Here is what Secretary Philips
conservatively says. and his state

crop in Escambia county in the ex-
IRENE northwestern part of the
State, is true in greater degree of a

while this statement may be
true with regard 20 certain of the
Western States. it does not apply
with regard to the South During
the year 1915 there were twenty
five members of the Boys Corn Club
in Escambia county, Florida Each
of these boys farmed a measured
acre of land in various sections of
the county. Accurate accounts of
their expenses and yields are avail
able. and these figures show the
average production OF corn on the
twenty-five acres to have been As 80
bushels and the average cost to
have been A 3 cents per bushel. or

price the Asp bushels would have

DO YOU BUY
new TIRES F.?
Does Every Little Break In the
Casing Mean An Outlay of
Money for YOul

There are many ways in keeping
down the operating expenses Of an
automobile or motorcycle, and one of
them is watching your tires. Some
owners think as soon as the casing
shows little sign of wear it's dang
erous to use it longer and hence they
are complaining about expense. In
Celina, however, damaged tires and
blow-outs are put into first class
shane at the Yulcanizing establish
ment of Furhman Brothers. This
firm will readily show you how vul-
canizing tires will save you many dol
lars. only the best of materials are
used here and the very best of work
turned out, and salts faction is guar
anteed. 1t takes proper equipment
to vulcaniZe tires and competent me-
chanics. Here they have both, for
Thurman Brothers are experts in
their chosen line.
In addition to the vulcanizing
plant they are agents for the famous
Harley-DavidsOn motorcycle, and
have a number of machines on hand
at all times. This is one of the great
est machines of its kind built to-day
and has stood the test of the time
and usage. They also carry a full
line of motorcycle accessories.
The Thurman Brothers are two of
Celina's young and wide-awake busi-
ness men who are adding much to
the town as a business center and
are giving metropolitan service to
the people Of this city and surround
ing country. They would like to see
the city many times its present size.
