we have something to tell you. We, too in the past have groped our way in the dark. And we know that it doesn't pay. We now canvass consumers, from house to house. We now go to dealers, from town to town, before we start sell ing in print. We know what they want, and why. We know what forces we have got to face. When we frame a campaign we know the actual conditions. We deal with no theory, no guesswork, no chance. The effect has been to avoid mistakes, to create defenses, and to multiply re sults. The facts will give you new respect for this Agency. We want to explain them to you.

' ' It was a heavy trade during the week, however, as fully 140,000 head- of stock arrived and changed hands, this total be ing the largest of any veek thus far this oason. Lambs made Up the bl bulk ot jtferlngs and feeder animals outnumbered lat grades bv almost three to one. The varldus. outlets proved ample, as present clearance Indicates,- but the tone to demand at times was slow and unsatisfactory. Uaily clearances always Involved bulk but were usually qualified by a few loads of holdovers. ' Lambs, running mre freely than any other class of stock, yielded to bear pres sure readily and suffered libertl declines, especially where packing orderg did not mest the competition of the country de mand. Good, fat lambs, now telling at $5 10(j5.40, show a slump of SivBfcOc, while feeder lambs drew a lesser cut of 1RCT25C. Thrifty feeder lambs are selling from $5 00 5.05 downward. Sheep, both feeder and fat. have been well sustained at all times and are closing steady to perhaps a little stronger in spots. The trade in thin and inbetween classes of stock has been the largest and most interesting, of course, as western ranges are furnishing feeder stuff rather than finished strings. According to packers' tab. fully 100,000 head of animals were puichasjd by country buyers and spec-1 ulators during the week, this estimate amounting to about 70 per cent of the entire receipts. This output Is not only the largest of the season but It means, as well, that the actual corn-belt demand Is rapidly expanding. Present accumula tion in speculs tors' hands Is by no means excessive.

It is the science of doing, by clever maneuvers, what used to be done by time, cost and attack. It does a year's work in a week, some times. It secures, by one move, nation wide distribution. It has placed many an article, from the very jump, on a profit-paying basis. It removes the uncertainties, mini mizes risk, multiplies selling power. Many millions of dollars, which were otherwise lost, have been pocketed by men who employed it. All this is told, for the first time, In a book. It reveals, as we never revealed before, the secrets of our success. The ideas have been gathered from a thousand sources. We owe them to countless able men. To pay the debt, we offer them to others. Also to give you a new idea of 1 what advertising efficiency means. Any man with a selling problem is welcome to this book. In justice to himself he should get it. Cut out this reminder; put it in your pocket. Then, when convenient, write us for the book.
