A Kansas editor has figured it
out that the length of a day’s
work depends entirely on the
occupation. Thus, if you lay
brick, eight hours; if you preach
the gospel, two hours; if you
keep house, 16 hours; if you are
a porter in a sleeping car, 24

First Bales Arrive
Goliad county’s first bale ar-
rived last week and was ginned
at the Riverdale gin. It was
raised on the W. F. Pettus ranch
by Pedro Jarromillo and weighed
405 pounds and graded strict
middling. The bale was immed-
iately shipped by express to New
Orleans where it was auotioned
off in front of the cotton ex
change. This was the fourth
bale raised in the state of Texas,
Lyford getting the first. Goliad’s
first bale was raised by Sam
Johnson and weighed 638 pounds.
This bale also graded strict mid-
dling and was handled by the
Martin gin. Mr. Johnson sold
his bale for 8 cents, which
brought him $59.92, besides the
premium of $12.50 which was
secured through the efforts of W.
Green and the rest of the family
are taking a vacation at the sea- wherever he pleases.

Editor Comes Back at ’Em
The editor of this paper is
ready for bids on a new straw
hat. We are not particular
about the style or brand but we
do reserve the right to reject any
and all bids coming from mer*
chants outside of Gonzales coun-
ty. This reservation is made - on
the basis of loyalty to home in-
dustry and goes even to those
merchants who refuse to do busi-
ness with us. While Nixon mer-
chants will have the preference
we will accept bids from dealers
in the towns of Smiley, Leesville,
Gonzales and Wealder. The bids
must be F. O. B. Nixon and on
1915 patterns. This may seem
an unusual proceedure but not
more unusual than the merchant
who ask for bids on a hundred
letter heads or five inches of ad-
vertising space. Let us have
your bids.—Nixon News.

STATEMENT OF CONDITION
7T is with considerable pride that we call your attention to our
• Statement of Condition below, and place before you the evi •
dence of our strength, of the confidence the people have in us,
and of the service we are giving them. This statement is a con-
densed form of the one made by the Comptroller of the Currency
showing our condition at close of business January 23.
In spite of such adverse conditions, our business has steadily
improved, and a comparison of our statement made last June with
the one below, shows a wonderful difference in favor of this year’s
business. Such a splendid showing of our bank in this “off year”
is due entirely to the loyalty and friendly cooperation of our many
patrons, and we desire to express our grateful appreciation of the
confidence you have had in us, for the account you have carried
with us, and for the helpful influence of your connection with this
bank. Such an excellent showing after the depressing period we
have just passed through, is most gratifying to us, ana leads us to
the hope that our friends may all share in a greater prosperity,
through a growing demand and an increasing price for our princi-
pal products. Our statement follows; please examine it critically.

“It is sad that the lives of two
men should be lost when the
trivial character of their offense
is considered, but the fish and
game laws of the State of Ohio
must be upheld, and the deceased
are to blame for the loss of life,”
wrote Ohio’s Game Warden to
Warden Goodfellow. “It is a
lesson for many people, especially
those living near streams who
are undoubtedly familiar with
the law, but who labor under a
delusion as to their rights, think-
ing that their rights are in-
fringed upon when they are not
allowed to disobey the game
laws, and who by their actions
destroy all methods of conserva-
tion that the Government may
take to preserve our natural re-
sources.
“It is this unsportsmanlike dis-
truction of our game and natural
resources which, if allowed to
continue, would mean the disap-
pearance of all game and resour-
ces, to the detriment of every
one, unless laws enacted for
their protection are enforced. ”
