Publication of Redding Herald Ended: Subscription List to Times-Tribune
The Redding Herald has ceased publication with the acquiring of the Herald's subscription list Monday by

to take over the subscription list. Starting this week, The Times-Tribune will be mailed to all subscribers of

also subscribers of The Times-Tribune will have their subscriptions to The Times-Tribune extended to cover the
period due from the Herald. Mr. and Mrs. MAIN will act as correspondents for The Times-Tribune
at Redding. People of the Redding community may renew their subscriptions or subscribe to The Times-Tribune at the

and had to give up farming. He will continue to keep his office open at Redding.
