MATTER HAS BIG APPLE CROP
John Matters Sixteen Acre Orchard
Gives Big Yield This Year. Has
1890 Trees.
Sold so Bushels of Wealthy Appies
to Cedar Rapids Firm at $1.25
BusheI.

The John Matter apple orchard,
located three miles north of DEBORAH
on the Locust road has been bearing
in great shape this year. He has 16
acres of 1880 trees. 521 are of the
Wealthy variety and 500 Northwest
ern Greetings, and the balance OF
different yarities. He planted his
first apple tree about ten years ago
and the orchard has developed into
one of the very excellent ones in this
section. '
He has picked about 1900 bushels
OF Wealthies and about 400 bushels
of Northwestern Greetings. $40
bushels of the Wealthies we're sold
and shipped last week to C. l.. ober,
commission merchant of Cedar
Rapids at $1.25 bushel. The apples
We're all free run or bulk.
Mr.. Matters apples are all very
fine this year, in fact, the best he
ever raised. He bought triple
sprayer two years ago that cost him
$500, and we understand it is the
only one of its kind in this section,
and as the result of the use of this
sprayer, his apples are all perfect.
Several years ago Mr.. Matter erect
ed large building 32xS0 on his
farm, which has fine basement.
The upper floor has been used as a
dance hall. Mr.. Matter has now dis
continued the use of the building as
a dance hall, and next year will pot
in an up-to-date cold storage plant
in the basement, and the main floor
will be used as storage and sort
ing room.
Mr.. Matter is one of the progress
sive farmers and apple growers Of
Iowa. He has fine farm, with every
thing up-to-date and modern. His
apples have been in big demand The
Cedar Rapids merchant who purchas-
ed the 500 bushels said that the par
ticular lot of apples purchased from
Mr.. Matter this year we're the finest
he ever handled, and he has handled
thousands of bushels.

Weather Turning Gold.

With most of the coal bins empty
and the mercury going down, many
people of DEBORAH are wondering
where, or when they are going to
get any coal. The dealers here don't
seem able to relieve the situation,
and people are getting no satisfac-
ton about when they will get their
coal. There is plenty of coal in the
country, but it is not moving to GER
tain sections of the country for some
reason or another. Something should
be done by officials with power to
relieve the situation. And another
thing the price Of coal is almost pro-

The enemy is film

Dental science has discovered that
the teeth's great enemy is a viscous
film. You can feel it with your tongue.
Film clings to teeth, enters crevices
and stays. Then it discolors some
times tartar forms. And that film
causes most tooth troubles.
It is that film-coat which discolors-
not the teeth. Film is the basis of
tartar. 1t holds food substance which
ferments and forms acid. 1t holds the
acid in contact with the teeth to cause
decay.
Millions of germs breed in it They,
with tartar, are the chief cause of pyor-
rhea. Also many other troubles are
now traced to them.
