Advance In Paper.

The advance in the price Of printing
paper brings serious trouble to newspa-
per publishers, particularly such as is
sue at the ordinarily low rates OF SUBJ
scription. Papers sold on the streets
or in the news depots, at 80 much a
humber, can be readily adjusted in their
price to the changing rates Of expendi-
ture. But when there is subscription
for year. and at rate but little above
the lowest cost of publication, when such
,an advance comes as that which we now
have in paper, there is loss which not
al such publishers are able to bear
The strongest OF them must bend more
| OF less under the increased burden.
Some Of the daily papers have ad-
vmced their selline.price. They do this
without embarrassment. But weeklies
with settled subscription prices must
seek relief in some other way. What
they specially need is prompt payment
by their subscribers. They must have
ca,h to meet their weekly expenses, and
must depend for this. chiefly, on.the
timely payments of their patrons. With
such payments the stronger weekly pa
pefs, although suffering loss, may be
abIe to weather the storm that now as
sails them. We trust that the subscri-
befs of the Enterprise will attend to this
matter. and help rs through this trouble,
which is even harder to bear thanlthe pam
ic and hard times. We shall &c Obliged to
stop all papers upon which two dollars
and upwards are due, and send bills to
q Justice Of the Peace for collection.
Look at the date on your paper, and il
it is older than March 4, 1879, it means
that you should remit money to this OF
fice and have the date set forward to

takes of nothing but water and is said

strange to some people that he can In

is nothing wonderful about it. Water
has done great deal of fattening in
its time. A well salted OK on his way

gricultural statistics show that
in the last As years the production of
wheat and barley here has doubled
that of corn, cotton and tobacco more
than doubled; potatoes nearly doubled;
hay increased more than one-third and
oats about l4O,OOO,OOO bushels. The
vast increase in cereals is mainly due
to the rapid development of the Wes-
tern and Northwestern States. Dur
ing the present generation the corn
center has been transferred from the
South to the West, and the wheat CEN
ter from the Middle States to the Far
