Mr.. Jacobs was born in Goshen,

Fired, who died in 1903. Those living

Mr.. Jacobs came to Barton county,
Kansas, and located on a farm m
Beaver township in 1883, and that
farm remained his home until the
visit of the death angel last Sabbath
morning that called him away.
He was one of the early settlers
and was we'll acquainted with the
hardships and privatiCuS Of pioneer
life. In the early days when staying
almost meant starvation, Mr.. Jacobs
faced the situation with a grim and
dauntless courage that belong to men
that go for the upbuilding of empires
and winning of the plaudits Of ma
tons.
He was a good man and will be
sadly missed by those who knew him
best.

Get Most For Your Money

When you buy farm machinery,
implements CT stock, you seek
the most for your money.
Apply the same commcn sense
reasoning to your tire buying.
Investigate Ajax Tires! They
are the first stEniard make
tires to be guaranteed for 5000
miles. When you buy other
tires with verbally expressed
implied life Of $500 niles, you
are not getting your moneys
worth. You are losing at least
1900 miles! Ajax tires are
43 per cent better tires for the
same money. You will save
this $500 to $4,000 according
to size)?
Then let your choice for 1914
be Ajax.
The broad policy of the Ajax
guarantee was first adopted
nine years ago and every Ajax
tire sod since has carried the
pledge.

DRILLING AGAIN

Mr.. Rogers Of the Alberta Oil com
pany is in the city and is making an
effort to start the drilling again on
the Pate Jones well, east of Chickasha.
The driller has been here during the
past few days, inspecting the well,
which is now said to be about 1000
feet deep. He states that the hole is
in splendid condition and with but lit
tie work drilling might commence. lie
anticipates no trouble.
1t seems that lack of capital is de.
laying the completion Of the well. Mr.
Rogers has stated that it will require
about $4,000 TO put the well down 25Od
feet and that if he can get the busi
ness men of Chickasha to furnish
$4,000 OF that amount drilling will start
Immediately.
All tools and machinery have beer
put in the best possible condition a
the we'll to prevent rust during th'
close down and once sufficient funds
are available the well will be rushe'
TO completion.
