I "J, tqi4 To Onr Subscribers We have refrained from send ing statements to our subscribers, preferring that amounts come to us voluntarily. Conditions for the past several months have thrown a damper over the entire country We have realized this, and can understand why subscrip tions have not been normal as in the fall months, w hen the far mer sells his cotton, tobacco and peanuts. Our friends have ever been faithful to uk, and for that reason we appreciate their posi tion. But with very few excep tions, the farmers of Martin Cx>unty are not feeling the war atmosphere which has smothered so many throughout this goodly land. A dollar for the home pa per can he spared easily and it will mean much to. us with the cost of material advancing. Look at your label and see if you are in arrears. If there is an error notify us. and the same will be corrected with pleasure. During the war in Furope, we have endeavored to feive on tin 1 inside pages of THK KNTKIU'KISK the latest news from the warring nations. and*ih this way keep our subscribers in touch with those affairs most talked about To those who dt not take a daily paper, this war news is interest ing and there are .many of our , uiiu.. appi eciate th*> effort on our part to give them the news so important to us in far-oIT America. In other ways, we have tried to be a welcome guest it'. th homes of this people. Our ad columns are interesting, legal notices and hank statements form 'an irnpt rtant part of the paper's n ake-tip. and every citi wns of the ( 'ounty should patt'on- j iy.e his homi pupc for his own | good ,oid that of the County . If you ir«' not a subscriber, be-: come one. (I" you are in arrears. | mail or hnn;. 1 the amount, we will I appreciate it On Thanksgiving Day there should be lilting expressions for this blessed country where peace broods over the entire land. The American people have more to be thankful for than any nation on eartn. Jt would interest Martin County ~farmers to attend the Drainage Convention at Wilson next week. Thousands of acres of land right in our midst could be reclaimed if we knew, the principles of drainage. Post it on your wall that next year you will raise less cotton and more food stuff, and increase the number of stock in the pastures. The situation is in the hands of the farniers of the South. Will they be wise or foolish * The amendments were defeat ed by a good majority, and there is very little regret in the State. Probably the tax feature killed the whole thing, and a lack of education on the subject helped largely. They should not have been, submitted to the people without a thorough canvass of the State. Other causes for their defeat might be named, but they are dead and it is needless to dis cuss it. Off years in politics of ten bring surprises to'some folks, jr./* ' / . ' Much sympathy is felt for Farmville in the recent fire which destroyed oonaiderable property, the greatest ioss being: the L. G. Morrow Warehouse Co. Just at this time the loss wiM be felt most. Mr. Morrow was at one time on the market here and is remembered by many people. Another Veteran Gone Again taps have been sounded and another sen who fought in the immortal army of the South land. has? passed over the river to ! rest in the shade of the trees. !

This should cause-farmers everywhere to put land in crops that will save ferti lizer bills. Nothing will do this better than Crimson Clover. It is unques tionably one of the best soil-improv ers thai can be put in, and wherever it is grown, it gives largely increased crops of corn, cotton and tobacco. We have secured more liberal sup plies of Crimson Clover than was ex pected and will be able to sell at much more reasonable prices than was anticipated.
