FIRM MEMBER IN CHARGE
The Change Will Mean Much To
Lexington In Every
Particular.

The A. A. Grimes Store in
Lexington has been sold to Mat
tingly Bros, who are now in
possession. This firm consists of
four brothers and have stores
in Odessa, Glasgow, Oak Grove,
and Holden. Hugh Mattingly,
for six years manager of their
Glasgow store, and one of the
firm, will be manager of the
Lexington store, which will
mean much more to Lexington
than the Grimes store did. Mr..
Mattingly will be apart of Lex
ington in every particular, and
enter into the various activities
of the city.
The store will be known as the
"Mattingly Bros. Broken Dol
lar Store" The character Of
the stock will be considerably
different from that carried by
the Grimes store. 1t will be more
complete; the dry goods depart
ment. will be enlarged and ladies
and mems underwear, and mems
work clothes will be added.
Mattingly Bros. are experienc.
ed and successful merchants
and while they conduct a chair
of stores, they do not pursue thC
blanket policy in doing business
except in so far as it increases
their buying power; each storr
becomes identified with the bus

Friday evening in Murrell
Auditorium the joint recital CIV

Kansas City, and Mrs. Irwin
Morris of Lexington, was an en-
joyable affair. 1t was sponsor
ed by the Lexington Music Club,
and the ability of two such ar
lists in conjunction with the
clubs enterprise proved a happy
combination. Mr.. Hunt, who ap-
peared first on the program, is
a professional singer who con-
vinces his audience at once that
his matured' artistry is of large
and generous proportions and he
gives of it freely. His baritone
voice is excellent in natural
quality and splendid in technical
equipment. The selections were
sufficiently varied to make many
demands upon Mr.. Hunts vocal
ability, but fiorid passage and
sustained phrase were equally
well sung.

FARM FLOCKS
MAKE 81 A DAY
Six Carloads of Eggs a Month
From 6O,157 Missouri
Hens.

Very nearly million eggs
we're laid during March by the
60,157 hens in the 377 demon
stration farm flocks whose own
ers are cooperating with the
Missouri College Of Agriculture.
The records, according to 7. S.
Townsley, extension poultry
specialist, show that 983,224
eggs were gathered on demon
stration farms during the
month.
These eggs would fill 2,731
standard 30-dozen cases and
would more than fill six stand
ard freight cars holding 400 cas-
es each. These eggs sold for
.$17,764.81, or an average of 22c
a dozen. The following prices
we're received for March eggs in
previous years: 1921, 24c; 1920,
39c; 1919, 95c; and in 1918,
31c.
The feed cost for producing
eggs on the Missouri demonstra-
tion farms in March 1922, was
TIC a dozen compared with a
feed cost of 7.4c a dozen in 1921,
1880 a dozen in 1920, 11.5c in
1919, and 12.6c in 1918.
The rrofts from the dmon-
stration flocks were somewhat
lower in 1922 than for March
of the previous four years, but
the average farm, keeping 159
hens, still had more than $1.00
per day left after paying for the
feed cost for March, 1922.

Hubert Bates Announces For
County Clerk.

Hubert Bates announces in
this issue of The Intelligencer
his candidacy for the Democrat
ic nomination for the office of
Clerk of the County Court. Mr..
Bates needs no introduction
from anyone, and his announce
ment, we believe, will be receiv-
ed with genuine satisfaction by
the voters all over the county.
He has proven his efficiency in
everything he has undertaken,
and particularly as deputy
county clerk during a period
when the business of the office
was more than doubled-during
the war. With increased duties
and under most trying circum-
stances, everyone received the
same uniform and courteous
consideration which character
ICES his every day life. Besides,
he was a willing worker in all
of the activities of that period.
Furthermore, he is a good Dem
ocrat and a good citizen.

his candidacy for the Democrat

Recorder of Deeds. Mr.. Shelton
was candidate for the office of
County Treasurer two years a
go and made a most aggressive
campaign, but went down in the
Republican landslide. He saw
every voter that it was possible
to see, so it would seem that his
candidacy for Recorder will
meet with the hearty approval
of the voters. Mr.. Shelton is a
man of excellent character, high
ly educated and in every way
qualified to perform the duties
of the Office.
