if . WANTS A CURB MARKET
Monroe wants a curb M irket. At least, The Wal
ton Nows has editorially urged a Curb Market in two
separate issues of that newspaper. The success of
the Athens Curb Market has uttracted attention
throughout this section.
! The Athens- Curb Market has grown remarkably.
Mrs. Troutpian-announces a total of 252 permits is
sued to producers. These producers come all the
way from Dacula, back toward Danielsville, near
•Greensboro, Oglethorpe, Oconee county, Jackson
county and other counties rear Clarke.
According to conservative estimate some $450(5
worth of produce has been sold on the Curb Market
since it opened May 5. The women of Athens have
patronized the market loyally. It has not hurt the
groccrymcn; in fact a considerable portion of this
money has been paid to the grocery stores for staple
groceries. »
Sales amounting anywhere from one to sixty dol
lars have been made in a few hours time. One man
sold $00 worth last Saturday. On that day around
$1,000 worth of produce was sold.
The Curb Market has proved its worth. Like the
abattoir it will cause greater production in food.
The money "formerly sent out of Athens for food will
be kept here while cotton can be raised—by strict
attention to the. crop—and. produce surplus money.
Athens may never become a great food shipping
center.. If the Athens demand is supplied with food
by the people in this community and section hun
dreds-of thousands of dollars will , he kept at‘home.
If the home market alone-is supplied farmers will
be enriching themselves. At' present the home mar
ket is not being supplied with home grown products.
That is the immediate goal. Let’s work toward it.
The Walton News has the following comment to
• make oh the Curb Market: ■
“It appears to us that if,-under the auspices of the
women’s clubs iriHho. county and the -Monroe Kiwanis
Club, a cart) market program could be'put on in Mon
roe, it would-prove a great and profitable advantage
for gardeners, -farmers, chicken and dairy people. It
strikes us that if Miss Margaret Burge, our popular
and efficient home demonstration agent, could have
the time to devote to the munugement of such an en
terprise for two days in the week*—in the morning,
eight o’clock to cloven, the plan would work ad
mirably. ’ The market at Athens, under the super
vision of Mrs. Troutman, is doing fine. She has isl
I"
sued 187 permits to sell produce. At the curb mar
ket in Athens last Tuesday- u Mr. J. J. Adams sold
ten dollars worth of English peas and did it in a few
moments. Mr. -Holmes, of Whitehall, sold $15,00
worth of beets, carrots and spinach and said “it’s
great fun. I can’t supply the demand for spinach,
beets, beans and peaches.”. In two hours Tuesday,
thirty automobiles and wagons, loaded with produce,
sold out *t the Athens Curb.”
“IT SURE PAYS”
The first hatch of Coco-Cola was put on the mar
ket back in 1886—only 25 gallons o'f syrup, which
sold for $25,
Tlje Wall Street Journal comments that “the pres
ent company paid the original owners 20 million dol
lars for Coca-Cola good-will." '
."Goodwill" is another word for reputation.
Reputation ie modern business, itj the direct result
of three things—merit of product, methods of doing
busiifess, and advertising.
•'-..Coca-Cola, of course,'has been about as thoroughly
advertised as is humanly possible.
The’ $25, realized from tho first Coca-Cola sale,
'was immediately invested in advertising, for which
the first bill wa$ $46. From that small seed gtew
20 million dollars wprth o f “goodwill.”
It pays to advertise.
Most of the big advertisers started in a small way.
Venturing cautiously into -the water, they soon struck
out for the deep spots. They f6und that it pays to
i
advertise. . . ... . , ,
The William Wrigley Company’s first advertising
appropriation was $32—its entire capital—writes
John Allen Murphy in Printer’s Ink magazine. The
L. E. Waterman Company’s first ad bill was only
$62.50. Hupp Motor Corporation started with
$100.65 of publicity. The Borden Company started
with an advertising appropriation of $518.75, back in
1890; today It spends for advertising nearly a million
dollars a year. So on, a long list «
It pays to advertise. , 1
Murphy tells the story Of Royal Baking Powder.
The company started in a small drug store in. Ft.
Wayne, Ind., as a side line. Its first advertisement
appeared in local papers. The campaign then grad
ually spread throughout the state until the company
was able to move to.Now York. Sodn after that it
became the largest national advertiser of its day.
The Mennen Company started similarly—as,-a drug
gist's side line* ... *
What fertiliser is to farm soil, advertising: is to
business. It n&kes the see.d grow, th^ $00171 Into a
giant oak. J • h.
“It pays to advertise” is the.best slogan tohang
over the sales manager’s desk. > r .*? > ’ ‘
Golf tournaments are beginning to break into the
sporting columns now for their annual summer
meets. Golf at one time, r ot so many years ago, was
considered an “old mart’s” game and a healthy he-
man who essayed to put on a pair of nickers and
venture odt to the course did’ so with trepidation.
How it is changed! New golf is pushing baseball
as the great American summer game and Jhc beauty
