Remember when the first
automobile came to town

TODAY there are more
than 100000 Of them
in the country. Pretty soon
nearly everybody in this Sec

in his own automobile.

The first thing a man
wants to know nowadays,
when he starts out to buy a
car, is how much it is going
to cost him to keep it rum

It's all very we'll to take

physicians in the State and enjoys
the continued liberal patronage OF
people from all over the Plains Of
Texas and New Mexico.
Lubbock has been fortunate in Sc
curing for this section such strong
institution as the Lubbock Sanitar-
ium, and with the combined forces
of the two splendid institutions and
the combined financial, physical and
professional ability of these men,
the future for the business is indeed
very promising
We have not learned what plans
DR.. Wagner has for the future. but
understand he will not be connected
with the new associates Of the Lub-
book Sanitarium. He has made many
friends in Lubbock and all over the
Lubbock country, who join with US in
hoping that he will continue to make
Lubbock his home.
The Avalanche is always in favor
of the things that are for the best in
terest of the city and West Texas in
general, and We are sure that these
men have given the question of con-
solidation long and close study be-
fore the deal was made and they are
in position to know what is best for
the general public. the city of Lub-
book and their own interest. So we
join heartily in wishing for them the
greatest success possible in the op-
GRAFTON Of an institution that is one
Of the greatest known to mankind,
and which is necessary in a city To-
Gated as Lubbock is in the heart of
one of the fast growing cities in the
southwest, and in a country which is
increasing in population by leaps and
bounds. a4

STOCK TRADING VERY
ACTIVE IN LUBBOCK

Not since the old days when trad
ing in livestock was one Of the inn
portant industries Of the city has
there been as much activity AS there
IS at the present time. Most every
kind Of animal which Is suitable for
the farm or for work purposes are
topping the market. Mules, especial
ly the better grades. are demanding
probably the highest ever paid in
this section at this time. Farmers
who have realized neat profit from
this years work are selling their
shabby stock and purchasing better.
This applies TO cattle, mares and work
horses as well as to mules.
MIX cows are in demand here now
and are bringing fancy prices. A
fine car lot was shipped here this
week from Hagerman, n. NJ. all Of
which were Jerseys, some common
and few thoroughbreds. Prices
seem prohibitive on this class Of
stock, but they sell as though this
class of cattle were nearly exhaust
ed. Many deals in milk cows have
brought a price Of $3.50. though these
we're thought and claimed to be ex-
ceptional mixers. although 1t is com
mon for the common grades to sell
for 1925 per head Mules have sold
by the span on the local market for
$500. these being Of course of the
very best, although the demand for
best mules is great. there is also
found here a market for lower
grades.
All Of which goes to show that the
farmers of Lubbock county are pre-
pairing to cultivate many additional
acres for the next year and are
starting in carly in order 10 success
fully realize the benefits Of their
plans. Present conditions were new
er better nor prospects never bright
or for the South Plains and its citi-
zens than the present time.

A FAKE STORY IS
EMPHATlCALLY DENIED

A story has been going the
rounds in Lubbock county for the
last sir weeks or longer TO the ef-
feet that Federal officer visited the
city Of Lubbock in the capacity Of a
detective about two months ago. and
after maneuvering around among the
business men Of the town for some
DAYS found two Of our leading mer-
chants. to-wit. A. Il. Conley Jr., and
Raleigh Martin Of the firm OF Martin
q Wolcott, guilty Of the Federal Of
fense Of profiteering and at once ar
rested them, led them to the office
Of the County Attorney Of Lubbock
county and ordered that officer to
prosecute these two men for this Of
fense. The county attorney refused
10 entertain the proposition and the
U. s. officer put him under arrest
also for refusing TO prosecute the
two merchants. The two merchants
and the county officer were marched
20 the depot, loaded on train and
given free transportation TO ANA
rillo whsre they were all given free
tickets To the Federal court room.
The Federal Judge imposed heavy
fines on each Of the three Lubbock
ft~s. and after they had paid their
respective fines were turned locse
with pale faees. sad hearts and emp
" pockets to wend their way back
home a. best they could under the
very embarrassing circumstances
without . penny and without friend.

OVER BY LUBBOCK SANrTARIUM CORPORATION
Or. 0VERT0N TAKES INTEREST IN NEW ORGANIZATION
The Building Win be Added and Additional Equipment VIII be
Installed to Take Care of the Constantly Bus
of the Two Institutions.

A deal Of unusual interest was
consummated the past week, where
by the West Texas Santarium, lots
building and equipment, was sold to
the owners of the Lubbock Sanitar-
ium, and the two Institutions will be
consolidated under one management,
and as soon as the business of the
West Texas Sanitarium can be final
ly wound up that building will be
either sold or leased for other pur-
poses and the business of the two in
stitutions will be taken care of at the
Lubbock Sanitarium on West Broad
way.
As has been previously announced
in this paper the Lubbock Sanitarium
will greatly increase their capacity
for handling the business by the ad-
dition of two more stories TO the
present splendid building, and the
equipment of the West Texas will be
transferred TO these new stories,
which will equip them fully for bus
mess.
This will give Lubbock one of the
sivnsest SoIpS Vi Hneuicdl men anu
specialists Of any institution Of the
kind in the state. and it will mean
much for the future of the sanitar-
ium business of this city, as well as
the entire western part of the state

Of every available resource in the
Plains country advocated the use Of
the fodder from the stock for feeding
purposes with the results mentioned
above the making Of two uses Of the
crop seed and forage.
The standard price for the seed on
the market today varies from 10 70
/ 3 cents per pound, which makes a
very substantial income from Sudan
grass per acre.
The experiments with Sudan grass
have not ceased. The experimental
station operated by the State here is

ton is impaired TO the farmer Thou
sands Of dollars have been expended
IN both experiments and advertising
Of this resource with the result that
Sudan grass will eventually develop
into one Of the most important crops
to be grown in the great Southwest
according 10 the opinion Of those who
have been working on the develop
ment Of the crop since IL was first
established in the Plains country.
Sudan grass Is similar to grain
sorghums and will mix very easily
with any Of these crops II however,
attains much ranker growth than
the grain sorghums as a rule Care
IN It's growth should BE- carefully ex-
ercised as belonging to the grain sor-
ghum family il Is very easy for the
seed TO become fouled IL il is mixed
with these other crops and much Of
the value Of the crop will be lost in
this manner
About the first Of May is the prop
er time for the planting Of Sudan
grass and the crop will be matured
and ready for the first cutting IN
July. Depending upon weather con
ditIons from two to four cuttings
will be secured after that time up
until October II the grass is raised
principally for seed purposes no
cuttings are made at all until the
seed ripcns IN latter part Of August.
