CASH SUBSCRIPTION PAPERS.
Charlotte Observer.
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. A man who cannot pay
promptly from one dollar to two dol
lars a:;d a half a year for a paper has
no business taking it. He would
think it mighty bard if he had to dis
pose of bis dry goods or his groceries,
supposing him a merchant, or his
country produce, supposing him a
farmer, in one-dollar cr two dollar

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:

hundred dollars. With this one hun
dred dollars we will have erected
around our school swings, we saws

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

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

us and help us in the way we need

Some people say they can buy fertilizer ingredients
and mix them at home and save two big round . dollars
per ton. 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. "
Any cotton plante in this countuy would quickly
recognize the absurdity of doing without fertilizer. A
little later, you will, after some coaxing, just as 6urely
"TcCCnizethe absurd in the two dollar saving. Two
dollars per tdn-isten cents per hundred. 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.
