Are not alone confined to the Free
Delivery of mail and the telephone.
There is another convenience which
all farmers should have and many
do have—a check account with a
good bank. iLhe possessor of such
an account avoids the risk of having
his money on his person or about his
hnmp where it is in danger of fire and
thieves.
His bills paid by check are not only
a valid receipt, but also a convenieace
in his home transactions where very
often the necessary change can be
made by check.
We have spared no expense to get
the best system of book keeping that
can be had. We send you a state-
ment of your account every month so
you can know at all times how your

Last Tuesday as Harry Tread
way and L. O. Tucker were driv
ir.g down the street in front of
the postoffice with a bale of cot
ton in the wagon the mules be-
came frightened at an automobile
and for a short distance made a
lively run. Striking a wagon at
the rear of the Snow Mercantile

Both Tucker and Treadway re-

able to crawl from under the
wreckage. The mules seemed
to enjoy the race.
