LOST OF PI liLK ITV HIOHFii THAN EVER. (Continued from page I, column 5.) was approximately $21 for 1919 and vill be more for 1 920. "These are indeed serious times for country publishers and few seem to have realy analyzed the true reasons for the startling increase in cost of production. The prevailing prices of print paper, that by many seem to be largely responsible for increased cost pf newspaper production are in reality but a nominal factor with the country publisher, with limited circuation. Pay rolls have mounted startlingly the past few years and the day pf $15 printers is fast coming to tfie $45 mark. The little old drum cylinder that used to cost around $800 or $yuu erected in your snop, now costs three times thaf amount f. o. b. factory. The 10 by 15 jobber that some pf us have bought in tire past as low is $165 now costs the modest sum of $530. Same way with type, ink, and everything entering into the cost of printing. Why, even the "devil" now starts his ^profession in Minnesota with a minimum wage of $7.20 and In nine months draws down $11 a week. "Country newspaper advertising ^ates have been ridiculouly inadequate in the past, and in order that ;he country publisher may survive ind function in his community as he should, he must draw adequate compensation for himself and in addition nake a profit from his business. In 10 other way can "the country newspaper effectively serve its community md the nation as a whole. The advertiser and the subscriber are wiling that the publisher shall command m adequate rate for his services but ;hey will never pay more than the publisher has the courage and convic;ion to charge. Brother publishers, vour committee unanimously recomnends the accompanying schedule of ates for the benefit of yourselves, -*our families and your ccynmunity. ^.sk these rates and stick brother, dick. "You should have them and you an get them for the asking." Government Crop Report. The government crop report issued Tune 8th through the office of B.

Two Irshmen met at the crossroad store and Callahan observed out of the corner of his eye that Murphy was unusually wel lpleased with himself. "Why the broad smile?" queried Callahan. "Ah! Cal," ejaculated Murphy, "ye should see now the foine litter of little pigs that arroived out at my place last night! Oh, but they are the beauties!" "Good luck to ye, Murph! How many of 'em?" "Jist to be showin' ye the good sport I am," said Murphy, "I'll tell ye what I'll do. If ye guess?by gaily! I'll give ye the whole seven!" The Usual.Thing. "The welfare of the nation rests on a happy, contented and prosperous rural people," sonorously said the Hon., and then proceeded to do 110th; in^ to make them happy, contented and prosperous but trying to talk them to death, evidently holding that there are peace, surcease and balm of Gilead only in the grave.
