Already we hear t ilk of planting garden, and in some instances people have actually be gun to prepare the soil for the plant ing of seeds. Back in the Mis sissippi Valley and the far eastern states they will have winter yet for six or eight weeks, and if they even get started at their spring work by the first of April, they consider themselves exceedingly lucky. T he mails have missed connec tions several times in the last fe.% days, there being no outside mail neither Thursday nor Friday of last week. Arrangements should be made whereby the through mail for Bandon could be brought down or the Favorite in the morning when it does uot get to Coquille in time for the Dispatch the day before. We understand the Coquille River Transportation Co. is perfectly wil ling to bring the Bandon mail if they were given the authority from Washington. The matter should be taken up by the proper authori ties. By this method the mai would get here before noon on days when it had been missed the previous day, instead of being 24 hours late every time. hh Hecond Claaa Mailer. ■ February 4, 1909 ■ tendance being more than double . that of last yeir. Many fruit grow ers are unable to attend the course for the entire six weeks, but are able to come for a few days or several weeks. The course is open to them at any time, There will be two weeks more of apple packing and work in budding and grafting. In addition to this special lectures are given on the various phases of fruit growing, truck gardening, and landscape gardening. These short courses in horticulture and agricul ture, as conducted in the various state agricultural colleges are doing a great amount of good for the farmers. The Oregon institution is none behind others, and it would be well for as many Coos county fruit growers to take advantage of these short courses as can fin.I it possible to do so. W hat was thought to be a sub stantial bulkhead on the north bank of the Coquille river at this place, and which was completed only last week has proven insufficient, and on Saturday morning about five o’clock eighty-five feet of it was washed out. There is only one safe way of protecting that side of the river and that is to erect a cement bulkhead, and the sooner Uncle Sam gets busy with this project, the cheaper it will be for him. There is great need of a substantial bulk head on that side of the river and it is up to the proper authorities to build it. P q %T of C o ^UILL e R rer sound# good to every one living in this valley and t?ie people of Bandon will be glad to take the prop* osition, if other towns aloijg the river will assist; ttnd from report’re ceived from other places it would seem that it will not be hard to get them interested in the proposition. As far up as Myrtle Point, theie seems to be a general interest in tl e proposition, and people in that sec tion, we understand, are willing to tike hold and assist in the establish ing of such port, and will cast their vote in favor of it, providing the bill pa* ses. There • seems to be some opposition to the bill at Portland. The Myrtle Point Enterprise favors a Port of Coquil'e and has the fol lowing to say on the subject: "Op position to the new port bill being urged by Coos bay and other un developed coast harbors is develop ing at Portland, where it is assured that under the proposed law Astoria will have an unfair advantageover Portland. The truth probably is that in the new law Portland sees a means of developing other harbor, of the state to the disadvantage < I her commerce. It need have no such fear. Every step toward the development of Oregon will help a Portland. It can have no other ef fect. Should the bill be passed anc made a law. there sh uld be a port of the Coquille established as well as one of Coos bay, with an equitable division of territory. 4 II— Au I iterested and wanted so much in formation that I wouldn’t have any time left for my own business had 1 undertaken to gel it for them. You have ho idea how many people are looking in this direction.” Var ious commercial bodies of Oregon and Washington are planning to get out leaflets to be used as a lettei e.iclo‘.ure, emphasizing the wonder fully low colonist rates from the Fast—they are awaiting announce ment of Atlantic Coast and other points not yet decided by the Pas senger Association of the trans continental roads. The $25 fare from Missouri River points, $30,50 from St. Louis, and $33.00 from Chicago is the lowest named for three years. O ne of the country’s foremost and successful retail merchants declared in a recent public address that "Store advertising to be good, must be con tinuous not spasmodic, but regular. The advertiser who keeps at it gets the buying public to look for his advertisements and to always expect sjmething, and he should never disappoint them. I would as soon think of going out of business as I would think of going out of bus iness as 1 would think of stopping advertising.” This is the belief of all prosperous retailers, who in dividually and collectively proved that "Advertising hel >s to make the small business big; the big busi ness bigger, and the biggest busi ness safe.” No matter what the ■ size of your business may be you will be making a wise investment to expend in judicious advertising at least 5 per cent of your entire year’s receipts—it will return to you greatly increased, but the amount will de- I 1 pend with the wisdom with which you advertise and how you back up your published statements. While it is true that a business can be run without advertising, as can a. wagon without greasing, you’ll find 1 it goes hard-Umpqua Valley News.
