done the twenty-five-fOot aerial pole,
which was split in twain during the
heavy thunderstorm Saturday at noon.
The damage was comparatively trif.
ling, though workmen found it hard to
repair the pole, due to its position on
top of. a tall smokestack. The streak
of lightning that did the damage was
peculiar one, inasmuch as it allowed
the receiving of messages, though none
could be sent.

HAVE YOU ever stopped to think that
the feed you use has more to do with
your success In poultry raising than any
other one thing 1t is an undisputed
fact and the sooner our Southern Poul
trymen realize this fact the better sue
cess they will have. This applies to the
man with a thousand chickens or more
and also to the man that has a few
hens in the back yard for home use
BY proper feeding, a dozen hens should
furnish eggs enough the year round for
an ordinary family, but you can't get
the results by feeding just any old kind
of feed. The majority of the grocery
stores sell chicken feed at pounds for
20 cents, and usually 1t is a very in
ferior grade. We will sell and deliver
to you 10 pounds of Red Comb Feed for
25 cents, and 1t is the cleanest and best
sold on this market We handle the
Red Comb Feeds exclusively and sell
them to you at the same price or less
than you have been paying for feed that
isn't nearly so good Let us send you
out a bag of this feed or a 10-pound
package and compare 1t with what you
are using. We deliver promptly to all
parts of the city

OF this and the rather belated buying
from other outside sources as well as by
local interests to secure profits. This
latter policy was continuation OF the

some of the big interests who were most
active in turning the market up a fort
