Newspapers Old and New.

A Virginia publisher remarked IN
our presencs the ether day ihst the wave
os prosperity had not struck bin. IL
have more business" said he, "but
prices of labor and materials have nd
vanced so much that profits are slim"
The Petersburg In1ex-Appeal in die
cussing the same subject says that with
the constant advance in the prices OF
labor and of every class Of material that
enters into the making of newspaper,
the one-ccnt publications Of the country
sold for one-half cent to carriers and
dealers facing very interesting and
trying situation.
ain many instances" continues our
contemporary, especially OF the large
one-cent newspapers. returns from cir
culation, which in sane and normal
business conditions ought to be the
largest factor IN a newspapers income,
are practically eliminated as an asset,
the subscription not paying the cost OF
the white paper. 1t is not unusal to
hear managers of these newspapers be-
wall the fact that the more papers they
cell the more money they lose. From
every viewpoint Of the case this is mis-
taken policy"
In conclusion our contemporary says
that twenty-five years ago, when labor
and materials we're cheaper, and when
it was receiving Sc year for its daily
and 81 a year for its weekly, the paper
was little gold mine; and that the old
Richmond Dispatch vas most prosperous
10 those days and under those condi-
lions.
twenty-five years ago there was not
a daily Newspaper 10 Virginia whose reg
ulsr size was greater than four pages,
seven columns TO the page. If per-
chance one of them should add column
to the page, it vas subject of comment,
and other newspapers expressed pleasure
TAT this evidence OF our contemporary
prosperity"
The typesetling machine and the fast
printing press have wrought a mighty
reyolution-never mind the pun-bnt
the gain is with the subscribers. He
gets much larger paper, with greater
variety of reading matter, pictures and
spectacular typography; bat in many
instances the publishers profits are
smaller than they were in the good old
days of msn-printers and handled
presses.
But if the small newspaper was more
profitable, some tyro may ask Why the
publisher does not return to it. For the
same reason that the railroad men do
not tear up their tracks, destroy their
engines and cars, and return to the
staee.coach as means of transportation.
Newspapers, like railroads, must keep

Special to the Herald.
Detroit, Mich, Jan. 4.-The Light

cackle today. 1t was the opening day
of the. Michigan State Poultry asso-
Citations annual show. With several
thousand fowls, including about every
known variety and all speaking in diff
ferent tongues, 1t is not to be won
dered that the vicinity of the armory
sounded pretty much like a concen-
trated collection of barnyards.
Supt. E. C. Hungerford and
other leading members of the associa-
ton throughout the State have been
working hard for some months past,
and the result of their efforts is the
best exhibition of poultry and pet
stock ever seen in this section. The
display of prize winning turkeys,
chickens, geese, ducks and other fowls
is exceptionally large. A separate de-
partment is well filed with bantams.
pigeons, rabbits and other small ami
mails whose delicate constitutions and
aristocratic pedigrees will not allow
of their mixing with the common ele-
ment During the week that the show
will continue there viii be daily meet
ings of various clubs and associations
for the encouragement of fancy poul-
try raising.
