Reaching the People

That the Pioneer is the best
advertising medium through
which to reach the people living
on the Flathead reservation, can
not be questioned. Last week, in
addition to the regular list, over
$50 extra copies were distributed
to settlers in the reservation
country. This week 400 extra
copies are being mailed and dis
tributed to people within the
same territory, every copy of
which is being paid for at the
regular rates, convincing proof
that advertisers recognize the
value of the advertising columns
of the paper. This issue of the
Pioneer will be read in the homes
of more than 1900 residents of the
Flathead country, a record not to
be approached by any other
publication.

famous valley or district in Mon
tana. 1t will be impossible for

When informed of the interest

The above shield is the en-
blem of the Independent Tele-
phone company which within the
last three years has made one of
the wonderful public service de-
velopments that has been made
in the United States. In this
time it has grown to more than
$4,000 successful Independent
Telephone companies with more
than 100000 subscribers.
The Independent Telephone
companies have always been the
pioneers in furnishing telephone
communication to the people
living in small villages and rural
communities.
Much attention is now being
paid to boosting the great Flat
head country and it is a worthy
effort. Perhaps one of the best
ways to boost the Flathead is to
keep Flathead money at home.
This can be done by encouraging
local industries. The patronizing
of foreign corporations means
the withdrawal of money from
the Flathead. Take for instance
the telephone business. One COM
pany is owned almost exclusively
by residents of New York and
Boston. Every cent Of profit
which the (BelD company can
make is withdrawn from the
Flathead and goes to promote
the commercial welfare of a COM
pany far distant from the Flat
head, and in which the Flathead
has no commercial interest.
The Flathead Independent
Telephone company is different;
it is owned by citizens of West
ern Montana and the Flathead.
Every dollar paid to the Flathead
Independent Telephone company
for telephone rentals and long
distance service finds it's way
back into the pockets of the citi-
zens Of the Flathead and West
ern Montana, thereby contribute
ing materially to the welfare of
Flathead citizens and to the COM
mercial prosperity Of the COM
munity at large.
Remember these things, you
who live in the Flathead, and
also remember that one of the
many ways of boosting the Flat
head is to not forget that you live
in the Flathead.
Our rates are So. rs per mo nth
for business and ST. Is per month
for residence and ranch tele-
phones.
Use Flathead Independent To-
cal and long distance telephone
service and Watch Us Grow.

At the time this paper is going

men digging holes and erecting
poles for that many telephone
companies in Roman, the Noun
tain States (the old Belly and the
Flathead Independent Co. both
using every endeavor to cover
the territory first. At the pres
emit time the Mountain States
has several phones in operation,
and preparations are being made
to install others as fast as they
are ordered. The Independent
has poles up and wires will be
strung at once. Both companies
announce that they will use the
cable system, thus doing away
with the unsightly wires so COM
mon in most towns. For this ac-
ton on their part they have the
thanks of all our citizens. All
the alleys are double poled, each
company having set poles in each
of them. Two exchanges have
been contracted for, the Indepen-
dent being in the two north
rooms of the upper story of the
Pioneer building, and the Noun
tain States having contracted
with M. Pablo for the erection OF
a building for that purpose.
