The Farmington times. (Farmington, St. Francois County, Mo.) 1905-1926, 1918-12-06

The storage battery establishment
of Wines & Son has been moved to
the west side of the square, adjacent
to Burnette's Meat Market, where
they have much better building, as
well as better location, and where
they will be able to give their large
number of patrons even more salts
factory service than they have in the
past.
James A. Ballard, who for the past
several years has been representing
the Brown Shoe Co. as travelling sales
man, but who for several months past
has been in training camp in st. Louis,
spent few days here last week min
Cling with friends in his old home.
Jimmy" presents very soldierly ap-
pearance in his regimentals. He ex-

high as salesman.

Mr.. and Mrs. Marvin Williams ar
rived Tuesday for brief visit with
their parents, Mr.. and Mrs. ]. c. Will
ilams. Mr.. Williams has been in mil
itary service for the past sixteen
wears, and is now master electrician at
Scott Field, Bellville, ILL.,, having had
several hundred workmen under him,
as that department is the most i'm
rortant establishment in any aviation
| field. While active operations have
been abandoned at Scott Field, Mr..
| Williams services are still required
there, as the Government has millions
Of dollars worth of property there
that must be looked after.
The Times is sorry to announce that
L. T. McCarver, that splendid citizen
now living in Fiat River, Monday
morning received a message from
Washington, D. c., stating that his
son, Private Charles F. McCarver,
had been wounded on Sept. 28th, and
advised that further information
would be forwarded soon as received.
Since then "Tim" has been putting
forth every energy to discover how
severely his boy was injured, but has
failed absolutely to receive further in
formation. Furthermore, the unusu-
al slowness of this information is very
unsatisfactory to the McCarver fam
lily and many friends of Charles Nc
Carver, who fervently trust that the
wound was not serious.
Ground bone is one OF the best egg
producers on the market, and with
eggs selling at 60c dozen and up
ward, the maximum egg production
is certainly worth an effort. You
can get Fresh Ground Bone at sc a
pound at Bethel's Cash Meat Market.
| Lieut.. Carl Trauernicht arrived
Monday from Camp Pike, Ark, car
rying with him his commission as well
as his discharge from active service,
though he will be subject to the call
of Uncle Sam for five years. Many
| friends will not he surprised to learn
that Carl made a splendid record in
the officers training camp, only
about one-half of whom secured COM
missions. While Lieutenant Carl, like
practically all others-officer as
well as privates--who were in the va
rious environments, was exceedingly
anxious to have the privilege of "going
across" he Says he has no regret
that he had chance to go as far as
he did, as the value of the training re-
ceived was almost inestimable.
If you are trying to conserve or pro-
4 oh
to give your chickens plenty of Fresh
Ground Bone, as it is not only most
healtLful, but is also one of the best
egg producers there is, and egg pro-
duction, with the prices ranging from
Coo a dozen and upward, is certainly
worth your while. Fresh Ground
Bone is cheap--only SC the pound at
Bethels Cash Meat Market.
