Notice To Subscribers

A law Of Congress forbids sending
a newspaper thru the mail which is
owed Tor a longer time than one year
unless a 1c stamp is on each paper.
AS a consequence publishers cannot
afford to send a paper at the extra
cost, and that accounts for some fail
ing to get their paper.
If all subscribers would examine
their time label aud send amounts
when bill is presented much incon-
venience would be avoided and friend
ship last longer. The Penns Grove
RECORDS are sent thru the mail at
considerable expense and a remit
tance by the same way should not
be too much to ask.
Prompt payments are expected by
all who work for others. Publishers
appreciate the same.

THE SOLDIER AND THE MINER.

the SOLDIER ANU ne MtNGn.
(By Elias burt.)
We speak Of the horrors Of the war
across the sea;
The truth of those horrors in our
minds can never be.
We look at the miners and there we
plainly see
That from their horrible bondage they
never can be free.
The result Of this foreign trouble we
may not live to see,
But do you think this labor. trouble
really ought to be?
So let's get together, brother. and all
labor unite, o.
And stick to these miners throughout
the day and night.
The soldier for his country. with his
Il life he has fought:
The miner for his babies. with his life
their bread he bought. a.
The soldier knows his fighting means
for his country's wealth.
The miner knows his lighting means
either life or death.
We know very little why the foreign
soldiers are striving.
We know very we'll why the Ohio
miners are starving.
So who is right or wrong in this war
we cannot say,
But 1t seems as though the miners
union is surely here to stay.

DANGER IN CROSSING BREEDS
Best Results Are Attained by Stick.
ing to One ereed-Let Man Of
Leisure Do Experimenting.

All practical hog growers agree
that crossing the breeds is a danger.
Gus practice, and that the best results
are attained by sticking to one
breed.
Still. some men are clinging to the
idea that 1t is possible to incorporate
all the good qualities Of the different
breeds into close-bred animal.
1t is a disastrous belief IL put into
practice. There may be certain in.
stances when crossing will give good
results. as in the production Of pig
pork.
The man who is experimenting with
the various breeds and crosses, in
search Of something better than has
yet been found, may have . mission,
but such line Of investigation Is not
practical for the man who must de.
pend upon the return from his swine.
feeding for his farm profits.
He is on safer ground II he confines
his taste and skill to improving one
we'll established breed and leaves the
experimenting to the man Of leisure
and means.
