NO-WE HAVEN'T DISCONTINUED PUBLICATION,.
rp',e s,'i;or of the Valley Settler was very sorry to find it necessary to suspond the
publication of the Valley Settler for the pact two weeks, Circumstances were such
that it became impossible to get a paper ov,te
Ir> the first place there was no one to candle eggs for oyer -a week and this job seemed
to'fall in the lap of the Editor since she war enp.j.'-yod if. the .-rearnsry end was a^.so
acquainted with that type of work. To make m tt rs worse, the her.e d;d no. know tnat
there was no egg candler and decided to increase pr :aucti-.n at this
In the second place, the Annual Inventory came at tie came tmo5 The old saying that
trouble never coihe singl0lyr< is certainly *bpr©, ^7..th tie a_ded of Xn.wntory,
plus egg candling- plus the usual routine work in the Creamery Office, the job of
publishing the Valley Settler m3 pushed to the background for the time being.
Wo aro glad to say at this writing that someone has boen found to candle the eggs and
the heaviest part of Inventory is over. The "valley Cottier can again go to press th s
week.
It was indeed unfortunate that right at this time the Valley Rentiersman found it
necessary to discontinue publication which left the va. iey without any n.wspap-r. The
Valley Settler for the past few months has not attested, go f:U the need c- a general
newspaper. Tie have confined our efforts largely t1 the Co-op news end articles whic
we thought might be of particular interest to the farmers, iny otnor nows pertaining
to the Conmuntiy has always boon very welcome ard will coirnmnua ;o be weIcccn- in our
columns. However, due to the fact that the Editor has found it necessary to earn
part of her living doing other work, the work of gathering news has teen somewhat
criunled. But—we will do the heat that we can to rut out a 3 good a pan sr as is pos
sible under the present c ircunistonces* hJe apyre^ia: 0 the cooperation 01 tbo peopl
of the Community in helping to make this possible*
It is time to be thirkihg 'about'our annual Christmas issue, and sinCG 170 do have some
