ANNUAL STATEMENT.
A MOST EXCELLENT ADVER
TISING MEDIUM. :
Will Go into Over Twelve Hun
dred Households and Read by
Over Five Thousand People
The Rates are Reasonable.
In a few days we will begin plans
for issuing the "Annual Statement'
of expenses of the county for the
past year, which, as heretofore, will
be sent out as a supplement to the
Franklin Times. This" supplement
will go into over twelve hundred
households in Franklin county, and
will be read bv over five thousand
people, which makes it a valuable ad
vertising medium. It is a perpetual
medium from the fact that it contains
matters of direct importance to all
the taxpayers in the county and be
ing made into a good substantial and
convenient form it will be preserved
and used for ready reference quite
frequently.
Our representatives will wait upon
the merchants and business men o
the county within the next few days
and give them an opportunity which
will be gotten up in pamphlet form,
will be neatly printed and will pre
sent an attractive appearance. The
rates have been put at reasonable
figures, in order that the smallest
business can get in.
