SUBSCRIPTION PRICE WILL BE
$1.5O AFTER OCTOBER /.


On account of the continued in
crease in cost of producing The
News, we find that it will be nee
essary for us to raise the sub
scrlptlon price from 81 year to
$l.5Q. We have just made a con-
tract for a years supply of news
print paper and the price that we
had to pay would leave absolutely
no profit at the subscription price
of a dollar.
When the present price of the
paper was made cotton was sell
ing for 6 to 8 cents pound and
corn IS to IS cents a bushel. and
blank paper could be bought at a
price that left profit at one dol
lar a year.
The $1.5O rate goes into effect
on October l, 1919. All parties
who are paid in advance will not
be affected until the expiration Of
the time paid for, and all who wish
to do so may pay as far in adj
vance at the dollar rate between
this time and October / as they
may desire.

COUNTY AGENT NOTES.

Don't forget that you ought Il
do. something to make the Fair !
success.
The livestock meeting held at
Pelahatchie last Saturday wae
we'll attended, and interest was
splendid. Committees were ap-
pointed to get things in shape and
arrange for placing the bulls.
There is no greater work that can
be done just now than getting the
people interested in better live
stock, for that and improved soil
are the two things that our coun-
try needs most.
At the livestock meeting at Pc
lahatchie the question Of q law
preventing bulls from running on
the free range was brought up,
and was the unanimous voice Of
the citizens present to start q
movement at once that will induce
the next legislature to pass such
law. A petition or resolution
is now going over the county for
an expression on this question and
SO far not q single man has re-
fused to sign it. This would be
. splendid law, and should be
passed without hesitation. which
I'm sure will be.
/ was talking with q livestock
man from st. Louis today and he
minated that we need not expect
high prices for cattle and hogs
any more this year. Now If this
should be the case, there will be a
great injustice done to the pro-
Queer, as he has grown his hogs on
81 corn and if he is compelled ia
sell for SIS per hundred his loss
will be enormous. OF course we
all want the cost Of living to come
down, but so far the finished prod.
uct has not been reduced one
cent, but the things that the pro.
ducers have to sell, cotton, corn
meat, ETC., have been reduced con.
siderably. The only way for us ia
beat such q game as this is t.
grow what we have on our farms
and then live on it.
| hope that several community
or Beat Fairs will be held in the
county this fall. / am giving the
greater part of my time at pre-
sent to the details Of a County
Fair. We need q County Fair and
the only way to have it is to make
a start. / hope the entire citizen.
