Let us all be thankful. In this State and County .we also have much for which to he thank ful. A big harvest has been ours. The prices for our products "have been exceptionally good and we are able' to feel greater independence today than ever before. Thouaanda of our people can be thau|tfiil to morrow that they are out of debt, and what a feeling of joy this must bring to slL No famine, no pestt* lence. no great sorrows, nothing but prosperity and happiness.

We do not know how lopg this war will last, nor have we any guarantee tlpt we shall make good harveocs naxt year, nor that we shall be able to sell our,products as well as they are being sold now. So It behooves us to~save every dollar possible, this year, and lay it aside for the rainy day which is surely coming.
