Can\nOffer\nTHERE are fifty-five regular weekly newspapers In British Columbia. They are published In a widely scattered\nfield In communities with populations of from 300 to 400 to\none of 10,000. Sixteen are published In communities of less\nthan 1000 population; fifteen in communities of 1000 to MOO\npopulation; seven In communities of 4000 to 5000; few ta\ncommunities ever 5000 to 10,000. These weeklies appeal ta\n145,000 of British Columbia's population. The news ta these\nnewspapers Is mostly all local, because that Is what Interests the readers, and the advertisements for the most part\ntell what local merchants are doing. Tbe country editor\nknows the people he serves; they are farmers, lumbermen, miners, fishermen, prospectors, laborers, all. It is as-\n1 timated that the average farm family spends HMO every\nyear for things which are not necessary to raise crops. Ths\ntotal sum that Is spent by farmers In the United States for\nthose things with which to lire well Is tbe appaltag sum of\nthirteen billion dollars. Seventy-two per cent of all automobiles sold go to people living in towns and eomunltles of\nless than 5000 population. Using the same proportionate\nfigures to estimate the buying power of tbe rural population of British Columbia served by the weekly newspapers\nof the province, and we have something like 70,000 automobiles purchased by residents of tbe province ta towns and\ncommunities of less than 6000 population, and $6,000,000\nspent every year by these rural families for things whlcb\nare not necessary to raise c:ops. If one Is Inclined to think\nthat only a tew people, and an Insignificant few at that,\nlive in country communities served by the weekly newspapers let nun study these figures or consult the last census statistics. il'll'BP\"\nCloser Cooperation Between Rural and\nIndustrial British Columbia\n The Grand Forks Sun\nft\n102 million\nmarc cups of Salada\ntea were consumed\nIn 1930 than in\n1929 by the people\nol Canada.\nTelevision Will Be\nGreat Aid to tne Police\nstation WIBO.\nIn Qirner's home sevtral m'las\naway frrm the studio, the guests saw\nthe play produced upon a tiny scrten\ntv.o feet square, saw clearly the im-\nr.ges of the actors and hei\/rd every\nsound,evtn to the final kiss cf the\ntelevision honeymooners.\nlie receiving apparatus was a glorified appearing rtlllo set with a tiny\nhole in the front, through which the\npictures were carried to the screen.\n'flit B'.ocessful broadcast was made\npossi! le by new inventions of U.
