HOW MAIL ORDER
FIRMS GET TRADE

Joseph Il. Malcolm. advertising man.
ager of one Of the biggest mail order
houses on the Pacific coast and an
old time newspaper man, had a conf
dental talk with the Independent news
gatherer this morning and he released
some of the interesting inside facts of
how mail order houses secure much
of their business. He said:
I'VE have a bureau whose duty it is
to read each week the country news
papers from all over the West and
Pacific coast. There is not a news
paper Of any consequence in our trade
territory that our bureau does not get.
This bureau looks over these news
papers and when We find town where
the merchants are not advertising in
their local paper, we Immediately flood
that territory with our literature. II
always brings results far in excess OF
the same effort put forth i'll territory
where local merchants nse their local
newspapers freely"
Just q word to the local merchants
by the Independent. You merchants
Of Elko can kill much of the business
OF these foreign competitors by adver
tising regularly in your own home
town newspapers. This is an argu
ment that answers, most effectively
those that say that advertising doesn't
pay. And, If you please, local mer
chants who do not patronize the home
paper, are usually the first to wan
favors of the local editor, and if they
fail to see the name of their firm II
print they get sore about it. Wake VI
and advertise.

MEYER ALSO FAVORS
INTERCHANGE TRACKS
Elko. New, May II, 1916.

Mr.. McFarlane's article on a Free
Interchange between the S. p. and
w. p. tracks has been called to my
attention, and hasten to take advant-
age of the opportunity offered to Sec
ond the Motion"
The merchants most certainly need
a Free. Interchange, and the advantage
that would follow its installation. The
most important of these advantages is
the fact that we would be allowed to
buy our goods in whatever market Of
fered the best Inducements. Today,
because of warehouse conditions, ETC.,
We are compelled to buy our flour and
millstuffs in n certain market. Given
free interchange, we could buy these
articles where price dictated, and not
according TO delivery conditions.
Prior to the building of the w. p. we
were compelled to buy where railroad
service permitted, and since the build
ing OF the W. =. we are still permitted
to buy in the same markets, because
we lack competition" Prior TO the
building OF the w. p. we had only one
railroad, and therefore no competi
ton; since the building of the w. p
we have two railroads and no com
petition. a free interchange, as sug
gested by Mr.. Mcfarland would RENE
dy this condition. and give Eiko two
railroads in fact, instead of in theory
The idea of practical. instead o.
theoritical, competition appeals to m'
very strongly, and l, for one, want tt
see the merchants get busy"

w. E.. Page, a well known mining
man OF Tonopah, was a visitor in the

"The Tonopah G. Tidewater railroad
has just unloaded drilling machinery
at Death Valley Junction to be used
in drilling for water in the Amaragosa
desert In an effort to locate the Anna
ragosa river, which is supposed to
flow underground through the desert"
said Mr.. Page.
THE river disappears near Beatty
and comes to the surface in the lower
part OF Death Valley. Experiments
made by university engineers at Le'
land, Nevada, resulted in the finding
Of water and the district has since
produced variety of fruits

purveyor of information, good cheer
and good accommodations at the Hotel
