MUST RUB THE HERALD.
Kev Mr. McFarland, now of North
Carolina, formerly the beloved
of the Baptist Church in this place,
whose appreciative letter we gave to
our readers in last week's Herald,
was only with tis sonic two years, and
yet during thal short time became s<>
n lin- place and the people
that lie enjoys -i weekly letter from
them and therefore renews his sub*
scription to Farmville's only paper.
There are others, and we record the
fact in sorrow, who have heen living
?rc- of year- whose
name- have not as yet appeared on
the list of subscribers.
The man or the woman who would
be a help to neighbors must live in
uch with them, and so living
gets interested in them. Such are
our wants to know all that concerns
them that there may he ready sympa?
thy for sorrow and for joy. Bind your
. OU with "hooks of steel. "
and if you would keep in living touch
with Farmville and the surrounding
country, read the Herald. Remember
inly two cents a copy, just the
on one letter.

E HOI SUPPLY.
We notice that some haled hay is
still being sold in this market, nol in
sucli quantities, however,

We make no war on the trade of
our merchants when we express the
hnpr that the time i- not far in thc
future when every hale Of hay sold in
Farmville shall come from the farms
of the adjacent territory. When it
? n demonstrated that our
ran he made to yield four tons to the
acre it is idle to say that
not be grown in this section profita?
bly. What are known as peculiarly
hay-growing states make no betti
port than this, and it certain.)
no more to grow grass here than it
does elsewhere. And the farmer who
it musl be certain to hale it.
The das for loose load- of hay for
market i- gone, lt must be pressed
into convenient torin for handling
without wa
We have made no inquiry on the
subject bul sincerely hope no farmer
is buying hay in this market. lat
this be done by doctors, lau
preachers, tuen hint- and manufactu?
rers, but by fanner-, never.
Grow all you need at home, and
then have-onie for market. And how
much more pleasant to cut hay riding
on a mower, rake it with the aid oi ?(
hone, lift it with machinery and then
haled than to he worming, suckering,
cutting and housing tobacco
