Whose Bills Are You PAYING

The following editorial on he subject
advertising appeared in Tuesdays issue
of the Grand Junction News and is so
full of argument that we give it space:
Last week was talking to one of the
merchants Of Grand Junction and he
told me that he did not believe in pay
ing money for advertising.
He said he could not see the wisdom
of dividing his profits with newspapers.
There are other merchants in the
same frame of mind.
l can't dig them out one by one.
That would take too long and l cannot
afford to take the time to do it. ss.-s
1t really makes little difference
whether you believe in it or not; if you
are IN business of any kind you have 10
pay money for advertising.
Mayhap you do not get the advertis-
ing, but you pay for it.
The advertising you pay for may have
the other fellows name on it, hut you
bet your sweet life you are paying for it.
The money does not come out of your
pocket because it never got into your
pocket; but that advertising influenced
and it was your business, your profit
that he got, that paid for the advertis-
ing.
Advertising is, without doubt, the
most potent force in the business world
today. You cannot avoid its effects
any more than you can sidestep the
ravages of time. You may try to side
step it, but you meet it face to face.
1t is there and is there to stay. 1t is a
business club that you can WELD or not,
just as you choose, but, whether you
are fighter or merely an innocent
bystander," sooner or later you will
get yours with large and fulsome get.
And don't yol forget.if, either.
Now, Mr.. Merchant, you can get into
the game and win few points or not,
just as you choose, but it is a game
where the hard hitter gets the decision,
and it is your privilege to hit few
wallops.
There is merchant in this town who
max es it point, whenever he buys
goods of any kind, to see to it that the
line he buys is an advertised line.
He tells me that goods advertised
by the manufacturers sell better than
those without any such backing. He
admits, and admits freely that adver-
tising establishes standing for goods
and makes them easy for him to sell.
He also admits that the strongest
competition he has to meet is from an
other line of goods, not worth as much
intrinsically as the line he carries, but
which is better advertised; admitting
that the kind of advertising goes long
way toward selling the goods.
Advertising has made more million
aires out of the men who bought it than
has any other one commodity of the
business life.
Advertising, judicious advertising,
persistent advertising will make Grand
Junction the trading center of the
Western Slope if the merchants will
use it.
Every day that you put off going into
a systematic, vigorous advertising cam
paign you help the other fellow build
up business that you will have to tear
down, step by step, just as he built it up.
That other fellow may be in Grand
Junction, he may be in Salt Lake City,
he may be in Denver, but wherever he
is. he exists and is waxing fat off the
profits he is taking away from you.

PanhandIe's New Mill

The lone mill resembles the mill
of the Panhandle Co. at Spirit
Lake, and while the mill there is
modern in every respect. yet the
past year or so, since this mill was
built, has seen some marked adj
vance in mechanical application
and such newer designs in equip
ment have been applied to the lone
mill. The capacity of the lone
mill is the same as the Spirit Lake
mill, $4,000 feet per 10 hours run.
While the mill here is both steam
and electrically driven, the lone
mill is entirely electric driven, each
bandsaw equipped with motor and
auxiliary starting motor. All con-
veyors and saws haye individual
motors and steam is used only to
drive the two 1000 horsepower tur-
blne engines and dynamos in the
power house. By applying electric
drive throughout the necessity for
shafting, betting and huge Corliss
type OF steam engine is done awav
with and there is great economy
OF operation thus effected. The
power plant is of brick construc-
tion,the mill of timber, the grading
sheds of timber and on a level with
the second floor of the mill, because
the yards are on a bench higher
than the first floor level of the mill
The planning mill is to be of steel
fireproof construction and the burn.
er, on the bank of Calispel creek.
Is OF great enough construction to
care for all the refuse. The dry
kllns will have capacity of 100000
feet per day. There will be q
70 miles OF track in the yards and
the motive power for transporting
through theyards is storage battery
electric motors. The capacity Of
the log pond is 100000 feet of
logs, and Of the yards 100000 Of
lumber.
The mill is running with but one
shift at present, but night shift
Will be put on as soon as possible.
The Panhandle Co. is to be con-
graduated over the successful start
ing Of the new plant.

What is regarded by State Cecil
ogist Henry Landes as the richest
DEPOSITS of tungsten exising in the
Northwest has been partially de-
veloped ON state lands in Stevens
county, II miles north OF Deer
Park Prof. Landes was sent by
State Land Commissioner Ross 10
investigate and make report on
these lands, and he passed through
Spokane Sunday night on his re-
turn from a thorough inspection OF
all the prospects now under lease
from the state, and in discussing
the investigations he has made ex-
pressed himself very enthusiastic
ally over his discoveries.
The state has been leasing these
lands for two-year periods in 80
acre tracts to various parties in the
vicinity of Deer Park, and some OF
them have proceeded to an extent
where it is necessary for them to
secure longer leases in order to Sc
cure capital to conduct successful
and profitable operations.
Already few leases have been
extended for period of 80 years,
and Commissioner Ross concluded
before making any more extensions
to have the state geologist make a
thorough inspection of the proper
ties in order that he might the
better be able to act in accordance
with the best interests of the state.
The lessees on some of the prop
critics have a mill for concentrating
the ore practically completed and
ready for operations, while others
have been delaying further invest
ments pending action on their ap-
plications for 30-year extensions.
The state, by law enacted in 1907,
is precluded from the sale of any of
! it's mineral lands and receives 3 per
cent of the gross returns from all
mining operations.
The deposits Of tungsten are
found in pure white quartz. and
while it is very rich, in order to
make shipments of ore profitable
about eight tons of ore must be
concentrated I'M to one.
The returns from the leases go
directly into the state school funds,
and if the development work is
continued along the lines it has
been undertaken it is the opinion
of Prof. Landes that the state will
derive considerable revenue from
this source.
