The Country Weekly The Washington Reporter and The Early County News, both standard weekly Georgia news papers have raised their subscrip tion rates fromsl to $1.50 a year. The action is 1 being generally commended by the state press and by the subscribers of the pa pers. The example thus set should, and we believe will, be followed by the majority of weekly newspapers in Georgia. One dollar, especially in these times of high cost of material, is too little for the average Georgia weekly. The field of a country weekly is naturally restricted, yet it is expected to cover that field in the minutest news details. Circulation is naturally restricted yet in the nature of things it costs almost as much to collect the news for and present it to this circulation as to a subscrip tion list ten times the size. There is a fixed charge on the standard country weekly so ex acting that the manner in which the country editor meets it out of asl circulation price is incom prehensible. It must be remem bered that the price received for advertising, and the country edi tor must depend upon advertis ing for upkeep and profit, is reg ulated by circulation. He has a restricted circulation, he cannot figure a profit at $1 per year. All this is not to reckon with the other services performed for the community, services upon which in their nature it is impos sible to put a price. The coun try editor is generally the chief, or one of the chief, developmen tal influences of the county. He fights its battles along the lines of local issues and crystallizes healthy local civic sentiment. He is called upon to perform innu merable services for which he receives little and sometimes nothing. A tariff of $1.50 is small enough to cover his overhead charges and enable him to make both ends meet. The Constitu tion hopes it will soon be made the uniform price throughout Georgia.—Atlanta Constitution. CASTOR IA for Infants and Children.

She had nasal catarrh very badly, and was cured by Peruna. We will let her tell her own story. Mrs. Victoria M. Pickel, 130 E. Mound Street, Columbus, Ohio, writes: “I have been using Peruna for catarrh, having had a very aggra vated case, so bad that it clogged the nasal organs. When I did get the nasal organs opened, the mucus would drop into my throat and make me very sick. “A friend advised me to take Peruna, and after using four bot tles I was cured. I have no trouble now, and am happy to say that I am enjoying the best of health and attending to my lodge duties, being a member of the Rebecca Lodge of Odd Fellows. “I would recommend Peruna to those suffering with the same obnoxious trouble.” MAY RAISE MONEY FOR FARM DEMONSTRATOR There is a movement on foot to raise enough private subscrip tion to pay for the services for a farm demonstrator in Butts county the present year. Several well known and in fluential citizens have stated they would contribute towards the support of the work. With what the government pays, it will take about SSOO raised by individual subscription to pay for a farm demonstrator. Now that the work is well established in this county it should not be allowed to lapse, is the * iew taken by a good many farmers. Those desiring to contribute to this fund may send their names with the amount to Mr. C. S. Maddox, County School Super intendent. If one hundred citi zens will give $5.00 each the services of a farm agent can be secured and this important work can be continued for another year. Many counties raise the money to pay for a farm demonstration agent by private subscription.
