There Is one sure way to get greater
value in a low-priced car today—
choose a Six!
This greater value is instantly
obvious when you drive a Chevrolet
Six. You notice first of all its
greater smoothness. There is no
tremor in the steering wheel—no
rattle in the floor boards—no rumble
or drumming in the body.
In addition to the finer perform-
ance of its six-cylinder motor, the
new Chevrolet gives you truly
remarkable economy.
Its six-cylinder smoothness saves
the entire car from the strain and
wear of vibration. This, of course,
lowers the cost of maintenance and
assures a longer-lasting, longer-
satisfying automobile.
From the standpoint of operating
expense, Chevrolet is equally eco-
nomical. No other automobile con-
sumes less gasoline and oil. No other
shows a lower expense for tires. And

most of the many ills that af-
flict humanity are traceable to
a disordered condition of the
stomach and intestines. Keep
these organs healthy and act-
ive and you will remain strong,

Then if you are a victim of

numerous disagreeable symp-
toms resulting from it, the ex-
perience of others in your own

testified to the benefits they

forcibly to you.
Among the many endorse-

R. L. Stansell, well known tex-

lives at 407 West Wilson Street.
He says:
“I am feeling much better
in every way, because of what
Argotane has done for me, in
the short time I have been tak-
ing it. Before I began taking
it—which was on the recom-
mendation of a friend who had
got wonderful results from the
medicine, I would bloat up with
gas on my stomach, have bad
headaches, was bothered with
constipation, had attacks of
indigestion and was losing
weight.
“After starting in on Argo-
tane these troubles were reliev-j
ed fast. I found that I was
getting results as others said'
they did. It has certainly prov-
en a fine medicine in my case.”

per acre on five acres, winning
a trip to the Annual Farmer's
Short Course at A. and M. CoL

cago. He else won first prize
in the general exhibit with one

suitable for truck than for cot-
ton or com. His father also
grows a considerable acreage in
watermelons each year.
January 10,me broke the land
about five inches deep. The
land was then checked, making
the hills about 15 feet apart.
Twelve loads of barnyard man-
ure were put on the five acres,
a shovelfull in each hill. After
the manure had been distrib-
uted, the land was thrown up
in rows about three feet wide.
On March 15, the middles were
disced and harrowed.
The seed planted were of the
Tom Watson variety, and were
selected from melons weighing
more than 40 pounds each.
From six to ten seed were
planted in the hills. Some of
the seed were eaten by mice,
but these hills were replanted
within ten days.
On April 20 the crop was
plowed for the first time, with
an 18-inch sweep on a single-
stock. Plowing was done with-
in 12 inches of the hills. Ten
days later, a larger sweep was
run in the same furrows. When
possible, the crop was plowed
every ten days. May 27, the
hills were thinned and hoed.
Two vines were left to the hill,
F and all vegetation was removed
from near the vines. On June
25 the crop was plowed for the
last time. '
The greater part of the crop
was marketed in Paris, and for
the first nine tons, Ralph re-
ceived $15 per ton. The re-
mainder sold for $10 |>er ton.
He says that his success is due
to good seed, and proper meth-
I ods of cultivation.
