That Contested Allowance.

Mr.. Editor -
Allowances 10 widows, By Probate
Courts. are made dependant, in amount.
upon the necessities Of the widow "ac-
cording to the degree and estate OF her
husband and the state oil the family under
her care" r. S. Oh. 65 S2l.
Therefore what she owns in her own
right becomes an important element OF
judgment by the Court. Four hundred
dollars o,oned by her in her otcn right are
as good as four hundred dollars Gliot1ed
her.
But very often, in considering these
cases, the question arises to determine
whether husband or wife owns certain
item of property-and the Court often,
entirely independent even of suggestion
of counsel has doubt. Now. however
slight his doubt, by specifically allowing
this item to the widow, every possible
doubt and every possible chance to sue
the widow or the representative OF the
estate by heir or creditor is removed and
"dead mems estates" are thereby best
protected from litigation aud consequent
delay in settlement.
In the trial in the Probate Court OF the

WHAT Is CLAIMED
FOR THE
GARRY IRON ROOF.

LIST. II is made from the best of stock
| charcoal iron), and no pains or expense
spared in protecting il against corroding or
rust, thereby making it durable. Ten years
experience has proven TO US its superiority in
durability and practicability over all other
metal roofs.
End. There is NO ROOF in the market as
safe against fire. The crosslocEs or seams are
grooved together and the seams capped, then
the whole rivited together, so that in case Of
an extreme fire, when the iron should become
"red hot" the seams and locks CANNOT
come apart, thereby preventing fire from get
ting into the building or, if inside, from
busting out and firing all adjoining.
Sd. 1t is impossible for lightning to injure
a building covered with the GARRY IRON
ROOF.
4th. When durability and amount saved in
insurance are considered, it is the cheapest
roof in use.
9Th. 1t is adapted TO all classes of buildings
aud any shaped roof, and can be easily put
on or repaired in case of injury without an
experienced hand
There are other iron roofs, in the market,
but they are defective in material, preserva-
ton, application, &c.
Consult your own interest and investigate
the GARRY ROOF.
If you have any leaky tin roofs or cutters,
repair them with G. /. R. Co.'s Cement.
If you want good fire proof door or shut
ter, try the G. | r. Co.'S.
If you wish to side your buildings with
iron and have them FIRE-PROOF, try the
Garry Siding.

consult

The Oliver Chilled PIOw.
CEDAR GRovE, August, 1878.

OEDAK UKUVE, august, 1918.
Mr. L. l.. MOORE:
think the Oliver Chilled Plow, which
have fairly tested, superior to any Plow |
have ever used or seen; and for the reason
that 1t is, in my opinion, constructed upon
purely scientific principles, fact which |
think will be obvious to any intelligent per-
son who is not prejudiced and will study its
construction and witness its work.
Science, when practically applied, "will
tell" as think is clearly shown in the very
light draft and excellent work Of these Plows
WOULD NOT BE WITHOUT THEM fol
any consideration which farmer could rea.
sonably refuse.
Yours truly, WIN. READING.
