LESSONS IN NEWSPAPER MAKING ,
How many pounds make a ton ?
2,000 pounds.
You would not take J 800 , or 1700 , or J 600 pounds
for a ton if you knew it , would you ? . Of course not
well , then
Look at this
object lesson taking eight page's ( the average , daily is"
sue ) of foltr newspapers , as a'basis :
ni
The Omaha Bee Columns are 21 7-8 in. long1 ,
World Herald Columns are 21 3-8 in.-long1.
Lincoln Journal Columns ara 21 1-8 in. long- .
Sioux City Journal Columns are 19 5-8 in. long1.
Each line of The Bee is 13i ems wide. "Each line of
the others only 13 ems wide. This short weight doesn't
seem much , but in each 8-page paper we have this result
The Omaha Bee prints 292,0'10 erns or 697' inches.
World Herald prints 272,016 ems or 622 inche s.
Lincoln Journal prints 269,624 ems or 616 inches.
Sioux City Journal prints 250,572 ems or 572 inches.
Don't you see THE BEE gives you 75 inches more
space , or 3 colums , nearly one-half a page more than the
World Herald ; 81 inches , nearly 4 columns , more than
the Lincoln Journal ; 125 inches , or about 6 columns , more
than the Sioux City Journal ? In one week this amounts
to more than four pages of the World Herald , and with The
Bee's Saturday supplement , eight pages or a whole paper.
That's equivalent to eight Bees to seven World Heralds
each week , or nine pages more than the Lincoln Journal ,
or eleven and one-half more than the Sioux City Journal
each week ,
This is only the quantity of the news we'll have
lessons on quality later.
