Why Buick is ' “The Standard of Comparison’' It has been a fixed Buick policy always to anticipate motoring demands by developing new and advanced features of design and construction. This has been one of the many factors con tributing to Buick’s great popularity—a . popularity tangibly expressed in the fact that Buick is well on its way towards the manu facture of its two-millionth motor car. Buick recognizes it as a distinct obligation to live up to the spirit and letter of its slogan “When Better Automobiles Are Built, Buick Will Build Them”. # -IS-SWIP BROWN-BUICK SERVICE STATION, SANFORD, Distributors s Chatham, Lee, Moore and Montgomery When better automobiles are built, Buick will build ii The Best l X!,!!t 0 Money jj j | We have a full and complete stock of the best in Fur ;j niture.

CAN BE EASILY MOVED ABOUT Called the "Extra Hand on the Farm,** Because It Can Do Co Many Small Duties—Motor la J 4 H. P. In an endeavor to solve, to some ex tent, the labor problem on American farms, the General Electric Company ha s brought out a unique, yet simple, apparatus known as a power stand. It enables a small, powerful motor to be transported from place to place about the farm, mounted on a tripod. The tripod is provided with a com bination pulley, which allows either a round or a flat belt to be used. The v- . m ? wmm ? 1 fig Power Stand Operating Cern Shelter motor can also be connected directly to the farm machine which it is to drive. No new parts need be secured, but the handle of the farm machine need simply be replaced by a pulley, to enable the power stand motor to be connected up. To steady the tripod against the vibrations of the motor there is a telescoping rod whiofe allows it to be braced against the farm dftvice which it is operating and a strap, which is snapped into a screw-eye in the floor. Included with the equipment is a standard plug twenty feet of cord. The motor is of the fractional horse power type, not above one-fourth horsepower in rating. It will operate at 110 or 220 volts, 60, 50, 40, 30 or 25 cycles, alternating current, and at 110, 220 or 32 volts, direct current. Gives Farm an Extra Hand What the power stand, with its mo tor .practically amounts to is an extra hand on the farm. It can work away at one farm operation watched by a young boy, or even a woman, thus re quiring only the attendance of some one who woulT not be able to partici pate in the heavy duties of the farm. Meanwhile the ablebodied working force can carry on the pressing occu pations of the moment without being retarded by the necessity of doing the lighter work that the power stand handles. This lighter work includes such duties as operating a grindstone, a feed grinder, a corn sheller, fanning mills, cider presses, horse clippers or watering pumps. The power stand, as an "extra hand" or a farm helper whom somebody has described as "never quitting," can also run a churn, a cream ripener, a cream separator, an emery wheel or such devices as fruit graders* ice breakers, Ironing ma chines, small lathes, milk mixers, sheep shearers, sausage stutters, washing machines or pea and bean hullerj. A Lift In the Rush Season During the perennial rush season on jarm, when duties come pressing from mofft to night, the power stand answers two momentous questions: "Which job shall be done first?" and "Which man can be spared to do it?" Actual experience on farms where the power stand has so far been put into use proves the usefulness of the power stand and the timeliness of its appearance. It allows more time for other things; it releases more man power for the fields; it eliminates the vexatious interruptions which always occur when human hands undertake a task, for the tireless motor works right ahead until the work is done. The fact that it is portable and can be carried to the work, on any part of the farm, has appealed to many users. The power stand works as well if the electricity comes from an indi vidual farm lighting outfit as it does when the energy is purchased from a power company’s lines. When the Phone Rings Electricity is getting so it will an swer the telephone. A device now being tested will take a ’phone mes sage on a cylinder in case nobody an swers the call and deliver it to the subscriber when he returns. Never again "nobody home!" Electricity Grows Mightily In less than twenty years the elec tricity produced in America has In creased more than fifteen times until it is now five times greater than the energy that every man in the nation could put forth In a year, working eight hours a day. Obeisance to tke real "bear for work !" I JLiN THhi rvuwiu. Don’t ask a convalescent if he would like to have this or that to eat and drink, but prepare the delicacies and present them in a tempting way. Do not approach contagious disease with an empty stomach, nor spit be tween the sick and the fire because the heat attracts the vapor. Preven tives are preferable to pill or powder. Except by definite instruction from a skilled physician, a sick person should never be aiwakened to take me dicine, for under nearly every circum stance sleep is the first and best of nourishers and restoratives. It is na ture’s own medicine. People who are ill care very little for sweetened foods. Dishes made sav ory with salt are the most satisfy ing. Hot foods should be piping hot, and cold foods ice cold, for tSs dis eased appetite is critical. Never pre pare a dish or a drink before the sick Small portions daintily served and clean dry cups and glasses are ele ments of good nursing. Tea or milk spilled in the saucer may offend the taste of the patient and drive away the appetite so sadly in need of a re lish. Small quantities of fruit and cream custard or any delicacy, can be froz en for an invalid by placing in a bak ing powder can and packing with ice and salt in a pail. An occasional turn of the can will help matters, but is not necessary. This is worth try ing when the feeble appetite gives out altogether with the heat. If one is so unfortunate as to be sick in hot weather do not give him heavy hot food, not even rich soups, but foods which are both nourishing and cool ing- In the sick room in hot weather ice is as necessary as air, and if it can be kept there, lowers the temperature preceptibly. The Medical Times gives this rule for keeping ice without melt ing rapidly: A saucerful of shaved ice may be preserved for twenty-four hours with the thermometer at 90 degrees Fah renheit, if the following precautions are observed: Put the saucer con taining the the ice is a soup plate and cover it with another. Place the ■soup plates, thus arranged, o* 0' good heavy pillow, and cover it with ano ther pillow, pressing the pillows so that the plates are completely em bedded in them. An old jack-plane set deep is a most excellent thing with which to shave ice. It should be turn ed bottom upward and the ice shaved backward and forward over the cut ter. A nickel’s worth of whiting and a bottle of ammonia will keep silver forks, spoons and other tableware al ways bright and shining. W. R. Hearst of the Hearst publi cations says he was misquoted. One might say the chickens are coming home to roost. —Toledo Blade.
