C. “Inside Talk” The tire trade has its “inside talk” the same as any other. Just now that talk is all of Goodyear—and the terrific pace Goodyear is setting for the field. The reason that Goodyear is stepping out ahead of ev erybody else in the tire business comes right down to the product. Right now, and for years past, Goodyear prices, values and quality have had it over all the other tire-makers like a tent. This is no secret in the trade—it’s common knowledge. The hint may be valuable to you* the next time you need tires. GOOD YEAR THE WORLD’S GREATEST TIRE Ballew Motor Co. Phone 225 Marion, N. C. Ship Live Stock by Motor Truck / For Identification Animals Should Be Marked With Paint on Hide (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) District supervisors engaged in ad ministering the federal packers and stociiyards act have observed that un businesslike methods In shipping live stock by truck have been resulting In frequent trouble, dissatisfaction, and errors, snys the United States Depart ment of Agriculture. In the handling of truck shipments received at a large public stockyard one supervisor re ports that it Is not uncommon • for trucks to arrive at the yards carrying animals of the same kind belonging to two or more owners, with none of the animals In the load marked In any way for identification and ownership. Identification of the different animals in the load Is left whony.,^ In such cases, to the memory of the truckman, who probably never saw the animals before they were loaded into his truck. Errors Sure to Occur. District Supervisor Charles S. Jones, of National stockyards, Illinois, who has closely observed this fleid of live stock marketing, states: “Under such circumstances errors are sure to occur and unfortunately such errors reflect adversely, in the minds of owners, on the handling of animals after arrival at the market, when as a matter of fact the fault was due to the unbusi nesslike procedure of allowing valu able live stock to be loaded Into a truck with other similar animals with out having them properly marked to provide positive Identification.” Supervisor Jones urges that stock owners furnish the truckman with a signed Invoice showing the owner’s name, address, name of consignee, number, species, and markings of the animuls consigned. These suggestions are the result of careful study and analysis of such shipments and are in accord with the general plans of Iden tification used in making shipments by rail. Manner of Marking. Though the manner of marking Is a matter of choice, experience shows that the use of clippers for making identifying marks such as an X, L. or T In the coats of cattle and swine is becoming increasingly popular. The marks are easily made, readily seen, and are not affected by weather or other conditions of marketing. Another common method is the ap plication of paint marks. Either of these methods is suitable for marking small consignments such as are com monly shipped by truck. National Forest Timber For Sale. Sealed bids will be received by the Forest Supervisor, U.

Clean Child’s Bowels with "California Rg Syrup” Asparagus Bed Worthy of Good Attention The asparagus bed will make good returns for any reasonable amount of time which one spends on it. Too oft en it is allowed to grow as best It can in some remote corner of the garden. The application of fertilizer, in the form of barnyard manure and some cultivation will increase the fruitful ness of the plants and make the shoots more tender and more palatable. A good dressing of barnyard manure should be worked Into the soil around the asparagus crowns as soon as the soil Is In working condition Ini the spring. Keep the weeds down during the growing season by hoeing or cul tivating. At the end of the cutting season allow the plants to grow up and form seed. Even if cross, feverish, bilious, oon> stipated or full of cold, children love the pleasant taste of “California Fig Syrup."! A teaspoonful never fails to clean I liver and bowels. j Ask your druggist for genuine “Cali fornia Fig Syrup” which has directions | for babies and children of all ages printed on bottle. Mother! You mast say “Caliiornia” or you may get an. imitation fig syrup. Plan to Make Farming Better Paying Business Farming has changed from an art in grandfather’s day to a business now. and one of the first steps toward making It a better paying business ia i the keeping of suitable accounts. Ac counts will tell definitely whether or j not the farm is accomplishing its pur- ; pose of making money so that the op- ' erator may be able to buy the many i things which modern ways of living demand. If the farm is not measuring ! up, the accounts will indicate the | changes which should be made In the w'ay of doing business. It pays better to strengthen the business at Its weak est point than to add strength at the j strongest points. PLEASANT TASTING COD-LlVEl?

The best way to render It nonporous is to puddle the concrete during construction next to tbe In side wall with a flat spade. The spoiled silage at the juncture of the stave silo with its concrete foundation Is due neither to the concrete nor to the wood, but either to a poor ledge, or the fact that the joint is not airtight laxative. They don’t mind taking it when I make it into a tea, and it quickly relieves con stipation and the bad symptoms which come from it. I can recom mend it to other moth ers, for I have found it useful in my home.
