AN AWFUL WASTE OF MONEY
It is certainly scandalous to see expensive ma-
chinery, tools, and vehicles standing around in
fields and barnyards. Mr. Farmer, you certainly
must know that it is an “an awful waste of money”
because rot and rust will ruin any machine quickly.
Come now, why wait longer? You need sheds.
We sell the lumber, the cost of which for a shed
is but a trifle compared to the waste on your ma-
chinery ant) tools Build now.

SAYS THE OWL
If you want to treat p man like a
lord lend hllu money.
Marriage is a tie, especially for the
man who is roped in.
Many a man’s vocabulary is largely
made up of its and huts.
Many a fellow takes advice that ho
doesn’t know what to do with.
The self-made man has a profound
contempt for the tallor-ipade one.
