to arrive and when the warehouse
bell rings it's loud peals Tuesday
morning, calling together all our
buyers to meet face to face around the
golden weed of good old Robson
county, as we'll as other counties bor-
dering on our market, the prices we
,yill get for their tobacco will gladden.
the hearts Of the many farmers who
may be lucky enough to have tobacco
on our sales that day.
Owing to so many of the compan-
les buyers being drafted IN the ser
vice Of our country and so many new
men having to be placed on the mar
kets as buyers, we feel that the Far
mont market IS indeed lucky in having
all of its old buyers sent back to US
again.
This is good news to the farmers, as
they all realize the importance OF
this. Our market was never IN a
better position TO serve the tobacco
growers than at present We have
ample warehouse facilities to take
care of and handle nicely the largest
sales. plenty of labor to handle Jou1

Liniments Will Never Cure.

If you are afflicted with Rheuma-

lotions and other local applications
that never did cure rheumatism, and
never will?
Do not try to rub the pain away,
for you will never succeed. Try the
sensible plan Of finding the cause of
the pain, and go after that. Remove
the cause, and there can be no pain.

If it is not possible to attend every drill, attendance of at least four nights per month will be compulsory, other wise the name of the delinquent will be dropped from the rolls.
 At the meeting yesterday, nearly every man who had signed the rolls was out, and several new members signed up. As there are large number more who are thinking of joining, the company will reach well over the hundred mark
 At yesterdays meeting, the pre- vious experience of every man pres ent was ascertained for the purpose of helping the officers pick the non. commissioned officers for the com pany.

MT. E. s. Hewitt will be our Alaska manager, and will carry full line of new model machines. We will open and maintain also, a com pletely equipped mechanical service station, in charge of factory train ed expert.

CHANGE IN WORKING DAY
 SCHEDULE OF RED CROSS

The working schedule of the local Red Cross has hitherto consisted of Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Sat urday afternoons, and Monday even ing. This wide range of working periods was arranged in order to give busy housewives as much latitude as possible in the matter of fitting Red Cross work into their own working plans at home. After trial of this schedule the chairman of Military Relief and the instructors at the work rooms have come to the con- clusion that it will now be possible to eliminate Saturday afternoon, thus bringing each of the other working periods up to full capacity, and at the same time securing greater econ. omy of time and effort.
 Consequently, Saturday hereafter will not be included in the work day schedule at the local Red Cross work rooms, and the regular program will consist of work periods on Tuesday. Thursday, and Friday afternoons, and Monday evening.
