Vol XXIV ROXBORO, NORTH CAROLINA, Wednesday Evening, May 1, 1907. v No M V.' how the telephone helps the Farmer. When our farmers are convinced that any peice of machinery or tool will do his work better, or in crease his income by doing more work, he gets it as soon as pOoSible The Bell Telephone Co. has al ways failed and refused to furnish the farmers with phones or with service, their patents have now ex pired, and since our local exchange has been in ( peration, our Mana- ger has persistantly kept . the im portance of the phone before our farmers, ottering at all times any assistance possible, The first thought that must have come to their minds as to the rural phone line vas, what good can a phone do a farmer? A natural question. It would rot plant corn, make it grow, or cut wood. A ma-, could walk to Ral eigh to the Fair but that is no reas on whv it would not be cheaper and more sensible for him to ride, as well as being cheaper and quick er. However, hundreds of farmers have recoganized the value of a phone at their home. They foresaw theimprovad condition sthat its ad option would bring to them and to their families, and the consequence is that the building of the farm lines, which began a short tinie .ago, is progressing rapidly. The farmer who has had;a phone in his house for a few momhs knows why other firmers want to spend a few dollars for a phone To them the reason is plain it is j because it saves his time, saves his money, a labor saving addition to his farm, that pays its own way and makes him a profit besides. No one will question that as a time saver the phone has no equal Time is an important item on the farm. Errand to town or to your neigh bors means loss of time lost time means lost money, lost opportuni ty.

Compared with worst, Devoe costs a third the worse your paint, the more it costs. You'll find it out when you pay for putting it on. ' Paint half your job DEVOE; paint the other half what ever you like. V - If DEVOE dosent take less gallons and cost less money, no pay. The cost of putting it on is about two-thirds of the job If DEVOE dosent wear a year, or two years or three years or four years longer-estinctly longer . and better Well give you enough to do it again.

When natures crop is calling, the successful farmercan not afford to be running errands, One of the greatest services a phone renders is in the time of sickness. More than half the time is saved in ett:ng me doctor and often precious life is saved. It is well worth the whole costin a social way to the family. A great comfort to the young people, helps to keep them at home and satisfied The advantages of the farm phone are so numerous and valu ble one can not measure or ap preciate them at their real value. The advantages of the phone can not be overestimated, because their practical uiility is unlimited, and where once in they are not to be taken out. It is only a matter of a short time when the principal points in every community will have tele phone connections in every direc tion, think over the matter andta:k to your neighbor about it.
