Whole Georges cod fish at Hall Bros.
New Bught family white FISH, 8 lbs. for
25 cts. at Hall Bros.
The Free Press report of the meeting OF
the state dairymen's association says: SEC
onomic Aspects of Dairying," by j. N. Nc
Bride, OF Burton, was summarized in the
statement that dairying conforms to that
business that gives more nearly control over
all the factors of production and distribu-
ton, affords more employment Of labor dur
ing the whole year than any other branch OF
farming, and thus employs the farmers
sons who would otherwise be driven to the
city, and preserves the balance between
city and rural population. 1t pays better
wages to the employee than are paid to
clerks or unskiled LABOR in the city, thus
checking the continual decrease of the wage
earners' purchasing power. The dairyman
is not subjected to that ban of modern
civilization competition which
demoralizes all Legitimate industry. The
best interests of country from an economic
are subserved by diversity of in
dustries, and in this the dairy conforms,
since otherwise the raw materials consumed
would be thrown On already Overcrowded
grain market.

Do You Like Billiards?

If not, why do you remain in the North
when You can go South and avoid the biz
yards and live with more comfort? You can
be out in the sunshine all the time and have
green vegetables from your garden every
day In winter. Fuel costs nothing. II
costs less to live and there is more pleasure
in living every month of the year along the
line of the Mobile and Ohio railroad than in
the North. Lands are very cheap. Now is
the time to investigate. Write K. K. POsey,
