— Enemies of the Press.

Ti ead vertisers help to make a newspaper and the newspaper helps to make a (own. Do you see the connection? A southern Indiana peach gn wer say s that the peach crop is not injured by the seven* winter and that everything points to a splendid crop this season. Washington's birthday was observed at the Orange school house on Wednesday, the 22d inst., with exercises by the scholars and teachers. I The entertainment was very interest ' ing and well attended. An editor who realizes what a high priced article is, says frozen potatoes can be restored to palatablvuess by peeling them and letting them lie in a cool place, with plenty of cold water poured over them. In twenty-four hours all the sugar that has been formed by the freezing process will have been removed and the potatoes will be found to be perfectly palatable. ‘•Dick” Neff, the hero of the f<*tal wreck nt Corn on January 20. is being handsomely recognized. The Indian apolis News and the state legislature j have presented him medals for con- j spicuous bravery and the Lake Erie ■ & Western has given him a S2OO watch and chain. In addition to this gift, i the company will take care of Neff in ; . a good position as soon as he is able . to go back on the road. । In every newspaper office the ten- j । deney of advertisers is to delay sending in their copy until (he eleventh hour, says a well informed newspaper mam Generally the tardy advertise- : meats are ones which might just as j well been written some time in adI vance. While the newspaper is put to inconvenience l»y this disposition to delay, the advertiser is the worst sufferer. The typographical display of an advertisement is half the battle? and the printer should have all the time, and. every opportunity to do effective work. Most advertisers know this, but they need constant reminders.

He says: ‘•This will be the last of the winter storms in northern states, and the weather, will become warmer very rapidly, forcing the crop season from that condition usually called late to the oilier extreme called early spring."
