The contracts paid in advance ! by the local subscribers call for so many extra copies of the February number of the magazine. Magazines are usually issued on tho first of the month and in many instances are is sued before that time. The number of tho magarine which was subscrib ed for is now, therefore, some 30 to 40 days overdue.
