BANKS COUNTY JOURNAL VOL. XVI. ADVERTISING IS THE STRONG ARM OF BUSINESS Its Tremendous Power is Exercised Principally Through the Newspapers, Becaus e in this way it Reaches the Greatest Number at the Least Possible Cost Best Goods Are Best Advertised “Value for Value” is our motto. We give you a detailed state ment of our subscription list. Here you see what your money buys. If you do not get results, it is not our fault. We have the medium. Get up an ad with the right ring to it, and we will carry the glad news into 1726 good homes each week, to be read by 8630 people, who read The Journal. This is the average. Figure on the cost of sending a circular letter to so many people each week. What is the probable cost? It will cost you nearly two cents to mail a circular and to mail one to 1726 families would cost you $34.42. We have a better price than that, and besides you can not mail them for that sum. On Friday August 22nd, 19 13, we made a careful count of our subscription list and it showed that the list for that date num bered 1726. This is some list for a small town in a small county.
