TURKEYS GIVEN FREE RANGE
Two Broods In One Flock Are Easy to

When two turkey hens with broods
Of about the same age are turned out

main in one flock, and this makes 1t
easier to hunt them up and care for
them. 1t is not good plan to have

"The summer climate of Southern
California is no accident. 1t is pro
duced in definite manner, by per-
manent causes. In the interior of
California, across these mountain
ranges. are great deserts. The air
above the deserts is naturally very
clear. The sun strikes the ground,
which is unprotected by grass or
shrubbery, with great force The
soil, or sand, becomes intensely hot.
This heats a great column of air,
which arises.
ITO place this tremendous volume
of heated air, there is drawn in. ex-
actly as stove does draw in cool
air its base, a corresponding tremen-
dous volume of air from out of the
ocean. The ocean air is cool, pure,
moderately laden with moisture. The
word balmy exactly fits the breezes
which blow from the Pacific across
Los Angeles and the adjoining beach
eS.
when the sun goes down, the i'm
mense "stove' of the desert cools. The
ascending columns of air are stopped.
From the mountain heights all about
US the cool Alpine draughts descend
to the valleys and we have the cool,
clear, dewy nights-as delightful in
their way "a the days.
There is not a place on the Pa
cifc Coast, except this, where the
mountains do not closely follow the
coast line. From Santa Monica TO
Balboa. except for the slight ele-
walton Of the Palo Verde hills, the air
currents from the ocsan have full
sweep along the surface of the
ground.
Hundreds Of thousands Of people
in the United States already think Of

from the cold discomforts Of winter
Each year, tens Of thousands Of peo-
pie discover that this is after all the

$4,000 WORTH OF
PRODUCE SHIPPED
Much Money in Banks and More Com
ing In-More Money In Lafayette
County Than Ever Known Before.

Within the last two weeks more
than $4,000 worth of hogs, cattle,
cattle, corn, sorghum and soghum seed
and peas have been shipped from Ok
ford. This looks good to those who
have heretofore been used to doing
without money at this season of the
year, and coming to town and max
ing mortgage" or giving a deed of
trust for supplies to make a crop on.
1t is good for the farmers. They do
not have to buy on credit. They are
reading the newspapers and becoming
more educated on ways to make
money. They never bring an empty
wagon TO town, they always bring
something to sell.
Most of our farmers are in better
financial condition than ever before
The merchant is the one who will
soon be knocking on the back door of
the farmers kitchen, and asking for
"hand-out." They seem to be in the
class of the back number, now. and
many of them will be, unless they re-
sort to more approved and up-to date
methods of conducting their business.
At one time, the merchant was in
dependent, he did not have to ask the
farmer TO trade with him, nor did he
have to advertise. On the contrary
the farmer was running after the mer-
chant TO get credit-supplies to run
on. That time has changed now. and
if the merchant expects to reach the
farmer and enjoy his confidence and
trade. he viii have to go to him with a
nicely worded advertisement every
week, telling the farmer what he has
and what he is asking for it-and why
the farmers will received better bar
gains and better goods by trading
with him-show the farmer your bust
ness method, show 20 him how you are
enabled TO sell cheaper by advertising
than you could by not advertising
the advertised merchant is enabled 10
understell the un-advertised merchant
every time and on everything. for the
advertised merchant is turning his
goods into money three or four times
as fast as the un-advevtised merchant,
thereby reducing his overhead ex-
penses far below the merchant whose
goods remain on the shelves until the
cost of investment has caused him to
charge larger profit to keep going.
The farmer i wise to advertised goods
or else YOU would never hear of a
mail order house They undersell the
local merchant because Of several rea-
sons and the main one is they ad-
vertise their goods and create de-
mand for them, which enables them to
turn their goods into money faster
than the man who waits and believes
the people know him-of course they
know him and like him-but il Is up
TO him TO create a demand for his
goods which viii enable him TO sell
faster thereby serving his customers
cheaper than he could otherwise
otherwise the farmer buys a postoffice
money order and send TO the people
who want his business and are willing
to sell a little cheaper to get it-they
advertise and are thereby enabled TO
sell rhaaner

THE results have been good
enough to say that the hub does
al that it is intended to do. The
three features Of the hub are. the

hub and the fact that the hub in a
wheel can be changed from one

quickly. The rubber in the hub. Is
