G. R. Manning Is Able To Be At
Work Again Since Tanlac Re-
stored Health.

stored Health.
Nothing ever helped me until
I got Tanlac and now l am just
like a man made new" declared
George R. Manning of 1109 North
Monroe avenue, Peoria, Ill, in a
statement at the SutIiff & Case
drug store, recently. Mr. Manning
holds a very important and re-
sponsible position with he P. & P.
U. railroad and is a man of wide
acquaintance and many friends.
My stomach had been in a very
bad fix for IA years or more" he
continued, land panied me so bad
at times that 1 would almost dou-
BILE up. After nearly every meal
would bloat up with gas until 1
was as tight as a drum and Just
suffered agony. My nerves became
all shattered and my health got so
poor that l was forced to quit
work. No kind of medicines help
ed me and finally l went under
special treatment but kept going
down hill rapidly.
While talking to a good friend
one day about my deplorable con-
dition, he told me he believed a few
bottles of Tanlac would straighten
me up. Well, I had little faith in
the medicine to help me, but as my
friend insisted and seemed to
know what he was talking about.
decided to take his advice. So
I got me a bottle of Tanlac and
both to my surprise and gratifica-
ton by the time I had finished tax
ing it the gas had stopped forming
on my stomach and l was in shape
to where I could eat and enjoy my
meals. My food began to digest
as it should, the nervousness be-
gan to leave me and I could tell
that l was on the road to recovery.
AS l continued taking Tanlac l
kept improving until now my
strength has returned and am
able to work as well as | ever
could in my life. ] feel grateful
beyond words to express for what
Tanlac has done for me and avn
telling my friends when they want
a medicine they can depend on for
results to get Tanlac. I can't
praise it too highly and expect to
rely on it in the future to keep me
in the good health l now enjoy"

to the officer. The air has already

Everything is in favor of Rock

it doesn't jump in and prepare to
reap the harvest" he added.

sired. He sated that the attendance

NAMED QUITS MELONS

]. F. Quit has a new variety of
watermelon. Last week when the
hremen from the states convention
at Ordway visited Fowler. Mr.. Quit
invited them to his melon patch. He
also asked them to name the new va
rfety. and after having sampled a
sufficient number to enable them to
get fair taste, they suggested the
name "Flameoutt." Nothing is more
pleasing to a firemen than to send in
the fire out" signal. after the flames
have been extinguished. And since
the new variety OF melon originated
with Mr.. Quit, they conceived the
"Flameoutt"-a happy combination
of flame" and "Outt" The firemen
were delighted with the hospitality
extended them by our citizens and as
sured Mr.. Quit they long would re-
member him and his luscious melons.

Club Outlines
theMoneyPlan

Members of the Ordway Publicity
Club had luncheon at the Foley
last Friday noon at which time more
than twenty enjoyed the luncheon
and delved into some local subjects
of general interest. The luncheon
was primarily for the consideration
of plan to raise the money for pur-
! chasing and installing the white
way lamp posts. A definite plan was
outlined and a committee appointed,
composed of e. w. Downey, VIM.
Edgar and NJ. T. Nelson, to proceed
with the raising of the money on the
subscription plan basis.
The white-way work is proceeding
by the widening Of the sidewalks on
Main street and putting in the gutter.
The cost of widening the walks is
charged to the property owners af-
fected, but the lamp posts will have
to be purchased by popular subscrip-
tion. The posts have been ordered
and will be here in ABOUT six weeks.
In the meantime the walk extensions
the cable laid ready for the posts.
1t is believed that by the early part
of November the whole white-way
system will be in operation.
Property owners can hardly claim
that by paying for the widening of
the sidewalks they are doing their
share for this would nave been done
regardless of a whlte-way. 1t had
been decided three or four years ago
that the walks on Main street would
have to be widened, and that would
have been done long ago had It not
been for the proposed white-way. II
was the unanimous decision of the
council a couple OF years ago that
inasmuch as II was likely that
new lighting system would be in
stalled that the widening of the walks
be left undone for a reasonable period
of time so that in the event a white
way was to be put In the cable could
be laid at the time the walks were
extended. For this reason only the
property owners were allowed the
delay. So in fact the widening of
the sidewalks, the cost OF 1t at least.
has nothing to do with the white-way.
1t was to be done regardless of this.
Another thing Of community in
terest brought up at the club lunch
con was the matter OF a camping
ground for tourists. A committee
composed of D. F. Bartlett. DR.. Hugh
F. Lorfmer, e. p. johnson, M. e.
Bashor and E. B. Strickland was ap-
pointed to take this matter in hand
and secure a location.

Home Run
for Sugar City

About four volumes of a good siz-
ed book might be written about the
big ball game here last Sunday in
which there was but one run made
and that "home-run" by Sugar
City. The fans in larger numbers
than had previously gathered to wit
ness some of the contests were on
hand to see the final game of the
series. But the game failed to be
played because the manager of the
Sugar City team, R. A. Hamilton.
refused to let his men go in, claiming
that Ordway had two many men from
Coblenze, Germany. and other near
by points. He might have played
under protest and. contested the game
afterwards. and avoided the specta-
tors disappointment. but he didn't.
The game was forfeited to Ordway
and thereby Ordway Is the pennant
winner in the Crowley County Base
Ball league for this season. Two of
the three-game series had been play
ed, each of the teams winning one.
The Misses Bell and Linda Gal
lavan entertained at their home Fri
day evening at party in honor OF
Miss Marie Bass.
The following were present:

THE FENCE POST.

National Crop improvement Service1
Millions of tons of barbed wire plain
wire and woven wire fences, are hung
on posts and every year adds six to sew
en- hundred thousand additional tons.
The depreciation caused by the rot
ting, breaking and burning of wooden
fence posts, is tax which should be
eliminated. OF the woods available
for replacing the enormous number OF
posts, more than half will last only
two years at best, when set in the
ground. Sycamore, Black Gum, Vel
low Poplar and Birch, are almost a
total loss in that time. Sweet Gum,
Pin Oak, Maple and Pine are nearly
as bad. Locust is little better and
Cedar, Beech, and Chestnut are per-
haps the best.
A cedar post in a dry climate Will
last eight or ten years. A good red
cedar or "boa'd'arc" post will last
much longer.
Very few men know that the most
durable post is from a tree cut at
maturity and before decay starts; or
that while the tree Is full of sapwood,
the heartwood is soft. The best posts
are cut in the dead of the winter. They
should not be piled upon the ground
or where they are likely to become
wet.
The fife of n post may be heightened
If treated by coating with tar, dipping
in paint, injecting creosote, ETC., but
at best the wooden fence post is a
poor proposition.
About thirty years ago, a start was
made to secure posts from some other
material, and iron and steel were put
to rigid test. Galvanized steel posts
have been in use about twenty years,
and as rule are still doing duty.
Many of them have been examined
and found to be in first-class condi-
ton.
Serviceable posts may also be made
Of concrete.
