The Atmore Advance was founded in 1927 in Atmore, Alabama.[1] It has a circulation of approximately 2,000, and serves Atmore and surrounding Escambia County, Alabama.[2] It is published each Wednesday by Atmore Newspapers, Inc.[3]
Through its early history the editorial board was supportive of the Democratic Party. However, the editorial board broke with tradition in 1964, endorsing Republican Barry Goldwater for President.[4]
In 1979 the paper was purchased by Morris Newspaper Corporation from long-time owner Bob Morrisette.[5] Morrisette, who had bought the paper in 1959 with Philipp Sokol,[6] was a past president of the Alabama Press Association. He stayed on with the board of the directors during the transition.[5]

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
