Of the 16 selected; 14 were from Manitoba and two from Saskatchewan. We billed. them at a dollar a 3ear all round, notwithstanding the fact that according to our standing announcement of rates we might :have asked a dollar and a half ' from each one in arrears. The total amount came to the neat little sum of $138, a sum that would help us out ver}. nicelv at this season of the year if We had it. Think of sixteen subscribers in the Wheat growing nrovinces of Manitoba and Saskatchewan. Drov- inces that boast of their human": crops. Think of them. We say. arrli then wonder Why they should fail: to pay a paltry subscription of 3% dollar a year to the paper that. has been everlasting boosting the; possibilities of our great Western heritage No doubt the country s all right Just as good as We say it is, perhaps, or even better. vet the people have evidently fallen into habits of carelessness. inrlik ference or neglect, to allow their subscriptions to go unpaid so lOflf". We have only picked out six- teen, but We believe we have three or four times as many in the great west who are equally delin- ouent. For Weeks. now we will be hear-i ing of the bumper crops, and thei hundreds of millions of bushelsl the golden west will furnish for‘: the feeding of the people. Many in the west are getting richon the generous yield of a most product-l ive soil. We are glad to think they: are doing well, but our enjoyment" over their prosperity would be; much more complete if they would i remember the unpaid subscriptions ‘ and let us have a prompt remit- tance. There are some who never fail to pay promptly, some who are not quite so prompt, but they pay some time. Some never pay, and some, after taking the paper for years, are evidently ashamed to do the dirty Work themselves, but have the post- master to say it is “refused.” '1. ‘_-_ It is a strange world, and it has many strange people. What a my it would be to get that $138 durâ€" ingr the next few days. We would respectfully ask those who have not already remitted to do so LO- day. RIGHT FROM THE 'l‘RENCHESj We were pleased to have a let- ter from Corp. Stedman. It - was dated in Flanders on the 4th of July, and reached our sanctum on the 24th.
