(The following report on the oil ac-
tivities of Grayson and Fannin coun-
ties has been sent out by the presi-
dent of the Oil Developement Bu-
reau. This report was made up on

status of the situation in both coun-
ties up to that date.

The Farmer will find the Ford Model T One Ton
Truck an especially valuable factor in his business
because of the flexibility as well as the reliability of
the service which can always be depended upon to
be given by this splendid truck. The worm-drive of
manganese bronze carries all the power of the motor
to driving the truck and there are combined in larger
and heavier form all the elements which have made
the Ford Model T Car the greatest motor car in the
world in point of service. The Ford Truck with its
worm-drive is most economical in operation and
* maintenance. There is very little, if anything, to
get out of order at any time; there is the simplicity
of control; there is the convenience in the flexibility
of the car, it will turn in a circle of forty-eight feet;
it accommodates itself to narrow alleys, and it
“stands the gaff” of hard work day after day, and
month after month, to the great satisfaction of the
owner. There is hardly a line of business activity
where the Ford One Ton Truck is not really a neces-
sity. On the farm, or in the factory, with the rail-
road, it is solving the economic 'delivery of merchan-
dise and produce better than any other truck we
know of.

Mr. Vaughan, Farmer, Tells How He
Lost All His Prize Seed Corn.
“Some time ago sent away for
some pedigreed seed corn. Put it in
a gunney sack and hung it on a rope
suspended from the roof. Rats got
it all—how beats me, but they did be-
cause I got 5 dead whoppers in the
morning after trying RAT-SNAP.”

and guaranteed by Wilson-Montgom-
ery Hdw. Co. and Dyer & Jones.
THE FREEST COUNTRY
Dodson is making a hard fight against
calomel in the South. Every druggist has
noticed a great falling off in the sale of
calomel. They all give the same reason,
Dodson’s Liver Tone is taking its place.
“Calomel is dangerous and people know
it, while Dodson’s Liver Tone is perfectly
safe and gives better results,” said a
prominent local druggist. Dodson’s
Liver Tone is personally guaranteed by
every druggist, A large bottle costs but
a few cents, and if it fails to give easy
relief in every case of liver sluggishness
and constipation, you have only to ask
for your money back.
Dodson’s Liver Tone is a pleasant-
tasting, purely vegetable remedy, harm-
less to both children and adults. Take
a spoonful at night and wake up feeling
fine; no biliousness, sick headache, acid
stomach or constipated Jjowels. It
doesn’t gripe or cause inconvenience all
the next day like violent calomel. Take
a dose of calomel today and tomerrow
yen will feel weak, siek and nauseated.
lose a day’s work! Take Dod-
son’s Liver Tone instead and feel fine,
full of vigor and ambition.

We are putting in our time getting ready
for the big fall and winter business that we are
expecting. We bought heavily of the best the
Eastern markets afforded, and it will not be long
before our fall and winter stocks will be complete
in every detail.
Quality Merchandise has been our standard
for all the years we have been in 'business, and
Quality Merchandise will dominate at our store
again this season.. We learned early to believe
in Quality, and never have we had cause to be-
lieve in sacrificing Quality for prices. Therefore,
you can depend on the merchandise we sell you
—we believe you have learned to do so in years
gone by. '

There is no action so slight, nor so
mean, but it may be done to a great
purpose, and ennobled therefore; nor.
is any purpose so great but that slight
actions may help it, and may be so
done as to help it much, most especi-
ally that chief of all purposes, the
pleasing of God.—Ruskin.
What a man applies himself to ear-
nestly he naturally loves.—Epictetus.
In hot weather is a pleasure when compared to plow-
ing with horses, because the hot weather does not
affect the Fordson as it does the horses and there is
a great satisfaction in knowing that you can break
8 acres in every 10 hours you plow with the Fordson
Tractor. The increased production when the plow-
ing is done with a Fordson will cut the expense of
plowing half. Remember you will get the same ser-
vice on the Fordson here that you get on Ford cars.
We have the parts, the special shop equipment and
trained mehanics for Fordson works the same as we
have for Ford cars. Get your Fordson now and be
prepared to do your plowing right and do it when
it should be done and get through with it. Ask any
Fordson owner.

China, says one enthusiastic trav-
eler, is “the freest country in the
world.” A writer in the Central Chi-
na Post admits it, and gives some il-
lustrations that dull somewhat the
edge of appreciation.
-*• Liberty of speech and press is so
complete, he explains, that it permits
blackmail without redress.
The use of public highways is so
free and unrestricted that it is not
unusual to find a public road dug up
and planted in vegetables, or
structed by a house built on it.
Choice of occupation is so free that
anybody who can live by begging is
allowed to do so, and beggars take
possession of public buildings in bad
weather, and camp, unhindered by
the authorities, at the door of any
merchant who refuses them alms.
There is freedom in. sickness. Any
citizen is freely permitted to catch
any kind of disease, and when a man
falls sick of smallpox, typhus or other
infectious ailments, his friends and
neighbors are at liberty to crowd into
the patient’s room by day and night,
and do so, thus helping to spread the
infection.
A similar freedom is found even
in death. When a man dies who has
no near relatives, whoever happens to
be burdened with the corpse can put
it in a box and deposit it, without any
formality, by the roadside. It stays
there until the box falls to pieces or
some good Samaritan volunteers to
bury the body.
Liberty is a grand and glorious
thing, but there seems to be such a
thing as having too much liberty. ’ -
