that this is the proper season for
advertising. Country people are
thinking of their visit to our little
city this fall, and what, and of whom
they will purchase. The AMERICAN

throughout Madison and the ad
Joining counties, and goes directly
to the home of nearly every cotton
planter within thirty ave miles of

sufficient.
