The Sauk Centre herald. (Sauk Centre, Stearns County, Minn.) 1886-current, 1915-11-04
THE GREATER MINNESOTA EDITION

The publisher of the Herald has endeavored with
the current issue to set forth of the manifold
advantages of Sank Centre, Steans County, Gen.
trail Minnesota, and Minnesota whole.
At first glance this would seem like "large or
der" but a careful perusal of every one of the 40
pages of this Greater Minnesota Edition of the Her.
aid will convince the most skeptical that Minnesota,
particularly the Park Region, and particularly
that immediate section adjacent to Sank Centre, is
the real homeland.
Weeks were spent in research gathering reliable
data for the various articles setting forth the ad-
vantages of this section. There have been vexatious
delays, never-ending amount of labor, and large
cutays in cash to accomplish the results achieved
Had it not been for the very complete Herald
equipment and the loyalty of the entire office force
it would have been impossible to publiah paper of
the magnitude and completeness of this issue
The "big idea" back of the issue at all times has
been to publish reliable data and issue booster
number that would rebound to the credit of Sank
Centre, and incidentally to the Herald
Undoubtedly facts relative to Sank Centre
have been overlooked, and unquestionably grevous
have crept in, but when considers that
there is much to be said about Sank Centre and
her activities it will not be at all surprising if
something has been omitted.
We are under especial obligations to Hon. Frank
NJ. Eddy for special articles Minnesota, the Park
Region, the Herald story of We olden time and other
articles. Charles Kusba has rendered splendid SER
vice in the preparation of large number of well
written special stories pertaining to the business in
terests of the city.
Over one and one-haf ton of Nicollet book paper
was used in the Magazine sections. There
10000 impressions the cylinder press, and at
time there ton of linotype metal in type.
Every line of type and. every bit of material used
from the Herald plant. Usually "booster"
editions contain large amounts of display advertis
ing and much boiler plate for filling purposes. Not
one display advertisement appears any of
the thirty-two pages of the magazine section of
the Greater Minnesota Edition of the Herald or one
line of plate matter.
The publisher also wishes to express his app1eca-
ton of the loyal support given by the business and
professional men of Sank Centre. The advertising
matter will just about pay for the paper cuts and
overtime, we hope. Booster editions bring
the publisher financial returns commensurate with
the labor and cash expended This is not complaint
rather expected it in the beginning. Months ago
over 400 newspapers of the state signed their in
tention of issuing booster numbers this fall most of
and their immediate locality the entire continent
and the result should mean large influx of desir-
able citizens into Minnesota in the near future.
To the thousands of strangers who will receive this
issue wish to impress upon you that in no in
stances are the statements overdrawn. If YOU are
looking for the best lands in the world at reason
able price, investigate Minnesota, and particularly
that section around Sank Centre. If you are look
Jig for an ideal place to reside, where the people
are hospitable and law abiding, where educational
church and fraternal privileges are the best, and
where ideal climatic and healthful conditions
shound, come to Sank Centre-A. M. w.
