Mr.. Carr, OF Cnlcd9O, VINO OWNS
fine farm near Clapper, was looking
after his interests here last week.
Mr.. Carr bought this land several
years ago and he could realize a
handsome profit by selling it now,
but he declares that so long as it
pays a nice percentage on the
money invested, it is not for sale at
all. Mr.. Carr is a shrewd business
man and knows a good thing when
he sees it, hence, he invests his coin
in. Missouri land.

Trees and Wind.

The effect Of wind upon trees is
powerful Even the presence or nb-
sence Of forests may be determined
by the character of the prevailing
wind or the conditions that modify it.
The wind acts as drying agent. CIV
ing a special aspect to many plarts.
When it is almost always from Ihe
same quarter the plants show greater
development upon one side. Trees are
smaller on the windward edges Of for
ests, and trunks and branches are
bent to leeward. The determinations
are most marked near the sea OF. in
aat regions. The cherry. plum. wal
nut, black poplar, ash and certain
pines are very sensitive to the wind
but mountain pines and certain frs
offer great powers Of resistance. and
these are recommended for reforesting
wind swept lands.

you transact the business for me-"
MY good friend" replied the bank
