Grow Flowers With VEGETABLES.

There is no reason why flowers and
vegetables should not be grown to-
gether. 1t is difficult to draw the line,
anyway. The dahlia, now one of the
most popular flowers, was originally
planted with the intention Of using
the tubers as a potato substitute. The
scarlet runner bean, grown by the
acre on the farms of England, is most
often used in America as climbing
vine around the house; in fact, there
are many persons not aware the beans
are good to eat
The ideal garden is one which COM
bines flowers, vegetables and fruit.
Such a garden should have place on
every farm and back of every sub
urban home Oftentimes the vegetable
plot can be surrounded with border
planted on two sides with small fruit
like raspberries, currants, gOoseberries
and grapes, and on the other two sides
with annual and perennial flowers.

FARM LOANS

| Let US make you your next farm
loan, try our way of doing business,
lwhy fool with Eastern money? We
are one Loan Company that started
to loaning private money more than
seven years ago and we have loaned
more than ten Million Dollars Never
did foreclose a Mortgage) We now
have more private money on hand
than we can loan.
We never did start in with red tape
and we have never added any to our
method of doing business, we don't
even take an application or have all
your good neighbors to appraise your
land And know all about your bust
ness.)
When you borrow from us you are
getting your money direct from the
lender and save an Agents commission
When you pay your interest you
pay us with your common every day
check (Some Companies require a
New York Draft or Gold. How many
small Banks in the country can give
you New York Draft?) When you
pay your note off we can produce the
note in AZ hours. (Some Companies
require thirty days) You can readily
see by doing business with Local
Company, Home Company and Home
People you can save time and money.
When you go to deposit your saw
ings you don't send it back to New
York do you? then why don't you
borrow your money at home? We
have just as much money to loan as
the Eastern Company has, you might
not think so, but try us and see, it
will only cost you two cent stamp
to find out and we will refund that to
you in our return answer. Our
terms are just as good as the Govern
ments OF any one else that are max
ing loans.
Now when you need some money
let us hear your wants and we will
respond at once.
Now don't submit wild cat loans to
us for we won't make them, we make
all good conservative loans that are
presented, and when we make you a
loan you will get your money the day
you execute the papers if your title
is up to date and is found alright.
We appreciate small loan just as
much as we do large ones.
