The best work for the worker
and the best worker for the work
is a “ local ad.”
J. D. QUILLEN, Editor and Manager.
If you are doing half the busi

Grove, Oregon, under the provisions o f the Act of March 3, 1879 are only doing half as much ad
vertising as you ought to.
Will You Help Boost?
I have been in Cottage seven Grove just weeks and two
days, and that is just seven weeks longer than it took me to
learn that this beautiful city, like all others, is afflicted with
that class of knockers who think it smart to speak o f their
home town as inferior to all other towns, and who find fault
with the live men of the town, because “ t h e y ” always want
to run things;” and they’ ll tell you that, “ you can’t expect
anything better in this town,” and are always advising the
men who really do things that “ if you want to get anywhere
you must pattern this, that or the other move after Eugene
or Portland or Chicago or New York.”
Such talk doesn’ t sound good to the old-timer who is
really in love with his town how, then, do you suppose it
afreets the average new comer?
What would you do if, after working your way up thru
great tribulation to the portals of the New Jerusalem, you
should find St. Peter standing just outside the Pearly Gates
knocking the “ Realms of the Blest” something like this:
“ Naw, I wouldn’t go in if I were you. I get awfully
tired of it myself. You see the trouble is, there are a lot of
those old timers, fellows who came here about the time of
Abraham, who want to run the whole shebang. They’ ve
got a lot of old, rusty, out-of-date harps that rattle like a
loose board on your neighbor’s back yard fence, and yet they
think they ought to be allowed to lead the Celestial Choir.
Then there are a lot of late arrivals who bore me to death
with their never-ending harping on wireless telegraphy and
the aeroplane.’ Why, we had those things here before Cain
was born.”
“ Naw, I wouldn’t advise you to go in. You won’ t find
any peace in there, and if I couldn’t get out here once in a
while and get a breath o f fresh air, and get away from that
eternal wrangle, 1 believe I’d chuck the whole thing and go
to hell.”
After such a harangue as that from the gate keeper,
would you go into heaven?
Not much you wouldn’ t
IIow do you suppose a stranger feels on arriving in Cot
tage Grove to be met with a knock something like the above?
I)o you imagine it adds any charms to the town in his
eyes?
Don’t you suppose he has heard the story of high taxes
and town bosses many, many times before?
Suppose a salesman in one of the Cottege Grove stores
should approach a customer something like this; “ Yes we
have a very fair line of teas, coffees, sugars, etc., which I
would like to show you, but they are not quite as good as
Jones sells, and our price is a little higher.”
Do you imagine that fellow would ever sell anything?
Not to sensible people!
What a salesman must have is a belief in the superiority
of his goods. What a citizen of a town needs is faith in his
town.
We need enthusiasm. We can never impress outsiders
without it. We need to get out and make a noise.
We must feel that we have the best town in Oregon; we
must believe that we are surrounded with the best land, in
habited by the most enterprising and progressive people.
We have the location and the field for many manufacturing
enterprises ami we are beautifully located in the center and
as the outlet of several very rich and productive river val
leys, while the timber and mineral resources tributary here
are unlimited.
Get enthusiasm!
Make a glad noise
not a growl!
If you don't like the town get out of it!
If you do like it, go to work for it!
Don’ t sit down and leave it all to "They.”
There isn’ t a man in the city so big that he is exempt
from the duty of boosting, and there isn’ t a boy so small
that he can’ t help. The women and the girls are just as able
to boost as the men and boys, and in some towns the women
are doing more than the men.
We are looking forward to big things when the canal
opens, and when people come to the fair, and we can make
it a big year, if we get busy, but we must bo in training it
is none too early now to l>egin. Let us direct our energies
to this one end for a year, laying aside a whole lot of things
that don't cotint for much in the general balance of town
boosting.
Our people an* as capable as any other people, they can
get up as much enthusiasm as any other, they are as hard
workers, they an' as loyal to a cause, once enlisted in a
work, as the people of any town.
Let’s not scatter our shots, waste our ammunition or al
low our steam to escape.
Ix't’s all join a booster Club, one in which everybody
wants to work and no one wants to boss.
There’s an opportunity right now to do some good work.
Are you ready to take hold ami help?
Thomas Bolmer, once advertis
ing manager for the Butterick
publications, says: “ You cannot
kill an elephant with a pop gun.
Neither can you get a page effect
with an inch advertisement.”
Which is another way of saying
you cannot do justice to your
large stock of goods with a small
ad. Suppose-you try a page ad
in this paper.
The prohibitionists are now ar
ranging to make “ Old Kaintuck”
a dry state in 1917.
Roseburg had a “ two-day”
clean-up-campaign last week,
and now there is no place in that
city for the “ pesky fly” to gain
a foothold.
Work was begun last week on
a $75,000 Federal building at Ore
gon City.
The Baker grand jury, after a
six day’s session, adjourned with
an arraignment of
Governor
West, for his action in the Cop-
perfield affair.
San Francisco has the highest
per centage of bachelors of any
city in the country 45 1-2 per
cent o f men between 25 and 45
being unmarried.
The town of Milton has just
voted $18,000 in bonds to build a
municipal water plant.
The weather man treated
Montana to a blizzard accom
panied by a fall of temperature
to almost the zero point last
week.
Reports from the lower Rogue
River valley indicate a heavy loss
from frost on the night of March
26. The thermomoter fell to 19
at Medford.
Lodgepole pine, o f which there
are abundant stands in both the
| Rocky Mountain and Coast
ranges, when treated with pre-
j servatives ought to serve in the
! place o f red cedar as a pole tim
ber, says the department o f ag
riculture in a bulletin just issued
on Rocky Mountain woods for
telephone poles.
j So we send a list to Burpee, H
Order all our place can hold.
Then we wait a little longer
Till the ground is not so cold.
But when our garden’s planted
rrom the brussels-sprouts to
beets,
’ Twon’ t be long till we’ ll be
having
An abundance of “ good eats.”
