From A Business StandPoint

When the price of building material and labor goes up the landlord raises the rent. When the price of cotton goes up the mills advances the price Of cot ton goods. and the merchant has to make a corresponding in crease in his prices. When eggs are bringing fifteen cents a dozen the farmer who has been selling for ten cents raises his price to fifteen. This is a fundamental theory of business. No business can survive without 8 fair profit. and there is only one kind Of business that attempts to go against this established rule and that is the country newspaper.
 For years the custom has been to charge one dollar. and pay when you please. The result 'has been that out of q list of one thousand subscribers the pub fisher got about $600 and lost S400. When paper, printing materials and labor were cheap he just about played even with the game.
 But he cant do that now. La bor has doubled itself. paper in. creased nearly 100 per cent, type and materials of all kinds are ur 75 per cent and the cost of living going up. With this condition of affairs facing the country publishers it's up to them t
