What Constitute« Advertising*,
lu order to allay a m isunderstand-
ing among some as to w hat consti­
tutes news and what advertising,
we print this very simple rule whien
is used by newspapers to dlfierin-
a tiate between them : “ ALL future
events, where an udinisslon charge
is made or a collection Is taken
IS ADVERTISING.” This applies to
organizations and societies of every
kind as well as to individuals.
All reports of such activities after
they have occurred is news.
AU coming social or organization
meetings of societies where no money
contribution Is solicited. Initiation
charged, or collection taken is NBW6.

We have tried to give Ashland a
ereditable daily paper! The volume
of business possible in a city the
siae of Ashland will not perm it of
as large a paper as we would like
to produce, but we have done the
best we could on the am ount of in-
coem derived, and feel th a t we have
don« well. The city is rapidly ad-
v aucing in population and prosperity
and the Tidings hopes to advance to
a b etter and b etter paper every day.
I HE WEEKLY TIDINGS
Wo wish to call attention to the
Weekly Tidings, which has been pub­
lished continuously for fourty-four
years in Ashland. It does not cir­
culate much in town, because nearly
every family in the city takes the
Daily Tidings, but it has a good cir­
culation in the Talent and ru ral
routes among folks who do not take
the dally. There are few families
in this end of Jackson county who
do not read eith er the Daily or
Weekly Tidings. They cover the
field, and afford the m erchants fine
advertising mediums for this trade
territo ry .
IMMIGRATION INTO CANADA
A recovery of im m igration into
Canada am ounting to 27 per cent
over the previous year occurred In
the year ending March 30, 1921. Of
a total of 148,000 im m igrants 74,-
000 were British, 48,000 came from
the United States and 26,000 from
other countries.
Em igration from the United State3
to Canada increased steadily from
loo in 1897 to the high point of
13 9,000 in 1913. The flow was
checked at the outbreak of the war
th e prospect o f conscription and
heavy tax burden, and la te r by the
increased prosperity of the United
States. An even g reater reduction
followed the arm istice, and the pres­
it recovery Is hut a small advance
toward resumption of the pre-war
movement.
American im m igrants are emi­
nently desirable, not only because
they are assim ilated w ithout diffi­
culty, since living conditions are so
much alike iu the two countries, but
because they are on th e average
w ealthier than the settlers from any
other country. It is estim ated by
the departm ent of im m igration and
colonization th a t the American set-j
tiers in 1920 brought w ith them
wealth averaging $372 per capita.
It is estim ated th a t the B ritish im ­
m igrant before th e recent enactm ent
prescribing possession of at least
$250, brought with him on th e av­
erage about $100.

DVR THIRD YEAR
The Ladies Auxiliary to the B roth­
erhood of Railroad Trainm en held
a picnic in Lithia park Tuesday lu
honor of Mrs. R. B. Dixon, of Duns­
m uir , Calif. The tim e was spent
with fandy work, a fte r which a pic­
nic dinner was served. L a te r In th e
evening th e ladies enjoyed a ride on
the m erry-go-round and ferrls wheel,
followed by a party a t th e Vining

dames R. B. Dixon, F ran k Brown,

Today the Ashland Daily Tidings
enters upon its third year.
Not­
w ithstanding its handicap of an a d ­
vance of 72 per cent in It« payroll
and 350 per cent in th e cost of news
p rint since it started, and in th e
face of a num ber of advertising con­
tracts made a t a very low ra te vgien
the daily started and which M>re
carried over during the second year,
it has been fairly prosperous. F o r­
tunately, as an offset to Its unprof­
itable local contracts, it was en­
abled, through long acquaintance
with foreign agencies, to secure suf­
ficient business a t a profitable ra te

commodities show th at last m onth's
advance was most m arked in bread-
stuffs, in meat products and in dairy
and garden commodities. The aver­
age price of clothing shows practic­
ally no change; in m etals there is a
distinct decline.
Exports and Imports
Exports ahd im ports continued
th eir steady decline during July, but
the country’s trad e for the month
resulted in a favorable balance of
$144,000,000, according to a state­
m ent issued by the commerce de­
partm ent. Exports for the month
aggregated $322,000,000, as com­
pared j ||t h $336,000,000 for June,
and 96W.OOO.OOO in July, 1920. Im­
ports for July totaled $178,000,000
against $185,000,000 in June and
$537,000,000 in July a year ago.
Agricultural Liquidation
Optimism is generally expressed
in th e a g ric u ltu ra l districts over the
money outlook, especially since crops
have been moving freely. The su r­
plus from the crop returns a fte r the
payment of farm debts j s not ex­
pected to be large enough, however,
to perm it much buying of goods. In
some sections, even the 1922 crop
will be needed for liq |id a tio u un­
less improvement in livestock prices
perm its earlier debt liquidation.
Wheat
The wheat crop figures reported
by the government indicate the
sm allest yield since the unlucky h ar­
vests of 1917 and 1916. O ther fav­
orable price factors are th e famine
in Russia and revised views of Eu­
ropean im port requirem ents on ac­
count of the prolonged drought. On
th e o th er hand the w eather has been
more favorable and the visible sup­
ply has greatly increased through
prom pt selling by the farm ers of the
southw est, northw est and Canada.
Wo<d
The Boston wool m arket appears
to have been fairly well stabilised.
The volume of domestic wool moving
is increasing although prices are
still held iu check by th e sale of
“ distress” lots of wool. The sue-
C IT IZ E N S B A N K
On all sides people may be heard
asking the remedy for present con­
ditions.
Expedients, artificial be­
cause always along unsound economic
lines, will not greatly stim ulate bus­
iness. The real and only remedy is
an adjustm ent more nearly equitable
throughout, the elim ination of waste
wherever found and the conversion
into actual results of the willingness
to work hard.
There is a growing conviction th at
we shall not pass into a rapid and
vigorous recovery during the next
th ree or four m onths. On the other
hand constructive factors have been
piling up to such an extent in the
past six m onths as to alm ost pre­
clude any possibility of a consider­
able financial strain or forced read­
justm ent. The present convalescing
period offers unusual opportunities
to those with courage and confidence
and resources sufficient to carry
them through tem porary setbacks,
to place them selves in a position to
make the most of the coming pros­
perity when it actually sets_ in.
Early m arketing of the crops has
brought new money into the agri­
cultural districts that, for the most
part, has gone into the payment of
back debts and the purchase of ac­
tual necessities.
This free grain
movement has offset in a m easure
the losses in railroad traffic from
greatly decreased coal and ore ship­
ments, and as a result the carriers
show good increases in net earnings.
W ell-m aintained
bank
clearings
seem to indicate th a t the public is
buying and stocks of m erchandise
dw indling, as the m argin between re­
tail prices and wholesale lim its set
by production costs become narrow ­
er.
W hile consum ers' goods (those
ready for final consum ption) are
steadily being consumed, produeerrf
goods are the next in line to be
strengthened. A lthough steel out­
put reached a low point of 25 per
cent of production in July, business
in hand and prospects ju stify the
belief th a t the tu rn has come in all
probability in this basic industry.
Debt liquidation and taxes, however,
prom ise th e absorption of so large
a part of this y ear’s income, p artic­
ularly in th e ag ricu ltu ral districts,
th a t restriction of norm al purchas­
ing power is likely to be delayed
until some tim e in 1922.
D unn’s index num ber of average
commodity prices as of A ugust 1
shows th e first increase reported in
th a t com pilation during any month
since April, 1920.
F o r June, al­
though several other compilers re­
ported a slight increase in th e price
average, the Dunn index num ber re ­
corded an average fu rth e r decline of
3.7 per cent. The index num ber for
August 1 shows an increase of 2.4
per cent in th e average during July.

cess of the recent goods openings
and the sold-up condition o f th e
mills of the leading interests have
greatly encouraged the wool trade.
The compilation of wool stocks by
the Untted States bureau of m arkets
as of May 1, 1921, showed three-
q u arters of a billion pounds of wool
in this country. W ith the new clip
of one billion pounds, this gives a
total of one and three-quarters bil­
lion pounds, or enough for a two-
years supply for our mills.

Bonds
One most encouraging develop­
m ent is the rise in bond prices and
the better demand for seasoned is­
sues which undoubtedly reflects the
beginning, a t least, of the accumu­
lation of surplus funds.
Rapidity
of absorption of new issues indicates
considerable funds seeking employ­
ment.
