it. And it was all on account of a
Ford. Allen Ilunnleut driver of said

the road where there was a ditch on
one side and a bank on the other. In
trying to pass.. Allen drove too far
into the ditch upsetting the wagon.
The horse feeling peeved proceeded

only sure way to reckon the year's financial gain Is by the "Check System."
By handling all financial transactions through the bank we have at the
close of the year a positive record of all its business and a safe indica-
tion of the road to belter prosperity next year
It behooves us then to start tha New Year with a bank account and
to place our account with a bank that pursues a cours-e of sanity and care
fulness in its business practices and employs competent and efficient offi-
cers so that our funds may be properly safeguarded and carefully ac-
counted for. Tli'j Oklahoma Nationiil Rank cites Its record and its reputa-

"We know of. course what are tha
arms oi the Ghetto Jew; they are
tongue and pen. By means of these
it is intended to raise the Jew from
the depths of his ashes and make him
a live nation again. A congress oi
American Jews is to be called and II
is to demand at the conclusion of the
war or before it the return of Pales-
tine to its ancient owners. For the
Jews are a nation and they must have
a land and Palestine is theirs.
"That is to say in brief that while
nearly three-quarters of a million Jewt
on the European battlefields are al
one another's throats in vindication
each of a different nationality the
Jews far away from the bursting shells
and glittering bayonets are calling oul
to them: 'No you are all in the wrong
For you are all one.'
"It is not for us to determine
whether the Jews are a nation. It ie
not for one man to tell another whal
he should be. One is what one feels
If the Jews feel themselves a nation
that is sufficient"

Two years ago Watson went to Bos-

acquired a technical knowledge of the

enabled him to build a reproduction of

has not been used for 200 years from
printed descriptions of it.
In the museum of the University of
Michigan there is a clavichord built in
the time of Bach but knowledge ot
this instrument did not come to young
Watson until he had practically com-
pleted the clavichord on which he was
working. However he made a trip to
Ann Arbor and not only inspected the j
instrument at close range but put it
in repair. With the exception of one
or two things he found that the clavl
chord built by his hands was correct
and details which were wrong were oi

CONSTIPATION AND INDIGESTION.
i The young people enjoyed a New
Year party at the home of Mr. and
Mrs. Joe Andersons.' The hours up
to midnight were pleasantly spent
playing games and making merry in
general; then as the New Year was
about to be ushered in the you'i--bters
divided themselves into as many
groups as there are bells in town and
j-ounded forth the news that 1916 had
arrived.

Potash and Phosphates.
The agricultural department of the
University of Illinois has published an
other report dealing with the soils of
this state and the fertilizers which
they need. This new investigation
like the last shows that Illinois farm
ers need not worry about potash. With
the exception of swamp lands our soils
have all the potassium salts they need
and the addition of more. is a stimu-
lant rather than a food. '
What Illinois land usually does lack
is phosphorus and the United States
has a plentiful supp'y of phosphate
rock. This is good news to farmers
who had been taught that the lack of
German potash would cut down their
crops. It tends likewise to stimulate
an American industry which was be-
ing hidden behind clever foreign ad-
vertising. By the time this war is
over America will know how much
potash fertili7er it. really needs and
what the stuff is worth on the soil.
