Cost him Jhcluding loss of time not less than y$5.00. The date of said meeting was published in the Sentinel but he was not a subscriber. Lost enough on that one occasion to pay for the Sentinel five years. It’s not 30 much a question wheths • you can u- fford to take the paper us whether you can afford to do without it- DOUGLAS COUNTY FULMERS The most important business in Douglas County, is farming and today perhaps the most critical period in the history of this great industry. It is easy to give advice and every one including the 2 by 4 politician iis rlways handing that commodity out freely to the'farmer- Last year, the farmer did his best and tried to grow crops—it wa a an expensive effort and we all know he made a signal failure. Many this year are hardly able financially to grow a crop under favorable condit ions, and we know that with the late ness of the season and the boll wee vil menace that this season is going to be a most critical one. The farmer may need advice if It Id the right sort he should have it Bishop Candler’s article on educat ion in last Stinday’s Journal is one of the greatest contributions we have seen fop fi long time. He justly criticises the leading educational institutions for drifting from cultural education to the so caked practical. The, tenderecy in this diriction is alarming and if it keeps going on, in a few more year s we will not have Khools but work shops.
