nervousness and sickness.

restores Energy and Vitality by Purifying
and Enriching the Blood. When you feel
its strengthening, invigoracing effect, see
how it brings color to the cheeks and how
it improves the appetite, you will then
appreciate its true tonic value.
GROVES TASTELESS Chill TONIC
is not a patent medicine, it is simply
IRON and QUININE suspended in Syrup.
So pleasant even children like it. The

COST OF PUBLICITY
HIGHER THAN EVER.
CONTINUED from page |, column 81

was approximately $21 for 1919 and
will be more for 1920.
These are indeed serious times for
country publishers and few seem to
have really analyzed the true reasons
for the startling increase in cost OF
production. The prevailing prices OF
print paper, that by many seem to be
largely responsible for increased cost
of newspaper production are in reali-
ty but a nominal factor with the
country publisher, with limited circu-
lation. Pay rolls have mounted start
lingly the past few years and the day
of SIS printers is fast coming to the
$40 mark. The little old drum cylin-
der that used to cost around $500 or
5000 erected in your shop, now costs
three times that amount f. o. b. fac
tory The 10 by 15 jobber that some
of US have bought in the past as low
as S165 now costs the modest sum of
$3.50. Same way with type, ink, and
everything entering into the cost of
printing. Why, even the ''devil'' now
starts his profession III Minnesota
with a minimum wage Of S7.20 and
in nine months draws down S11 a
week.
Country newspaper advertising
rates have been ridiculouly made
quate in the past. and in order that
the country publisher may survive
and function in his community as he
should, he must draw adequate COM
pensation for himself and in addition
make a profit from his business. In
no other way can the country news
paper effectively serve its community
and the nation as a whole. The ad-
vertiser and the subscriber are will
ing that the publisher shall command
an adequate rate for his services but
they will never pay more than the
publisher has the courage and convic-
ton to charge. Brother publishers,
your committee unanimously recon-
mends the accompanying schedule of
rates for the benefit of yourselves,
your families and your community.
Ask these rates and stick brother,
stick.
You should have them and you
can get them for the asking"
