THE FORSYTH COUNTY NEWS INSTALLS
NEW INTERTYPE COMPOSING MACHINE
A MARVEL OF MODERN INVENTIVE GENIUS—PRO
DUCES TYPE FOUR OR FIVE TIMES FASTER
THAN HAND COMPOSITION.
Today’s issue of thd Forsyth County news is “set” on anew composing
machine. This machine,, called the Intertype, is of the latest design, as used
by large newspapers throughout the world. It involves a large investment,
but will enable us to publish a larger and better newspaper, besides greatly
increasing our facilities for the composition of job printing. With this new
machine, the Forsyth County news equipment for setting news and job type
is equal in efficiency to that of the largest newspaper and job printing plants.
Such, plants in larger cities may have more of these machines than we need,
but none have better or more efficient equipment.
AN INVITATION TO VISIT A MODERN NEWSPAPER PLANT.
Many friends of the Forsyth County News have expressed an interest in
seeing the inner workings of a modern newspaper plant, and the Forsyth
County News will he glad to have visitors drop in to see our up-to-date modern
machinery.
The Forsyth County News believes that the printing business of this com
munity should be kept, at home-and believes that the best way to do this is
to meet competition upon a competitive basis-competitive not only as to
price, but also in the quality of the work produced. For this reason we are
anxious to show the public generally the extent of our facilities for yroducing
a real newspaper and first-grade commercial printing.
We have also just recently installed a modern up-to-date Six column
quarto Granston Newspaper Dress which cost $2400.00 in addition to the
$4300 00 Intertype just installed. We also have added several hundred dollars
worth of New'Type and other equipment, which places us in position to do
any job work or printing that any other newspaper or printing office can
do, and we assure you that we truly appreciate all patronage given us.

Farm Prices Touch
New Low In January
WASHINGTON, Jan. 31—(AP)—
Farm prices reached anew low point
at 51 per cent of the pre-war level
on January 15.
The bureau of agricultural econom
ics said today the decrease was re
corded despite price advances on 15
commodities from December 15 to Jan
uary 15. The index of farm prices a
year ago was 63 per cent of pre-war
showing a decrease of 12 per cent in
the last 12 months.
Leaders in the advance the last
month were flax, rye, apples, horses,
wheat and cotton. Prices of eggs
dropped more than seasonally, while
prices of hay, hogs, cattle and calves
fell to anew record low level in 23
years of statistical records kept by
the bureau.
Hog prices averaging $2.6S per 100
pounds in mid-January were 29 per
cent lower than on the same day ,2
months before. Wheat brought , ir
mers an average of 32.9 cents per
bushel on January 15, the highest
price recorded since last October.
However, the price was about 25 per
cent less than a year ago. Corn yield
ed farmers 19.1 cents per bushel in
Mid-January, or about 43 per cent less
than a year ago.
Cotton had an average price of 5 6
cents per pound at farms on January
15, or about 4 per cent higher than on
December 15, and was at about the
same level as a year ago. Kggs sold
at an average of 21.4 cents a dozen
on January 15, a drop of about 24 per
cent in one month, but 24 per cent
higher than on the same date in 1932.

THE NEWSPAPER
MAN
Bit of a priest and bit of a sailor,
Bit of a doctor and bit of a tailor;
Bit of a lawyer, and bit of a detective
Bit of a judge, for his work is cor
rective;
Cheering the living and soothing the
dying,
Risking all things, even dare-devil
flying;
True to his paper and true to his clan.
Just look his over, the newspaper man
Sleep! there are times that he’ll do
with a little,
Work till his nerves and his temper
are brittle;
Fire cannot daunt him, nor long hours
disturb him.
Gold cannot buy him and threats can
not curb him;
Highbrow or lowbrow, your own
speech he’ll hand you,
He'll go wherever another man can—
That is the way of the newspaper
man.
Surgeon, if urgent the need me, you'll
find him,
Ready to help, nor will dizziness blind
him;
He’ll give the ether and never once
falter.
Say the last rites like a priest at the
altar.
Gentle and kind with the weak and
weary,
Which is proved now and then when
his keen eye grows teary;
Facing all things in life's curious plan
That is the way of the newspaper
man.
One night a wee <■ may be rest fro n
his lab:) - ,
One night at home to be father and
neigh ■>>r'
Just a few hours for his own bit of
Leisure,
All the rest’s gazing at other men’s
pleasure.
All the rests toiling, and yet he re
joices,
All the world is, and that men do he
voices—
W T ho knows a calling more glorious
than
The day-by-day work of the newspaper
man.
