We believe business will further increase as
people appreciate quality at medium prices instead OF

believe the more automobiles come into use, the
greater will be the conviction that doesn't pay to try 10

MAKES BUTTER AND
ALSO MAKES MONEY

Mr.. J. R. Beck, living on rural route
No. 2 was in town yesterday and left
an interesting statement of compare
tive results he has obtained from sell
ing his cream to the creameries and
making his butter himself.
Mr.. Beck did not feel satisfied with
his income when selling to the cream
cries, and on the 10th of last Decem-
Der decided to churn his output him
self.
While selling his cream Mr.. Beck
says his income from six cows was
between $l4 and 81 per month; since
making his own butter he has received
from only four cows SIS a month.
This is showing that would bear in
vestigation, as the difference is well
worth while.
SERIOUS FIRE ON NORTH SIDE

almost as much damage by water as
could possibly have been inflicted by
the fire.
Mrs. Hall, who has been ceriously
i'll for some time, suffered somewhat
from shock and excitement. but or
the whole. was surprisingly little at
fected.
The origin Of the FIRE Is mystery
1t originated in the kitchen. at a time
when no one was in that part OF the
house. The lucs are said to have beer
constructed with the greatest care ane
there is no explanation offered as te
the origin Of the blaze.
The FIRE was first detected by Mr.
Hall, who was standing on the hill
back of his house. and seeing smoke is
suing from the kitchen, aroused thu

with the flames by means of an extern
pore bucket brigade. while the fir'

WILL VOTE SCHOOL BONDS.

The residents of school district
No. Is, the new district recently
created on the Doumecq, will be
called upon to vote bonds for
the erection Of school house
soon. This district was created
short time ago to meet the
demands of that fast growing
community for better school ac-
commodations. Under the old
conditions, many of the residents
of the district have been com
PEELED to send their children long
distances to school, and in bad
weather school privileges were
almost denied. The directors are
planning to build a modern school
house which will meet the de-
mands of the district for several
years.
A third school district is soon
to be established on the Doumecq
and Superintendent Granville is
up there today comforting with
those who are working to that
end.-Sun.
