LEND ME YOUR EARS!
BY The Day Book
Why, howde, Mister Reader,
You're feeling well? That's fine!
Please lend your ears a minute,
while
I drop you just line.
When running through the papers,
you
May absent-minded read.
And never stop to figure me,
The Day Book. Yes, indeed.
I can name a lot of reasons why
I'm right up in the run, and
Why you ought to read me when
Your daily work is done.
My types a little larger than
In any sheet you'll find.
You can read my neWsy items,
though
You may be nearly blind.
MY size is right convenient, you
Can read me in the car, and
Rustic through the pages, yet
Not spread your arms out far.
1 carry all the items in
The news world every day.
You'll find no ads within me,
Am free to have my say.
I don't play any faVOrites,
Folks look alike to me.
7 carry all the items in
The news world as they be.
My aim is just to reach you with
The things that come and go.
If there's anything of interest that
Is missing, let me know.
If you're not a steady reader,
Get the habit-join the thrOng.
If you are a steady reader, tell
Your friends-boost me along!
Thank You!

MONKEYS AND CHILDREN.-I
see by the papers that Cy De Vry is
going to be kept in charge of the
Lincoln Park zoo at a salary of
$4,000 a year. Good! We ought to
take care of the little monkeys. It
is very important to look out for
the baby giraffe, the polar bear and
the long-tailed cockatoo. If we want
the animals in the zoo to be looked
after we've got to pay a good man to
do it It is easy to find poor men
for poor pay, but good man will be
wanted somewhere else. The ami
mails are entitled to good, wise, hui
name care, and De Vry is the man
to give it to them. If he were not
he would not have been offered
$500 by the Selig company.
Let's make some comparisons.
The teachers of the Chicago public
schools get $675 per year after
spending from Is to II years in
study and preparation. After II
years experience they receive a sal
airy of $3.50 per year.
Oh, yes! Let's take care of the
monkeys!
The doctors who are supposed to
protect the children from contagious
diseases and see that their surround
ings are conducive to good health
get $40 per month for working part
time in school. The nurses get $40.

and be he my worst enemy would
defend him.
It is revolving to every fair and
honest thinking person who. read
the daily papers except the News
and Herald for nearly a week about
the Austin minister. See how they
assassinated his character and every
shred of decency he ever had. To
read the coIored news and not know

he was a bad man, which is not
true.
Instead of trying to help him out
of trouble they did their best to
drive him out of his church, ruin
him mentally and physically, and
nearly drove him to self-destruction
That they are guilty of doing this, as
well as breaking up homes, no one

OUR CITY HAz; MADE
WONDERFUL STRIDES
her Public Buildings Good Streets, Modern Fire Fighting Equip
menf, Beautiful "Whfe Way" and Public Park
Go TO Show Her Real Advancement

Union is one of the prosperous
smaller cities of the State. Of that
there can be no doubt. AS evidence
that this is so, witness our modern
electric lighting and water plant.
There is not city of any size, large
or small, in the State, that has a more
modern system Of lighting. Nor is
there one in the State that has a better
water supply. There is not another
city its size that has more miles of
cement pavement. Union has twenty
five miles of such sidewalks. That is
good for a population, within the cor
porate limits, of 5000. Our recently
installed fire alarm system is one of
the very latest and best systems ever
devised. 1t is the Gamewell system,
and works admirably.
Our fire-fghting equipment is one
of the very best in the State. The
recent movement by which the city
has four regular paid firemen, and by
which the volunteer call men receive
part pay, together with the splendid
electric fire truck gives to Union fire
protection second to none.
Unions public buildings, her post
office, free library, modern and we'll
equipped school buildings, handsome

to prove that Union citizens have faith
in Unions future.
The city park, which is one of Mayor
Wharton's pet schemes, is demonstrat
ing the value of the movement. The
park has been greatly improved. The
large swimming pool, the ball grounds.
the comfortable benches and swings
placed at convenient distances, make
the park a much sought after place.
Recently commodious grandstand
has been erected and seats provided
for about 500 people. The public
gatherings, political and otherwise.
will be held in this park in the fu-
ture. This park idea has taken a
strong hold upon the public mind and
is proving valuable asset of the city.
Since the dispensary has been
closed, conditions have very materially
improved as to obedience to law. The
Police court shows about Is per cent
decrease in the number of cases be-
fore the mayors court
Union is a progressive, an ORDERLY
and attractive city. 1t is good
place in which to live; it is a good

STOCK RAISING IN THE SOUTH.

Washington, D. c., July 22.-Pres-
ident Harrison, of Southern Railway
Company, has directed attention TO
a statement prepared by Mr.. W. F.
Ward, senior animal husbandman in
the United States Agricultural De.
partment, summarizing the7results OF
investigations made by the depart
ment into the cost of growing beet
cattle in different localities in the
United States.
These Investigations were carried
on in the so-called corn belt states
of Indiana, Illinois, Minnesota, Iowa.
Missouri, South Dakota, Nebraska
and Kansas, in Pennsylvania IN
north Alabama, and in west Ala.
bama. In each case every possible
charge was made against the cattle
including not only all feed but also
labor, equipment, taxes, risk, depre,
citation, veterinary fees and interest,"
at six per cent on the investment
The Abbeville press and banner. [volume] (Abbeville, S.C.) 1869-1924, 1916-07-26

and against each calf was charged
not only the net cost of keeping the
cow but also the cost of the bull per
calf. The final results are all in
, favor of the South.
The average cost per hundred
pounds of raising calf to weaving
time, was s9.1O in the corn belt and
$7.22 in Pennsylvania, as compared
with, 1888 in North Alabama and
1857 in West Alabama.
The average cost per hundred
pounds of raising a calf to twelve to
fifteen months old was $11.79 in the
corn belt and $7.24 in Pennsylvania,
rs compared with $4.41 in north Ala
bama and S4.69 in west Alabama.
The figures for the corn belt, Penn
sylvania and north Alabama are
based on raising calf to the age of
ewelve months and those for West
Alabama to the age of fifteen months
While the Investigations of the
department in the South were carried
on only in localities in north Ala
bama and. west Alabama, conditions
in other parts Of the South, including
the states of Mississippi, the whole of
Alabama, Georgia, northern Florida,
South Carolina, and parts of Tennes-
see and North Carolina are so SINH
lar that the results that were obtain
ed in the Alabama experiments are
indicative of what may be done in
the entire territory and demonstrate
the great advantages of the South
for the production of beef cattle.
The figures compiled by Mr.. Ward
do not cover profits, but it is obvious
that the profits are substantially
larger in the South, and, as pointed
out by President Harrison, even if
the animals should be sold at cost of
production on the basis of Mr..
Wards figures, the farmer would
have returned to him every possible
expenditure of money, pay for his
labor, and six per cent interest on
his investment, and his lands would
be- improved by the manure obtained
from his herd.

 Lubricating oil dissipates. the heat of friction generated by the pistons In the cylinders.

 If an oil of incorrect body is useG it will cause overheating. Incorrect body means that when the oil comes in contact with the hot cylinder walls, its body will partially or wholly break down and allow the metals to come in contact resulting in an excessively high coefficient of friction and possi- ble abrason. Incorrect body also means that if too heavy an oil is used, it will not reach the wearing surface fast enough, and excessive friction will result, which will overheat the motor in addition to causing undue wear"
 Many motor authorities declare, and the experience of the majority of Pacific Coast motorists bears it out, that oil made from western asphalt base crude keeps its lubricating quail ities longer at cylinder heat, and therefore gives bette results
