unprecedentedly high cost of paper
and Of all other material entering
into the production Of newspaper
leaves a very narrow margin Of profit

publish a semi-weekly of the size and
quality Of the Watchman and South
ron at the low subscription price Of
$3.50 year only by the hearty sup
port Of it's subscribers and the prompt
payment Of subscription. Owing to the
increasing cost Of producing the paper

to either reduce the size Of the paper,
increase the subscription price or to
reduce the number of issues to one. a
week. If Subscribers will pay prompt
ly SO that there is no loss on bad ac-
counts the task Of the publishers will
be lightened. We ask that each and
