The following rough sketch of the railway system of which PaJmerstun is a centre shows at a glance the extent of the area covered by each morning's issue of the Manawatu Daily Times. The papers being despatched from Palmerston by the early goods .rains reach the centres specified earlier than any other newspapers can possibly reach them, and in addition to this various coaching services convey them to localities on both sides of the railway line. In the present stage of newspaper development in this country the morning newspaper necessarily has a much more extended circulation than the evening issues, because there is less -'lose competition among the morning journals. Every centre has its evening newspaper, the circulation of which is practically limited to its town boundaries, for outside these it comes into competition with others, which necessarily have their own local support. The morning papers, however, are published 80 to 100 miles apart from each other, and the respective circulation depends largely on which can first reach any particular locality. The Manawatu Daily Times, which is the oldest established newspaper between Marton and Wellington, is published in one of the most important railway centres of the Dominion, and its only competitors are published i.i Napier, Masterton, Wanganui and Wellington. A very large area of country, therefore, forms its snecial field, which fact will no doubt be noted by advertisers.
