S. P. CRAWFORD
We had been -wondering what had
become of our old friend S. P,
Crawford, who is distinguished by
the jingle of the milk cans in his
car when driving through the city.
Just before we had despaired of
seeing him again, he drove up where
we were standing with his familiar
smile and good cheer. He said that
he had been very busy attending to
his affairs and keeping his custom-

the city. Mr. Keeter says Ihat v-hen
the rains came last month, he en-
joyed the downpour better than any
rain he ever saw. He says there is
lots of wheat being sown in his sec-
tion and he will sow at least 150
acres of wheat himself. He owns his
home and is a satisfied tiller of the
soil. He says, that he tries to make
the farm produce the living and that

they have chosen the farm for their
occupation. Mr. Colley said that he
raised some, fine turkeys this year.
The price was low but he says they
did not cost him * very much to
raise them and he will ‘make the
effort to grow more turkeys next
year. Mrs. Colley says that she likes
to raise, chickens and turkeys and
they both believe in the farm pro-
ducing the living-. We thank these
fine young people for their favor.

costs something to give the
service at all times. And those
ur public servants who are al-
on the job deserves much more
^onor than they ever receive from
any of us. M. P. McCracken has
been fire chief for the past eigh-
teen years for Olney, and is still
on the job. His duties are just as
new to him as the day he first be-
gan. He has never tired of render-
ing the best service- within him. He
has studied the duties to which he
is called to perform and he is
never void of a good speedy plan
to defend the city against the merci
products. He sells only the best and
his wares never go begging for
want of a buyer. He does not try
to do all the business, he just at-
tends to what he has and it makes
him prosperous. We have been to
his place and learned first hand
of his operations and we know of a
truth that Crawford produces sani-
tary products that are second to
none. He stated that during the
month of October he sold to his
customers 286 pounds of butt-el’ be-
side the sweet and butter milk he
delivers. He had some awful roads
during the rainy spell of October,
but he made the effort to get to his
customers and they were disappoint-
ed very few times.

CHAS. WATSON
To be able to make a living and
a little profit on any project in a
time like this is a wonderful achi-
evement and requires much energy
and ability. Ch.as. Watson of Prof-
fitt, who was in Olney last week, is
one of the farmers who by the help
of his good wife, with chickens and
turkeys, has kept out of debt and
made a profit. Mrs. Watson is one
of the best poultry women in this
section and she is leading the coun-
keriod. It may be the farmer

L. C. ANDREW
We had occasion to visit the poul-
try house of Olney last week and
watch operations there for awhile
which' reminded us of former days
when we used to have rushes and
.business was not hampered by de-
pressions * of any kind. This turkey
rush had every earmark' of good
old times, which we had almost for-
gotten.
H. Strealey was as busy as a
miles out of town, who is engaged
in farming. He has chickens, hogs,
cows and turkeys on the farm. He
is not going into any one thing to
heavily, but keeps a variety. He
only has about thirty turkeys but
he says they are good ones. It is
commendable in the fellow who tries
to grow his living and' not depend
on buying it. When ever the farm-
er depends on buying his living he
must produce something to sell to
pay for it. The things which the
farmer has for a surplus is general-
ly cheap in price and the things he
has to buy are in most instances
high in price. When the farmer
brings the two extremes together he
finds that he is the loser. Hoffman
is right, the farmer should try to
grow what he uses on the farm.

peting from all over the United
States, and his pen came out in
ninth place- in the contest.
One of his hens which was kept
for a 300-egger, came out in sixth
place, producing 302 eggs during
the year. There were 480 hens in
the contest and only ten of the
bunch produced 300 eggs and over.
Eight of these hens were raised in
Texas. This is a strong point that
we will not have, to send away to
get high egg producing stock. Mr.
Lowry’s ten hens in the contest pen
laid a total of 2,366 eggs in ten
months, which was a short contest
for this year. The regular period is
eleven months. His birds also made
good winnings on points which
means that they produced very
large eggs which is a big factor in
production. Poultrymen are striving
to breed the Leghorns up to larger
Mr. W. M. Wheeler, a well known
local man, a farmer, living on rural
route 3, is enthusiastic in his praise
of Orgatone, tbe new medicine, be-
cause he and his wife have received
benefits and relief from troubles of
years standing. i
“It’s true,” he continued, "rSith.
my wife and I have been bothered
with stomach trouble for quite a-
while. It seemed that none of the
food we ate digested . properly, in-
variable after meals gas would
form and we would experience se-
vere pains and cramps in the pit
of our stomach. We took a lot of
medicine but just couldn’t get to the
point, where we could eat what we
wanted, without, suffering after-
wards. My wife suffered terribly
from gas, forming on her stomach
and would have a full bloating-up
feeling. I had a bad case of consti-
pation.
“Orgatone was advertised so high-
ly we decided to try it. Well, we
i,certainly are greatly improved ih
every respect since taking Orgatone
We both have a fine appetite- now'
and our food digests properly ann
we arn’t bothered with cramping dr
pains aftei’wards. My wife isn't
bothered with gas forming any-
more, in fact, it has done both of
us more good than anything we
have ever taken and we feel better
than we have in several months.
Orgatone is a wonderful medicine
and has been a great benefit to
both of us.”

\ PRESENTING
THE NEW CHEVROLET
The Eight-90—Finest Motoring
Money Can Buy—$1565
Everywhere you go, you will hear glowing trib-
utes to the new Nash. Some refer to the car s
/
smooth, flashing speed and delightful ease of
control. Others stress its finer beauty and
luxury. All marvel at the wholly unexampled
value. Beyond these tributes, there is the
unmistakable fact that every one who rides in
or drives the new Nash desires to own it. A
demonstration will make you, too, one of the
new thousands now turning to the new Nash.
Today the Chevrolet Motor
Company presents the Bigger
and Better Chevrolet Six, a
new model of the six-cylinder ear which has
enjoyed such wide popularity. In both the
chassis and body, you will find expressed, as
never before, Chevrolet’s well-known policy
of progress through constant improvement.
The new Chevrolet is longer, lower and
strikingly smart. The radiator has been
deepened and its appeara-nee enhanced by a
curving tie-bar and chrome-plated parabolic
headlamps. The long hood sweeps back
gracefully into the new body lines. And
never was Fisher’s fine craftsmanship more
evident than in the bodies of the new Chev-
rolet Six! They are roomier, more comfort-
able, and throughout exhibit that attention
to detail which is the basis of true quality.
Mechanically, too, the new Chevrolet Six is
better. The wheelbase is longer. The frame
stronger. The steering easier. The clutch
more durable. There is a smoother, quieter
transmission. Wherever finer materials and
more advanced design, could increase Chev-
rolet quality' and eecfnomy-^*impro\ cmeht

outstanding achievement — it is the (treat
