MauSO|eUm Information
This is Your Town
Be Cautious

The definition of the word eau
tious is. prudent, watchful against
danger, wary; if you were buying a
horse you would be watchful against
spavlns and other defects that makes
the buying of such an animal so
hazardous. If you were buying a
farm, you would exercise great eau
ton as to the title, to see that all
mortgages had been released and no
leins OF any kind against it. A
cautious person is one who enters in
to no contract unless he knows he
will get full value received, making
minute investigation befre entering
into a binding contract. Have the
people of Wauseon and vicinity made
any inquiry as to the WORTH of the
mausoleum proposition that is being
promoted in our town? Is there
any one of you that know of build
ing that is permanent? The word
permanent means, durable, lasting,
without change. There have been
several of these buildings erected in
Ohio and other states and it would
seem to be a wise thing to find out
if they were satisfactory to the peo-
pie who were beguiled into buying
what was put up to them to be cheap?
This proposed structure may stand
up for five, ten or fifteen years with
out showing great deterioration, but
in the end you know (or ought to
know that there will surely cor..o
time when there will have to pc
repairs made; When this happens
you will wonder what will become
of your dear ones you entrusted to
the security? of the everlasting?
edifice that was promised you Any
building that is without heat and
built as fimsy as the one that may
look good to you on paper, can't en-
dure either as to sanitation or per-
nancy; You know this if you take
sober second thought. We are
prepared to give information about
Mausoleums that have proved to be
utter failures; four ffths of them
are menace to the good health and
temper of the community; do you want
to take chance On the ONE FIFTH ?
We have the means and the back
ing to substantiate the assertions
we have made, and to those who seek
to be cautious, if we can't prove to
you beyond the possibility of a doubt
that an investment in a mausoleum
built as they propose to build, is the
greatest folly, we will pay all ex-
penses Of travel and entertainment

SUMMARY OF
CROP CONDITIONS

Wheat prospects are now estimated
at IS per cent. compared with an
average, decline of per cent. since
the report issued by this department,
April 1st. The past month with its
excessive cold rains has been most
severe on the wheat plant. Cores
pondents generally note its unpromis-
ing condition and in many sections of
the State a large percentage of the
original area seeded will be, or has
been plowed up and put to other
crops. The Northwest section seems
to have suffered the most, the present
condition being but 48 per cent. of an
average. The damage reported by
Hessian fly and other insects is of
little consequence. AS the original
area seeded was below a good aver
age, and deducting from this the area
that will be plowed up, Ohio's wheat
harvest this year will necessarily be
far below full average crop.
The unfavorable weather of the
past month has seriously retarded
farm work and spring crops will go
in late.
The township assessors reports
show that last year the oats area was
1,384,831 acres. The correspondents
estimate that the area seeded to oats
this year compared with last is 95 pei
j; cent. or 1920, ,038 acres. These figures
are probably low, as no doubt man!
correspondents have based their esti
mates on the amount now sown, with
out considering the many fields in
tended for oats, but owing to the un
D favorable weather conditions it ha
been impossible to seed. A create
, part of the plowed up wheat area vii
: be sown to oats, although if the sea
: son continues backward it will b
planted to corn.
; In some sections clover and alfalf
are reported as badly frozen.
Live stock generally is in good con
, dition and the losses during the Win
; ter have been very slight.
: The prospects for fruit is estimate
: at 88 per cent. compared with a
average. Berries 92 per cent. Man
: correspondents report peaches badl
winter killed.

Which Do You Prefer?

It is important for reasons of health and
practical economy for every housekeeper
to ask herself this question:
do prefer pure baking powder like
Royal, made of cream of tartar derived from
grapes, or am I willing to use baking
powder made of alum or phosphate, both
derived from mineral sources?"
The names Of the ingredients printed
on the label show whether the kind you
are now using or any brand, new or old,
that may be offered is a genuine cream
of tartar powder, or merely phosphate
or alum compound.
