June 22, 1915
Pauls Valley Democrat:
Short space please in your paper
for a spin on the Sheep husbandry or
industry.
The time is short for me tonight
and no apoligy is made, so all you
upsters with lots to know and little to
do quit reading here, and it will save
you time ol criticising poorly hitched
language, strung by the German,
Dutch and Bohemaa tribes
So no more dope, Next to first is
business—the reason ol the remarks. |
Nothing never happens right on the j
start in Oklahoma; it is alt laid ofi for |
the next week or year. With all ol us j
it is not the country's fault all together;
its ours if we wait to do next year
what we could this, we are one big;
year behind in businsss and so on.
LONGEST DAY
Tuesday was the longest day
of the year, being 14 hours and
18 minutes from sun rise to sun
set
So with 3 times to many irons in
the fire, John and I plunged in on the
sheep and what I am trying to tell
you, that there are pins in the cushon,
already in this sheep deal; yes and in
j the pants in places 2 big sheep
| dead all leady. But that is not bad
Tnose shetp had to be dipped in Ft.
Worth and kuffed and kicked. The
vat the lambs were dipped in was
used also for the big sheep, and two
big fisted men with big rough po'es
jammed and pushed the sheep down
in the shallow dip vat and dammed it
it aint a wonder ti at no more than 2
months are good limes for the high
mark
Breeding cattle as a rule are nought
lor and its going to cut some ice in
this years summer beel supply. A
good prime stocker cow can't come
back without a loss considering price
paid on the market this spring, but I
expect to say just as little about this
condition as possible and do my best
to keep in line and at the 3ame
time the outside word or state can
law down quality, price and meats that
will come near pleasing starvation
than I can my howl is to let her come
doss. I am just like the 'possum as
when one loot gets shook loose there
is another one catching, and regards
to the retail trade in meats. I huve
had to swing by the tail -no toe holt
in the dea'er but I am sorter there but
mighty shake,
But the time will come when Pauls
Valley will have a market yet supplied
by me and it will have the fat of the
land. I like the trade and can't help
it, so let beef be high or low. be
ready lor the fall carnival, we are all
going to eat or be invited.
The future of things now was never
better—the allied war will keep prices
pitched, but with two much ihraihers
we will see wheat and oats sacrificed
lor the want ol storage and time money
quick, figures may save you later
boiher and loss.
Yours Resp't

Every bottle or box of medicine made in our drug store is made by a competent phariru-
cist. This is worth everything to our patrons.

No one who has not had years of experience in the peparation and
compounding of medicines and who has not been properly licensed
by our State Board Pharmacy, is allowed to perform the responsible
duty of preparing medicine for the sick, in our store in Pauls Valley
#
This fact, should be worth a great deal to our patrons, for no one should ever be allowed to
compound medicine who is not fully competent. A person not capable, or one who has not
thoroughly fitted himself for this very important work, should never be allowed to fill a pre.
scription or prepare medicine of any kind; the risk is too great. It is surely as important, in
fact, more important, that your medicine be made by properly qualified persons, than it is to
have your disease treated by a competent physician, or your house built by competent labor.
We belive in a Square deal for the tick as well as the healthy.
