He told his hearers that there
is a million dollars worth of
nitrogen over every acre of land

this vast sum almost at will by

talk was on soil building as the

The North Penn Review, hailing
from North Wales, Montgomery
county, is one of Pennsylvania s
newest papers, and that it has made
good in the first month of its ex-
istence is apparent at glance. Nor
man B. Nuss is publisher and pro-
prietor; Charles A. Smedley, editor,
and Chester w. Knipe circulation
manager. We should judge that
all three take a pretty active hand
in its operation, because to give all
the credit to one of them would be
more than he would really deserve.
