WHY THE PRICE WAS RAISED.
LaOrosae (Wash.) Clipper.
A friend, in n jocular mood, asked us
give our reasons for raising the sub
scription price of Tho Clipper from $1.50
$2. Hero are a few of them:
Four years ago when wo raised the
price from $1 to $1.60 we could buy
newsprint at 4 cente a pound. The other
day, in Bpite of tho fact that wo have
enough on hand to run us for six months
or more, wo bought a future order at
13 cents a pound. Wo must pay spot
cash, and store the stock until we need
it in order to protect ourselves against
another rnlse in tho market that is sure
to come bofore our old Btock is exhausted.
If we waited until we needed more news
print the chances are we would pay 16
cents, or more. If you don't believe the
country editor is getting his’n theBO
dnyB, wo will sell you The Clipper and
let you gather a little H. C. L. experience
of your own.
Four years ago we “hired” printers
for $18 and $20 a week. Today they
are “Employed” at $32 a week.
Four years ago the wife bought her
shoes for $4 and $6 n pnlr, but today
she pays from $12.60 to $16—when she
buys ’em.
Four years ago we bought our stogies
for a nickel. Today they cost a dime,
and the aroma is just os offensive to the
nostrils as ever.
Four years ago Lizzie was fed per
fectly good gas at 16 cents per. Today
the price has gone up and the quality
gone down until now we pay 30 cents
q gallon, (when we enn get it,) and the
aroma is a cross between a disguested
polecat and an overdose of nssafoetida.
Four years ago we could buy a loaf
of bread for a nickel. Today wo'buy a
smallor loaf for 11 cents.
Four years ago Uncle Sam let __
keep what we had left after the bills
were paid. Today be helps himself to
part of the balance to help pay for put
ting the kaiser in cold storage.
Four yearB ago we could buy a re
spectable meal for 35 cents. Today all
you get for that sum is a baleful glare
from the waiter. If you want a full
meal leave your jewelry with the cashier
as security. Maybe you can redeem it
after you get your check and maybe not.
Chances are, not.
Four years ago we could get our locks
trimmed for a quarter. .Today they are
twice as thin, hut the price is twice ns
much.
Four years ago we paid our State,
county, school, and other taxes as a mat
ter of course. Today it is a matter of
curse—an operation in which the patient
is relieved of everything but his citizen
ship.
Four years ago we saw the movies for
dime. Today they are a quarter on
bargain day.
Four years ago a dollar frequently got
warn in our pockets. Today it travels
on a no-stop schedule. It doesn’t ever
Unger long enough with us to take-water.
We are not even a flag station on that
dollar’s route.
Four years ago we bought eggs for
two-bite a dozen. Last winter we had
to send The CUpper over eight months
to buy the result of one day’s toil for
twelve hens.
Four years ago our plant had a value
of $6,000. Todagt the replacement value
would be double that amount if we had
the money.
Four years ago “drives” were f prac-
tically unknown.: During the last fow
years we have known nothing else.
Four years ago one could accumulate
the "morning-after” effects for a few
centB. Today you. have to learn the se
cret code and carry a magnifying glass
to acquire a BuspieiouB smell on your
breath. The water wagon is our favorite
vehicle, as it costs less to travel that way
than any other.
There are other reasons too numerous
to mention, and we told our friend so.
He said he would wait until the price
went up, as he didn’t have the heart to
pay less than $2.50.
USE YOUR BANK,
Progressive Farmer,
In these progressive tlmos there aro
not many farmers who do not mnko some
uso of tho bank. But It 1b the excep
tional and usually tho most successful
farmer who mnkqs tho fullest .jiso of it.
All farm business, except minor matters
where small change only is neodod,' should
bo handled through the banks; but it
is not enough just to know that our can
celed chocks are receipts for all our blllB,
and that wo aro accumulating a surplus
which 1b safely deposited in the bank.
One of the great troubles with Southern
agriculture Is that most of our farm oper
ations have been unflnanced. Wo Should
make uso of the bank to borrow money
juBt as often as borrowed money can bo
made to 'yiold a profit to tho farm. If
by borrowing money at Am 8 per cent,
we can make it return 10 per cent, or
more on the investment, it is thon ft mis-
tajeo not to borrow the amount needed.
A gfeat many farmers have a horror
of going in debt, but it is a mistake to
strugglo along with meager equipment,
lack of fertilizer, lack of good seed or
lack of good breeding stock rather than
borrow. It takes money to moke money
on the farm aa well as in other lines of
business. The farmer who can grow
crops of livestock and market them at
a profit need have no hesitancy in going
to a banker and explaining to him that
he wants money to enlarge his business.
He need have no fear that the banker
will not do his best to make the loan.'
The bank is a business house. The bank
er appreciates a good customer just as
does the merchant.
Let us learn to use money on the farm
It is one of the best “hired men” we
can employ.

UPSHAW NOT AN ACCIDENT.
W. D. UpBhaw is again winner. Thoro
are those-who apparently were of, the
opinion that his election to CongrOBB two
yearB ago was on accident, and they wore
eager to get the job away from him.
Denying him tho accustomed second term
without a fight, two Candidates plunged
in to beat him for renomination, Up
shaw’s victory was comploto. Ho car
ried four counties out of five, including
his own county of Fulton. The victory
probably meanB that he will bo considered
more seriously as a political' factor in
future.—Moultrie Observer.
Congressman Upshaw never again will
be called an accident. His life has not
been an accident; it has been a wonderful
mastery of hie own ability to overcome
an accident which nearly cost him his
life and made a permanent invalid of
him. Many people have called him an
extremist in reform movements. Ho cer
tainly has been an extremist in the noble
matter of reforming a life that had been
wrecked. And he has reformed it to a
high degree of Christian service for hu
manity. All honor to Congressman Up
shaw, the ‘ ‘ Georgia cyclone ’ ’ on crutches.

FLANDERS FIELDS IN BLOOM
AGAIN.
Devastated France is now a fertile ag
ricultural country, rich with red clover
and alfalfa. German shells did the plow
ing and German poison gas fertilized
the soil. Tho .'great need of France to
day is labor-saving devices which can bo
wielded by the old men and boys, who
are the only farmers left.
T-his was the report brought back from
France by Hugh Fullerton, of the Long
Island Agricultural Experiment Station,
on behalf of the American Committee for
Devastated France, of which Miss Anne
Morgan is the head. Mr. Fullerton dis
cussed the needs of France at a meeting
at the headquarters of the committee.
“The French agriculturists believed
that the devastated areas would never
again be productive,” he said. “I was
over two months ago convinced that this
was not true, because I had experience
in tearing up Long Island soil with dy
namite and had found the subsoil fertile.
It is an old axiom-of agriuclture that the
cubsoil cannot be productive, and the
French government, (acting on this
premise) had condemned large portions
of what used to be the most productive
areas of France.
‘ In company with Miss Morgan and
representatives of the French government,
I visited one of the worst hits of th*
Iisne war zone. It was ‘Red Monkey
plateau,’ which was taken and retaken
eighteen times. Not a trace of cellar
wall remains to tell of its villages, and
the soil was overturned to the depth of
two to five feet.
“At the foot of the hill the French
experts were still maintaining that noth
ing could grow there. When we. reached
the top we found ourselves wading knee
deep through the richest red clover I
have ever seen. The leaves were as big
as silver dollars. • Alfalfa covered the
deepest holes.
“I will say this for the French: They
are prompt to admit their error. Within
two days the order condemning this ter
ritory was revoked. Four thousand peo
ple returned to their old homes in one
“It appears that the plowing done by
the shells brought to the surface the deep
soil which contains valuable materials of
which the top soil, used for generations,
had been depleted. Riding through
France one can trace the lines of toe
trenches, now filled in and planted, by
the richer, darker green of the wheat
growing in the deep plowed soil.

reed in this country is more active brains.
A little more activity in the muscle*
would be infinitely better.
For
Torpid
Liver
"Black-Draught Is. in
my opinion, the nest liver
medicine on the market," ,
states Mrs. R. H. White- 1
side,of Keota.Okta. She i
continues: “I had a pain
in my chest after eating-
tight, uncomfortable feel- i
ing—and this was very ;
disagreeable and brought
on headache. 1 was con- j
stipated and knew it was
indigestion and inactive
liver. 1 began the use of
Black-Draught, night and
morning, and It sure is
splendid and certainly
©ves relief.”
