Ziegler’s Newspaper Advertising is accepted as the most effec tive and cheapest means of putting merchandise before the public. The advertisers in the Sherman County Journal are the firms which realize the value of having their names ever before the buying pub­ lic. They know the worth of a newspaper to the county and they appreciate its bene­ fits to themselves. Advertising space in the Journal can now be bought for one-third what it cost be­ fore the papers were com­ bined. It is worth more. It is useless to say that dol lars cannot be attracted to your place of business for they ,are being attracted to some one’s till. .
