Advertising as a Farm Auction Booster
Auctioneer Cowley argues newspapers are the best advertising medium for farm public sales. He urges farmers to spend 15 to 25 dollars on ads, noting that a single additional buyer from newspaper outreach can offset lower costs and lift prices. He cites bills plus papers as boosting turnout and bids, especially for long-distance buyers who rely on newspaper lists.
