the Mckay storage project The through which
thory given this work has already passed the house and
the best information that the senate will make change a
fecng project So if this estimate of the situation is
rect the way all for early start Once begun
rest assured the government will continue the work.
How important the Mckay project may be when it
known the storage capacity of the reservoir to be erected
near Pendeon equal the capacity of the Cold Springs
reservoir AS concerned the amount of water
available end farmers will be doubled though this is
scarcely true consider the diversion dam and reservoir
below Hermson The Mckay Improvement will give decided

Who Pays For
Advertising?

undrum when Heck pup and as you odoubt know
Heck is very old dog now.
But then, now, the conundrlm had an answer.
And the answer is: Advertising pays for itself.
Which to say that neither the consumer nor the deal
pays for the advertising in either higher prices or low
cred quality. i, 81, Som. t,o ,...... 4,.. = .l
There's an illustration which has been going the
rounds for long while 1t is worth repeating here.
and are competitors in the manufacture of rubber
nipples for babies feeding bottles. Both produce 100000
nipples year and neither advertise The nipples cost
each manufacturer IL cents each to make and they are
sold to the dealer for IA cents Thus each manufacturer
makes profit of cents on each nipple he SELLS
determines to advertise and appropriates eenton
each nipple sold and presently finds his market expanded
to demand for 100000 nipples year lss
When he gets to making 100000 nipples year he dis
covers that economies in manufacture thus made possible
make his factory cost cents So instead of making
cents on each nipple he's making cents and selling
twice as many m >rrF s.a.t
So next year he increases his appropriation to cents
per nppe sells 100000 and gets his factory cost down to
cents-a profit of cents-and the price still remains
IA cents to the dealer. Fill. y. N ,a ...r
Thus encouraged the third year he increases his ad-
vertsng appropriation to cents"forevery nipple sold
and enjoys distribution of 500,000-and through fur
ther economies made possible through huge quantity
ducton he gets the factory cost down to bedrock figure
Of cents per nipple Then he decides that his profit is
too long and he cuts the to the trade to IL cents
cents lower than the beginning priceand makes cents
profit.
Meanwhile continues his enterprise without adVertls-
ing and is found standing sths factory cost continues
at IL cents profit cents and the dealers price IA cents
x is clearly in the commanding position-he got there
through advertising He sells his nipple to the trade for
cents less which affords the dealer opportunity to
make longer pro-an and you can guess whose nipple he
buys and pushes. Meanwhile is making cents against
Zs2 cents profit.
Thus the advertising paid for ITSELF gave dealer and
manufacturer longer profit cost the consumer
and probably in some cases less
Good advertising pays its own way every time.-Mer-
chandising Advertising.
