To Our Subscribers
We have mailed hills to all our subscribers who are
in arrears. The amounts due by each individual are
small but when taken together they amount to a great
deal to us. I’lease bear this in mind.
We have the following propositions to submit:
Ist. If you are not prepared to PAY US, call in to
see ns about it anyway.
2nd. If you have any farm produce to spare and
can’t get up the cash come to see us about the farm pro
duce we want to keep you on our list IF YOU ARE
SATISFIED.
Don’t read the paper two or three years and then say
you didn’t subscribe for it and don’t owe it, and then tell
us to take your name off the list because we ask you to
pay up.
What we an after is to get a list of live subscribers
on our hooks who are interested in our town and county
and can take some interest in their home paper.
We had rather have 1000 LIVE subscribers than any
number of DEAD ones.
We are the official County organ for the best little coun
ty in the State of Georgia. Our subscription is only ONE
DOLLAR per year, which we believe is the minimum
price for any Georgia Weekly. Every loyal citizen of the
City of Cochran and Bleckley county should he willing to
co-operate with their home paper for the industrial, moral
and civic welfare of this community. PAY UP YOUR
SUBSCRIPTION, Giveusamoral support, and occasion
ally, if you can conscientously do so, an encouraging word
and we will do our best to give you a good clean paper.
But hear in mind that the encouragement we need
most just now is that “LITTLE DOLLAR” you owe us,
or its equivalent.

corn growers of tht great possibility
of the future output of our corn
lands, it is an evident fact that his
effort is bearing fruit and that

county farmers to produce.
New and valuable ideas are de
veloping gradually in different sec
tions of our county. One of these
good moves is being developed by
II J. Abney, wdio planted several
acres in field peas, several acres in
.Spanish peanuts and several acres
in the running variety of peanuts
30 head of hogs have already been
fed a month on his field peas and
are now on his Spanish peas o f
which he has enough to carry them
until his spreading peas are ready.
11 is hogs, although only on his field
peas one month, some of them are
fat enough for pork now. If no
disease enters his herd and he does
not kill any of them his hogs will
present a pretty show in sixty days.
