WISE DOCTOR

For weeks she had been ailing. AT
last the poor husband willing to as
sumo the expense rather than suffer
the suspense summoned the eminent
physician.
The doctor viewed her tongue with
alarm. He slandered the action of
her pulse. He asked all the uues-
tions in the catechism of medical
lore.
Sir said the eminent pillist, your
wife needs a change The poor man
bowed his head In his hands and al
lowed two large tear drops to race to
the tip OF his nose and dive off.
What sort Of change, doctor%
Her poor nerves have finally civ
en- way under the strain Of listening
to the same old talking machine rec
ords. Buy her some new ones and
we'll soon have her on her feet. !" The
man nodded.
Then the great doctor left the un-
happy home, hurried to a telephone
and calling up the phonograph place,
told them to be on the look out for
s1nallish' brohsh looking man with
a pale bald head who would be in

CALLS II. V. BROKAW COUNTY'S
MOST SUCCESSFUL BERRY MAN

That H V. Brokaw is the most
successful berry raiser in Whatcon
County is the statement made this
week by the Everson Valley Home.
Mr. Brokaw resides between Lynden
and Everson, and sold his berries
this year to the Lynden Cannery.
Says the Everson paper:
we believe H. V. Brokaw is the
most successful berry raiser in the
county and all the information that
he has CLEANED from the experience
he has had should be impaired to
those who are starting at the game.
H. V. has retired from active farming
but we notice when the berry season
is on, or when some psychological
moment comes for something to be
done at the berry patch. he is always
on hand to direct the work, and the
results show that he has acquired
the knack of growing the red rasp-
berry. The past season his berries
netted $500 per acre above all ex-
penses and his yield, despite the fact
that this was a rather dry year was
only one ton under that of last year.
HE has added an additional five
acres to his already large patch and
it will not be long before his entire
farm is growing the red berries"
