Show Tue Country Paper One of the gratest factors for good in any community is the local news paper. O.ie of the farmer's best friends should be the editor of the home paper. The local paper helps to make living worth whil; and what would we do without t? We are always asking some favors of the local editor, but what do we give h m in return? The small amount of $1.00 to 52 00 for a year's subscription. If he tails to give us proper recognition or for the very slightest reason we stop the paper. We kick at him because he fails r.o do this and we expect him to do ' many things we would not do ourselves, j How many farmers ever advertise in : the local paper when thev have any-j any-j thing to sell? Farming is the greatest business in the world, but a single maker of chewing gum spends more money advertising than all the farmers combined. If advertising will help this kind of business why cannot we use -it to help farming. One way to adverise your farm is by nicely printed stationery. Choose a name for your farm, then have some let-t;r let-t;r heads and envelopes printed at the local newspaper plant and use it in all correspondence. It will advertise your farm and your town. Support the local paper by supscribing for it and give the man who is running it a kind word for the good he is doing. It will help encourage him, for most country papers need your moral and financial support. Utah Farmer. |
