to the Lancaster Ncwm an follows:

if one or two of the seed are put in

will not go that way any more."
\\ hat a Newspaper Does.
Speaking of what a uuwaoaper
does for h community, United
States Senator David Davis, of II
linoig, made an address that re
mains ever green in the memory of
newspaper men. He -naid :
"Every year every local paper
gives from 500 to 5,000 free lines
for the benefit of the community in
w hlch it in published ( which if paid
for at the regular advertising rates
would amount to hundreds of dol
bus.) No other agency can or will
do this. The editor in proportion
t<- hia means does moro for his own
town than any other man. lie
ought to be supported not because
iyoii happen to like him or admire
liia wiiuing, but because a local pa
per in the best investment a com
munity can nioko. It may not be
crowded with great thought but
financially, it is of more benefit
than both preacher and teacher.
Today editors do more for less pay
than any other men on earth. Pat
ronize your home paper not as a
charity, but as an investment." ? Kx.
