A YEARS PROGRESS
At SAN BEN|TO
Continued from page one.)

our exhibits of farm products and
send literature to friends in the
| North and East. | do not believe
there is a commercial club building
in the United States better located
or more effective than the one VIC
now have here. We have started
and put through Trades Days for
the benefit of both our farmers and
the town of San Benito. Our bust
ness men and merchants have visited
Santa Maria, Mercedes, La Feria and
LHarlingen on a trade excursion and
they have gone one better-they
had a merchants trade excursion to
our farmer friends around San Be
nito. / would like to see our mer-
chants and business men visit the
farmers oftener to see the farms and
note the great increase of cultivated
area around San Benito. The mer-
chants are the most closely confined
class of men and it is beneficial to
all concerned for them to take these
outings through the country occas-
ionally. Numerous business build
ings and residences have been
erected during the past year in
amount of over $4,000. including
factories. | wish to mention the
two greatest assets toward the
growth of any town-a live CONNER
! cial club and a live newspaper; we
have both, but | believe the time is
now ripe for a daily paper. We
have taken the matter up with the
San Benito Light and they advise
me that they will agree TO start and
run a first class six column daily
newspaper if they can make a con-
tract with our business men for not
less than three hundred dollars per
month in advertising contracts, the
contracts to run for two years. |
consider this a very small amount
and | believe we will have no trouble
in taking contracts for that amount
of space. It is usual for a daily to
require contract for at least twice
/ this amount of advertising before
starting such a paper. | think we
! should appoint a committee of three
TO take the matter up and push it.
I would like for all who think the
time Is ripe for a daily paper TO hold
up their right hand. | would sug,
gest that this committee of three
canvass the town in the next. sixty
DAYS and see if we ear not have a
G:ily newspaper by October. Tn
San Benito Light has done a great
deal for San Benito and ! believe
that we should assist them in start
ing a daily.

these at $500 each would make a
total of $4,000 new money. You
do not get the results from these adj
vertising campaigns Immediately.
Experience has proven that in two
years after such a campaign is the
period in which the greatest results
are attained. No farmer will grab a
ticket and fly 10 San Benito as soon
as he has seen the exhibit. but he
gets to thinking about ii, goes home,
commences to make arrangements TO
go down and look over the new
country the following year. There
were AS, 000 issues of the miniature
San Benito Light distributed at these
three shows.
