July rainfall in Denton county was
just .71 of an Indi, according to the
record kept at the Experiment farm-by
Supt. C. H. McDowell: the maxiuirfm

66. The evaporation for the month
was 9.836 inches; showing .» lo» in
moisture for the month of 9.126“ inches
over the rainfall measured
The extreme torridity of the month
is shown by thd fact that on eighte“n
davs the mercury ranged between 99

‘ast sixteen days of the month there
were only three, days daring which the
mercury did not reach or pass 100 de-

ROUND ABOUT TUWN
Speaking of war gardens, J. N. ifpy-
zor has one of which he might well
be proud down on the Alliance mi.I
property. Waste water from the ice
oant has been jjsed to irrigate lhe
garden, saving it from tfae drouth.
While corn belonging to others has
burned up, Mr. Rayzor’s roasting cars
are^jst coming in and he got his first
mess from the crop Sunday. Tomatoes
and peas are as well preserved and
beets in the garden are reaching givat
sjze. “I did not plant the garden un-
til late,” Mr. Rayzdr said, “andj did
not have time to fertilize th$ soil. Next
year I Kam going to have a sure enough
war gaMen and show what irrigation
here will do.’’
"If we can get soaking rains by the
middle of August I shall be hopeful of
a cotton ernp,” said Ab Reynolds Mon-
day. “If we will look back over the
past years and recall the fact that
with dry July and half of August we
have made better cotton crops than if
we had an excess of rain. I believe
those who remember the fac*s will
agree with rne. This year, of course,
we had no deep season and that is a
handicap. J>ut I'm very hopef-il yet of
a good crop with August rains.” Mr
Reynolds was about the only local cot-
ton man who last year came within
several thousand bales of the Denton
•ounty crop, and his early estimate of
35.000 hales, which he subsequently
raised to 45.000 as published in the
Record-Chronicle subjected him fo
much ridicule. The crop totaled, as
Roundabout remembers it. about, 48.000
batas, aHho in August there we/e man\
who estimated it as low as 25,000 bales
and few as high as 30,000.
“I am puzz'ed and do not know
actly how to figure Things ont,”
4. L. Lindsey. “Some months ago I
sold two fat cows to a local butcher
at ten cents per pound and he w inte l
to Luy a third one that I own°d: I did
not sell this cow but bought faur ibs.
of beef from the butcher and he charg-
ed me 25 cents per pound for it 7 he
other dav I went to him and offered
to sell him the third cow. T ?an only
give you seven cents for the cow’
was th® offer. I decided not to sell lhe
cow, but told him to wrap me up
two pounils of steak and he did so
When I asked him what I owe! him
he said, ‘Seventy cents.” Cows had
i-one down almost thirty three and one
third per cent while beef had gone up
more than that per cent. I am puz-
zled."

HOW’S YOUR BATTERY
This is one particular thing about an au-
tomobile that should have the constant at-
v tention of the owner. If the owner is not fa-
miliar with every detail of a batttery he
should take it to a battery expert and have
it inspected as often as needed. We have a
battery expert who makes a special study of
different batteries and their troubles and we
ask that you call and let him inspect your
battery. A few minutes’ inspection might
save you the price of a new battery. We sell
and exchange batteries. We do not make
any charge to our customers for refilling a
battery. We want your batteries to work
for you all the time and if we can be of ser-
vice to you we want you to tell us so.
' V KEEP YOUR CAR
Out of thqgweather because the sun will
draw the paint and the rain (if we have any)
will also ruin the paint. We make special
prices to owners when cars are stored by the
month.
