HKKALIK" With this issue The Herald reBUtHcH its baptismal name -the nume Hdopterl when the begun publication tienr- |y fifty yearn ng i- nnd “The Herald and Advertisi r“ ns n newspaper patro nymic puHRi s into history. The Herald was established by the late ,1. A. Welch in 1 MtJO. Afterwards the late ,1. (\ Woollen acquired an in terest in the paper, and fur many years the publishing firm was known as Wont ten & Welch. Upon the death of these veteran newspaper men The Horn'd passed into control of the Wooden es tate and ('apt. A. B. Cates, the latter purchasing the interest held by the Welch estate. Capl. Cates became < d itor of the paper, and it remained un der his management until September, lkm*, when it was consolidated with the Coweta Advertiser, the Rood will and outfits of both newspapers going into the liands of a stock company which had been organized for the purpose of perfecting the consolidation referred to. Willi th(‘ consolidation the name of the paper was changed, and from that date until the present time—a period of twenty-eight years and live months it has been known as “The Herald and Advertiser." For a like period (witli the exception of a single year) it has remained under the sunn* editorial man agement. A few weeks ago tentative proposi tions passed between the owners of The Herald and Advertiser and the Newnan News looking to a merger of the two papers. The subsequent nego tiations, which were conducted in a most amicable spirit, resulted in an agreement by the terms of which the name and good will of the Newnan News was on Jan. 1H formally trans ferred to the Newnan Publishing Co., owner of The Herald and Advertiser, and the mini of Too Herald and Ad- vertiser was changed to “The New nan 11 raid ” 1 lie Newnan News sus port nnd we promise in return a news- j paper that will be a credit to Newnan 1 and Cowet a county. A newspaper is just as good as the town in which it is printi d will make it, and no better. Seneia Enterprise-Gazette: "New- j rum now bas only one paper I lu ll e raid and Advertiser and th • N tv- nan News were merged last, wi ek, and in future it will ho known as The New nan Herald. This was a wise step i n the pari of the owners of those paperi, Our good friend, James K. Brown, will continue ns editor of The Herald and will give Newnan a paper .proud of. he will he llo is always on the alert for anything that will benefit Newnan nnd Coweta e iun’y. ’’ Final Appeal For Continuance ol Farm Demonstration Work. The question as to whether Coweta county will employ a farmdemonstrauon agent for I'd 15 is yet unsettled. The general sentiment seems to be heartily in favor of keeping up the work, but the subscript.ons made up to the pres ent time do not sustain the sentiment. If Coweta cannot settle the question right away for herself, it will soon lie (•tiled for her. The Department of Agriculture is holding $550 for this county, provided an equal amount is put up. It the people are not willing to comply with this requirement the money will go to some other county that is willing. Prof. Campbell, State Agent, in structed me to notify him by Jan. 20 of the action taken by the people of Cow eta, so he can send a demonstration ngent and the money elsewhere at once, it Coweta doesn't do her part. 1 am asking him to extend the time one week, and I hope he will be considerate enough to do so. Coweta should continue the work this year, because if the provisions of the Smith-Lever law are complied with by the coming Legislature she will not have to subscribe as much to continue the work in the future as she has done in the past. Under the operations of this law the local support will grow less each year, until Federal and State aid together supply the whole amount. This will apply only to counties in which the work has been carried on for two successive years prior to the time the law goes into effect in Georgia. Therefore, if Coweta fails to support the work this year she denies herself the possibility of securing further appro priations from the Government in fu- I ture. The county stands in great need of an agent j .at now to help in controlling the scourge of hog cholera recently brought m with a shipment of hogs | from Tennessee. This throat* ns to , n- j tail a heavy loss upon the farmers of I iho county, all because of the laxity ef ' ilia laws which permit such careless shipping. Of course, we alone ca-’t pended public it- ti with its last issue. ! reniedj these lax laws, hut by unites. ‘ effort we cun fortify ourselves against li nlfords us pleasure to testify that the most important point considered throughout the negotiations indeed, ! wo may say it was a controlling inllu- cnce was a mutual desire on the pirt j of the owners of the two properties, respectively, to unite their interests in ' a joint enterprise for the promotion of one good newspaper in the town. A | practical demonstration of this spirit !•• found in the fact that the former owners of the Newnan News are now part own rsof The Herald one happy family, you might say, and all np>ally interested in furnishing Newnan and Coweta county a live, up-to date newspaper. Tins, in hn*\ is a history of The Newnan 11, raid up to the present time. As to the future, we pledge our best efforts to a fulfillment of the hopes and good wishes with which we have been showered since the consolidation of the | two papers The purpose of the merger was not to i cur,> a monopoly of the newspaper field, in th<> sense that mo nopoly is generally underatoo 1 an cried. Although with a subscription ] Potts $2 50, list considerably augmented, there will be no increase in advertising rites, nor is it the present intention of th pub lishers to advance the subscription price. Tin' policy of the paper shall he one of fairness t i ad interests and c-n- servative in all things their evil • ffecis if wo have someon-* to take the iuuiutive. A good demonstra- uon agent will do tins, in helping to s’amp out li 1 g cholera, as well as ill all other movcoi'nts for the b t torment of agricultural conditions in the county. 1 need net take more • p.lOe to speak of tlu* need “i iliis work. 1 think Hie pet pie are already .awake to its im portance, as the list of subscriptions given lodow will sli iw.
