Corn wanted at the sheep ranch. A Big Cut in Price. The Nebraska State Journal has re duced its price to subscribers outside of Lincoln and suburbs from $7.50 to $5.00 per year , including the big Sunday paper , or1 00 per year without Sunday. The price of the Sunday issue will bo .50 per year. By this action it is presenting its state readers with thousands of dollars , but the result will bo thousands of new sub scribers , thus enlarging its usefulness and adding to its value as nn advertising medium. Instead of any lessening in the effort to make it a first class state paper , the Journal will be improved in every department , making it the best newspaper in the state for Nehraf-kans. It is published at the state capital , which has always been the center of things political and social of a state na ture. The. Journal's state telegraphic service excels that of all competitors which , with its complete associated press reports and special telegraph service from Washington , make it the paper for Nebraska people. A. L. Bixby's department is one of the most widely read in the west , and the fair and unprejudiced editorial treat ment of all state matters has made the Journal thousands of warm frionds. This big reduction in price which now makes the six week day papers eight cents a week , and the seven day paper ten cents a week , will make the Journal the most widely road paper throughout Nebraska.
