KEEP on
TELLING IT

Notice the large amount of space
national advertisers are using In this
issue of The Silver State. During the
last few weeks advertising contract
after advertising contract has been
received, until space contracted for is
nearly equal to that used during the
boom business days during the war
and Immediately after. This effort
to commence advertising can mean
but one thing at this time, and that Is
that the big boys" can see where
people are going to have money to
spend soon and they want to be lined
up to get some of 1t. The "big ones"
evidently believe that within the next
sixty days something is going to break
loose. If that is not the correct inter
probation of the sudden activity. then
it must be these big sellers have su-
preme confidence in the power of ad-
vertising to sell goods even In dull
times. and If this is so 1t is sufficient
for our purpose
Here's one little business hint we'd
like to drop for the benefit of those
in Winnemucca who have something
to sell. and that is that most people

wants the railroads to hand over all
earnings and go borrow some more
at the bank.
We want everybody on earth to SUBJ
scribe for this newspaper. Poland
was given hundreds of miles of new
territory and is now trying to steal
more. Bryan wants to be President
Everybody else wants new clothes,
limousines, less work, more money,
more fame, more power, more every
thing.
And we all want 1t there below"
But what we get-ah, that's different.
What we all need is more patience.
common sense, and huge desire to do
what's right.

can't appreciate a good thing unless
they're told it's good. You've got to
make them understand It's good II you
want them to buy it. and once they
buy and find out you're right. they'll
keep right on buying it-and lots OF
other things along with It,
The way to create a sales demand
is to keep telling the story of what
you're offering in place where the
people you want to sell IL to will see
it. Unless you impress 1t upon their
minds you haven't told the story
fairly. II the first auto Ford turned
out hadn't been advertised the name
wouldn't be familiar to every man,
woman and child in the land today
You've got to tell the man you want
TO sell to that the thing you've got is
good. If you expect him to buy it. And
years of experimenting have proven
that the newspaper is the bes. me-
dunn on earth for reaching MIN and
holding his attention.
When we see success anywhere II
is safe to take advantage of some of
the methods used to obtain that sue
cess, without initiating. Such being
true. isn't 1t reasonable to believe the
small merchant can obtain results, on
a small scale. by using the same
methods big business man employs
TO secure big results? The big fell
lows don't scatter their fire-they use
newspaper advertising space.

THE OWYHEE
PROJECT

The good news that the Owyhee
irrigation project Is feasible" made
jaded Winnemucca business men for
get the country is In a state of bust
ness depression, at least for few
hours yesterday. That was the prin-
cipal thing they wanted to know-that
the proposition Is one that will stand
up under scrutiny after a business
like investigation.
Summed up, the preliminary repor,
shows that by expenditure of two mill
lion dollars total of approximately
10000 acres of Humboldt county land,
on. the east side of Paradise Valley,
can be reclaimed for soldier settle
ment, making the cost per acre about
$50 to put water on that land. If in
tensified farming Is practiced, SOL
der could take up forty acres and the
land thus would provide homes for
one thousand families-if eighty acres
were allotted to each there would of
course be half that number of fam
flies.
Five hundred settlers and their
families are not to be shifted at in
any community. Estimating the land
will be worth 5000 an acre with crops

THE PREACHERS
CONCLUSIONS

What the preacher said In Salt Lake
City last Tuesday while editing one
of the papers there. as related In an
other column, is the honest-to-good-
ness truth, whether newspaper men
like or not his allegation that they
care more for money than for right
and the best interests of humanity.
But newspaper men are not all to
blame. for were 1t not for the selfish
business interests which have weight
on newspaper utterances. such would
not be the case. Anyhow. people get
only what they insist upon having.
The silver state. [volume] (Winnemucca, Nev.) 1909-1925, 1921-05-26

the county would be eight million dol
lars. Another item not to be over
looked is the possibility of generating
cheap electricity. which if in sufficient
horsepower could be put into the
Quinn River Valley for cheap water
pumping power. Taken altogether
the magnitude of benefit to be derived
by everyone Is hard to comprehend.
Thus we see that as the old man
said, our troubles are many but most
of them never happen. In contem-
plating the wonderful possibilities OF
such activity. petty jealousies and
sQuabbles seem small indeed. 1t is
but another lesson that there is plenty
for all, and makes worrying about
whether a bootlegger or so can be
kept in town for the money he spends
seem like the reasoning of an imbe
cile. Opportunity in this county seems
unlimited, with a city population of
10000 people in Winnemucca not en-
tirely a great dream.
Perhaps some will remember that
during the November campaign The
Silver State succeeded in interesting
the Republican candidates elected.

IF you could get together all the car
i owners you know, you'd probably
find that their tire experiences had been
much the same.
Most of them have taken their fling
at Job lots" discontinued lines" and
surplus stocks" Soon or late, nearly
all settled back on quality first as the
one sound assurance of tire value.
AS soon as man forgets the cut
price tag, and comes to the dealer who
concentrates on full, completely
sized stock of u. S. Tires-he learns
what it means to get fresh, live tires
mot once in while but every time.
Not merely in the big cities, but in
