PARTING SHOT
Now the fierce banners of my ar
dent hate
Of you are bravely dancing on the
wind
That blares by me from the infernal
gate
Whither we doubtless journey—
(having sinned
Briskly as any in ttys bawdy world)
And since I know that I shall meet
you there
1 now make ready—under flags un
furled
My gallant cavalcade of sins pre
pare
And when at length comes tne ap
pointed day
l shall ride hellward proudly, colors
flying,
On the Dread Horse, nor tarry by
the way—
I pledge you I will waste no time In
dying—
To search you out, and in your (ace
to fling
My glove, before all Hell's high
gathering

BUTTER PRICES
LOWEST IN 25
YEARS
If each of the six million
farm families would use one
extra pound of butter per
week for five weeks—the
30 million pounds of butter
now on cold storage would
be cleaped out and butter
prices would advance im
mediately.
A survey shows that our
farmers are buying butter
substitutes in spite of the
fact that these substitutes
are lacking in the protective
vitamin found in genuine
butter.
EAT YOUR OWN BUTTER
INSTEAD OF SUBSTI
TUTES
AND PRICES WILL GO
UP IN A HURRY.
SAME THING IS TRUE
ABOUT COTTON
Here in this county we
make butter and cotton,
why not eat it and wear it.
