Wednesday I went to one of ray
first cousins funeral Edgar Lin- j
coin at Hi'-o. His mother was my *
father's sistar whose name *w*r
Tennie Stephen. Edgar wus an
uncle of Mr*. Ralph Moser who
baa taught in the Stephenvllle pub-
lic‘schools for several years.
When my precious mother died
Edgar came to the funeral and
sat with the relatives. I told him
1 done the best I could for my
mother but that wasn’t enough nor
as much as she deserved. Edgar
cri«L bless hi* heart. He taught
at Linglcville in 1914 and inspir-
ed the pupils to be honest, truth-
ful and brave and always give six-
teen ounces for a pound, thirty-
six inches for a yard, and never
put their thumbs on the meat
scales in weighing a pound of
Meat. He retired from his teach-
ing career at Bits where he and
his faithful wife Bertha had
tought several years. They moved
to their lovely ranch home be-
tween Carlton and J^ampkin where
they owned vast acres of land and
made trips to foreign lands. There
was a strong connecting fraternal
tie between Edgar and I not only
Mood. More than forty years ago
we were member* of the Dublin
Masonic Lodge. Edgar had fought
IMS’* battles bravely, near this
world’s journeys end. Hi* tremb-
ling voice grew weak. His eyes
put on a dying look, he sighed
and ceased to speak. HU body was
out of pain. HU soul was safe in
heaven. Well miss you Edgar.
Well be seeing you some of these
days around the great white
Throne where the countless num-
ber* of angels ting and th* flow-
er* stand in eternal bloom, where
our beloved parents and grandpar-
ent* have been waiting and watch-
ing for us in th* vineyard of our
Lord. There 3hnll be no more
night, nor tears but endless days
and ceaseless joy shall be the re-
ward of those who have perform-
ed their duty according to the Holy
Writ. — Homer Stephen, Stephen

TEXO Range Cubes have been fortified with Vitamin A
so that 4 lb. per cow per day will meet the entire needs of
Vitamin A per day. The importance of Vitamin A is well
known to all beef cattle producers. A deficiency results
in:
1. Night blindness of new-born calves; or the calves
may be blind at birth.
2. Eye infections occur in all cattle as well as new-
born calves. Such infections are often confused
with Pink Eye
3. Cows fail to breed, early abortions may occur or
dead calves are born.
4. Bulls become sterile.
5. Calves are more susceptible to infection, respire
lory as well as digestive.
