This is the season of the year when
the farmers and members of their
families are completing their very &C
tive seasons work on the farm and,
as they have the long evenings of the
near approaching winter season for
social enjoyment and self improve
ment, there should now be provided
in the home some good and profitable
reading matter. Among this the To-
cal newspaper should have a place.
There is no better time now for those
to subscribe for THE REPUBLICAN
who have not yet done so. This APP
plies particularly to the farmers. A
variety of good wholesome reading
matter can be found in THE REPUB-
LIcAN's columns and very many times
information can be gained from
single item which, if acted upon,
would cause saving or gain of more
than the amount of the subscription
price for whole year.
