Speaking of advertising, we have a letter from one of our patrons who have been advertising with us from the start, who say they are advertising in several other publications, and that they are getting more replies and more business from TROTWOOD’S than from any of the others. We are going to publish their letter in the next issue, so look out for it.

Dr. E. Marshall Harrell, of Media, Pa., offers some good horses for sale, as he thinks he would like an automobile better than the horses. The doctor probably knows best, and no doubt has marked the price low to make a quick deal.

* * * * *

Dr. W. R. Spooner, of Republic, Ohio, offers a good trade or cash deal on Daughter Militant.

* * * * *

C. H. Roberts, of Rochester, Minn., will find what you want in case he has not got it. Would like some one reading this ad. to buy all his horses, for he says he is coming to Tennessee to live some day.

Confederate Veteran

THE _VETERAN_ A VALUABLE ALLY.

In action upon the History Report at the Louisville Reunion, June, 1905, the United Confederate Veterans adopted with enthusiasm the following:

It is appropriate to mention the official organ of this body, the
CONFEDERATE VETERAN, founded, edited, and conducted exclusively for
the benefit of the Confederate soldiers’ name, fame, and cause, by
our comrade, S. A. Cunningham. For many years it has been the
official organ of our own great Association as well as of the United
Sons of Confederate Veterans, the United Daughters of the
Confederacy, and the Confederated Southern Memorial Association,
publishing the proceedings of their sessions, their work, and their
achievements. Thus it has been the medium through which all that
concerns the work of Confederate Associations can be so published
that their coöperation may be made effective. As a magazine devoted
to the objects of these Associations it is a secure repository of
war incidents, biography, reminiscence, history, and documents, and
is already a full treasury of Confederate data. It is very
gratifying that this ally of ours has attained a high position among
our country’s magazines. Its issue of 22,000 copies this month
proves its popularity and certifies its stability. _But your
committee believes that in consideration of its worth and of the
broad area of its circulation, South and North, it deserves the
united support of this body, and it would become of greater service
to us if all Camps and Chapters would adopt measures to double its
subscriptions._
