Hay Grader Named
J A Lollar of this city has
een appointed hay inspector
and grader by the State Market-
ing Commission His duties will
consist ' of grading cars of hay
shipped to other points and issue
official grade papers for same
This protects the shipper who is
often at the mercy of unscrupu-
ous buyers at distant points who
claim inferior hay after receiv-
ing same and force lower prices
upon the shipper because he is
compelled to take their grades
after it has been delivered
Mr Loilar has had lots of ex-
perience in the hay business and
is competent to grade satisfac-
tory to all parties concerned He
is manager of the Pauls Valley
Grain Co who have bought and
shipped from this section over
500 cars of hay the past two sea-

Is Your Confidence
Well Founded?
If there’s a business in the world builded upon and sup-
ported by CONFIDENCE— it is the DRUG BUSINESS-
More especially the PRESCRIPTION BUSINESS
This CONFIDENCE cannot be gained “Over night” it
takes YEARS of the very closest and constant application
to the Prescription Business to reach this end— ’Tis well
that this is true It is a “Necessary safeguard to the
Public”— After having gained the Public’s confidence—
the Druggist’s responsibilities correspondingly increase
since his Reputation is constantly “Balanced on the scales
with a human life”
We are ever mindful that each prescription your doctor
phones us or you bring to us in person is an expression of
his and your CONFIDENCE and assure you we shall put
forth aa much or more effort to retain thi3 confidence as
we did in gaining it
