NOTICE TAXPAYERS
Owing to tho fact that so many
have taken advantage of our offer
to take off the penally and
costs of 121 and 1922 delinquent
taxes the City Commission has
ordered that lliis privilege be extended
to include 10211 taxes also
if paid before January 1st
This is a very great accommodation
given the delinquent tax pay
ers in view of the laet that Lhe
City has the power to lay claim
to the property to collect these
axes and costs

SHEEP A SOURCE of PROFIT
It was our pleasure recentlj
while in the Northwest part of
the county to see a flock of slice
that interested us very much
The flock consists of about
1000 head of choice animals and
belongs to J H Francy who takes
great pride in them and well he
may for they are a source of profit
to him and1 as he is prepared
to handle them they cause him little
trouble Wool is valuable and
commands a good price Lambs
are grown into profits in a very
short time and always bring a
good price
Lets have more sheep more
Jersey cows more good hogs and
more hens and have money all
