Every week or ao some weekly pa per in this State drops into line with the aunouocement that after a certain date it will adopt the cash-in-advance system on its subscription list. The Oxford Ledger is the latest to make the change, stating that the new rule will go into t fleet February 15, thus giving subscribers plenty 01 time to pay up arrearages and to conform to the new ruk of thefulure. Probably every paper paper in the State could with ud vantage adopt some such rule, especially the weeklies and semi weeklit s. : Why should subscribers to these papprs expect to be 'Carried on the subscription books for years, while the editors are struggling to make their monthly accounts balance and, because of the heavy load of unpaid subscriptions, are not able to give their readers as good a paper as they woutd like.

Anconvill'!, N. n OUR CAITVASS FOR THE "MES SENGER AND INTELLI GENCER." BV MARY. Mr. Boylin: I wrote you that fatta r had given us some grod advice as to how to get subscribers, and it is a good plan for all the children to adopt, lie gave me the names of ten men who lived in Texas and other states who were born in Anson coun ty and who had moved away. Some of them went when they were boys; others during the past few years. Etclostd I am sending you the names of four of those" menna who I have heard from, and I am enclosing a check to cover their subscriptions. It has only bet n a week since I wrote, and four out of the ten have already subscribed. Father thinks they will all send in money for subscriptions, and I am writing to others. It is a mighty simple thing. 1 just tell them how nice it will be for them to get the paper twice a week for fifty-two weeks, and that it will be better than any letters that could be writ ten to them by friends because you have the advantage of getting news from' every - part of the county, and you do have lots of country news, yourf paper gets better and better every year. One of these days Wades boro will grow into 4 great, big cltyj and then you will hava a daily M. A I. It Is mighty easy to persuade any one wno was born in Anson County to take your paper. All you have to do is to get the address of these peo ple and write to them. Father said it was good practice to have me write otters and that he would furnish me all thepipr. envelopes and stamps if I would do the writing, for he said It was money well ppentttl would get good schooling In writing L'ttera. So I shall write heaps of letters be fore school is out. I shall write to alt the people who went away from this section, and shall write to some of the children of those who were born in this county, for surely the children will be interested-fn reading all about the county in which their mother and father were born and rais ed, even if they have never seen any part of the county. wonder IPany other girl is taking as much interest in the separator business as I am. Teacher sa s she does not see how 1 learn as good les sons as I do because she thinks I give all my thoughts to these subscrip tions, but I do not, Mr. Boylin. I only work on the separator contest Satur days. I write some letters Saturday night. Mother writes some of the ktters for me, and r tint Rachel, who U'k real good writer, helps me. You sel, Mr. Boylin, I write the same letter to each person. It is a short letter. This is what I say: My dear Mr. As you were born in Anson county Ik.fvow your will be gUd to get the county ;.W8, aud is the Messenger and luHligeLi" is the oldest p per in the couuty, I aiir"rklug for sub scribers for it.

With this one hun dred dollars we will have erected around our school swings, we saws merry-go-rounds or lightning whirl- era, as they ere sometimes called, slide ladders, Joggliug boards and other things that will help make tht chlldred very, very happy. All of us are anxious to have these play things. And we wane you to help us get them. Don't you know you were once a child and you wanted such things? Many grown people do not think children ought to have such things.? Some teachers do no, think children ought to have any recess. ome parents think the children can be stuffed full of book learning from sun-up to sun-down five days a wevk and many children's tea 1th is ruined by crowding book learning into them, il wish some grown-up people would come to our rescue and prevent the school authority from forcing us to have bo many studies and to teach us in a way the child is taught who U going through college. The major ity of us have to quit school at six teen years and only get the country school education. Yet we are com pelled to study in books that are only intended for those who can go to col lege and graduate at about twenty years of age. . Well, you are away off there, and may not be interested in all this, but I just wanted to write about my troubles to some one. One of these days I shall ask Mr. Boylin, of the M. & L, to come to our rescue and- see that we have competent sympa thising mends who will understand us and help us in the way we need beld.

Also, it seems if you don't use any fertilizer at all you can save thirty dollars per ton. This is what the ancient philosophers called reducing things to absur dity.

If you use four hundred pounoVpeiC-flN sauing is Forty Cents Per Acre. If you are planting for a bale per acre, 40 cents is about One-Half of One Per Cent on the value of the bale. If you get a fertilizer wrong wrong only by a half of one per cent, the saving is lost. It is not possible for any farm hand to measure up anything within half of one per cent. This requires skilled and trained operatives. It is not possible for any farm hand to mix up the ingredients so that every ounce will be like every other ounce. This requires, spe cial machinery. It is not possible for any planter to be sure of a correct and uniform fertilizer if it is mixed by hand. This requires the guarantee of a responsible fer tilizer manufacturer who maintains his brands . and is proud of them. - Forty cents saving on eertainly uncertain fertilizer, or half of one per cent on the result, is a certain way to risk ten per cent.
