Subscription, $1.50 per year
in advance
Prof. }. W. Marion, Supt. of
Cleveland High School, informs us
if any farmer wishes to have his
seed corn tested, he can do so by
bringing it to the school btn'ldinr
and it will be done free. The far¬
mers should take advantage of this
opportunity.
Sunday, Feb, 26 is regular
preaching day at the Methodist
Church, but Bro. Greenway has
set this day to preach to the child
ren and he requests us to impress
upon the parents to brihg their
children out that day. We sug¬
gest that you rise a little earlier so
you can get them there in time for
Sunday School.
The Sunday Schools in Cleve¬
land are picking up wonderfully.
New ones comes in every Sunday
There are several more who are ex¬
pected to come in Sunday. You
can’t keep a good town down.
Some people tell us that if we
•will give them The Courier for
$1.00 they will subscribe. We
thank them for tendering us the
offer, but we must decline. The
price of The Courier is $1.50 per
year, in advance. If a man were
to go to one of these gentlemen and
say he would give him two-thirds
the price of corn for a bushel, do
you suppose he would take it? We
do not solicit, subscriptions. We
are not going to insist upon any
person subscribing for The Courier.
We would be glad to have your
subscription if you tlnnk it worth
the price, but if you do not, then
we assure you vve shall not invade
your sacred rights and privileges
for the sake of a dollar and a half.
The Courier comeR to your home
each week for a fraction less than
three cents per week. We work
six days and you pay us lire whole
amount of three cents. We are not
working for any less than three
cents per week—put that in your
pipe and smoke it.
The cost of issuing a newspaper
is practically as high as it ever was.
Postage rates are expected to ad¬
vance on newspapers soon—we
hope they will not. If we could
do so, without financial loss, we
would send you The Courier for
$1.00 per year and you would not
have to ask us to reduce the price.
We only want a just compensation
<for our labor, and we appreciate
the co-operation of the public in
-aiding us give \\ hite county tlie
best sheet possible. If every family
in the county subscribed for their
home paper we would be able to
either give the county a better
paper or a paper for less money,
but until conditions governing the
publication of a newspaper in
White county change we are com¬
pelled to adhere to our present
price of $1.50.
Weekly newspapers have been
■bit as hard as any business in this
financial depression, yet they are
.gritting their teeth and taking their
anedicine without yelling pessimism
Your hearty co-operation spells
success for you as well as us. We
are doingpvhnt we can for White
county ; would you have us do
more? If sq, then come across
with that $1.50,
James A. Holloman’s articles
mot hiphly approved by Larry
Gantt. Holloman says the farmers
•can produce cotton under boll
weevil conditions and Gantt says
they can’t Go to it fellows if you
can amuse yourselves, but if you
•want to interest the farmers teil
him how to get rid of the little bug
and he will do the rest.

You frequently see boys kill
toads. They do It because they
wish to display what a “good
shot” they are with a stone. They
don’t know any better. One toad,
it is estimated, will devour insects
that will devour or damage $19.44
of the farmers crop per year.
The Federal Reserve Board re¬
ports that one and one-half billion
dollars of loans have decreased
since deflation. They think that is
good news, don’t they?
How about the pig and corn
clubs that should be creating in
White county’s youth better live¬
stock and a better system of farm¬
ing? Are these clubs at work? If
not, wliv? Don’t you see the need?
We know that they would have
been organized and working and
striving diligently to make White
county rank among the leading
progressive counties, had we had a
county agent for 1922.
Friends, it is not too late yet, if
we act at once. All of you who
desire to see our county be where
she ought to be, must CDnsent that
the advise and work of a county
agent is inestimable.
White county is rapidly advanc
ing regardless of what the- pessi¬
mist says. Can we afford to let
her slip a cog? No, Then let’s be
awakened to the importance of a
county agent and not loose a mo¬
ment in providing funds to help
pay his salary.
What will become of the White
County Fair if we have no county
agent? You certainly know what
a fair means to us, don’t you? But
you also know that to make a fair
a success it takes the work of a
county agent. The fair alone is
worth the salary of the county
agent. Then why do we hesitate
in providing funds to pay $300 to¬
ward his salary ? Don’t you think
we can raise $300 in White aounty
by public subscription, should the
county commsssionera decide not to
provide this amount? If we can’t,
we are not vary eager to produce
more products p«r acre,get a better
market and make our farm work
more profitable.
We trust that there will be
enough progressive farmers in
White county who will put every
ounce of energy they have into
this movement and not stop until
$300 are raised. Friends, we just
can’t afford to be without the ser¬
vices of a county agent during such
times as we are now passing
through, and we trust you feel that
way. If you do, we will have a
county agent for 1622,
We wonder how many stores in
Cleveland sell cabbage that were
raised in White county duringjqzi ?
Also we might add onions and the
numerous otiier necessary products.
Why don’t we produce these prod¬
ucts so our merchants could sell
them? There’s always a market
for well preserved and neatly pre¬
pared home-grown products.
Some people read every thing
they can get their hands on, so to
speak, and, yet, we venture they
can't tell you what they have rend
after all of this reading. Why?
Because they don’t think. Then,
wouldn’t it be a good idea not to
read so much but remember more?
In other words, we should grow as
we read. Herbert Spencer is quot¬
ed as saying : “If I read as much
as other people I probabiy should
not know any more than they do.”
There is a tremendous amount of
reading material that is wholly
worthless. Yet people read it, we
suppose, because it is something
new. If a book that is worth read¬
ing once, it is certainly worth read¬
ing again. But reading by itself
alone wont develop us to any notic
able extent, unless we THINK.
Do you think when you read?
Permanent betterment ofemploy
inent conditions in the state, at
least until the period of degression
is thourghly past, is seen in the
proposed$75,ooo,ooo highway bond
issue for Georgia by John N.
Holder. Chairmah of the state
commission.
On account of the great demand

True, there is an absence of that
appearance of 1919 prosperity in
the colums of Georgia weeklies,
but that same ginger remains in
the editoral pages. You can’t
quench the spirit of a Georgia

Oh ! young girl of the country
and country towns! Listen to us!
Stay at home with your farther
and mother and try to be happy by
making others happy. Don’t drift
aws#y. Don’t allow your heart to
be set on evil things. “Remember
now thou Creator in the days of
thy youth,” Be good. Marry an
honest, hard-working man and be
true to him all the days of your life, 1
so that, whether you are rich or
poor, you will never be ashamed to
look decent people squarely in the
face.—Alpharretta Free Press,
The German invention of “syn
thethic gold” by the simple pro¬
cess of called “alchemy,” for a
time at least, aroused much interest
in the financial circle, but through
the investigation of Prof. Fisher of
Yale University, it is found that
“there’s nothing to it.”
That fellow who got damage
because the sextons of a graveyard
got his wife’s earthly rernuine mix¬
ed up in the busy days of the in¬
fluenza in 1918 imagines that he
has opened the way for new legal
proceedings. If that is legal, what
about the many soldiers who were
bnried in France that cannot be
inentified.

reports of the various divisions of

subscriptions showed, white a few
hundred dollars short of the esti¬
mated cost, that the sum was grow¬
ing quite satisfactorily and that
the indications were that the whole
amount would be subscribed by
the end of the fiyomtj).
It was abo amicably decided
upon that no part of the ceurch
property would be sold, as was at
•first thought might be necessary to
raise sufficient means to complete
the work to be undertaken.

Uncle Bill Townsend wants to
know why a woman in short dress¬
es, honeycomb hose and a large

not so likely to take cold as a
country editor. We have searched
our cranium and decided that Jack
Paterson is the right fellow to an¬
swer this question.—Cleveland
Courier,
That ought not to be hard to
answer. The Editor suffers from
cold feet.—Alpharretta Free Press.
That’s the answer. Uncle Geor¬
ge. Now can you tell us how to
get them warm.
