FARMERS SHOULD
USE THE PAPERS

The Record-Advertiser, published
at Houston, Va, is urging its rural
subscribers to do just what we should
like our farmers to dO-give us their
news from their farms-to make our
paper a sort OF a clearing house Of
ideas for the farmers of this vicinity.
Farmers do not use their local pa
pers enough, and yet the papers afford
the quickest and best way to build
up their farms and communities. They
do not use the papers because, per
hapS, many of them feel they cannot
use flow of eloquencc; others un-
derestimate the effectivness and value
Of publicity, and still others are mere
ly indifferent or too cngrossed with
heir own affairs.
Every farmer should tell his local
papers about his successes on the
tarm and how they were achieved.
We are always glad to get farming
story for it enables us to spread the
news OF progress in our vicinity. And
no one needs flow of eloquence to
tell of his success. The facts of farm
ing success are eloquent in themselv-
IS. so write us. The editor can re-
orange the wording if such need be
done.
No farmer should be too indifferent
IT too engrossed in his own work ia
'aSS good idea along to his fellow
nan, thus giving them the benefit OF
his experiences. Such articles al
ways are an inspiration to others. We
well know the true and lasting adj
Nanccment OF our community can
come in no other way than through
ne upbuilding OF our farms, and So
is not political or social news that
we want any more than it is news
from the farms.
