Rules For Correspondents.

Here are ten rules for countr,
correspondents. They were pre-
pared by an experienced news
paper man. Cut them out ant
keep them. Then try to max,
your next letter to the FULTON
COUNTY NEWS conform with al
of the rules:
l. Do not abbreviate. Do no
write Mr.. & Mrs., but Mr.. ant
Mrs. not Mon. or Sat. but Mon.
day or Saturday,
2. Leave space between items
for correction or additions.
3. Give both initials. Write
G. H. Sipes instead of Mr.. Sipes
or Mr.. G. Sipes.
A. Write important subjects
fully. Do not dismiss the death
of a well known pioneer in hall
a dozen words, but write some
thing of interest concerning him.
If suicide or murder give all the
details you can get.
5. Have verbs agree with SUBJ
jects. Don't say Mr.. and Mrs.
B. was. but Mr.. and Mrs. B.
were. Mr.. and Mrs. B. may be
one scripturally. But they are
two dramatically.
6. Don t use nicknames. Use
James Peck instead of Jim Peck,
Edward instead of Ed.
7. Give the time in an item.
Mr.. Harris was in Everett, the
house burned down, are incom-
plete. Tell when things happen
ed.
8. Divide words correctly.
Don't divide such words as
enough, enough.
9. Don't send articles reflect
ting upon the character of indi-
viduals or firms. The newspa-
per is not looking for libel suits;
neither does it care to right your
personal wrongs.
10. Write your name and town
at top of page. Last but most
important rule of all. 1t is most
essential that the newspaper
know from whom the news is
received and from what place.
Important suggestion, though
not a rule: Carefully look over
your news after it is published
and note what changes had to be
made.
While the ten rules given above
are important as relating to
written news, yet there is one
rule supersedes them all-Tele-
phone really important news at
once.

Farm Names.

A native of the Big Cove, who
for several years, has resided
elsewhere, was much interested
in an article which appeared in
the NEWS recently suggesting
that farmers have specific names
for their farms, and makes the
following suggestions. If we
were to mention his name, it
would add weight to the article,
but ne is one of those modest
men who shrinks from the
thought of seeing his name in
print. Here's an abstract of his
letter: Il read in last weeks s
NEWS a good suggestion = that
farmers name their farms, and
have letterheads and envelopes
printed, describing their pro-
ducts. That's businessl What
would merchants, manufactur-
ers, dairymen, doctors, lawyers
even railroads s-do, if they did
not advertise? AS | am entirely
familiar with the topography of
the farms in the McConnellsburg
valley, | suggest the following
names, beginning with S. A.
Nesbit's farm in Tod township.
| will not give the names of the
owners of the farms; the names
will, perhaps, suggest that: Point
View, County Capital, Sun Brook.
Fair View, Hill Crest, Grand
View, Homestead, Spring Mead
ow, Valley Forge, Orchard, Sun
set, Shady Side, Meadow Brook,
Garden Heights, etc."

It Must Be True
Colfax Readers Mus Come to That
Conclusion.

Conclusion.
1t is not the telling of single case
in Colfax, but a number of citizens
testify. Endorsement by people you
know bears the stamp of truth. The
following is one of the public state.
ments made in this locality about Daon
Kidney Pills:
w. liver, blacksmith, Colfax, says:
Whenever my kidneys go wrong,
take Doan's Kidney Pills and they are
the only thing that ever does me any
good. sometimes get a kink in my
back, obliging me to go about for a
time all bent over. My kidneys often
become, irregular in action. Shoeing
horses Is not the best thing for the kid
neys anyway. / take Doan's Kidney
Pills for a few days and the trouble
disappears and my back feels as strong
rs ever. always have a good word
for Doan's Kidney Pills and recon-
mend them whenever i hear anyone
complaining of kidney disorders.
Price Soc, at all dealers. Don't simp-
" ask for kidney remedy-get Doan's
Kidney Pills = the same that Mr.
w. liver recommends. Foster Milburn
