SONG OF THE FORD

(Sung to the tuno of Casey Jones.'')
Old Zeke Perkins sold his hogs the
other day,
And the gosh darn fool threw his
money right away,
Rode into town sitting on board,
And he came a ridin' home in a durn-
ed little Ford.
! When he came to the house and got
to the gate,
He shut down the throttle, and pulled
on the brake,
| He grabbed for the reins got the throt-
tie instead,
And the gol darned Ford kept chug-
ging right ahead.
CHORUS
| Old Zeke Perkins bought an automo-
Old Zeke Perkins whiskers they were
Old zeke Perkins lost the combina-
And the darned little Ford kept chug-
ging right ahead.
Zeke jerked the levers and turned off
the gas,
He kicked at the pedals, and he broke
out the glass,
He cut all the wires, and he pulled
off the top,
But the gosh darned Ford, it just
wouldn't stop.
He pulled out his knife and he smil
ed so serene,
He cut hole in the tank, and drain
ed out the gasoline;
He pulled out his gun and shot the
tires full of lead,
But the gol burned Ford kept chug-
ging right ahead.
Went right through the fence and up
through the lane;
Miranda saw him coming and she lik-
ed to went insane.
She ran out ahead, then she stopped
to see,
And the Ford hit her square where
the hustle ought to be.
She reached out her arm as she went
In the air,
Just as Zeke went by she grabbed him
by the hair,
She bounced on the seat and landed
on the bed,
And the gol burned Ford kept chug-
ging right ahead
He steered for the shed, but just miss
ed the hole;
Struck on an old SOW pig, and you
ought to see her roll,
Out through the yard they landed in
heap
In big mud puddle about two feet
deep;
Zeke grabbed Miranda and waded for
the shore,
He was glad when it stopped and
wouldn't go no more.
He pricked up his ears, then looked
back and said:
"Why the gol burned Ford is cnug-
ging right ahead. Exchange.

Maintenance collected in 1914 W
.$25,157.24

This means that out of $4,000 acres
against which 1914 maintenance of SOC
per acre was levied, something over
$4,000 acres paid and something over
10000 did not pay. On account of the
large amount of maintenance uncol-
lected, and on account of the an
nouncement by the bondholders' COM
mittee that no further advances would
be made by them for the purpose of
carrying on the operation of the canal
company it was necessary to increase
the maintenance charge for 1915; it
being certain that not all of the stock
holders would make prompt payment
Of the 1915 maintenance charge 1t
was, however, figured that with the in
crease of 10c per acre in the mainten-
ance charge, enough would be paid to
provide funds necessary for the pay
ment of wages to employees and nee
essary operating expenses.-Holliste
