The people of Dolores are to be con-
graduated upon winning this helmet
Not because the helmet is a thing of
beauty in itself or that in its original
use it represented anything good or
noble. The chances are that it was
worn by some cowardly brute whose
war record could not be printed in
plain English without violating Uncle
Sans postal laws. However, it now
represents the patriotism of the citizens
of Dolores and vicinity and the efficiency
of the Dolores banks. The benefit that
a town or community derives by its

so as to prevent future wars. If we

Farmer as Business Man Needs Adver.
Using.
The farmer of today is business
man, just as much as the banker, the
clothier, the grocer, the hardware
dealer and the real estate dealer.
AS busines man he can profitably
use newspaper advertising, not so gen
orally nor on such large scale as his
fellow business man in the trades, but
he can profitably use it to a limited
degree, and much more than he now
does.
Suppose he has dozen pigs that
would make good breeders, and which
he wants to turn into cash. If he will
advertise them in his local newspaper,
using display space of, say, inches
double column, and set his price at
what the pigs are worth as breeders
he will realize much more from the
pigs than if he took them to town and
sold them for pork.
And the best part of it is, he can sell
them this way without leaving his
farm and his work for half day.
