FOR ONE DOLLAR. As we have stated before, when The * Herald and Xews resumed publication last February, after a brief suspension we did not feel that it would be wise to commence at once the old rule of . cas-h in advance, and then, besides, at that time business was fearfully dull and the people were blue and remained very much in that frame of mind until ? ?-*- - ---- ttt. ' tne Close 01 me summer, we uaiueu, and so stated, that we would not take any names off our list until the fall, at least, and that if any one did not care for the paper or intend to pay for it please to notify us and we would + o"br^ tKfl -n o m?> riff thA list Wp haVA VUV UU?*<V v?* vv-V . v -w, been ivery much gratified that so fewdiscontinued. In fact we did not lose a dozen. But now times are better and more money is in circulation, and we muse be paid the small amount that is due usv or we can not continue to send the paper. Ill iOOlving <j>ci yui iuamufe list on Friday we found that in the short period of ten months we had accumulated about 800 whose date still bears the figures 1915. ;\Ve have 1 thought about a contest, but our experience with contests is not satisTf it,-,,! cr&t fh<? contestants in IV/i J -L i J vu v? V ~ leresied you get the subscribers and collect the money, but by the time you i pay the premiums and the commissions to the managers fnere is nothing left, and so we abandoned that idea. To get some one to collect the back dues will cost over 30 per cent. So (that is not practicable. We want to get on the cash basis again. In fact, it is the only way to handle the subscription list of a country paper. On the credit system we accumulated at one time once before ^ rvn ha r>V <5.1 lh over ICU luvuoauu uvuuiv ~ ? scription, and charged it off at one time. We can not afford to do that any more, bat we find that tn months we have accumulated abc*^ $1,200 on this account. We can not -stand that either. We know that our subscribers will realize- the force of what we here say. We do not want to part with any of you. We love you as a member of the family. We do not desire to be under-1 ci/wi n? h^ine' inclined to i>ut a pre mium on getting in arrears. But we want to give you -an opportunity and an inducement to get in advance again. 9o we have decided to give you the paper fof one year for ONE DOLLAR, if it is paid by or before March 1, 1S16, ' at 6 p. m. This applies to old sub scriberts, wh<v are in arrears, ana new subscriberts and all others. fWfe want to treat every one alike and be fair t to all. So even if you are paid in ad^ vance you can get a year for ONE S|r DOLLAR. We will not take a subm scription at this rate for less than a W year nor for longer than two years. After the first of March every namej | on our mailing list that has not paid at least to 1916 will be stricken off. i There will be no respector of persons * oil account of anything. We do this to give those who ha.ve gotten behind an opportunity to catch up, and in order to be fair to those who are in advance they can have the same rate * ?A.'J b i m r\ OI one GOliar, U pctiu uecwccu s and ll?.rch 1. Send ?. dollar bill, a dollar check, a dollar money order, any way so you get us the dollar. And get it now. We would not despise even a silver dollar or lour quarters or two halves. Don't postpone this. Do it now. We are working with a small force and can not get cut and collect subscriptions, and it does not pay to send out collectors, and besides, under this - 11 or fy~k Crvf& tVlfi V LLVI , V> \c 010 upvoiuwj w t,ii. >-?V. sruibecriber the commission we would pay the collector. Whp not earn it and earn it now? This is the only opportunity. . We are going to give you a better ? paper than we have ever given and I that means some paper. This is going to be a political year, and while The Herald and News is not going to be in politics or tcte the skillet for any of the politicians, we expect to print the news and give all sides a fair and square deal, and tell the truth as we see it. We will comment and criticize as .we think the public welfare de mands of a newspaper.

S. department of agriculture, the county home demonstrator workers of South Carolina were aiioraea tne opporiumy tn spending the month of January at Winthrop college. Courses in agriculture, poultry, domestic science, canning, home conveniences and dairying were taught by members of Wint'nrop faculty, members of the South. Carolina home demonstrator workers and officials from the department of agri culture in Washington. The courses were very interesting, the rural communities always being foremost in the mind. In addition ro the benefits derived from clie above courses, the exchange of ideas of the thirty county agents was helpful, the spirit of co-operation, being prevalent at all times. I should like this opportunity of thanking the people of this county for their hearty co-operation in ray work during the past year. As I launch out on the beginning of another year I shall still count on your co-operation. ivVith -ast year's- experience and the co-operaiion of my demonstrators, we hope to accomplish still greater things in 1916. If any school or community, which I have not visited, would like to know something or co-operate in our work, I shall be glad for them to communicate with me. V Willie Mae Wise. Co.
