Br T. F. SCGREW. New York <aty. The brnnxe turkey undoubtedly holds tbe post of honor among:fowls of Its kind, it probably originated from a crons between the wlid and the tame turkey. Its beautiful rich plumage and Its else have come from Ito wild progenitor. To maintain these desir­ able qualities crosses are continually made. In this way t^e mammoth sire has been gained.

Scald out tbe drinking vessels every few days and k<cp them as clean as possible. The hens should always have a dost bath handy, winter and summer. This will help keep the fowls free from Bee. A little salt nnd pepper mixed with tbe mash Is good for the bena. An unsuspected draft striking tbe fowls at night while on tbe perches Is responsible for many a ease of cold In the bead and incipient roup. Stop up tbe cracks hi the henhouse.

The । corn affords them shade, anil they wal­ low In the soft earth, eat the Ifwer leave* and suckers and keep the corn i well cultivated. They will get sum* of ■tbe lower ear*, but on th** whole the ' crop will be about as large ns if the । bens dW rot occupy tbe yard.

Always luive a full wa­ ter supply near at hand. Waterfowl always «at a little, then drink a little This they keep up until fully satisfl*d. An Inexhaustible supply of green food .'s an ntmoluto necessity for the raising if geese. Nothing is more easily raised when once hatched than the young gi»tings. After they bare become a few days old they may -wander with the mother goose, provided they are watched a little when they go about the water or storms come ui»on them.

This year with a large increase in membership, enthusiasm run­ ning high and a bank account suf­ ficient to meet all obligations, our show promises to be one of the largest and best in the state.

This fowl when right Is nearly blue In plumage color, the shade resem­ bling that of the blue Andaloalan. the tamale being much lighter tn color than the male. The standard calls for a plumage cokr slaty or ashy blue, sometimes doited with black. The standard weights are: Cock. 27 pounds; cockerel. 18 pounds; ben. 18 pouuds; pullet, 12 pounds. Disqualifying weights: Cock, lees than 18 pounda; ben, leaa than 12 pounds. Wherever any one succeeds with barnyard fowls they would grow rich from standard lived poultry. Just try It. those of you who are doing well enough with the common kinds, and see what n difference there will be be­ tween 150 eggs per hen from each hen and gpveuty or eighty from the old kind, says the Feather.

WATERMAN �Pre-Inventory Sale Our Annual January Clearing Sale Begins Thursday, Jan. 3rd and will Continue Until Saturday, Jan. 12th. The beginning of the end is at hand. Every year we have made it a rule to close out all goods in their season regardless of immediate coat or loss. This fall and winter stock has served its purpose well. We have enjoyed the best business in the history of the store. At times our patronage urged us to the utmost in order to supply the demand. This sale will go with direct loss to u3. But we care not. This merchandise must not be here when the Spring Goods tirrive. On the whole we made a fair profit and supplied our customers at satisfactory prices. This Janwary Sale will continue for 10 days only, and as some lots are in very limited quantities, we suggest that you come early in order to secure first choices. Clearing Sale on Coats. We are willing to take the loss if you are willing to take the gar­ ments. | to i off on Ladies’, Misses’ and Children’s Coats. Women’s Coats Our business in this depart­ ment was immense.

FIFTY-FIRST YEAR Ghe Complete Lovemaker ssmer, HASTINGS CIRCULATION ,000 An experiment station worker sends some interesting Information about a tot of chickens. He says: "Early to Juty we had an Incubator hatch come off, and the chicks, forty­ seven to numtier, were given to three hens. One, a Brahma, was given twen­ ty, one Orpington ben fifteen and a Barred Kock ben twelve. All were placed on free range. The Brahma was placed on grass aud fed nothing but soft food for the flr»t two weeks, the food being equal parts oatmeal, cornnical and bran, with 23 p-’r cent meat meal. Thia was fed twice a day and the ather two feeds bread and milk. At the end of two weeks we fed tvo maCiea dolly, hard grain In morning and sprontad wheat at night •'The other two hens were put In tbe middle of a twenty acre field, and a hopjHT filled with cracked wheat and cracked corn and coarse beef scrapu mixed with the grain wss put In esch coop. They were only visited twice a week. All tbe hens were given full liberty after five days, nnd one roault te tho cornfield chicks are ns wild as partridges; have to crawl up on bands and knees to get even a gilmpoe of them. NoUng that they were growing right away from the others that were band fed, I went out ouc evening with Y2UNG WORK FOR NIMBLE FINGERS Cut a piece of stiff colored paper right Inches square.

Some may be Interested tn knowing how we feed for aloe, says an old breeder. We induce exercise, but feed plentifully and make the diet as varlud as possible. Milk, meat, grain nnd green food form the main baste of our feeding. Skimmed milk at 0 cents per gallon Is a cheap food, and we also use quantities of thick sour mtlk. Prac­ tically no corn Is fed our young stock until six months old. Bran and mid­ dlings are n dolly portion of the diet and arc kept before the chicks nt oil times to a dry state, but sometimes we moisten thia mixture for a change. Have found whole oats soaked In skim milk n great grortb producer, but they should not be fed until chicks reach the age of six weeks. Charcoal, grit and cool water are not forgotten. Tbe demand for labor on. poultry farms Ik, of course, strictly limited and is confined almost entirely to experi­ enced workers, although on tbe large establishments a targe number of men and women are employed to plucking, drawing and packing, and if this is not skilled labor It Is something akin to It and is not the kind of work a person could take to without some experience and practice.

When yonr heart beats slow and the blood is not coursing through the arteries at its regular gait, your doctor prescribes a little tonic or perhaps a stimulant. Just now the “slow heart beat” is evident in our business—it always is at this time of the year—trade is not coming in great quantities as it was a month ago. So our “Store Doctor” has prescribed a stimulant. We know of nothing that will stimulate late business so much as rock bottom prices—and here they are.

But this nwensnry nppvndage of the ani­ mal ta of tbe utmost linjiortance to it end calls for considerably more thought end atttotlou than are ever devoted to It, says'tbe American Sheep Breeder. Tbe nuimaJx may be limping about or crawling ou their knees, *but the owner of the flock may nerer look Injo the cause of tbh disability, for we may the sheep do not »t tbeir own wflF thu* move about with difficulty and lutiu. But tbo owiicr of n flock cantot neglect I hl* inatter safely or he may lose a sheep now and then, with vain regrets that ho did not attend to it before. This neglect ta to Ihj avoid­ ed In ever? way, for, as the ancient saying goes, "Nu fool, no shevji.” Sheep travel many mllre oi day when on pas­ ture >n efforts to gather the bent uf Che herbage, Aud they should be helped rather than Impeded tn this praiseworthy occupation.

No Change Necessary In Rexall Remedies The new Pure Food Law requires every pat­ ent medicine manufacturer to tell just what dan­ gerous drug is in his medicine. Certain period­ icals interested in patent medicine reform, hate declared that the formulas of many patent medi­ cines will have to be changed before the manu­ facturers will dare conform with this law. These periodicals also declare that the public will never know of these changes, and never know what these remediesformerly contained. ® This suspicion, however, cannot rest upon Rexall Remedies. You • have .absolute proof that Rexall Remedies have not been changed to con­ form with the new Pure Food Law. locavse you knew tltefformulas of thestremodiesJouryears ago! The Rexall formulas were never secret. The thousand Rexall druggists have always known all the Rexall formulas and given them to every cus­ tomer who asked for them. < No one Rexall Remedy was ever claimed to be; a “cure-air—each of the 300 remedies is de­ signed to cure a certiin human ill—and docs it. These SOU remedies were selected from among thousands because they were the .most reliable anil successful cures in the world. Far from wishing to conceal the formulas of these remedies, we are proud to tell just what they are, and al­ ways have been. That's where the Rexall plan goes further To safeguard you than does the Pure Food Law. Even now you’ll only know the dangerous drugs in other patent met ” ’ ’ rdicines, while iyou have always ’ ’ fpritiula * ’ of Rex been able to know the complete all Remedies! Tiie Rexall guarantee has been the greatest evidence of the sincerity back of the Rexall Rem­ edies. For four years Rexall druggists have offered to return the money to any one who brought back an empty R exall bottle or package and said they were not satisfied. We, as one of die Rexall druggists, feel a gen­ uine satisfaction in having been able to supply this community for four years with tw line of medicines which the United States Govern­ ment by its new Pure Food Law shows were always trade right and sold right, and have de­ served every bit of the faith you have had in them. The Pure Food Law may necessitate changes in other medicines, but it only endorses Rexall Remedies.

Last year we built a tremendous business, strictly on the mer­ it of the goods and the correspondingly low prices. This year we are much better prepared to serve you, having more facilities for showing the goods and nearly three times the selection covering an endless variety of styles, colors and grades.

Before I wane ou To-day we want to talk to vou about “Catarrh cures” edy that we know it right—that we can back up with all our reputation for hon­ esty and square-dealing. And wouldn’t you rather buy that kind of a remedy? Wouldn’t you rather hold us responsible than to hold no one responsible? We are right here, right where you can get at us every day in the week, right where one false move on our part will bring upon us your condem­ nation. the loss of your friendship, ynnr patronage, your influence. Can we afford to tell you anything that you will learn later is not absolutely true? Are you not safer in taking our word for-the merits of an article, than vny are to rily the printed statement of a pa. tent mediciii, manufacturer, whom you never even m a »nd probably never will? Common sense mv-»» emphatically teHs you that we cannot affbro . . ,jCpar. ,ne haifa breadth from the rigid ti..’.j, " None of us can deny that there is „uch a disease known as "catarrh." Those who hare it. or who have had it, know that it is one of the hardest diseases to • During the past few months we have been publishing what some of our good friends have called "heart-to-heart talks" on patent medicines. That name suits us all right—"heartto-heart talks" is just w*hat we have intended. There can’t be anything more serious to a sick man or sick woman than his ailment and the remedies he or she takes to cure it. Our talks have been "heart-to-heart.” Even- word we have printed has been written in absolute earnestness and sin­ cerity, and judging from what ouf cus­ tomers tell ns. we have not been talking in vain. We are convinced that our frankness has been appreciated, and that our suggestions have been welcomed— which naturally encourages us to conTo-day, and perhaps for some time to come, we want to talk about that big class of remedies known generally as *'catafrh cures.” • Broadly speaking these are the patent medicines that have been the chief tar­ gets for the attacks of the “Ladies* Home Journal,” “Collier’s Weekly” and other magazines which are waging such a lively warfare against patent medicine abuses. As we have pointed out in prerious talks, it is not our business to pass judg­ ment on the crusade of these wellknown. highly-respected publications. The pphlic alone must be the judge and jury. Our business, as we see it, is to carry in s?ock*>3 complete line of {latent medicines, and to sell those medicines at the lowest possible price. . We sell hundreds—yes, thousands of bottles of so-called "catarrh cures,” and know nothing of their ingredients. The manufacturers advertise them, the public demands them; we order them from the manufacturers," and sell them at the low­ est price. That is absolutely as far as our knowledge goes. The manufacturer keeps lus formula a secret It may be good, or it may not—we don’t know, and we have no means of finding out. Naturally, we would rather sell a rem- Perhaps the worst thing about catarrh is its prevalence. Almost everyone— especially in a climate like ours—hak catarrh in some form or another. That is what has made the “catarrh cure”, busities* so profitable. There are so manv thousands of cases nf the disease and it is so hard to cure, that tHe patent medicine manufacturers ha%*e reiped a harvest in preparing remedies that appeal to this large class of sufferers. One of the most serious things aSout catarrh is that it breaks down the systerfi, so that the sufferer becomes a pr*r to other diseases. This fact has led ther proprietors of so many “catarrh cures” to advertise their remedies as a specific for almost every disease tinder the sun. We have ONE catarrh cure that we are willing to say to you; “We know this is all fight. Take it home and use it, with the full assurance that if it does not cure you, you can bring it back to us and w?e will promptly' refund your money.” That catarrh cure is Having sold niy fsrm. 1 One h.1f miles aonA of Na* Wednesd Sale Comtnei JJatambihc* frame lever drag, new Wtard plaw. nearly new siMl land roller, nearly new Pair lie!knap logging alMgh*. new Balknap wagon, naarly new b“‘” - audleui'o wa, wovaleriiL.- at MacV reJuvciuUlon, Mxne-of tbe okler one* de­ claring ba wax <kring work, he tad dune thirty yearn before.

Second.—That corn intended for seed should be allowed to thoroughly ma­ ture on dio'stalk before husking. Thin!.-That tbe best results are ob­ tained when stored In a dry and thor­ oughly ventilated place. * Fotirth.—That cold does not injure the vitality of corn when It Is thor­ oughly dried and kept dry; but. on the other hand; If allowed b> gather mob­ lure, freexlng will reduce the vitality and may destroy It entirely. fifth.—That It Is unwlw to store ued corn In barreb or b<>xi*s. as It will gather moisture, even though It ap­ pears to be thoroughly dry.

ANY different makes of so-called chilled plows have teen brought out, and a large number having enjoyed a brief sale, have been forced to give wav to the superior merits of the OLIVER. Others which are yet on the market claim to be as good as the OLIVER, but none of them claims to be better. The only safe plan is to buy the HEN about to purchase a plow weigh eveiy fact well. Remem­ ber that the M W GENUINE OLIVER is the original chilled plow, and that it is here to stay. The fortunate possessor of an OL­ IVER PLOW has no difficulty to con­ tend with in the matter of extras, as the agents constantly carry’ in stock a complete line of perfectly fitting dupli­ cate parts. These are easily and quick­ ly procured, and the work goes on without delay. These facts are strong recommendations to the thrifty farmer and should promptly settle the question in favor of the OLIVER. GENUINE OLIVER at the start and then no question can arise as to the quality of your plow. More than 2,000,000 Oliver Chilled Plews are in actual use, aiid they are warranted to do better work and more of it with the same amount of* draft * ' than any other plows in use.

A Few Words About Plows nitrogen results from this practice. After tbe summer crop Is taken off the processes of nitrification go on In the soil, especially if stable manure baa been used. Nitrification means the process by which nitrogen is made soluble or available. When made over Into this form It is quite easily wash­ ed out of tbe soil and lost When soil is left bare after harvest considerable loss will occur In thia way, but when wtue living Crop Is growing on tbe ground this new crop will obtain most of tbe nitrogen und save it for us. This nitrogen problem is tbe most im­ portant thing on our farms We must buy it In one form or another, and It is constantly struggling to get away from us.

You can do almost anything with common words. No matter how tame aud lifeless they look standing In etupld rows as if they didn't know enough to come ln_ when It rained, they can be made to, dance like Imps, to frolic like fairies, to float uugohrlse on light wines, to glow like tiro spirits. They can do things that make the ordinary bits of profanity look like feeble scarecrow* stiffened up with a feuee stake.

Very frequently shirt waist boxes may be bought at reduced price* lu tbe slwpa. owing perhaps to the coverings, which do not always suit tbe taste of the purchaser or harmonise lu tone with the furnishings of tbe room for which they are desired. Three loxes nre very useful not only for shirt waists, but for children's short clothes and shoes, aud are often used for patch boxes. They can be easily roupholstcred nnd made more fanciful with little trouble. One Been recently bad a box plaited flounce or valance around tbe box of a dainty phttcrued cretonne, and tbe lid was covered smoothly with tba same. Tbe Inner lining was of self colored chintz corresponding with the dominant shade in the cretonne. Sometimes rollers or earners nre used to glv» more height to the box when It Is to be used as a seat. In this capacity It'is well to stuff the lid with hair or cotton, and the edges may be flnulted witb n narrow furniture gimp. Wallace Chilson Is much better at this writing.

Inside of three yean, when work now under wny la completed, it will be pos­ sible to travel m a railroad car all the way from New York or Chicago to Ha­ vana. This will bb brought about by tbe construction of a seagoing rail­ road which will run from key to key over tike 154 ml Im separating Miami and Key West From the Inner point It Is only 100 miles to tbs Cuban capi­ tal. and across this stretch of water tbe trains will be ferried on mocater floats capable of bolding thirty cars. Thia project Is an extension of the Florida East Coast railroad, owned by Henry M. Flagler. It was shirted last year, and np to date the'grading of tho section of tbn road on the mainland and tbe construction of some of the viaducts have Imcn completed. Some Idea of the boMness of tbe un­ dertaking may be gained from Ute fact that from Long key to Couch key It Is Fur Kale—S aert-a one mild north of 10,400 feet, across Knight's key chan­ monument.

The vlnducto will consist of re­ enforced concrete arch spans nnd piers, nnd to insure safety and comfort tho rails will be laid thirty feet above low water. Eventually It will be a double track road all the way from Miami to Key Wert. Aside from Its attractiveness to trarelers, this line acroaa the Florida keys is already being regarded In the com­ mercial world os a factor in tbe future development of both Florida and Cuba. About 4,000 men are engaged in thia latest Flagler enterprise.

A great advantage of silage ns a food for sheep consists in Its cheapness.

We cannot afford to list yonr property and let it remain on our books indefinitely. We must sell property or go out of business. We assure yonw e are not. going out of business. On-, the other band our busi­ ness is steadily increasing. We take charge of the sale of your property in a live, up-to-date way. and we don’t let it rest until the cash is turned over on the sale of it We are advertising in agricultural papers of large circula­ tion in Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Penn., New York, Michigan and other states, for the purpose of finding buyers for Barry Co. Real Estate. We have not only made many sales re­ cently as the result of thia advertising, to parties who came here from outside this county and state because they row our advertising, but we now have several hundred names of in­ quirers on our books, who are interested in Barry County Real Estate, and may be classed as prospective buyers. We get letters from new ones every day. Now Mr. Farmer, if you wanted to sell your crop of wheat or your stock, yon would bring it to market or notify the man whose .business it is to buy and sell wheat and stock, would yoti not/ You would not tbink of asking your brother farmer to buy your wheat or live stock; certainly not. You would take your wheat to tlie elevator, and your stock to the butcher or shipper. Then if you want to sell your farm what is the best thing to do? Why. put it in the hands of men whose business it is to sell farms—list it with your up-to-date, hustling real estate firm, where people come to enquire for such property. We can get a better price for property than yon can. You may ask: “How is that?” Well we first find out what kind of property the prospective buyer wants, and how much money he Is prepared to invest Then we are in posi­ tion to show him the property that answers his wishes. And you know anyone will pay more for something that just suits him than he would for other property that might be equally valuable, but which does not exactly suit him. THAT IS THE REASON. There never was a thing created but what some one wanted it Our business is to find the someone who wants to buy your farm, and if you will list your farm with us, we will, within reasonable time find the someone who wants it We invite you to write or call atjour office and list yonr farm.

That wax Iri the Mediterranean Sea. near Malta, when the most trrriffic storm ot his entire service wits encountered. A huge wave struck th-ship causing It to career, badly. George happened to be on duty out­ side when the wave struck. The sud­ den tilting of the ship threw him heavily towards the upper works and he bad presence of mind enough to grub onto a heavy Iron railing And it was lucky that h- did- for about SO fret of the big wave came down on top of hitn and would have thrown him overboard had it not been for hls firm grasp on the ratling.

HENRY SMITH “Last year I gave you my reasons for leaving tbe Trust and taking up the Johnston mowers and binders. The re­ sults of my change have been very satisfactory to me, and I am better satisfied, than ever that I was right. The Johnton machines have given jost as good satisfaction as the Trust machines, and I am able to save you $20 on a binder aud $5 on a mower, without cutting my profit. This is surely worth something to you—a saving of 20 to 25 per cent is worth considering. “Now, yon will naturally ask the question as to how this can lie made—this reduction in price—and atill give yon equally good machines and service. My answer is, by cat­ ting out a lot of unnecessary expense. The Trust employe an army of men. who draw large salaries, and board at expen°ive hotels, all of which costs the Trust thousands of dollars. This expense has to be added to tho cost of ma­ chines, and every farmer who buys them must help pay it. I do my own work and iny expenses are light. "Further, the actual profit ou harvesting machinery to any dealer in agricultural implements is very small, in­ deed: profits in the business are I not alone what. caused me to make the change, but the fact that my business was likely to be controlled by a foreign corporation, who wish­ ed to place me in a position where they could dictate. They are continually taking on new lines, and if you and I give them our patronage, and all farmers do the same, it will not be long before they will own the earth. ’ ••( :ri \ou afford to do it? "It’s all np to you. If you do hot buy their gooJk they cannot live: if you do. then you encourage them to go ahead. Continue this patronsge. aud how long before they will have driven oat all competition, enabling them to ‘boost* the priced which they are likely to do. and which you will then have to pay. There are equally good lines outside of the Trust which yon may buy. "From the fact that you. the farmers of Barry County, have patronized rim liberally the past reason, I feel en­ couraged to go ahead, aud I ask further careful considera­ tion of the subject I most sincerely thauk you for your liberal support.’’ B l»e given.

Paint cannot hide ite defects. The wear isn’t in that kind. It isn’t the Satisfaction kind. Of course we keep these cheaper grades for the few who consider only the price. But we never urge a customer to buy them. On the contrary we advise against it. There’s Profit and Satisfaction to the customer who buys the better grades of lumber. They cost a little more, but the difference is there, and the difference is less than yqu think, while the difference in wear is greater than you’re apt to think. Behind the lumber you buy at this yard are the years of square dealing and satisfaction since it first began—and it’s the oldest lumber yard in the County. Phone 224 TOMLINSON LUMBER GO. Hastings.

In many localities tbo guinea hen Is aonsldercd as a kind of a novelty or aulsance about the place. It 0oes not teem to be thoroughly well understood that thc eggs of the guinea ben are 1 highly valued by bakers for cake mnktng and that tho young guinea fowl will bring the bigbest price of nny broiler upon the market, says the Feather. If more attention were given to the selection of tbe breeding stock, preventing too dose Inbreeding and providing a separate house away from tho chickens for the guinea fowls, their rultlvntion might become more general ind profitable. Guinea heus .may be taught to live almost tho same as thicken hens. Tbe trouble ex|»erlcnced from keeping guinea fowls In buildings ar poultry houses Is the overpowering .nfiuence of mites and Hee upon them. They are much more cnally destroyed by lice and tutu's than the chickens. The young of the guinea hen scarcely exist at nil when once attacked by lice jr mites, which quickly destroy them. Guinea bens live out In the open, fiulld their uesta or select their nests under an old stump, a stope or In some ant of tbe way place. When once they locate their nest and lay a few eggs therein they continually remain about the locality, and It Is not difficult for At night they are (cd on -half ibe same fetal n* In tbe morning, this bo tog warmed on wld days " ' parch tbe corn black, and the place of ehnreo.*! to a c-rtoin exFresh. not cold, water and plenty << grit are. kept Irefore the bets all tbe time.

For over a month he had diligently applied to bis bald head a new preparation he had bought as bein^ the greatest hair restorer that had ever been discovered. Every morning the first thing he did was to look in the glass to see if any­ thing had sprouted during the night. To his great disap-. pointinent not a spear of hair appeared. But be did notice that in two places there seemed to be small swellings,—hard­ ly noticeable at first, but gradually increasing day by day. until there were two large bumps nearly the size of oranges on the top of his head.

After looking at the bumps he looked worried. 1 Bring that bottle of hair restorer I sold you; I want to examine it” Without any delay he went home and immediately return­ ed with the bottle. The druggist almost grabbed the bottle from his hand. Un looking at the contents, one smell at the nose was enough. ‘Did I sell you that hair restorer?” "You certainly did,” replied the now astonished man. "Why,” said the druggist, ‘the bottle contains my famous bust developer.” NOW! What we all want is results, to reach the objective point, to get what we go after.

T. Codper that are to be published in this paper. G, The Cooper medicines have made a remarkable re­ cord in the leading cities of the United States during the past two years and young Mr. Cooper has been the subr ject of much newspaper comment. G. Mr. Cooper has met and talked with thousands of sick people in his visits to almost every large city in the country'. ' G, He is noted as a man of very few words and tells briefly in these articles what his^reparations are doing for sick people and why they 'have been successful wherever introduced. CL Mr. Cooper’s theory is that one half of all human ills is caused by stomach ’trouble, and the wonderful suc­ cess of his preparations in the treatment of stomach disorders, kidney and liver complaints, rheumatism, etc., seems to have proven this claim. C. Some time ago we secured the agency for these cele­ brated medicines.

There will be double the usual number of exhibits and I amusements, hundreds of which are new and were never before shown at any fair. Every building will be filled to its utmost capacity. Every inch of room for exhibits will be taken, and the total number of exhibits will almost double that of any previous year. The grounds will be open every evening. There will be something doing; every minute. Every known conveni­ ence has been.installed at a great expense for the comfort of the people whp will attend this great exhibition. The live stock land poultry exhibits will be equal to that shown at any fair in the United States. The best stock in the State and a number of show animals from other States will be shown. One of the interesting fea­ tures will be the live stock parade, in which all prize winners will take pan. \ The fruit exhibit promises to be one of the best ever shown, many of the more prominent fruit growing coun­ ties have arranged to make special county exhibits. Every available inch of space in the Machinery Sec­ tion has been taken, and many new machines and devices never before shown, will be seen at the State Fair. The vehicle exhibit will be larger than ever. The race programme covers a period of six days and the purses total $9,600, as follows: | this state.

You’ll Gome Again VUE If you have ever used “Purity”, “the flour that’s all pure flour”, and try some other brand represented to lie “just as good” you’ll come back. This flour is becoming more and more the popular standby in the homes of the people of Hastings and Barry County. “PURITY” FLOUR Is made in a mill that is up-to-the-minute in its equipment, and by a miller whose experience has been the very best. It is made from the beet selected fcrain and perfectly milled by the best machinery. Why shouldn’t it be right/ Why should not the best cooks of Hastings sing the praises of PURITY flour as they do/ And you’ll join the chorus, and be happy to do so, if you will but give the flour a trial.

Opportunity Tlie opportunity has been offered every ownfer of real projierty in Barry (Jo. for the last'two years to cooperate with ine to make a market for your Farm or Home and to get a better price for your property. It has been proverbial for years that Barry county Farm values were, much lower than farm property of equal value in any other part of the state and almost impossible to sell even at the lowest figure. Article after article appeared in the Banner from people who had traveller! in other sections of the countin' depre­ cating the ruinous low price Barry county farmers were getting for their land. There was a reason and simple enough too. you had no sales agent, no cooperation, no system for selling Barry county Farm 'property. You had no buyers, except local and they were looking to buy for less than they sold, continually ‘"bear­ ing the market”. This Barry county farmers well know. •Ilxviug bad a wide experietieo in the Real 8*uie burines* for a number {of year» in lhe weal, I opened my Real Estate oflico in this city two years ago and commenced an aggrmive campaign of local advertising to convince the farm owners of the advantages and Importance to them of a wide awake advertising and huAtliug Real Estate agency in the county, and get theub to list their farms with me. 1 also oomnieuced a vigorous and very expensive oampaigti of foreign advertising to secure buy­ ers for Barry County farms. The suctw I have attained nearly every property owner in Barry county know*. I have sold nearly OtXI of Barry County farms and homes without a diseaUsfied buyer or seller. I have put nearly all my profits back into the business and I have done Udo for yon There are not any ten iarm owners wlthlh a radius of 15 mllesof Hastings but what have profiled In the rise of their prop­ erty, through my efforts to a greater amount than 1 have made out of the btfsintaa myself. Now Mr. Farmer, ibis I wish to consider a personal letter to you. Our demands , for farms at present are greater than the number we have bated. We want a greater variety and wa must have them if we’cotitlnue lu business here and ■ontlnue to create a better market far your real estate. We must have your hearty cooperation. I on eannot sell your own farm successfully as a rule, no more than you can cry your own auction sale. Thia Real Estate busloeu after all is only a matter of association of property owners, ap pointing a firm who have equipped themselves to advantageously and expeditiously sell tlielr property for them. You go into any country where farm property is being bought and sold extensively and bring­ ing good prices, and you fiud it is brought about by . the hearty cooperation of property owner:; with their Real Estate agencies. In Ohio. Indiana. liltaola, and the West, scarcely one farm in ten but what is listed with a Real Estate agent. No one thinks of selling his own property. Why, time and again we have bad people visit us to look our county over and found what they would buy, have said: 1 have my property listed and will be sold before long, or 1 will go home and list tny farm and when sold wlir come and buy here. Now, we have at the jirwenl less than one-' hundred farms on our list after two years of bard am! persistent hustling, advertising, square-dealing, ond our methods of doing busi­ ness, a proven 'succees. Wo certainly should have several time* that number <>n our list, an there are more than five hundred farms lu Barry county, the owners of which at the present time desire to sell.f Now, if you will consult your own best Interest, you will list your property Rememta'r that Bu»by Brv. will have *lx chair* during the fair, and begin work at Acklei' college.

A lady’s fold watch was picked up on State street and brought to this office ciune nnd th® watch *>s restored to her. showing that ah® knew where to come to recover her watch. Thia Is true ot Bl! those who know anything about the BANNER Wont Column. It you have any stock or other ar­ ticles to anil Ju«t advertise them In the BANNER Want Column and it Is a settled fact that yotf wUl find a ready purchaser' and if you have lost any­ thing. just advertise it and In the ma­ jority of cases the articlr* are re­ stored to their owners.

They have struck the boys just right;—For the snappy style and splendid fitting qualities of the FITWELL Suite and Overcoats and the modest prices we ask for them make a combi­ nation that can’t be beat. Little variations in length or lapels—Little finishing touches such as cuffs, lap seams on trousers and the like give a satisfying range of styles, and no matter what your limitations of price we can suit you every time. And what’s still more to the point you can rest'assured that these clothes are going to HOLD their style and shape. That’s a feature of FITWELL CLOTHES that’j worth thinking about YrAi are likely to find your choice among the Velour, Cassiniere*, Worsteds or Serges. There’s a great range to choose from. �Take Your Prescription 4626 NUGGETS FROM PRES. ROOSMLFS SPEECH Go-carts Must Go!

Every article is as represented and if you ask why the prices are so low, our only answer is that our business is conducted on a CASH basis; nothing comes to our store or leaves it but what CASH goes or comes with the transaction. Add to this the fact that we are one of a syndi­ cate of fifteen Michigan buyers, buying everything in enormous lots, you have the thing in a nut­ shell.

The officer or director, who know­ ingly puta his name to a false report, is guilty of a state’s prison crime. Every bank organized under the laws of Michigan, is examined twice every year by a State bank examiner, whose report is a public record. The law gives this examiner absolute control overall books, papers and assets of every name and nature while making his examination. Every bank organized under the laws of Michigan, must as provided by a law passed last spring, be examined twice each year by its own board of directors, or a committee chosen by them. The report of these directors is a public record, and the making of A false report is perjury. . Every Savings bank organized under the laws of Michigan, must invest at least half of its savings deposits in real estate mortgages or approve^ Honda—the very best of security. Any bank organized under Michigan laws, is therefore pre-eminently Hound. These laws have been much improved since the panic of ’93. But even then but one State bank failure was recorded in Michigan during that panic. This bank is copducted on the soundest and most approved hanking princi­ ples.

Unquestioned Security Every bank organized under the laws of Michigan, makes a sworn report to the Banking Commissioner four times a year. The officer or director, who know­ ingly puts Ids name to a false report, js guilty of a state’s priaou crime. Every bank organized under the-Jaws of Michigan, is examined twice every year by a State bank examiner, whose report is a public ,record. /The law gives this examiner absolute contml overall books, papers and assets of every name ami nature while making his examination. Every bank organized under the laws of Michigan, must, as provided by a law (tassed last spring, be examined twice each year by-its own board of director-,, or n committee ooosen by them. The report of these directors is a public record, and the making of a false report is perjury: Every Savings bank organized under the laws of Michigan, mnst invest al least half of its savings deposits to real estate mortgages or approved bonds-the very best of security. Any bank organized under Michigan laws, is therefore pre-eminently sound. These laws have been much improved since the panic of ’93. But even then but one State bank failure was recorded in Michigan during that jtanic. This bank is conducted on the soundest and most approved banking princi­ ples.

If the datee are forgotten the BANNER can be readily secured and the dates remembered. The Auction Bill is out of date. Mud, rain and the irrepressible Kid put the bill out of business. The BANNER goes into the homes, and people keep it be­ cause they want it. BANNER Auction Sale Announcements draw people from all over the county.

Burton &amp; Co. were listed as the proprietors of the "Republican Banner", which first appeared here on May 1, 1856, with Dr. C. S. Burton as the publisher and Norman Bailey as editor.<br /><br />Publication office was on the second floor of the Rower Block, whose address was given as "corner of State and Church"; which corner was not specified.<br /><br />The objective of this publication was to win support for the newly created Republican party and thus counteract the influence of the Barry County Pioneer, a Democratic journal that had been published here since 1851. No copies of the first three issues of The Banner were saved.<br /><br />Make-up on the first journal corresponded with a pattern typical of most local journals then published. Page one contained a few columns of advertising, fiction (often a continued story), and a short feature of no particular news value. Page one was the "literary" page.<br /><br />Page two contained the editorial barbs, along with state news, political articles, Washington items and news of the national and territorial giovernments. Page three contained a few items of local news, sandwiched inbetween the local and foreign news.<br /><br />Page four was usually solid with advertising and as such was the editor's "bread and butter" page....Locally it was the pattern until the early 1880s.<br /><br />Several changes in ownership and management occurred during the first two years of publication, with J. M. Nevins taking over ownership interests on July 16, 1857. With the issue of May 7, 1862, "The Republican Banner" became "The Hastings Banner". Editor Nevins thought the village had developed sufficiently during the past several years to merit this recognition.<br /><br />Another major change in the management of The Banner came when Nevins sold the newspaper to George M. Dewey of Niles on March 14, 1866, who then took over as editor and publisher. Dewey, an ardent Republican and somewhat of a crusader, gave considerable space to editorial comment and party affairs and also directed pointed paragraphs against the saloons and local traffic in liquor. Dewey was the grandfather of Thomas E. Dewey, Republican presidential nominee in 1944 and 1948. Editor Dewey on May 4, 1870 changed the format (and name) of the paper to "Hastings Republican Banner". <br /><br />A fire in December 1883 burned The Banner plant (located in the middle of the block on the north side of State St. across from the courthouse). Files and back issues from August 1880 to December 1883 and the January 4, 1884 issues are missing.<br /><br />The Banner was purchased by Marshall L. Cook and George Bower on July 21, 1880. They changed the name to "The Hastings Banner". M. L. Cook soon became the sole owner and remained so until July 7, 1887 when Albert Nishern (M. L.'s brother-in-law) joined him. Albert Nishern sold his interest on November 6, 1889 to William Cook (M. L.'s younger brother).<br /><br />The Cook brothers partnership held together (56 years) ... Richard Cook followed his father into the newspaper business, and Richard's son William joined him. So the Cook family ownership continued for 85 years, from 1880 to 1974, when Richard and William sold the paper to High Fullerton. J-Ad Graphics became the owners of "The Hastings Banner" in August of 1981. Text A resource consisting primarily of words for reading.
