trucks for hauling grain and had calls
from all parts of the county in less
than "a hours after the ad appeared
and on Sunday he was swamped with
telephone calls from farmers wanting
those trucks. What we want to get
at is the fact that the Times Record
is the best advertising medium in
Barnes county. It is read by farm
fers all over the county and we claim
that as a newspaper and advertising
medium it is the best in the county. 81

Editor and Mrs. p. R. Trubshaw
made their initial visit to Lisbon yes
terday and while there took occasion
to visit the Soldiers Home. We had
always heard IF this splendid insti-
tuition and of it's beautiful situation
and grounds but the half has never
been told. 1t is really one of the real
beauty spots of the country-no more
beautiful anywhere. The grounds are
laid out in natural surroundings OF
trees and dells and the grounds sur
rounding the buildings are beautifully
laid out with shrubbery and flower beds
that were bower Of beauty and color.
Everything is kept up spic and span.
There are many old soldiers and their
wives living at this splendid home in
happiness and contentment. They have
all they want to eat and plenty of it.
Nice, comfortable rooms to sleep IN
and spacious porches to sit in and en-
joy the comforts that they can get in
these shady retreats during the bright
summer days. In speaking with a
number of them 5hey say that the
place. is we'll managed and they have
all the comforts it is possible to get
at an institution Of this kind. DR.. H. j.
Rowe, formerly of Casselton, is the
commandant, and Mrs. Rowe is the
matron, and the old soldiers and their
wives speak in the highest terms of
both. We are mighty glad that North
Dakota can contribute to the old vet
Grams and their wives this splendid
institution for their comfort
in the declining years of their livss.
We cannot pay taxes for more
worthy or better cause-a and this is
one institution we would gladly pay
double taxes for. Lisbon is a fine,
progressive city, with beautiful
homes and surroundings. We certain
ly enjoyed that visit to Lisbon and the
Soldiers Home yesterday. a#
