This did not stump the old lady. But
that's another matter-I don't like him

triumphantly.
That Is the position some pebble have
taken regarding that wholesome and
refreshing beverage Coca Cola. They
have said good many unkind things
about It and in each instance have had

not true.
Finally they seized upon the fact that
Coca Cola gets much Of its refreshing

that As splendid argument against Il.
Then, like the old lady who was remind
ed of son William, they were reminded
that 1t IL the caffeine In their favorits
beverages, tea and coffee, (even more
than In Coca Cola) that gives them
their refreshing and sustaining quail

But does that stop their criticism Of
Coca-Cola for containing caffeine? No
their answer is similar to the old
lady's-they say "But that's another
matter"-what they mean Is "Being
pre5udiced against Coca-Cola and lik-

We think the joke Is on them-for
caffeine is caffeine, and II It IL not
harmful in one it can't be harmful in
another. We all know that it is not
harmful In tea or coffee-that It Il
really helpful in whatever It is-this
is bound to include Coca-Cola.
OF course. the truth is. that having
started an attack on false premises and
having had what they thought were
good reasons for criticism proved to
be no reasons at all, they are graspinx
at an excuse which does not exist, to
explain prejudice. So you see, after

DEEP FLOWING IS ESSENTIAL
Equally Necessary Where Dry Farm
Ing Methods Are Employed In
Use Of Surface Packer.

In all localities where dry farming
methods are employed. deep plowing
is essential. Equally necessary is the
use OF the subsurface packer, blade
harrow or some other implement that
will pack the furrow slice firmly
against the subsoil. These two things
are essential to the preparation OF a
good seed bed and seed bed which
will take up and hold all the preclpi.
tation during the fall and winter. Cen
orally speaking. too much plowing
and narrowing is done for the express
purpose OF getting enough loose dirt
on the surface to cover the seed. Az
moisture is paramount to the growing
OF any crop, methods conducive to
the taking up Of that moisture by the
soil and the holding Of the same In
the soil for the growing crop are
important factors in crop produc-
