kOTOUC BROTHERS
SELL OLD STOCK

kotouc brothers closed n deal the
first OF the week whereby they dis
pose Of their entire stock of dry goods
and clothing to a gentleman who will
ship the goods to Cleveland, Ohio.
The purchaser was in Raymer !.
few days ago getting prices and Mon
day he came back with boxes to pack
the goods. A force Of men was set
to work boxing up the goods and the
establishment soon looked as II
struck by Kansas cyclone.
This same man has bought several
stocks In this state and Nebraska the
past few months, and we understand
that the goods will be sent to Cleve-
land, where they will be sorted, re-.
novated and sold again to the trade.
Wide awake merchants find that
disposing Of all of their odds and
ends in this way Is a very satisfac-
tory way to clear out all old stock
and to quickly convert goods that
seem to be misfits in the community
into working capital for goods more
desirable for that field.
Mr.. K0touc retains his grocery de-
partment, the shoes, work shirts and
oyeralls, so that in these departments
you are still able to secure the usual
service.
You will have to wait a time for
selection Of ready made mems cloth

LOOK OUT, BILL, HE
MAY NOT Be GENTLE

1t was reported at Stoneham yes
terday that a group Of scientists from
Denver had discovered the skeleton
of huge prehistoric animal imbedd-
ed in the clay banks about sixteen
miles north OF that town. The bones
are said to resemble those of the COW
species. but the animal was four or
five times larger than the largest Of
the kind now known. The molar
teeth discovered are about three
inches across. and the animal had
four horns. The men are carefully
removing all bones, and they will
doubtless be removed to some mu-
scum, and assembled In the position
they were originally. Then the
1earnedu men will draw a picture
OF the animal as 1t must have looked,
and when we gaze upon the crea-
.. ..ure's terrible appearance. we will
Do glad we live in the age Of moth
ing more dangerous than world wars.

The above is the statement y hich
the secretary is supposed to publish
by the goth OF July each year. We
saw none Published by that time for
the simple reason that 1t was an iin-
possibility to do so.
The above report meets the re-
quirements of law, but 1t CONVEYS but
little OF valuable information to read
ers about the actual financial ,ondi-
tion OF the district.
1t varies from any report that can
be made at the May meeting for the
reason that the end of the year var
les. For instance In March the levy
for the 1919 is reported, while the
collection given In the above report
covers the last half of the 1917 and
the first half Of the 1918 tax. The
above report also covers only the
money paid in, and does not take
into account the delinquent tax.
Sometimes much more than half OF
the tax is paid in the spring, some
times much less.
The matter OF ammouts paid out In
the above statement needs explana-
tion to be OF real value to the read
er. The report gives the cash BOOK,
as IL were, OF the district, but it does
not give the warrants drawn. Where
warrants are registered, the differ
ent years get mixed in such way
that the cash account is of no value
in trying to find out the condition OF
the district.
For instance the above report
shows only $3,7o2 paid teachers,
which is not half the amount OF war
rants drawn last year for teachers.
Fuel and current expenses, includ-
es drivers. and Is probably a little
below the actual amount of the war
rants drawn during the year for
these purposes
With the application OF the bond
proceeds to payment Of the warrants.
the statements a year from nov will
show the disposition of those 'unds
together with the tax collected, and
then being upon pay as yon-go bas-
III, these statements will show the ac-
tual expenses Of each school year.

BIG FOOD SUPPLY NEGLECTED.
Writer Points Out How Great Savings
Might Be Effected BY Cultiva-
ton of Certain Trees.

Nuts are the best of all tree crops
because of their high food value, their
long Keeping qualities and the long
life of the trees. But there are many
other tree crops almost entirely neg
lected by us In tropical countries the
food of whole nations is largely de-
rived from tree fruits, both for man
and animal. The bread fruit. the
banana. the avocado, the pawpaw, the
carob, the fig, are examples. But with
such fruits as the American paWpaW,
the perSimmon, the mulberry the
honey locust, the acorn and beechnut
are neglected sources of food, eSpec-
tally for animals. Doctor Smith
says that our domesticated animals
eat about nine-tenths of our food
crops and that we spend a large part
Of our time waiting on these animals.
Why not make our hogs and chickens,
for example, wait on themselves by
having good crop trees. many of which
keep dropping their fruit over a large
period Of time, under which we can
pasture them? In Portugal they en-
tirely fatten their pigs on acorns and
In some of the Mediterranean islands
on chestnuts.- .-EXchange.

Calomel loses YOU a day. You know
what calomel is. It's mercury; quick
silver Calomel is dangerous. 1t crashes
into sour bile like dynamite, crumping
and sickening you. Calomel attacks
the bones and should never be put into
your system.
When you feel bilious, sluggish, con-
Stpated and all knocked out and be-
lieve YOU need u dose Of dangerous cal
omel just remember that your druggist
sells for a few cents a large bottle Of
DodSon'S Liver Tone. which is entirely
vegetable and pleasant to take and is
perfect substitute for Calomel. 1t
guaranteed to start your liver without
stirring you up inside, and can not
salivate.
Don't take calomel! 1t can not be
trusted any more than leopard or a
wildcat. Take DodsOn'S Liver Tone
which straightens you right up and
makes you feel fine. Give 1t to the
children because it is perfectly harm
