Don't Buy Private
Brand Roofing

When you buy an unknown private
brand of roofing you give the dealer, if
he is INSCRIPTIONS, a chance to double
cross you.
In the first place, how do you know
what quality of roofing you are buying?
He may say that it is hrst-grade, be-
cause even an expert cannot tell the
grade by just looking at it. Our third
grade roofing looks as good as any.
The chances are that you will get me-
dunn or poor grade of roofing and pay
frst-grade price for it. At least, an
INSCRIPTIONS dealer with an unknown
private brand of roofing can wolk that
on you if he wants to.

Don't Pay a Long Profit

In the second place, how much profit is

There is nothing to stop his taking a

why some dealers would rather sell pri-
waite brands than Certain-teed.
Any responsible dealer can sell Certain
teed if he plays the game squarely. He
gets fair profit, but he cannot stretch
it because so many dealers handle ii and

Of course, you know what to expect

what he wants. He can afford to sell

Marvellous Progress in
 Carolina Sheep Culture

@ HEEP raising in North Carolina 0 has developed rapidly since that state chloroformed the predatory dog. In the mountain regions the increase has been 400 per cent.
 In the fifteen mountain counties of North Carolina the number of sheep on farms increased from 45,338 in 1918 to 228.579 in 1919. Accounting for this remarkable record, the Ashe- vile Board of Trade says:
 This is attributed in large meas ure to the fight which the office of the secretary has made for the sheep and against the predatory dog. Moreover, the state has a field sheep agent. MT. George Evans, an Englishman who has all his life been engaged in the sheep industry. His experience in the work has been of the greatest value Tn the ueVelopment or the sheep industry.
 The results are truly almost in- credible considering the short period in which they have been achieved, but they speak for themselves. What North Carolina has done can be done in Alabama.
 No more forward step could be taken than for the state department of agriculture to employ a competent field sheep agent to help the farmers choose the right breeds and intelli-
  gently practice sheep culture.
 Alabama has all the natural ad- -vantages for profitable sheep raising What a fine thing it would be to have flock to offset the low price of cotton.

Self-help Efforts to
 Realize on Cotton Crop

~ ITIZENS of Clarksdale, Miss, a N prosperous town across Ala baba's western boundary, have agreed to ship a quantity of cotton to Ger man spinning mills, there to be made into cloth and sold as finished prod uct on their account.
 Title is to be retained in the cotton until the goods are produced and sold. Final account is then to be rendered and division of the profits made.
 The West Texas Chamber of Con- merce, Abilene, Tex, Ras arranged a plan whereby 15,000 bales of cotton will be shipped to Europe through a local cotton concern with European connections and stored in Europe pending a ready market.
 Such action will tend more to re- store confidence than the burning and posting of gins and stores by night riders. w. P. G. Harding, governor of the federal reserve board, spoke precisely to the point when he said in Washington Tuesday:
 You cannot blame a banker for not
 wanting to make loan on a com-
 modity which might be- destroyed, can
 you?
 The storing and insuring of cotton in fire-proof warehouses must pre- cede loans at the home banks. Ex- port associational effort of one kind and another will alone make possible the profitable marketing of cotton in Europe.
 The federal reserve board is gov erned by law. It cannot go outside the law to help any one industry any more than another, be it rubber, cof- fee, silk, cattle, iron, steel or cotton. The thing to do is to help ourselves.
