What the Country Papers Do

Just now there is considerable
said about the cheapness OF the large
city newspapers as compared with
the country papers. The idea thai
the city weeklies are cheaper aud
better than the country papers be-
cause they give more columns OF
reading for the money is a iallacy.
These great newspapers are well
enough in their place, but do they
| I'll tho place of the country paper |!
Do the city papers ever give yon
any home newsi Never. Do they
ever say anything in regard to our
county! Never DO they ever pub
lish tho proceedings OF your County
Board Of Supervisors, or contain
notices of your schools, churches.
meetings, improvements and hun
lrcds of other matters Of local inter
est which your local paper pub
ishes9 Not an item. Do they ever
say word calculated to draw atten
ton to your county and its numer'
ous thriving towns, and aii IN their
progress and euteFplise9 Not a
word, And yet there are men who
take such contracted views Of this
matter that unless they get as many
square inches of reading matter in
their home paper they think they
are no. getting their mon Us worth.

The last years Of his life were passed
