The Great Foe to Happiness.


From the Pilgrim
The greatest foe to home peace and
happiness is worry. The habit Of worry
keeps us crossing bridges before we get
to them. The evils that fret US most
are those which threaten us but have
not yet arrived. Stop thinking about
the bread you are afraid will not rise in
the morning, the new dress you are sure
the dressmaker will spoil and next
months gas bill. If you will firmly re =
solve 10 worry only about the evil or
special hardship that confronts you this
hour or minute, and cannot be avoioed
niAety.nine times out Of 100 you will
and there is no such evil or hardship.

The Fleming Hay
stacker
And what your neighbOrs think
of

There have been but few of the labor
saving, hay.saving machines used in this
county, but al! with whom we have talked
who have used them and have seen
them work, agree that they work easier,
put up more hay and do the work het-
ter than any other stacker in use,
Mr. Leonard Boat, who lives miles
north of Aztec says
Aztec, N, M. May 81, 1909.
The San Juan Stores Co.,
Gentlemen:
Last season | purchas.
ed and used Fleming Stacker
and am well pleased with it, ! re-
gard it as perfect haying machine and
handles hay in all conditions, easily
aud cheapIy.
| used the stacker during windy
weather without any trouble.
Any good stout boy, - or II years old,
canhandle the rakes after the horses get
used to them. Only one able bodied
man is needed in stacking, that is the
man on the stack. The company claims
the stacker and rakes will save ) per
cent more hay than the old way Of
handling, | Hm satisfied they will do
even better than that as there is prac~
tically no loss in handling.
Leonard Boat.
Aztec, n. NJ.
The San Juan Stores Co,
Gentlemen,
| have used the Fleming
stacker and rakes and consider it the
best haying outfit have ever seen,
| have used them in Emery County
Utah, fer 3 seasons and would rather
have one Fleming stacker with rakes
than two derrlcks, and have used both
! have stacked alfalfa from the winrow
and find the machine works equally we'll
in damp or dry hay. No one who has
hay to handle can make mistake in
buying a Fleming outfit. Four of us
put up from 30 to 30 tons of hay a day
with a Fleming stacker and two rakes.

Mr., Gale lives on the Joe Dalprie
ranch miles north Of Aztec.
