Editor's Note.: It is interesting to
note that only 20 per cent of the
farms in Macon county are operated
by tenants. In .many counties -of the
State more than 80 per cent of the
farms are operated by renters. While
this speaks well for the county the
above statistics also show certain con
ditions that can well be improved.
For instance the farms average only
1.7 cows per farm. In a county so
Well suited for dairying this number
should be doubled at least. . uur
farms do not average one sow per
trm - Af the nresent orice of pigs
two brood sows per farm would pay
well. There are only 15 hens per
farm when there should be one hun
dred. There should likewise be many
more fruit trees in Macon.
The editor has no desire to appear
in the light of an advisor to the farm
ers. The above'are . merely sugges
tions t,o be taken into consideration.

UPSTAIRS, DOWNSTAIRS, IN MY
LADY'S CHAMBER
yes, even the back bedroom is
comfy with Heatrpla
f7HEN the children grew big enough to have a
" room of their own they were given the back
bedroom. For thanks to Heatrola, even that
room was comfy and cozy no matter how cold
it got outside.
A single Heatrola, installed in a downstairs room,
keeps every room in the house warm upstairs
and down." Distant corners that mother used to
shut off during the winter- months are now as
comfortable as the room in which the Heatrola
stands. And yet the Heatrola uses no more coal to heat
a whole house than a stove takes to heat one
room. ;
Heatrola k as cleanly in operation as it is easy to keep clean. No dust, no dirt
can get into the house its patented construction prevents that
Mother is proud of the appearance of her Heatrola, toowith its vitreous
enamel finish, smooth as glass and lasting. For it looks like a handsome ma
hogany cabinet and needs no polishing or shining. All she has to do is wipe
it off with a dust cloth.
Come in and see the Heatrola let us demonstrate its many wonderful features.
