WHAT IS SAID ABOUT US.
Stephen J. Cocke, Somerville, Tenn.,
writes: “ IlikeTm Wobi.d ami hope soon
to see yon make it a weekly. Think it worth
preserving. Would it not be well to page
the paper regularly and give an index at end
of the year to accommodate those who wish
to preserve and bind ? ”
William Stevens, Ridge Spring, S. C. says
“ I would not be without Tux Southern
World for five times its cost. I think every
farmer in the South should subscribe at
once. Long may it live and prosper.”
■*» W. H. Bunks, of Huntsville, Ala., writes
for 20 copies of our issue of October fifteenth
containing Hon. F. C. Furman’s address on
Intensive farming.
H. M. Barry, of Purdy, Tenn., writes: “ I
think The Southern World should be in
the hands of every Southern Farmer.”
M. H. Zellner, Ashville, Ala., says: "I
have for many years been very desirous for
some one to publish a number one agricul*
tural journal for one dollar. The Southern
World fills the bill and I regard you as a
great Public Benefactor."
Baltimore (Md.) Farm and Fireside: “ The
Southern World was one year old on Oct.
15th. It is as vigorous as a three year old. ”
Hendersou(Ky.) Reporter “It is the best
agricultural and family paper we receive. ”
St. Joseph (La.) Journal: This is an excel
lent journal. Send for it. ”
Scottsboro (Ala.) Herald: The Southern
World is a most welcome visitor to our sanc
tum. Its matter, editorial and selected, is
interesting and instructive.”
Columbus (Ohio.) Sunday Herald: One of
the best publications of the day, and certain
ly the best in the South, is The Southern
World issued at Atlanta, Georgia. It has
sixteen broad four column pages in every
number, and comes out twice a month. It is
devoted to fostering and encouraging the in
dustries of the South, and should certainly
be a welcome visitor alike to the farm, the
workshop and the home. The number be*
fore us of October 15th, contains not only
much general reading of an interesting char
acter, but has a mass of information in re*
gard to the industries, trade, prospects,
advantages and resources of the South, which
probably could not be found in any other
publication. It is strictly non-political, and
iis moral and social tone are both excellent.”
BOYS CO.VTES'mU J-'Olt FRIZES.
Early in the year, we made the following
