We will send large numbers of this edition of The Democrat to the farmers of this section and the business men should not fail to give this worthy enterprise a strong and generous support. We have secured the services of Mr. E. L. L.

Now is the time to show the people that all have confidence in Rensselaer and her future prospects. Let every business give support and encouragement to this enterprise.
