WHEAT READILY
REACHES MARKET
Small Variation Found
In Each Seasons
Unloading

A difference in the rapidity with
which leading farm grain crops are
marketed is shown by studies conduct
ed by the Bureau of Agricultural
Economics of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture. Statistics on
the monthly marketings by farmers
over hve-year period, 19l7-l922,
show that while there is considerable
variation in marketing activity from
month to month, the fve-year average
is fairly representative of the market
conditions each season.
According to the figures gathered by
department workers and volunteer
crop reporters stationed in the grain
markets Of the country, OIL per cent
OF the marketable amount of the wheat
crop moves during the four months
of July, August, September, and Oc-
tober; while only 49S per cent of the
oats crop marketed during the year
moves during the same months. SINH
i"A hSuiSS SdlhciSu lot tHc FOUR peak
market months for the corn crop.
namely, December, January, February
and March, show that Az per cent
moves while the rest is marketed
through the remaining
months of the year. The significant
TACT, in interpreting these figures. is,
however, that while nearly all wheat
S sold except that needed for seed,
only small part of the corn and oat
,rops actually leave the farm.
The department has no figures to
how the monthly marketing by farm

'hums, and kafr, but a study of the
market figures for barley over the five
ear period shows that $40 per cent
t the annual market crop is sold dur
ig the first four months after harvest.
Unlike the other crops, the peak mar
ct months for flaxseed are September.
october, and November. An average
59.2 per cent of the crop is sold

Studies of step saving in household
tasks have been given considerable at

made to the United States Department
OF Agriculture indicate. House plan
ming specialists have aided women in
many states to rearrange their kitchens
SO as to make them more convenient
tor doing the housework, especially for
preparing and clearing away meals;
many labor-saving devices which are
also step savers have been demonstrate
ed, and when it has not been possible
to purchase commercially made equip
ment, numerous homemade substitutes
have been installed. A report from
Grays Harbor county, Washington.
says: MY remodeled kitchen saves
me 20 steps and minutes in the max
ing of gingerbread or cornbread. The
new location of my wood boxes saves
me 400 steps in getting dinner"
A home maker in Snohomish county
in the same state, wore a pedometer
while dong her work, and when the
readings on it were checked it was
found that she had saved in travel.

would save 236,65l steps otherwise

PROUD OF RECORD
Cruse-CrawfOrd Has Busy Spring
 And Summer

And Summer
 "As the winter season approaches. always a quiet time for auto dealers, we feel justly proud of our record for spring and summer in the used car line" said William l.. McNeal, mana ger Of the used car department of Cruse- Crawford Manufacturing com pany.
 we have sold since Jan. 1ps7s good used cars at profit to our company, and yet as bargains to our custo- mers. We trade them right and each and every car that comes through our used car department is complete : ly overhauled and put in Al condl- = ton; hence the customer is pleased and the cars stay put
 q believe there are better values in used cars today than at any time in the life of the automobile indus try. The great number of new cars sold has enabled the manufacturer to reduce his cost to minimum. or course, as the new cars are reduced in price the used cars are accordingly, and this year being the banner year, has indeed meant much to the cus- toner.
 Used cars purchased at this sea- son can be bought at such low figures they can be traded or exchanged for practically the entire cost in the spring, and one will have had the pleasure of the car, with very nttle cost, all winter.
 This is certainly the best time to buy used cars, and I would suggest to any one in the market for a used car to visit the various dealers of Birmingham or turn to the classified ads of this paper and see what won derful values are obtainable."

LIVELY PARLIAMENT
Violent Debates Feature Solon Ses-
 sion In JmgOSIaXia

BELGRADE, Nov. 10.--(By Associ- ated Press .)-Summone recently to consider minor taxation problems, the Jugoslavia Skupshtina, or Par lament, developed a stormy session far beyond the estimated period of only few uneventful days.
 The Skupshtina. with it's repre- sentation of all classes In the state, furnishes good picture of the popu- lation of Jugoslavia. Among the most outspoken members are peas- ants in native costume who take a promin ent part in the stormy dis cussions.
 The Slovakian group had lively passage at arms with the true, or "pravi' Serbians, the other day, when the Slovenian deputy Vretch- ko, complaining of the measures of repression adopted by the radical government. got up and announced that life under Austria was much more llvable than 1t Is under Serbia
 Yankoyitch, the minister of com- munications, thereupon stirred up a storm by inviting Vretchko and his fellow Slovenians to emigrate to Austria If they did not like living in Serbia.
 The opposition greeted the gov ernment's invitation with cat-calls and the slamming of desk covers, while the Serbian radicals cheered loudly. The scene reminded one ob- server of the old days in the Aus trian legislature, when the same radical battles were fought.

 The ranchman began his man hunt in 1919--or just as soon as he became convinced that he had been swindled. The net result was, Joe Furey, leader of the squad, died in prison at Hunts vile, Texas, after having been con victed by a Tarrant county court. Norfleet himself arrested Furey two years after the commission of the crime and after chasing him 1000 miles.

Weir Brothers Chauffeur- Y Yourself company, this week announced a re- duction in rates on It's rental cars. In this connection it was remarked by Russell Wier of this firm that a material assistance in making the reduction possible was the tire equipment of his cars. This equip ment consisted of Lee puncture proof tires, which rendered such excep- .tional mileage and satisfactory service that Wier Brothers were en- abled to make the reduction. which was effective last Sunday.
 The Lee puncture proof equipment was sold to Wier Brothers by Hau-il- ton Simms, now manager of the tire and accessory department Of the Bremen Hardware company, which is distributor for Lee products.

PREPARE FOR COLD WEATHER

Before any anti-freeZing solrtion is used it is well to wash the cooling system out thoroughly with a pound of baking soda dissolved in the water before 1t is poured in the radiator. Leave this in the radiator for few hours while the engine Is being run and 1t will clean out the radiator. If there are any small leaks they will show up and should then be repaired immediately to prevent the leaking of the anti-f freezing solution.

INEFFIENcY OF CHEAP PLUGS

Use only the best spark plugs in the engine. The porcelain of the cheap plugs will seldom be able to stand the great heat of the combus- tion and will crack and short circuit. With proper care a good spark plug will easily give 30,000 miles of serv- ice. A cheap one may. not give a hundred.

CLEANsERs; HOW To usE THEM

The most common solvents Of grease and caked oil are gasoline and kerosene. One of the best methods of using these cleaning fluids is to have tank or large kettle in which is suspended two sieves with fine mesh, one completely submerged in the fluid and the other suspended far enough above so as to allow drainage. The parts to be cleaned are put Into the sieve, which is suspended in the gasoline or kerosene and allowed to remain until the grease is dissolved. when they are dumped into the sieve suspended above so as to drain until perfectly dry. Hot soda water (washing soda solution) is also a very effective solvent of grease and may be used in the same manner In the same equipment. Where soda or I've Is used the parts should be cleaned and we'll oiled before replac- Ing, as they are liable to rust.

They are either dead or In custody.
 They had lifted" $45,0oo from him, so he claimed, and, they were going to be punished One by one they sue cumbed to his relentless pursuit. The fourth has just been arrested in Salt Lake City and that explains why Nor fleet has retired to his ranch, con tented and happy at last.
 It was while Fort Worth and Dal- las-in fact all of west Texas-were in the grip of the oil boom that a clever squad of stock swindlers ap- peared in these parts and proceeded to lay traps for the unwary. One of the first to happen along was J. Frank Norfleet, Hale county ranch man and deputy sheriff. He formed a hotel lobby acquaintance with one of the swindlers.
