Fertilizer made to grow profit
able crops 1--WE realize our ferti-
lizer must make money for our

Our fertilizer is thoroughly

The formulas and mixing of

teen years of practical applica-
ton Of this knowledge to build

Our name is new to the reader
but we are not new in our life's
work-that of making fertilizer.
There are fifty years of expert
ence packed in every bag of our
goods. A half century of use of
these goods by our customers is I
an unimpeachable test of quality.
We cordially invite our farm

:: SOCIETY ::


Mrs. Charles Edward Howard
was hostess last night at de-
lightful surprise party given for
her husband who yesterday cele-
brated the twenty-ninth anniver-
sary Of his birth.
The affair was distinctly a
mans gathering with the pastimes
OF the evening centered on
roulette wheel and poker table,
which kept the guests on the
quiviye during the evening and
furnished exciting entertain
ment.
OF course the stakes were just
large enough to keep up the in
terest of the players, but small
enough to keep the hearts of a
player at ease, even though he
happened to be a constant loser.
II was declared a perfect eve
ming.
Toward midnight Mr.. and Mrs.
Howard presided at delightfully."-
arranged and appetizing luncheon
which was made doubly attractive
and enjoyable by a delicious birth
day cake which was divided at the
conclusion of the final course.
Again to the games and when
these came to an end it was
found that Tax Assessor ]. Otto
Kirchheiner, was the winner Of
the high prize which was pre-

ed to open in the presence of the
gathering.
complying with the insistent
demands of the group, though do
ing it reluctantly as though an.
ticipating a joke, Mr.. Kirchhein-
er began enclosing the deliberately
enveloped package until he came
to the enclosure which proved to
be a dainty little ashtray in the
design of shoe with little white
mice crawling over the side.
Mrs. Howard said that she had
been keeping this little gift for
just such an occasion when, with
friends celebrating Mr.. Towards
anniversary, it would be awarded
to one of the number who would
be happy at receiving it.
Those who joined with Mr.. and
Mrs. Howard in making their an
niversary celebration one long to

heiner, William Watkins, Atwood
Sands, DIR. w. P. Kemp, Sam Gold
smith, William Fripp, Ray Heiner,

Carl Eich.
Before departing each guest

Farmer Browns Boy.
THE Ducklings in the Smiling Pool
were still disappearing. Farmer
Browns Boy was worried The game
warden was worried. Both feared
that unless they could do something
about it all those baby Black Duck
lings would be killed before they had
chance to grow up. The game war
den had but one worry. 1t was that
all those little Ducks might furnish
dinners for hungry furred and feath-
cred hunters, instead of hunters with
terrible guns later on. Farmer Browns
Boy was worried for the safety of
those Ducks. He did not want them
killed at all, neither now nor later.
He was also worried lest one or more
of the hunters Of the Green Forest
and the Green Meadows be wrongly
blamed for the disappearance Of those
Ducklings and be shot by the game
