MINNESOTA WEEK.

Minnesota week is being observed
by all the newspapers of the state.
The plan was started by members
of the Minnesota State Editorial as
sociation with an idea of advertising
the great resources Of the state.
The Bemidji Pioneer today pub
fishes on the first page it's first ar
ticle of the week entitled "Home-
Minnesota Home
Governor w. s. Hammond has is
sued the following proclamation in
regard to Minnesota week:
'"To the publishers and readers of
Minnesota newspapers:
my attention has been called to
the proposed Newspaper Week, "
October 10 to 16, by committee
of the Minnesota Editorial associa-
tion. Permit me to say that I ap-
prove most heartily of this plan to
advertise Minnesota and trust that
many papers will join in the move
ment to give special mention that
week of the great and varied re-
sources Of the state, it's rich farm
ing country producing bread, butter
and beef sufficient to feed millions,
it's vast forests, it's great mineral
wealth, it's lakes and streams and
beautiful scenery. Every newspaper
in the state can with pride call at
tention to it's own prosperous COM
munity.
The publicity given to the re-
sources of our state will give our
citizens renewed appreciation of the
opportunities before them for &C
quiring the necessities and comforts
OF olffe...' But if the state is to- de-
rive the full benefit, Newspaper
Week should also be means Of
calling the attention of people In
other states to our rhealthful9 cli-
mate and fertile soil, to the guam
tity, quality and variety of the prod
ucts of Minnesota The publishers
must have the cooperation of pri
vate citizens and civic organizations.
One effective way in which they can
aid is by obtaining copies Of their
local papers during Newspaper
Week and sending them to their
friends in other: states. To do this
will help in finding new markets
and creating new demands for the
products Of Minnesota Min farms far and fac
