Forgot What He Needed.

From the Republican, Mt. Gilard,
Ohio: The editor had an interesting
experience some time ago, when a
young gentleman came to this Office
and asked for a copy OF the Morrow
County Republican. He scrutinized
it carefully when a copy was handed
him, and then said: "Now ] know"
"What is it you are looking for" we
inquired. "My wife sent me after a
bottle Of Chamberlain's Cough Rem
edy, and I forgot the name. went
to several stores and the clerks named
over everything in the line on the
shelf except 'Chamberlain's.' Pn try
again and I'll never go home without
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy" The
Republican would suggest to the pro
prietors of stores that they post their
clerks and never let them substitute.
Customers lose faith in stores where
substituting is permitted, to say moth
ing of the injustice to makers of good
goods and the disappointment of Gus
tomers.-Adv.

REPAIR MACHINERY
FOR SPRING URGED

Spring blowing will soon begin.
Then will follow the rush of spring
work. Is your farm machinery in re-
pair for mediate use? Or will you be
delayed on the day blowing should
begin, tinkering up the implements =?
These are pertinent questions, ask
ed by Prof. LeGrande Humphreys of
the Department of Farm Machines,
Utah Agricultural College. Prof.
advises, very urgently,
that farmers do not delay day in
putting their farm machinery in or
der for the spring work. This will
make for efficiency and bigger profits

Our organization is excellent; we
will make it better. Our experience
during the past campaigns has beer

PROPER FEEDING
WILL SAVE HAY

Experiments in horse feeding just
conducted by the Utah Agricultural
College Experiment Station demon
strates that correct feeding practice
will result in the saving Of from one
fourth to one third of the alfalfa hay
in the rations of work. horses. AT
the same time, the efficiency Of the
animals will be increased. 1t is es-
timated that If all Utah farmers put
into practice these principles, it would
result in a saving of at least 1000 tons
of hay per day.

He was with Mack for ten years, being the main stay of the Philadelphia pitching staff. Bender, in his day, was considered CTS. His work and that of Eddie Plank stopped the great Cub machine in the series of 1910, the National league representatives winning only one game. Bender also took a prom inent part in the 1911 series against New York, the American league club again winning the worlds champion ship. When Mack broke up the Ath- Ietic team after the crushing defeat by the Boston Braves in 1914, he re- leased Bender. The Indian caught on with the National league team in the Quaker City, but was internationally released on March '. 1917. He was declared ineligible to play in 1918. Passing out of the big leagues this year, he went to Richmond in the Vir- ginia league, became it's manager and sent the team to the top with his con sistent winning of games.

In 1914 he joined the Indianapolis federal league team and went to Newark when that club was transferred.
