SOMETHING TO CACKLE OVER

Almost unbelievable is the fact that
hens all over these United States are
busy turning in their share of the
one billion, forty seven million dollar
poultry industry. Government statis-
tics show that last year the value of
poultry products in the United States
exceeded the value of the entire 1923
wheat crop. The egg business forms
an important part of the economic
structure of our nation, and eggs as
food are highly nutritious. Almost
everyone has few hens which, like
dogs, are very faithful dumb crea-
lures. Long live the chickensl
Idaho County free press. [volume] (Grangeville, Idaho Territory) 1886-current, 1924-09-04
THE BASIS-TRY 1T

The basis of all advertising is cir
culatiOn. This is not only true of thu
big national magazines and the city
dailies, but is true as well of the
country newspaper The Saturday Ev'
ening Post with its million and q
quarter circulation demands and gets
from seven to eight thousand dollars
for full page ad. The Ladies Home
Journal gets even more.
The editor of the Idaho County
Free Press is endeavoring to make
a standard county seat newspaper,
viz: Eight pages every week, all
printed at home, with very little if
any outside material. The sworn cir
culatiOn of the Idaho County Free
Press from Jan. L, 1924 to July 1,
1924 was 1925. 1t may be slightly
less in the next six months, as we ex-
pect to cut off a number of dead
heads and outside subscribers who
are hard to collect from. The circu-
lation however will not fall lower
than 1900, of which 1900 are in
Idaho County and direct buyers in
Grangeville.
When it comes to prices ON job
printing, our prices are all based on
the Franklin Printing Price List, with
a discount of from 10 to 10 per cent
on account of the slightly lower cost
of living conditions in the country
than in the city.
All prices of everything connected
with the Idaho County Free Press |
will be the same to everyone. No
special prices to anyone. Unless
special arrangements are made, all
bills for advertising, job printing, etc.
will be made out the first of each |
month, and remittances will be ex-
peeted not later than the Goth. All
bills we owe you should be sent or
presented Immediately after the first
Of the month, and our check will fol-
low at once. We thank you.
