Local Notes
CEPHAS SPRING PICNIC.
Last Thursday, July 11th, this
Local gave their annual picnic at Mr.
S. P. Cooper’s. Other locals and also
the farmers were asked to join us
and bring their wives and children.
The result was that before 10:30 a
large crowd had assembled in the
lovely grove, which is an ideal place
tor a picnic, and everyone seemed
to be in just the humor to enjoy an
outing.
A table had been constructed to
accommodate the entire crowd, and
It fairly groaned beneath the weight
of the many good things on it. There
Was fresh lamb, shote, fried chicken,
delicious country cured ham, home
blade bread, pickles, salads, deviled
aggs, etc. The sweets were as var
ied and tempting as the first course
The weather was pleasant and made
It an ideal day to spend in the woods.
There was plenty of lemonade and
Ice water for everybody all day. A
number of the prominent business
nien of Henderson were there and
none appeared to enjoy it more, and
they agreed that Cephas Spring
Union knew how to have an' up-to-
date picnic. The speaker that was
expected failed to come, and Mr. J.
B. Hoover and Lawyer T. M. Pit-
nian, of Henderson, made very good
talks.
Brother A would, after Primi
tive custom, give the exhortation. Of |
course I learned later it’s the light
ning that kills, still it’s natural when
we see the former to expect the lat
ter. Well, I see the goat looking, so
I’ll close. I would advise, if he gets
this, you must see that he masticates
it well, lest your office be minus a
goat for the future.

Extract from write-up in Reliable
Poultry Journal after watching the
“Wonderful Work” of OCULIM for
two years:
At the Madison Square Garden
Show this year the Hancock Inocu-
latum Co., of Salem, Va., had a dis
play booth and demonstrated the
woith of “OCULUM.” The pres
ident of the company took the
writer up on one ot the balconies
and showed him a game hen in
coop No. 2340 which had won sec
ond. At the Palace show two weeks
before, this hen was nearly dead.
Three doses of OCULUM were ad
ministrated to her. At the Garden,
OCULUM also cured a fine Dorking
cockerel that had been imported
from England and that “went oh”
in the show.
Already, in fact over a year ago, such
good men as Messrs Hawkins, Latham,
?radley, Fishel, .tc., had un
qualifiedly endoised OCULUM and this
year the Hancock Inoculatum Co. came
into the biggest show in America and
began at once actually to cure the birds.
Price per bottle 11.00 and 50c at your
dealers or by mail. Sample 10c by mail
only. Money back if not satisfactory.
