SHEEP ON WHEAT RANCHES.
Davenport Washing1Qp, Farmer
Makes Big Profits from Small
Flock,

Does 1t pay to keep sheep on
wheat ranches? We were asked to
look into the matter by one of our
leading business men, says the Da-
venport Tribune, and as far as the
data at our command we have done
so.
James Slater has 40 head of sheep
on his Larene farm and Donald Nc
Innis has recently acquired small
flock. Mr.. Slater is highly pleased
with his venture from a financial
standpoint. His older sheep which
are sheared in the spring averaged
10 pounds of wool to the head, for
which he was offered Is cents per
pound, or $3.50 each. His flock in
creased this season from IS to 40
head. He is selling his wethers to
the local butchers for Sc and his
February lambs command still
better price for mutton.
The profits do not stop here. AS
weed exterminators they are hard to
excel. They easily do in a short time
and do 1t more effective than six

becomes delinquent, and there will
be added to such balance a penalty
of 10 per cent, ana in addition, such
balance will bear interest at the rate
of ~ per cent per annum from the
first Monday in April until paid.
On all personal property taxes, II
one-half is not paid on or before the

pels the sheriff to levy upon and coll
lect the same after May 1, hence to
prevent a levy upon personal prop.
erty after May 1t will be necessary
for one-half to be paid as above
stated.
The law compels the sheriff to sell
all lands upon which taxes have not
been paid, and that such sale shall
not be held later than March Of

which the tax levy was made.
The property will be sold to the
person bidding the lowest rate of in

/, Why you should trade with the
Growing store: Because it is
one of the Oldest firms in the
county; the store has remained
continuously in the hands of its
priginators, and does not depend
upon hired help in any official or
supervising capacity.
Every dollars worth of stock
in the concern is and always has
been owned and controlled by the
Growing family, there being no
outside stockholders or speculat-
ors to kick" for, big dividends,
or influence the keeping of
cheaper goods for more profits.
There are good many small
merchants and some large ones
who make a special low price
on certain cheap articles, and
who are not prepared to do this
on the highest grade goods it
they wanted to. :
The lowest prices on high
grade merchandise of guaranteed
value, together with reputation,
honesty of purpose, has made
this store what it is today.
