Some have responded, some have not. Those who have failed to remit should do so at once, before we are compelled to take their names off the list. , Under the second class mailing privilege the postal laws forbid , us to send the paper to subscribers more than one year in arrears , without due notice. It cost mon-, , ey to run a newspaper and no business can exist with ifnlimit- ■ ed credit. Look on the label of your paper and if you are in ar- , rears call at the of>'ce or send the amount due by mail. We are ( trying to obey the laws and rules of the postoffice department and j our subscribers can he'p us greatly by n>t allowing their sub- . scription to "become in arrears. , Every laborer is worth his hire. This also includes the editor. - o THE COUNTY FAIR In many sections of the United States the annual county fair has become an established institution. Already the urograms for the .autumn's events are ’being sent broadcast, and with U e pro- , .miso of an abundance of thc«e products of the land which comprise the major portion of tie! displays offered, interest is keen, even in homes far removed fr >m I the countv seat, or the sitp, I wherever it is, that has been fix-; ed upon’ for the exhibition. In . the years in which political campaigns are waged these fairs afford a great open forum for discussion of the issues which interest the farmer folk. The astute campaigner is never slow in ' taking what advantage he may of the opportunity afforded. But there are many other attract for the displays themselves, together with the exhibits of new machinery and other mechanical devices in operation, constitute a school of instruction for farmers’ sons and daughters, as well as for the farmers and their wives. It is the "harvest home" season, a getting together of the people of the rural districts in friendly comradeship that makes better men and women and bet ter citizens. GIANT INCUBATOR Says the Milford Mail: “A mammoth incubator, canable of handling 40,000 eggs, is on its way from Cleveland, Ohio, and will be in the hands of Fred Brettz, in a few days. Mr. Bretz expects to do hatching for others as well as his own, in boosting | the poultry industry of Northern Indiana. "More than 5000 eggs will be placed in the ; ncubator every third day, according to plans, and when the last 5.000 eggs go in the first will be ready for hatch-| ing. It will be run by steam heat, sufficient humidity to be fed automatically into the chambers. Four fans will keep the heat distributed properly. The 40,000 eggs can be turned in two minutes.” SCHOOL HACKS TAX FREE Under provisions of the federal tax act signed bv Pres : dent Coolidge, June 3. 1924.-drivers of motor school hacks will net have to pay the tax heretofore assessed them and for which nearly all in Kosciusko county were assessed last spring with a fine attached. If the motor hack is used for any other purpose than transporting school children. Revenue Collector Zollinger, of Goshen, will collect the tax. ■ — — - oAN EDUCATION In Electrical Engineering.
