One of the mistakes mike by the
advertiser who has not had nuch rx
terience Is to make the advenle'ng
too general. The advertisem tat that
tells the most sells the most; not Se
long-winded ad, but the concise
statement of desirable facts, and es
pecially prices. People hesitate to go
to the trouble to investigate to find
out the particulars of an offer if they
can buy of someone else who gives
the particulars, as it Is generally con
Bidered that an advertisement i'
made general because there is not
much attraction to buyers in the
particulars, and the seller depends on
the personal influence as a selling
force, or takes changes of the inves
tlgator buying rather than seeking
elsewhere for better goods or better
prices.
To illustrate: We wanted to buy
cherries. Looking over the ads in
the paper, we saw two. One simply
said they had cherries to sell. The
other told the variety, stated that
they were without stems, and priced
them at 30 cents a gallon. We never
considered the first ad at all. Now,
these two ads were so worded that
their cost was almost identical, but
one drew trade and the other did
not. I believe I could warrant dou
ble the number of inquiries for the
second ad, and still I have no doubt
the fruit and prices were about the
same, for It was the Montmorency
season and the price was that com
monly asked.
So many poultry ads in the farm
papers make a general offer when
definite descriptions and prices will
briuK so much better results. The
small advertiser gets so little value
from cumulative efforts that the di
rect results are all that he can count
on, and attractive, point-blank state
ments bring these beBt. L. H. Co

Firestone built a single plant (Plant No. 2)

It is the balanced co-ordination of all parts
