JERSEYS DOUBLED
PURCHASE MONEY
Calf Club Members Profit from In
vestment in Blooded Stock.

The auction sale of the members of
the Jersey Calf Club at Carthage,
according to report in the Weekly
Kansas City Star, brought them
double the money they paid for their
cattle.
Continuing the article says" In
February of last year three of the
club members went to Northeastern
Ohio and purchased lit head, ranging
in age from small calves to 2-year-
olds. A few of the heifers dropped
calves within a short time after this.
The total cost Of the purchase was
$8,OOS.77, and average of $64,45 a
head. The original plan included a
sale of the herd, which would give
every club member a chance to dis
pose of his stock, and that was the
reason for holding the recent sale at
Carthage, fifteen months after the
time the purchase was made.
The number of heifers and their
increase in the sale was 113, but that
did not include all the original herd
nor all their increase. They had a
few losses, some small calves were
not put in the sale and few had been
disposed at private sale. The total
amount received at the sale was $16,-
891, and average of $149.48 a head,
but ten head had been sold two on
three months ago for total of S1,115.
This makes a total Of S17,906 besides
the money received for few others,
of which it has not been possible TO
get complete information. Included
in the average were number Of
small calves, some of them only q
few days old"
The Central State Bank of Monet
is organizing live stock club and il
the members desire to put on a
dairy calf project it will be glad to
include such a project in the club.
Those interested in securing dairy
stock or in advancing the interest of
dairying in this community should
communicate with the bank without
delay. O5tj

UNITED STATES TIRE NEWS

Tires are SO important, a part of
the equipment of an automobile that
the experienced motorist does not
care to lose his money or his temper
making experiments. He buys tires
that have proved their worth after
years Of testing, and leaves it to
others to shoulder the expense of
trying out the novelties that come
and 60.
It is in this fact that the United
States Tire Company nnds the ex-
PLANTATION for its steadily mounting
sales among those who want good
tires.
Present day efficiency demands
that the automobile owner keep
caoDfur account of his costs and that
he know the exact performance of
each tire. 1t is among this class
of buyers that the United States Tire
Company finds its best customers.
Many large corporations, which have
reduced their tire buying to science
and place their orders where they
get they get the most service for the
money, use United States Tires ex-
clusively.
