The idea in this case also is to attract
attention. l think it is wrong. 4 cut should
be used merely to illustrate the advertise
inent, and not as the advertisement itself.
Illustration should be subordinate In orJi-
nary, daily newspaper advertising the cut
should be small l like outline cuts about
an inch to an inch and half wide with
reading matter set down ore side.
Generally speaking, l would not have
more than three display lines in the ad,
and more often only two--the head line
and the name of the advertiser. And the
name should be smaller than the head
line.

When you get catalog from a
big mail order heuse, just look it
over and see what they will pay
you for your produce. Also investi-
gate and see howtheir terms of creit
are, in case you do not have the
ready cash; how much they will
subscribe towards keeping up the
sidewalks of your town. Ask them
to donate $40 or SIS for building
hard roads on the highway near
your city. Go the assessors books
and see what part of the school tax
they pay in your city. Just writ and
see what they will give to assist the
poor In your town. After yon have
done this and cave your reply, &C
to your home merchant, get his
price, deduct the cost of transport
alton on the goods you are wanting
to buy Of the mail order house land
see if it is not to your advantag tc
trade at home, says a thoughtful
writer.

While the people are paying so
much attention to the prospects of
an irrigation project on the east
side of the river, it would pay them
to give few moments to the con-
dition on this side There are sew
eral ditch propositions being pro
noted over here that have equally
as good chances of being built as
any that are now before the public
ON the east side, and the land that
is to be watered is as good as there
is in the state. The surveyors are
now at work on the old Leadbetter
ditch and the Sunnyside extension
is almost assured. If either of
these projects 60 through we will
have a large amount of land thrown
open for cultivation right here close
to Kennewick. We are not saying
nything against the east side pro-
ject, we believe the time is not far
distant when water will be put on
all that arid district east of the riv-
er, but while that scheme is being
worked out people who want to
get into an irrigated country that
will take back seat from no dis
trict on earth would do, we'll to
come to Kennewick and investi-
gate what it has to offer in the way
of arid lands that will in the not
distant future be supplied with
abundance of water.

lines of the old survey and ascertain
ing how much land will be irrigated
by the canal.
1t has been estimated by those who
have gone over the line of the canal
that about seventy five thousand acres
will be benefited. This land is nearly
all tributary to Kennewick is mostly
fine volcanic ash soil of good depth.
The fact that the government has sent
engineers here to look up this matter
is good omen and should it be built
in the near future Kennewick will eX-
perie ice boom that will place it in
the front rank of the inland cities.
Land up to within two miles of town
that is practically valueless will be
opene for cultivation, furnishing homes
for thousands of people.

towns. We have built up the
country first and are satisfied to
let the surrounding country build
up the town as the needs demand,
We have a city here of some 500
people and country population
around it highly adequate for its
support, in fact the city is behind
the demands of the country if theirs
is any difference. One man came
into the Courier office the forepart
of the week and in a conversation
he said this was greatly over adj
vertised town. He had jus: landed
and was going out that day to look
at some farm land. The next day
he came into the office and said he
owed us an apology. He said,
you fellows have gone at it right
and have populated the surround
ing country, now there is no doubt
about you having good town."

Some people come here expect
ing to find city Of from 1900 to
1000 people and are surprised to
find Kennewick has only about
500 of population. We have
been so thoroughly advertised and
have such a good reputation that
strangers cannot understand why it
is we are not larger. The ex-
PLANTATION is easy and is just the
opposite from discreditable. The
booming that has been done here
has all been in the interest Of the
country surrounding the city, and
has borne fruit far beyond the eX-
pectations of the original promot-
ers OF the valley. We have taken
the opposite course from that pur-
sued by the majority of western

The farmer who is larger than his
farm will win but the one who is
smaller is bound to lose. The size
Of the ranch is not what counts. 1t
is the size of the man that scores in
farming as we'll as all other occupa-
tions the race is to the swift.
