The sentiment of Roseberry peo-
pie, as expressed by our Roseberrv
correspondent last week in advo-
eating flour mill for the valley,
is the proper thing. While Rose
berry would like to see a flour mill
erected at that place, the people
there are unselfish enough to glad
ly welcome one to any part of the
valley. This is the right spirit
to have; think of the whole valleys
welfare first, and your own partic-
ular portion of it afterwards. If
all the people of the valley pull to-
gether for the valleys good they
can accomplish much, while pull
ing by sections they cannot do so
well, or will be slower in attaining
the objects sought. Be united, for
"In unity there is strength"

DON'T READ THE RUBBISH.

The following from the Idaho
Mountaineer expresses our senti-
ments exactly:
"Read all the ads in this paper,
except the "slop ads" on the patent
pages. Don't waste any time on
them. If we had our way about it
they woundn't be there at ALL"
The Meadows Eagle views the
matter in similar light, as wit
ness the following from recent
issue:
''The Eagle, from necessity, uses
a patent inside and has no control
of the advertising contained there
in. Let it be distinctly understood
that we recommend none of the
nostrums so advertised"
We shall, as soon as circum-
stances justify the change, dispense
with the patent insides. We are
careful to avoid all Objectionable
advertising matter in our home
printed pages and have refused all
such advertising. We propose
making changes from time to time
for the betterment of the ADVOCATE,
but, like most country newspapers,
we have to go slow at first.
