AN INCREASE IN
SUBSCRIPTION
Unusual Cost of Printpaper
Makes the Change
Necessary.
After having given the matter
due consideration, and finding no
relief in sight, The Montgomery
Monitor, along with practically
every weekly paper in Georgia,
will on Nov. 15th raise its sub
scription price to $1.50 per year.
Any man who has kept abreast
of the times understands that
newspaper has advanced in cost
from 300 to 500 per cent, in the
past year, making it impossible
to issue a paper at the price of a
dollar a year.
Therefore, from Nov. 15, and
until the situation is relieved, the
following subscription rates will
obtain: One year, $1.50 in ad
vance; six months, 75 cents in
advance; three months 40 cents
in advance.
In order to get the benefit of
the present price it is necessary
to renew at once; no subscriber
will be carried for a dollar a year
after Nov. 15th. If you appreci
ate the work of the county paper,
at least call in and pay what you
owe, and renew if possible. Show
your county pride by co-operating
with the county paper. —Oct. 12.
Southern Farmers
Cheat Themselves.
According to the Savannah
Press there recently sailed from
the Savannah harbor for Scandi
navian ports seven vessels loaded
with cottonseed cake for cattle
feed, total value of this over a
million dollars. It is a fine thing
to have a product that other
countries want, and it is equally
good to sell it to them when we
don’t need it. But our farmers
are surely cheating themselves
when they sell such large quanti
ties of cottonseed meal to foreign
*
countries.
If these countries 4,000 miles
away can buy the cottonseed
meal, and pay heavy freight rates,
how much more valuable that
same product must be to us! We
are sleeping on our rights by
shipping such large quantities of
this product abroad. We don’t
blame the people in the foreign
countries who buy it, but we
blame our people for not using
more of it than they do. The
time is not yet ripe when the
South can use to. advantage all of
its cottonseed meal, but that day
will come. Certainly we should
use more right now. There is no
other feed selling as cheaply as
this same cottonseed meal on the
basis of protein content. Let’s
wake up and think along this
line. — Southern Farming.

One dollar isn’t much to con
tribute to the national democratic
campaign fund, but if every
democrat in Georgia will con
tribute this amount it will make
a fine showing for democratic
