If the first man had suggested the
plan of each old subscriber getting,
or using his influence to get one new
one, and the second man using his
influence to get his. fellow business
men to advertise more extensively,
it would seem little more like busi-
ness, and it is my opinion that if the
editor was man worthy the name,
that Mr.. farmer would soon be satis-
fed with his own county paper, and
the second man would conclude that
his advertisement was in just the
right paper, and the editor would
have some spark Of encouragement
to try to edit a paper that it's patrons
would be proud of. The question is
frequently asked why our paper is not

an off hand answer, that its subscrip-
tion list isn't large enough to afford
it. Now while it is generally con-
ceeded that in the n. P. FARMER, we
have the best county paper in the
north west. If we will use our best
endeavors to double it's subscription
