CALLS DAILY PAPERS
BEST ADVERTISING MEDIUM
Publicity Expert Recommends Col
umns of Press to Men in All
Lines of Business.

Chicago, April 2o,-Daily news
papers, as effective advertising medi.
ums, were given unlimited praise by
President David l.. Taylor of the
| Iaylor-Crutchfield Advertising com
| pany at a great banquet given in
his honor by the advertising men
of Chicago at the Blackstone hotel
These statements by one Of the coun.
try, after a discussion of magazines
! weeklies, billboards and other adver-
| Using mediums, were received with
great applause by the advertising
mvn present
Il am for the daily newspapers
strong, because l appreciate the won
derful vitality of their immense cir
culation," said President Taylor,
who, as head of, perhaps. the largest
advertising agency in the country,
places millions of dollars worth of
advertising for over 600 of the lead
ing advertisers of the United States
and Canada
The daily newspaper is a great
and quick influence on the public
mind, being the carrier of the ev-
cry day news in which we are all in
terested and the advertising it con-
tains naturally becomes a part of
that news
The metropolitan daily newspa-
per can no longer be considered an
exclusive city proposition. 1t blan-
kets a great big portion of the coun-
try within the radius of the city in
which it is published. 1t is a quick
action, rapid-firing gun that gets
immediate results l recommend the
daily newspaper, not only to the
general advertiser for publicity, but
to the mail order and agricultural
advertiser, who wants to reach not
only the small towns, but also the
farming communities within the ra-
djus of each CITY,"
Taylors company is identified with
a number of great advertising sue
cesses. Four years ago he resigned
the vice presidency of the Lord &
Thomas advertising agency to be-
come a member of the Long-Crutch-
field Advertising corporation, the
name of which has recently been
changed to Taylor-Critchfield COM
pany. Taylor is now president and
general manager.
Among the other speakers were
Senator Lafayette Young, Editor
Robert II. Davis and Professor c.
W. Burkett.

THINKS FIRES IN MINES
CAN BE CONTROLLED.

Washington, April 2O.-Outlining
some measures designed for prevent
ing a repetition of mine accidents,
DR.. Joseph A. Holmes, head of the
bureau of mines, urged that mo
miner or operator should feel salts
lied until every precaution known to
the industry has been taken.'
He said mine fires, such as those
at Cherry, ILL.,, in November, 900,
with its z62 lives lost, and at the
Pancoast colliery at Throop, which
cost 70 lives, could easily be extin-
guished if promptly attended to. He
advised that the shafts, stables and
engine room when underground, be
Of fire-proof construction. If COM
Unstable materials must be stored in
the mines there should be ample wa
Ter supply together with other fire
lighting apparatus.
DR.. Hines urged the use Of only
chose explosives least likely to ignite
after gas or dust and the general
adoption of a system Of electric fir
ing "to be used at a time when all
the miners are out Of the mines''
Other methods suggested are that
only small quantities of explosive
needed for use in single day be in
the mine at one time, and under no
conditions should the powder and
the decorators, or caps, be carried
into the mine together, nor should
che powder or decorators be kept in
any mine over night, as dampness
may change their quality.
Although the safest plan, accord
ing to DR.. Holmes, is to prevent a
dust explosion is to wet the coal dust
throughout the whole mine, a thor
ough wetting in any part of blum
anous coal mine lessons the danger
of an explosion. The cheapest and
most satisfactory manner of doing
ehis, he continues, is to turn the ex-
hause steam from the mine power
plant into the mine along with the
air current.

covered territory three miles wide
and II miles long. The fire was set
by freight engine between Oacoma

the fire and thousands of tons of hay
burned. The fire was stopped at
