Hold Your Corn.

We noticed recently loads of
immature corn in town for sale
which were disposed of quickly
at s1.00 per barryl. Some of our
farmers no doubt need little
money Just now. but they should
hold on until The cereal is matured
and it will bring them Slips a
barrel. Plenty of corn, to the
farmer means plenty of poultry,
eggs, meat, food and bread a
small credit account if any with
his merchant the next season.
Save your corn, sell a yearling or

hold fast TO your corn.-Rayne

The Real Estate Agency.

In this issue of the Sentinel
will be found the advertisement
of the Winfield Real Estate
Agency, which is composed of
gentlemen who know something
of the values of real estate and
how such property should be ham
died to make it valuable. This
agency proposes to handle proper
ty in every way-buy,; sell, lease,
rent, improve, etc-and it solicits
the patronage of all parties having
business in either line. Such an
agency is of special benefit to this
community, for strangers coming
here either to purchase or lease
property may go to this agency
and be shown almost any kind of
property they wish to see and can
know at once just what such
property is worth. 1t will fecili-
tate business and save time and
expense to all parties in any kind
of a real estate deal.
Winfield has long needed such
an agency and we are pleased to
note that one has been organized,
and we feel certain that it will
receive a good, patronage from
those who have real estate to dis
pose of, as well as those who wish
70 invest in real estate.

two loaves of homemade bread,
sent us by Sister Trip, who has
been subscriber to our paper
for twenty-five years-eyer since
she lost her third husband, who
was one of the best men in this
country, and stood six feet four
inches in the wooden socks she
knitted for him with her own
hands, which are rcyer weary of
well-doing, aud Which will one
day receive q crown of glory in

The Southern Sentinel seems
inclined to ''make faces" at The

'patent insides and outsides."

issue of The Sentinel i'm which
reference is made to this matter,

as the ''patent" feature to which
you refer.-Dodson Times.
We are not in. the paper bus

publish facts. 1t is fact that
a small town like Dodson now is

patent sided paper to withstand
the bolts of poverty hurled at it
by close-fisted business men with
holding advertising patronage.
Patent sides is the cheapest mat
ter a paper can give Its readers,
and is also best for the readers
when compared with the character
and ability of some newspaper
men!
