THE COUNTRY NEWSPAPER
In commentimr on the attack of a
metropolitan daily which attempted
u oeutue tne political influence ox
the country weekly and daily over the
land, Harry Hammond, editor of the
Byron. California. Times, one of the
liveat and moat progressive papers
in me country, says:
"While the country paper is small,
It is doing just as much, in its way,
for the progress and development of
the section it serves as any of the
larger papers, and m some cases a
great deal more, because, as a rule.
the bigger the paper the more its
opinions are dominated from the
counting room, something never
thought of by the country weekly,
which boosts its locality all the time
without thought of receiving pay for
such service.
"The people of a country commu
nity swear BY and not AT their local
paper. It carries far greater weight.
politically and otherwiso, with them
than does the paper of metropolitan
pretentions. The country weekly is
closer to the hearts of its readers
than is the case with the large newspapers."
DEVELOP WATER POWER AND
SAVE OIL
The need of hydro-electric develop
ment is shown by a late U. S. geolog
ical survey report. It shows that the
United State is consuming its oil sup
ply fourteen times as fast as the rest
of the world.
This fact is brought to the public
in a warning of fuel shortage to come
with the present rate of consumption.
The last figures on the world's oil
supply disclose that foreign countries
are using only one-half as much pe
troleum as the United States, while
they have seven times as much oil
in the ground.
Foreign countries are now using
about 200,000,000 barrels of oils
yearly, but they have resources large
enough to last over 260 years. The
United states at the present rate of
consumption of more than 400,000,000
barrels a year has only an eighteen
year supply. In other words, the
United States is using up its own oil
supply fourteen times as fast as the
rest of the world.
Instead of mining out petroleum so
rapidly, we must either depend more
and more on oil from other sources
or get along with less oil. Our chil- i
dren will doubtless do both. The i
Manufacturer.
