ARDMORE LOOKS BETTER AFTER
VISIT TO INSPECT RANCH
PROPERTY IN WESTERN TEXAS
- NOT MUCH RAIN THERE.

West Texas is not altogether a
land Of milk and honey" remarked
Captain w. f. Wilmington, who has
Just returned from a prospecting tour
of that section of the state, and where
he has been on deal for some time
to exchange his hotel property in this
city for ranch property there. The
deal has not been made yet and from
what he said this morning, probably
will not be, unless the owners of the
ranch property make a much more
liberal offer than they have to date.
The Captain stated that one of the
principal reasons he objected to that
locality was on account of the scarcity
of rain. He says it rains there "per-
haps," and, as he has teen accus-
toned to a normal rainfall the most
of his lie, cannot seem to reconcile
himself to conditions as they prevail
in west Texas.
Mr. Wilmington is also negotiating
for some ranch property in western
New Mexico, but does not know at
present what the deal will amount to.
For the present he will remain in Ard
more and continue to operate the ho-
tel, until something better shows up.

Lifted Business Out of the Rut

in the ground, he pumps the gasoline
into a still and refines it. John d.
has a way OF leaving water in gaso-
line, and Buchanan takes il all out
before he uses it. He treated 20 gal
Ions of gasoline, and extracted two
gallons of water. This gasoline is
run into a big drum-like washing ma
chine, a soap made for use IN the
gas oil is used, and the clothes are
power hitched to it. There is sad
separation of dirt and clothes when
that drum begins to move. From the
wash drum the garments are placed
in a centrifugal machine, and, while
it makes 1900 revolutions to the min
ute, all the dirt that is leit-and the
gasoline, too-are driven out. Aud the
going out is so gentle that the clothes
do not show what is taking place.
The clothing is placed back into the
drum and given the same treatment
over again. After they come from
the centrifugal machine the second
time, they are steam dried. They
are conveyed next to that new steam
pressing machine, and an expert iron
er does the rest This steam iron is
not one of the ordinary tlat-bed irons.
It is made oval so it fits over the
fabrics and steam is puifed through
them from the top and the bottom.
1t is revelation to see the modern
way of cleaning clothes. You are
invited to take a look at the gar
ments as they hang in line waiting
to be sent out. They look so inviting
that the temptation comes to put on
a suit that looks like it would make
a fit. 1t is a privilege that comes to
few men to get to wear a suit that
has been cleaned by the man who
lifted the pressing and cleaning busi-
ness out of the rut.
Here is a crown for a man who
can break away from the old way,
here is success to the man who can
trust his fellow men to buy the best,
and euuips himself to sell the best

The world is looking for men who
can get out of the rut Your business
is never so small but what it might
get into a rut and stay there, and no
business is so small that it cannot be

Here is a man who got out of the
rut. He had the courage to pick up
a trough of devitalized gasoline and a
big rough brush and throw them out
OF the window. He had the faith in

sire for good service that enabled him
