Th plan Is to buy from e "H paper ween, ly subscriptions to the amount r $10.00, and to sand to prospective sdi tiers whose letters senm to warran it, oue of the papers for a period o three months. This will give the clul an opportunity to furnish 800 inqui ars with ordinary-every-day unvarnisii ed Information regarding our clrj ind our resources that could be givei (by no reasonable amount of lette writing.

Once a farmer had 1,800 bushels o wheat, which he sold, not to a single rraln merchant, but 1,800 differen Icalers, a bushel each. A few of then paid lu cash, but far the greater num ber said U was not convenient then; .hey would pay later. A few months ,assed, and the man's bank accoun ran low. "How is this?'' he said. "M) 1.800 bushels of grain should have kept me in affluence until anothe. crop Is raised, but I have parted with the grain and have instead only c vast number of accounts; so small and scattered that I cannot get arounc. and collect fast enough to pay ex penses." So he posted up a public notice and asked all those who owed him to pay quickly. But few came. The rest said, ".Mine Is only a smal. matter, and I will go and pay some of these days," forgetting that, though each account was very small, when all were put together they meant a large sum to the man. Thing3 went on thus. The man got to feeling so bad that be fell out of bed and awoke, and running to his granery, found his 1,800 bushels of wheat still safe there. He had only been dreaming. Moral. The next day the roan went .to the publisher of his paper and. said: "Here, air, is the pay for your paper, and when next year's subscrip- itlou Is due you can depend on me to pay promptly. I stood in the position of an editor last night, and I know how he feels to have one's honest earned money scattered all over the country In small amounts."
