THE TRUE CITIZEN
THU SI7RVIYAL OF THE FITTEST.
ROGER BABSON ON NEWSPAPER
ADVERTISING
Roger W. Babson, the statistician,
is also a recognized authority on the
question of advertising. Mr. Babson
has tried about every method of ad
vertising that has suggested itself or
has been suggested, and his conclu
sion, reached after due deliberation
and discussion with other experts who
e.re his associates, is that newspaper
advertising is the best kind.
Mr. Babson is at present spending
sometime in Florida, but he is keep
ing in close touch with business af
fairs generally, and, therefore, any
thing that he may have to say con
cerning business conditions is always
read by business men with much in
terest. In a letter written a few days
ego, in which he discusses advertis
ing, Mr. Babson said:
We have long needed a reliable
measure of business psychology.
My associates having studied and
rejected several indices finally an
alyzed newspaper advertising line
age, both as a cause in changing
local business conditions and as a
barometer by which impending
improvement or decline can be
anticipated. The results in this
field of investing are exceedingly
interesting and pertinent.
In comparing newspaper adver
tising by months with the volume
of local business in 30 leading
cities for a period of ten years,
my associates find that there is a
distinct connection between these
two factors. An increase in news
paper advertising is paralleled in
almost every case by an increase
in local business, beginning the
same months. When the lineage
of local newspaper advertising
turns and begins to decline the
momentum gained carries the
general business in the communi
ty either from one to three months
before it definitely turns down
ward.
An invaluable characteristic of
newspaperadvertising is the fact that
the paper carries the advertising to
the homes of the buyers daily. These
buyers are given so constant a re
minder of what is being advertised
they cannot forget it, and when they
desire to make purchases it is the
most natural thing in the world for
them to consult the advertising col
umns of the newspapers, because they
know they will find what they wan*
there, where they can get it and the
price they will have to pay for it.
The Enquirer-Sun does not under
take to say that any form and adver
tising is not good. But take the bill
board for instance. Potential buyers
see the ads on the board if they hap
pen to pass that way, otherwise the
publicity is lost, and this is true of
circulars that are distributed —the re_
cipients see them, possibly read them
—the cast them aside. But with the
newspaper it is different. Prospective
tive purchasers see the business man’s
advertisement in the paper this morn
ing. They may not wish to buy im
mediately; if they do not, they will
find in the paper tomorrow mornnig
the same advertiser telling them
about the various articles of merchan
dise he carries.
The newspaper does not give the
readers a chance to forget that So
and-So are advertising certain things
for sale at an unusually moderate
price. It is constantly before them.
The bill board, the handbill, the poster
and the circular 'are out of mind al
most as soon as they are out of sight.
But the newspaper is a daily remind
er.
Mr. Babson’s conclusion, which is
enteirely logical is based upon his own
experience and that of ethers. We.
therefore, accept his view that when
it comes to advertising, the newspap
er is the best medium that has yet
been found —Columbus Enquirer-Sun
GROWS ELOQUENT IN PRAISING
DRAG HARROW
“My double section drag-tooth har
row has saved me more than any im
plements on my farm. Here’s how I
made a corn crop with it I followed
plow with harrow always twice daily
saying three times the work of a disk
harrow.
“I harrowed again after each rain
until seeding time, keepnig the
ground mellow and weeds down Af
ter planting corn crap, the same was
harrowed diagonally across rows un
til corn was 10 inches high, the last
harrowing leaving the corn almost flat
following the direction of the harrow
“Seven times this pland was culti
vated with eight-foot harrow It was
the only work done on foot on the
whole crop, having used riding disk
plaw, two-row planters, and riuing
cultivator. This was my best and
most economical crop of corn, free of
weeds, with always a dust mulch over
top of roots and three-fourths of the
work done with a simple drag-tooth
harrow.”
'So writes Mr. T. G. Wade of Rocky
mount, Va., who grows so eloquent in
praise of the drag harrow that he
drops into poetry—prose isn’t good
enough to celebrate the harrow’s merit i
We are going to pass on his verses to
our rea<ders: —
Use the Harrow
If you now are plowing deep,
Follow with the harrow.
Though the land be rought and steep,
Follow with the harrow
If you thing ’tis time to go—
The bell doth ring, the horn doth
blow—
Break those clods (they harden so)—
And break them with the harrow.
Before the weeds peep through the
ground,
Kill them with the harrow.
To always have a mellow mound,
You have to use the harrow.
If you will try, 'twill prove to you
The harrow In one hour will do
More work than man and horses, too
Can do with plow tomorrow.
Now if you will always use your head.
You’ll always use your harrow.
The grain, too, needs a nice soft bed,
To make it grow tomorrow.
Now take my hunch —I know I'm
right right—
The harrow use the pests to fight,
TJ: re'll be no clods, no weeds, no
blight,
When you always run the harrow.

former terms, it is pleasing to see a
decided improvement in the follow

dance, interest on part of teachers in
reading and improving in professional
work. Well, hundreds of communi

“Newspaper Advertising Determines
the Volume of Business”—Babson
Advertising Lineage Added to Accepted List of Barome
ters By Statistician—General Business Fall Off With
Steady Decline In Advertising.
Babson Park, Fla.—Volume of busi
ness is determined by the amount of,
newspaper advertising carried. Dis
cussing the results of a recent scienti
fic investigation to determine the ac
tual relation of this barometer to
business. Roger W. Babson point out
that the “decline in general business
is proportionate in most, cases to the
previous decrease in advertising
lineage.
“We have long needed a reliable
measure of business psychology,” con
tinued Mr. Babcock, “ My associates
having studied and rejected several
indices finally analyzed newspaper
lineage both as a cause in changing
local business conditions and as a
barometer by which impending im
provement or decline can be anticipat
ed. The results in this field of invest
ing are exceedingly interesting and
pertinent.
Business Increases with Increrised
Advertising
“In comparing newspaper advertis
ing by months with the volume of lo
cal business in thirty leading cities for
a period of ten years, my associates
find that there is a distinct connec
tion between these two factors. An in
crease in newspaper advertising is
paralleled in almost every case by an
increase in local business beginning
the same month. When the lineage of
local newspaper advertising turns
and begins to decline the momentum
gained carries the general business in
the community either from one to
three months before it definitely turns
downward.
“The figures on the city of Chicago,
for instance, illustrate this tendency
on a larger center. Newspaper ad
vertising in January, 1922, was 9 per
cent less than that carried in Decem
ber. General business in January in
creased over the December figures, the
drop forecast by this decline in news
paper lineage, however developed
during the first two months of 1922.
Both advertising lineage and general
business increased in March 1922, and
advertising turned downward in May.
General business followed that same
month.
Increased Lineage Revived Business
“Newspaper advertising turning
downward between June and July fore
cast the decline in general business
which started in the following month.
Advertising decreased between May
and June, business turning down de
finitely in June, Advertising started
up in September with general busi
ness. It turned down between Octo
ber and November and was followed
by business activity the same month.
In the year 1923, both general busi
ness and advetising increased in Feb
ruary and advertising again turned
downward in May, general business
following in June. Lineage increas

in June. Lineage increased in Sep
tember and was paralleled by the re
vival of fall business. A decline of
the November figures indicated a drop
in general activity which ma t teralized
after the first of the year.
“In the city of Minneapolis, advertis
ing increased during February of 1922
General business improvement began
to be felt in March. Advertising line
age turned downward in June and gen
eral business worked off to a low
point in August, Advertising line
age increased slightly in September
and was paralleled by the fall rise
in general activity. The drop in busi
ness occurrying during the first two
months of 1923 was forecast by a sub
stantial decline in advertising line
age between November and Decem
ber of the previous year. Advertis
ing and general business turned for
the better in February of 1922 and the
decline of advertising lineage be
tween April and May clearly indicat
ed the recession of business which fol
lowed. beginning in the latter month.
Both advertising lineage and general
business again turned upword dur
ing July, a month ahead of the usual
seasonal turn. The marked decrease
in advertising lineage following a high
point in October of last year, foretold
the decline in local activity develop
ing, beginning in November and de
veloping through December and Janu
ary of this year.
Net KesuJts From Scientific Study
“For scientific study of this factor,
it is necessary to eliminate seasonal
trends both in business and in adver
tising, so that you get the true varia
tion in the behavior of both these fac
tors. In this case the extent of the
decline ni general business is propor
tionate in most cases of that previous
decrease in advertising lineage.
“Continued studies wll made along
this line, but progress so far will
justify the addition of advertising
lineage to the list of accepted business
baromters, on the ground that in the
majority of cases advertising lineage
and general business increase togeth
er, but that the turn downward in ad
vertising is followed from one to three
months by a decline in local activity.
“It is hoped that extensive studies
now being made along this line by my
associates will make it possible to es
timate not only turning points, but
the severity of local business depress
ions by the relaitv decrease in local
business depressions by the relative
decrease in local advertising lineage.
“Long swing studies along these
same lines.” concluded Mr. Bafison,
son “indicate that wherever advertis
ing declines steadily over a period of
months, general business also falls off
materially and that in comparing sev
eral cities the locality suffering the
greatest loss in advertising lineage
like wise experiences the most severe
depression.”
