This is a story of an honest fannel —several honest farmers (says the St. Louis correspondent of the New York Herald). It proves that farmers who engage in business as peddlers are honest—after they are caught with the goods. There appeared in a local newspaper the following advertisement: — If the fanner who cheated lady out of tbice bushels of potatoes doesn't bring them in the next day or two he will be arrested. He is known. It is perfectly apparent from re-1 suits obtained by this advertisement that more than one larmer had cheated St. Louis housewives. More than half a dozen housewives, when they arose next morning, were agreeably surprised to find three bushels of potatoes on the porch at the rear of their houses. They knew nothing of the ad. But they did remember having purchased potatoes the day previous from farmer peddlers. Even the woman who threatened "her farmer" with arrest got the three bushels which were due her. Moral: It pays to advertise. A good resolution for the New Year is to resolve to keep as much business as possible in the district. Anything that help? >he district helps the individual.
