Car Load of Heifers
, Plans are going forward for
the car load of high grade Jer
sey heifers which will be or
dered for Gates county farmers.
It is hoped that enough farmers
will give their orders to the
Negro county agent by the end
of the week so that the order
may be senl^ in to the State Ex
tension Service on Monday,
October 25. A large number of
farmers have already given or- .
ders. This is a real opportunity
for anyone who wants a good
c&vJ to get one at a little cost.
By getting a car load of heifers,
we will save on transportation
since they will be unloaded here
in the county. Let’s remember
that no farm is complete with
out a dairy cow.
Meetings Planned
Plans have been completed
for four commuity meetings
which will be held in Gates
county this and next week.
Judge A. P. Godwin and Robin
Hood will discuss the War Bond
Drive and the Negro county
agent will speak and hold con
ferences with the farmers re
garding dairy cattle, small grain
and poultry. The dates and
places are as follows: Corapeake
'school, Wednesday, October 20
'at 9 o’clock; Reid’s Grove school,
G a tesville, Thursday, October
21, at 9 o’clock; Lebanon Grove
church, Gatesville, Friday, Octo

Training school, Sunbury, Wed
nesday, October 27, at 9 o’clock.
Be Quick To Treat
Bronchitis
Chronic bronchitis may develop If
your cough, chest cold, or acute bron
chitis is not treated and you cannot
afford to take a chance with any medi
cine less potent than Creomulsion
which goes right to the seat of the
trouble to help loosen and expel gjgt
laden phlegm and aid natur«*
soothe and heal raw, tender, inflarnlu
bronchial mucous membranes.
Creomulsion blends beechwood
creosote byspecial processwith other
time tested medicines for coughs.
’ t contains no narcotics.
No matter how many medicines
v cu have tried, tell your druggist to
sell you a bottle of Creomulsion with
the understanding you must like the
way it quickly allays the cough, per
mitting rest and sleep, or you are to
have your money back. (Adv.)

ff
66 The sooner the better, is all I can say. But I know
that until it ends, you and I' have a duty to your car that
gets more important every day...
'"Every CAR that still runs is an es
sential cog in the country’s whole
transportation scheme. As the
older cars quit, the ones still left
get more' and more essential.
“I’m not making scare-talk
when I say that even standing in
a garage most of the time, your car
gets run down. Metals corrode. Oil
gets dirty and sludgy. Grease dries
out. The battery runs down. Spark
* 'T plugs get fouled up. Radiator hose
connections go bad. Tires get soft,
so the sidewalls bend and crack.
“In these times, it's a crime to
let this happen. Because you don’t
have to! Almost anyone’s car can
see him through, if he’ll give it a
chance.
“We’re still here with everything
it takes to help protect your car,
whatever make it is. You find us
short-handed sometimes,but we’re
long on experience and good equip
ment and reliable Esso products.
“However little you drive, you
need winter oil and a winter grease
job. Your battery fit and strong.
\ our radiator tight and ready T\
with anti-freeze. Your tires checked >
over, maybe switched around to §
get the most out of them. This is
mighty important right now —to
keep your car in service for the
duration. Come on in. Right thi3
week. Winter’s getting close! ”
