This ls the second venture in to Main street investments made by Mr. Brett, the other being when he became interested In tho Ford garage property. Both these deals wero handled by Mr. Ward and both are of a size that places them close to the top, if not at tho very top, of the big transactions in business property in Klamath Falls.

H COUNTY AGENTS U WORTH OF HOME PAPER At their recent convention at the state agricultural coljege at CorvaUia the county agents of the state want on record against competition in any part of their publicity work with th community newspaper. Recegnizing: the burden under which the horn paper labors in these days ot high cost of material and low advertising rates, they refuse to do anything ta make that burden heavier. The. re solutions follew: "Recognizing the large part played by the community newspaper in de veloping community life and assist ing in the promotion ot programs of community betterment about whlck the farm bureaus are organized, and being cognizant ot the difficult posi tion in which these papers aro piacen Dy tne scarcity of news print paper and other high produc tion cost factors; "Be it resolyed, that the county agricultural agents of Oregon In con ference assembled this 9th day ot January, 1920, declare it our policy to lend fullest support to the com munity newspapers in farm bare and county agent counties." This resolution was passed unani mously on motion of George W. Kable, county agent for Benton. A discussion of the best and most practical means of carrying it oat brought out the following as desir able where applicable: Co-operate with the publisher ot the community newspaper in getting desirable commercial advertisement of supplies and equipment likely t be purchased as av result of. a ase- cessful nroleet. unil tn iri)HirvA,1vj. rj.. I TVrl"-!itt-7s?3&r!& '"ir&i news items, wnemer-reiewB.-to 'tfec community projects or not; endorse ment of Uncle Sam'iv campaign tor reduction of distribution cost by wide advertising, and the aim ot that college department ot industrial journalism to foster sales of certain, classes ot farm produce through ads in the community newspaper; advis ing readers of the Farm Bureau News that the News is not designed as a substitute for the local news paper; encourage the naming of the farmsteads and use of letterheads showing name and principal busi ness; avoiding all competition In commercial advertising. "Aid In securing commercial ad vertising of project requirements has tremendous possibilities," explained C. J. Mcintosh, in charge ot the campaign for selling farm produce through the local press, to the reso lutions committee. "Say the project ls for a silo on every farm. Many new silos will be bought as the cam paign succeeds, and why should not the silo factories and dealers bo notified of the campaign by the county agent, who could easily sup ply them with the names ot the local papers. "Doubtless many home-made silos would go up also, giving tho cement, lumber and hardware dealers an op portunity to put thoir wares before tho people Increased milk produc tion from tho use of the silage will call for dairy supplies, ensilage cut- ters, and much modern dairy equip mont. Tho best medium for selling these supplies is the local newspaper, because a very much larger ratio ot its readers aro real prospects." A special resolution was passed in favor of accepting no commercial ad vertising whatever except as the only means of keeping tbo news alive In any county, and oven then none would be accepted in competition with tho community press.
