County Land Clearing Association has
set its mark ut 10000 new acres. Sec
rotary Schoepf Of the Rusk County

that now is the time to count those
new acres. Conditions are ideal for
brushing. Is there any reason why
we cannot begin our land clearing pro
gram today? \ couple acres brushed
this winter will mean IL week $ time
saved next spring.
Many farmers throughout the coun-
ty are taking advantage of our mild
winter and doing considerable brush
ing. one farmer near Ingram has
brushed nearly ten acres This winter
If one half of us could do as well, our
10000 new acres would be an assured
success. 1t is seldom that we have
Il winter like the one we are now eX-
periencing. and we should not turn
down any opportunity to get Il few new
acres brushed and thus save time III

ton of the resolution which directs

Army officers have estimated that
it will require nine months, or until
next November 1, to reduce the army
from the present strength Of more
than $4,000 enlisted men to the 49,
900 figure. The army appropriation
bill, up for passage in the House, how
ever, provides maintenance for only
100000 men after next July 1, and
should it be enacted in that form the
reduction process will have to be car
ried beyond November l. Recruiting
for the last five weeks has averaged
about 1000 men a day.

ride the Presidents veto of the reduc-
ton resolution, Senator Kirby, Demo

GOAL SET FOR 1921
L A DY NTH is
RUSK COUNTY'S CITY

Every farmer in Rusk county should
he interested in his nearest village and
the county seat
The villages should thrive and the
county seat should be as good IL city
as the county seat of any county.
How can we make our villages and
cities the best in the land?
BY trading at home.
The local merchant trusted you be-
fore you got on your feet and he is
still trusting hundreds of farmers who
are none too prompt i'll paying their
bills. Why should YOU, who pay cash,
help to pay the bills of those that don't?
Because we are our brothers keeper.
Our merchants are carrying thousands
of dollars on their books continually.
They pay their share of taxes which
keep M the schools of the villages and
cities and county and donate to pub
lie and private charities at home and
are always ready to lend Il helping
hand to the needy
Compare this to the cOld-blOOded
mail order house with its iron heel and
observation-disclosures system. If our mer-
chants adopted their system they
could lmdersel the mail order houses
but the country could not survive the
shock Farms without good villages
and good city for Il county seat would
not he worth half what they are now
so don't cut off your own nose to spite
your face. The farmer who sells his
butter and buys OleOmargarine is as in
telligent as he who does not trade at
home.
This trade at home should not be all
one sided The inhabitants Of the vii
lagos and city Of this county should
use RrSk county butter and all other
local farm products.
The settler here is largely dependent
on his sales Of wood and bolts for liV-
ing and to get money together 10 pay
his taxes As he pays taxes and patron
ICES home industry. he should be given
preference over outside competition.
He should sell goods worth the money
and the merchant should do the same.
It's bitter pill for the local farmer
to swallow to see local merchants ship
in wood from outside points. It's just
as bitter dose TO the merchant to see
his customers send their money out Of
the county for goods they need.
This county should pull together
and keep the money at home.
Let everyone be reasonable and fair
and we will all receive the benefit.
