But there are also counterfeit “Ford” parts. These imitations are made by con-
cerns in no way connected with the Ford Motor Company and retailed as sidelines by
mail-ordej; houses, down-town stores, and many garages. The unsuspecting customer
accepts them because they are called “Ford" parts. To make sure of getting the genuine

no department was closed to us—-nothing was
kept from us. We saw the whole inside work-
ings. The bigness of it impressed us—the ma-
chine shop alone is 800 feet long—but more
than that was the systematic way things are
organized and the thoroughness with which
the goods are manufactured, inspected and
tested. One of the machines, a cylinder grind-,
er, is the only machine of its kind in the coun-

When you buy a tractor you want first, the
most efficient, dependable and economical trac-
tor on the market. Second, you want to be sure
of a personal service from your dealer that
means something. For what good is the very
best tractor to you if you don’t thoroughly
know how it works and how to keep it work-
ing?
During the two weeks we worked, and
worked hard. We learned the tractor thor-

mVlTN II* YOUR BACK YARD—RKSJ
VARIETIES
Fresh ripe home grown peach e«,
pears, plums, and grapes are a luxury
that may be I ad over a period of sev-
eral months al very little expense.
Fresh fruit will help a lot towards
cutting down the high cost of living
and ths surplus may be canned) or pre-
served and enjoyed during the winter
montha
No matter how small your back yard
may be you should by all means plant
a few fruit trees. In a space forty by
sixty feet you can plant a dozen fruit
I 'trees, a dozen grape vines, two dozen
-dewberries, a fig. Japanese persimmon
and pecan. If you wish you may grow
vegetables between the rows of trees
for the first few years for neither will
Interfere with the growth of the Other.
It would be impossible to name a list
Of varieties for a planting of this kind
that would suit everyone. The follow-
ing varieties are suggested to those
who would want a well balanced
planting of only a few trees For a
planting of a dozen fruit trees I would
plant eight peaches, two pears and two
plums. In peaches I would suggest
planting one Barry Cling, a white
clingstone peach ripening about June
1st. There are other varieties ripening
earlier than this but this is beat of the
real early peaches. One Mamie Ross,
or Hlley. Either of these varieties are
very good. Both are white or free-
k stones ripening about the last of June.
L\ One Slappy Peach, a yellow variety
ripening about the last of June. One
Rlappy Peach, a yellow variety ripen-
ing early in July. One Hotrson Cling,
a white cling ripening In July This is
an excellent variety for canning or
I pickling. Two FJberlas. a variety that
is known anti liked by everyone. This
I is a three purpose variety and it Is
I valuable for canning.l-^lry'nK ahd eat-
I ing fresh. One Indian Cling, a. very fine
I red clingstone variety. Very rich, juicy
and fine flavored; tastes like rare old
I wine. One Woodrow Wilson, a white
cling ripening In September. Two Kief-
fer pears will within a few years yield
a plentiful supply of pears. One Winns-
boro plum, an excellent red plum rip-
ening about the middle of May. One
Ameslea plum, a large yellow’ variety.

canning and preserving.
under these conditions and given prop-
er care.
On the average town lot one can usu-
ally find room for from four to eight
trees. The trees, if planted properly and
given good care, should have a few
nuts on them the fifth year, several
pounds the sixth and the tenth year
should show a yield of thirty to sixty
pounds of nuts per tree. Selected nuts
are now quoted at from sixty cents
to one dollar per pound.
As to the best variety of pecan for
general planting 1 am not prepared
to aay. Though there are several va-
rieties which we know are excellent
and these are Stuart, Success. Halbert,
Texas Prolific and Schley. Personally
1 Ilk" the Stuart for an al! round kind.
The trees should not be planted clos-
er than thirty or forty feet each way.
The holes should be dug to a depth
of three or four feet and as many feet
wide. The soil should be of the very
best obtainable After planting It is
advisable to mound the dirt up around
the trunk of the tree to a height of
one foot or more and the remainder of
the tree wrapped with burlap or old
sacks. If planted late the top of the
tree should be cut back. A mulching
of leaves or straw will prove benefi-
cial during the first few summers.
If one has morn space than that in
the average back yard he can. of
course, plant more trees and vines and
have a larger variety. There are num-
erous other varieties of peaches and
plums, grapes, and berries that are ex-
cellent. In addition he may also plant
apples, apricots. cherries, figs and
Japanese lartlmmuin.

Monday morning with the largest civil
docket in the history of the court to
be taken up. The docket shows a to-
tal of 257 suits. XO-odd of which are
new suits. The first four weeks of the

be given to the civil cases.
The Grand Jurors for the term have

paneled then. The number of arrests

"Eve in Exile." is announced for
Munday at the Princess Theater as the
opening bill of a strong program for
the entire week. The opening number
is said to be a greater picture than
the stage play "Scandal” which ran
for a year In New York theaters. Ad-
vance notices say the picture abounds
in unusual bizarre situations, is spicy
without being risque and thrilling
without being melodramatic. In the
cast appears Tom Santschi. Wheeler
Oakman, Charlottes Walker, Mel-
bourne MacDowel|, George Perlolat,
L. C. Shumway, Violet Palmer, Harvey
Clark. Martha Mattox and Perry
Banks.
"The A. B. C. of Love” shows Tues-
day and is a dramatic romance gener-
with comedy. It is an
for the vivacious star,
Mae Murray. With her appears H. E.
Herbert, Dorothy Green and Arthur
Donaldson.
"She X-oves and Lies," appears Wed-
nesday featuring beautiful Norma
Tulmadge and ia adapted from the
story by W. Collins. The charming
star displays remarkable Versatility
in this play that provides her with a
dual role.
Taylor Holmes has the role of the
unfortunate chap who must tell Hoth-
ng but the truth for five full days tn
"Nothing But the Truth," showing on
Thursday. Elsie Mackaye heads the
,-upportlng cast.
"The Chance Train.” showing Fri-
day is the twelfth episode of “The
Black Secret" featuring Pearl White.
Will Rogers portrays the leading
character in "Water Water, Every-
i where" showing Saturday. The play
like his other productions like "Al
J moat A Husband," and "Jubllo" is pre-
I dominated with the comedy but car-
ries a dramatic story.
