thought of his public sale job he
had promised for that day. He
hurried to the printery and set
type with both hands. His legs
felt slightly wobbly, but his
head was as clear as bell. He
set the job, read the proof,
printed the bills and wrapped
them preparatory to delivery.
The farmer called for his job,
paid his bill and started lacking
up his bills. This is what he
found on his bills:
twenty-five cows broke to
work; Al head of cultivators; 10
head of shoveling boars with
scoops by side; 3 piano mares;
12O rods Of canvas betting better

CLOSING OUT SALE

In a certain town in southern
Missouri, says an exchange, a
newspaper office received an
order for some public sale bills
from prominent farmer near
town. The order was given
June 90 and the work was prom
ised for June 80.
June 80 being the last day be-
fore the prolonged draught, the
printer decided he would take
one shot Of "hootch' in honor of
the occasion. One glass brought
company and the wine flowed
freely. Suddenly the printer

II has been decided to also
give an afternoon showing OF
the movie play Cardigan" which
will be shown in Askov tomor-
row, June 9th. at the ID. B. S.

Legion. The afternoon show will
start at 2 o'clock and the evening
performance at SIS.
The celebration at the local
park Sunday afternoon to COM
memorate the Danish national
holiday which falls on June 5th,
was attended by a good sized
crowd. Very close attention was
accorded the speaker. Rev. c. P.
Hejbjerg Of Des Moines. Iowa.
He dwelt principally on the life
of Wilhelm Birkedal who was q
liberty loving man and who Ia
bored strenuously to separate
the church from the state. Rev.
Hejbjerg's talk was refreshing
and instructive and lasted over
an hour. The band boys were
also on hand and furnished a
few selections.

COUNTY AGENTS ITEMS
". 7. McKELL, County Agent

Sixty men, composed of farm
ers, merchants and bankers, made
the trip to east Mississippi last
week to inspect the dairy farms.
We had a most successful trip
from every standpoint. We saw
what we went to see. and a great
deal more, and had a mighty
good time, too. !
We left Selmer Tuesday morn
ing at 7:30. After visiting two
mighty good dairy farms in Prem
tiss county we reached Guntown
at 3 p. m. We were met there
by seven cars loaded with wide
awake business men of Tupelo
andwere driven to two farms be-
fore reaching that town. After
visiting the creamery in Tupelo
we were taken out to the club
house, where we were served
some barbecue, followed by the
best watermelons a man ever
tasted. From 7:3O to 9 we en-
joyed some very fine talks. DR..
Lloyd of Memphis, on Present
Economic Conditions Confronting
Southern Farmers" and Mr..
Robins, on Good Roads," were
thoroughly enjoyed, On Wednes-
day morning we drove to Aber-
deem in one of the hardest rains
we have experienced in some
time. At Aberdeen we were met
with another royal reception. We
visited the creamery, where they
make from 6, 600 to IL, 900 pounds
of butter per day. We saw
some" butter. After a visit to
the big hog ranch, where they
feed from 5000 to 5000 hogs
constantly, We were driven to the
hotel, where we were served with
luncheon. Here we enjoyed sew
eral good talks on dairying and
also one by Prof. j. w. Fox of
Scctts, Miss, manager OF the
largest cotton farm in the world,
on cotton production.
In the afternoon we drove to
Columbus and found the town
wide open for our reception.
After being served with supper
we were taken to the Chamber
of Commerce and entertained for
an hour with moving pictures
and practical talks.
Thursday we visited the Miss.
issippi A. & M. College and Elk.
pertinent Station. which was
thoroughly enjoyed by all.
Friday morning we visited the
dairy farm of Mr.. Jim Evans al
Maiden. This is one of the best
farms in the South. What We
saw on the farm, linked with the
plain common-sense talks of Mr.,
Evans, made the visit to this one
farm worth the entire trip. The
last of us reached Selmer just al
the clock was striking IL thai
night.
The trip was a most proitabl,
one, our only regret being tina
we had failed to let the womer
folks in on it, and that others O.
our neighbors were not there Il
enjoy it.
