The Road To Prosperity
; Is Flanked By
a Dairy Farms
Secure agricultural prosperity,
wherever you go ,is found only
in sections where the dairy cow
reign's.
This section of ours can be
come as prosperous as any oth
er if we’ll go stronger into
dairying. And to do that, we
should start with small herds
of cows from ‘high producing
strainsraise an ample supply
of leguminous hay and feed
liberal quantities of a balanced
concentrate ration in amounts
proportional to production.
A steady year 'round market
for your dairy products is as- _
sured by our organization.

them, to bake bread, to can salmon,
to roast coffee, to ship and truck
all those foods to thousands of
stores . . . and to do all this on so

night told Mr. Webb it is really the
best picture ever shown at his
theatre. That is the judgment of a
number of discriminating film fans
Many liked It better than “Cocoa

tonishing hit. It is a talking, ring

is the sort of picture that appeals
to everyone. Coming to the Webb
next week, is the biggest and be^t
of them all—“The Gold Diggers o.*

THE LIQUIDATION OF A DEBT
GIVES A THRILL OF
Satisfaction
A GOOD FARMER, who usually needs
accommodation during the spring And
summer, came in the bank a few days ago
and PAID IN FULL all of his notes for
supplies and fertilizers, and after thank
ing for the accommodation, he remarked
that it made him feel mighty good to be
OUT OF DEBT
and further remarked that he hoped to be
able to manage his affairs next year with
out v
GOING IN DEBT
saying; “I have made a good crop this
year and I don’t intend to let my money
get away from me by buying everything
under the sun that comes along. I have
started a deposit account today and I am
going to have ‘money in the bank* from
now on.”
THIS MAN could be well termed a
WISE MAN. HIS POLICY OF PAYING
UP HIS DEBTS and THEN BUILDING
UP A CASH RESERVE IN THE BANK
IS A MOST EXCELLENT EXAMPLE
to follow. We hope many people in Cleve
land county will follow his example and
put the CLEVELAND COUNTY FARM
ER on a sound financial basis.
