THE READER HOUR

Speaking of the value of the country weekly, Prof.
John H. Casey newspaper specialist of the University Of
Oklahoma famed for his work along this line, says in
recent article:
One way, and perhaps the only fair way of evauat-
ing country weeklys advertising space the Reader
Hour basis.
Like an iceberg four-fifths submerged from view,
most of the readers of country weekly newspaper do
not appear the surface of the papers printed crcua
ton statement
ANY country weekly is fully justified in numbering
its readers as five times its subscription lst-at least tour

goes the rounds of the entire family circle then kept
about the house unless lent to neghbor and referred
to throughout the ensuing week.

Advertising rates in The Country Weekly per one

Audited circulations coming. We might as we'll
get ready for them in the weekly field Auditing will do

using the goods made IN the Valley
and his cotton Texas-made suit, TO
demonstrate how little people know
Of the products Of their own home

many articles IRON canned gooos
to dry goods ne took a vote OF the
audience to determine how many
would pledge themselves 10 buy Tex

anlmous. enc man voting mo-, the
candidate remarking that the dis
ssnter evidently did not understand

MI. Talbot repeated In detail his
interview as carried in The Herald
yesterday ana the address he MADE
before the Rotary CLUB. advocating
the celebration Of q -HCme Pro-
diets Day III Texas.
Picturing his economic wheel OF
fortune which he SAID could be
started and kept whiriing by Texans
purchasing from each other TO con-
sumo surplus production, he ended
BY a plea for Texas to milk its own
Cow
He said Texas Is feeding a great
COW, the milk end Of which stands
ove many other states, and the
problem now be1ore the state Is TO
swing around that COW and milk 1t
IN the Lone Star state. His ad-
dress was free from vituperationS
against his opponent and II con-
tanned little against the democrat
ic party as a whole. except TO declare
tEat the government at Austin was
being run on q political basis instead
OF an economic one.
Following the address OF Mr.. Tai
bot a short talk in behalf of his
candidacy for congress was made
by Carlos Watson. He held that
John Garner had not properly rep
resented the Valley In refusing to
support the vegetable tariff. and en-
tered his claims to supplant him as
