A Set Of Perfect Teeth Is
a Priceless Possession!

But unfortunately
very few people are

possession.
But in this day

very little excuse
for anyone to con-
tinue to have bad
teeth. Dental serv-

Well, sir, the wind blowed scandalous
for 10 days and nights hand running.
When it finally let up Jim went out
to look for his pillow and blamed if
the hull field wasn't plowed as COM
plete as any field you ever saw. The
thing that seemed mighty curious to
him was that the burrows all run in
a circle. At first he couldn't see moth
ing of his pillow, but finally he found it
in the center of the field and then he
saw how it was. The wind had bowed
that pillow right round and round the
field as the wind kept changing d.
rection until it had plowed up the
whole blamed hundred acres. Never
missed foot Jim sat down and fig
ured up that the wind had done at
east $3.50 worth of work for him

HOLDERS of Liberty Bonds are be-
ing advised not to sell them, but
selling goes on, and good investors are
picking them up at bargain prices,
Market reports last week showed Az
per cent Liberty Loan bonds of the
Fourth Liberty Loan selling in New
York at 81. At that price the investor
gets more than Az per cent net on
his money, tax free. Now let us see
what investment in Liberty Bonds Mt
such prices promises the speculator.
Ordinarily. before the war, Uncle
Sans bonds sold on 2h per cent
basis. That represented the govern
ment credit. II was on 2h per cent
basis. Surprising that in few years
Uncle Sans credit does roach per
cent basis. This it is morally certain
to do. Then bonds bought today at "a
bearing Az per cent interest, tax
free, will be worth in the marker i40
and will sell at that figure. In other
words, there is no investment to com
pare. taking security and interest re-
turn and speculative advance, with tie

NOTICE TO SUBSCRIBER
CURRENT COMMENT.

THE death Of Theodore Roosevelt
has removed one Of the worlds
greatest men and the greatest Amer
lean since Lincoin's time. For the
greater part Of two decades his inhu-
ence in politics not only in this nation,
but throughout the world, had been
forceful, commanding, impressive. As
president, his quick comprehension, his
grasp Of world politics. his instructive
understanding Of the psychology of
foreign governments and his prompt
and determined action in humorous
serious crises enabled him to make
this nation power for justice in the
world, and to secure it's honor and
prestige, As a private citizen, he
never hexitated TO speak out in no
uncertain tones Of dangers that
threatened. During the war he with
held not his criticism and his fearless
and outspoken denunciation Of dilator-
mess and mistakes had the effect to
improve conditions. That was char
acteristic Of the man. He WAS brave,
unselfshly loyal, intensely American.
His last message was a vigorous APP
peal for strong peace. His death
at this time. when the great issue of
q just and enduring world peace is at
stake and the serious problems Of re-
are to be solved, is an
loss.

THERE should be higher tax on
war profits, During the past eight
years the wealth of the country has
increased from 1877 billion dollars to
$50 billion dollars, and most of this
gain has gone to less than | per cent
OF the population. This war was not
fought TO make billionaires out of mil
lionaires, nor to lay heavy burden
for years upon the workers of Amer
lea. We schould tax wealth accumu-
lated in this war to pay for the war.
Certainly there should be higher tax
on war profits. and it will be sorry
day for congress il it does not heed
the sentiment that is unmistakable
throughout the entire country in this
matter.

Agent Ramirez, who has returned from

II will not be necessary to ship feed
into Stanley and vicinity In as large
quantities as Mr.. Ramirez had antici-
pated Only the larger cattle raisers
suffered losses, Mr.. Ramirez says, and
that was largely due TO their failure
to provide feed In advance. The
county agent suggests that II all such

He suggests beans as a good crop,

FARMING CLASSES AT
MIAMI AND SPRINGER
RICH UP-TO-DATE
SPRINGER HIGH SCHOOL PLACED
IN FRONT RANK OF VOCATION
AL EDUCATION, SAYS SMITH.

Es y. Smith, state supervisor OF ag-
ricultural education, has returned
from Springer and Miami in Colfax
county, where he has been for the past
two weeks for the purpose OF inaug-
urating classes in agriculture in con
nection with the school system. In
Springer full day classes will be held,
while in Miami the work will begin
with night classes, but the equipment
being installed is so complete that it
will be possible to begin full day
work without a minutes delay when
the time is ripe. II Is believed that
day classes will be begun in Miami
no later than next year. The pupils
already are planning to install and
operate a canning factory during the
coming summer.
Mr.. Smith said today:
THE Springer board of education.
by It's farsightedness, has placed its
high school among the foremost In the
country by installing a department Of
vocational agricultural teaching. This
type Of instruction during the past
eight years has proven so successful
that the federal government has felt
II advisable to make possible the in
stallation Of such training In the
schools OF the entire nation by grant
ing federal aid. Vocational agricul-
tural education is not for teaching
theories, but it is intended to give
each student a definite. practical
training in farming or some of the
many lines connected with that trade.
The instructor selected in Springer,
Captain r. G. Hopkins, Is a graduate
of the University Of Illinois and Is a
practical farmer by training, educa-
ton and experience"
