COST OF THE ARGUS PAPER SIXTY DAYS AGO vS.
 THE COST TODAY.

Sixty days ago the Argus
 publisher was buying newspa-
 per at less than $100 per; today ] it is costing $200 and it is next
 to impossible to get it eTen at
 Unat price.
 Less than years age it was costing less than $50 and we
 could get all we wanted
 During the past two weeks,
 tie Arus publisher has done
 l,.is Jest to get q supply of
 newspaper fvr the year of 1920,
 from tho leading paper con-
 ccrns O. Memphis, St. Louis, Chicago, Cincinnati, and the
 best thing possible is a prom
 ise from some of our old
 houses that they will try and
 take care of us from time to
 time at prevailing prices at that time, which is indeed a most unsatisfactory and un- certain way of trying to run the business. Advertising rates cannot be maintained at the same old rates, and yet the newspaper publisher scarcely knows how to regulate them. It's squally times for the coun- try newspaper man, these days.
 In order that you may under stand the situation better, the following taken from the last issue of the newspaper trade journal is republished, to-wit:
 Current quotations are still ranging all the way from seven to thirteen cents for roll print, with a higher price of any, where from one-half to one cent a pound for sheet print, and with a constantly decreas- ing supply from the mills.
 There is valid reason for the decreasing supply found in the coal situation. One of the big mills of the country. a mill that works almost exclusively on sheet print, reported on Tuesday that it would have to shut down by Thursday if it could not get additional coal. The conditions at this mill can be duplicated at a large num- per of others, and unless a is quickly found for the coal situation it is almost a certainly that half the mills i'll he country will be closed with n the next two weeks.
 "No one can do anything more than guess at the paper prices of the immediate future, put those who claim to be on he inside guessing that the ,op in paper prices has not been reached, and that the auction market conditions will with a constantly in- creasing price. They are also guessing that the small con- sumer who cannot deal direct with the mill, or with mill brokers, are very likely not to get paper at all.''
