HOW TO keep YOUR
BATTERY Charged
Willard Storage Battery Co.
Has Educational Mea-
sure at Service Stations

The owner OF a modern motor car
is often heard to ask, How can
keep my battery charged? My lamps
burn dim and the starter is weak"
In great many cases this COM
plant is due TO the fact that the
owner does not drive his car sufii-
ciently without the lights burning or
the starter being operated to generate
enough current so that the battery
will supply the demand OF the lights
and the starter when necessary.
This is especially true among the
class of car owners who drive short
distances daily. using their starting
motor considerably and not putting
back into the battery the same
amount of current they take out.
Then they drive their cars at night
with the lights burning, and often
times let their cars stand at the curb
with the motor dead and the lights
still burning and using current from
the battery.
According to the willard Storage
Battery Company this Is being over
come TO some extent through the edu-
cational measures which have been
adopted by their service stations
throughout the country. In every cast
possible. the car owner Is instructed
in the proper care. as well as opera
ton Of his entire electrical system, Sc
that he will know why he is doinl
certain things.
Every car owner must remember
that il is necessary TO drive at is Il
20 miles an hour to generate enough
current to effect the battery to an!
extent. A well cared for battery Il

Preparedness FIRST
FOR AUTOMOBILE Racers

When the elimination trials are held
prior to the big racing classics. the
speed boys who pilot the cars are
overlooking no bets in the matter Of
making sure that their cars are prop
erly tuned-up. in order that they may
qualify for the big dolngs.
That's the reason they use Dixon's
Graphite Automobile Lubricants. and
thereby keep their cars practically
friction-free. And pretty nearly all OF
those who qualify use Dixon's. While
the winners and near-winners In the

EXCESSIVE RATES CHARGED ON
FARM LOANS

The Federal Farm Loan board of Wash
ington, d. c., which has been making a
tour Of the country to ascertain the feel
ings of farmers and business men toward
the new government system of farm loans,
reports that it found interest being charg-
ed on farm properties ranging from five
per cent per annum to sixty per cent.
It claims that the need for the federal
farm loan law was especially emphasized
by the wide inequalities in interest rates
disclosed in hearings, and by the fact that
even where interest rates of five or six per
cent year were charged, additional com
missions were exacted, ranging from fiat
rate of one to three per cent year on
losses.
It was shown in every state visited that
industrious farmers Of modest means, who
could offer unquestionably good security.
were unable to get farm credit on any
reasonable terms.

WAR is HE'LL"

The Houston Post, in speaking of the
awful carnage on the European battle
fields Of today, says:
The soldiers of the North and the
South had no conception Of the meaning
of the words, War and He'll But the
soldier fighting in Europe today knows,
and the nightmare that he is living through
will remain in his mind to blight the com
ing children of Europe, even to the third
and fourth generation. y
This statement is made in face of the
fact that General Grant said in his
Memoirs, that after the first day S fighting
at Pittsburg Landing the dead and wound
ed lay so thickly over large portion Of
the field that man could walk for long
distance, stepping each time on body.
Macmillan Harden, the brilliant Ger
man editor, in a recent article, said:
What we are living through is so in
eXpressibly atrocious that no dream Of
Satan has ever evoked anything compar-
able with it. Things are happening bill
lions of times more horrible than all the
murders committed since the days Of Cain
and of the savagery Of the naked Huns. :"

PRESSING FORWARD TO
join PIG CLUBS
Boys from All Over Marion County
Taking Advantage of the Public
Spirit of the Banks

There has been rush of boys from
all parts of the county to join the
boys pig club, for which the banks
recently appropriated S1,075. R. w.
Blackjack, the county demonstration
agent, who will have charge of the
work of the club, has enlisted SO boys
and expects to have more.
Some of the boys have agreed to
purchase their own pig. Mr.. Black
lock says that any boy whose parents
will provide him with pig can be-
come member of the club. The num-
Der of boys who can be provided with
pigs out of the bankers fund is, of
course, limited. The breed of hog
that will be used has not yet been de-
cided on. The farmers of the county
who have been seen by Mr.. Blackjack
express themselves as willing to ac-
cept any standard breed selected,
with view to standardizing the hogs
of the county and making this section
famous for one breed.
A meeting of the pib club boys will
be held in the board of trade rooms
here July 5, when the work will be
outlined and talks made to the boys.
There will probably be present one
or two experts from the government
experiment station in Gainesville.
