We are getting our fair share of the current produc-
tion of new Chevrolet passenger cars and trucks.
And as strikes and shortages decrease, at the Chev-
rolet plants are able to produce more and more new
passenger cars and trucks, we’ll get more and more
of them to deliver to our customers.
Meonwhi/e, as long as shortages do exist, it is our
purpose to apportion our share of the new Chevrolets
available fairly and justly among the many customers,
new and old, whose continued friendship and patron-
age are the keystone of our business.

■performing every character of la-
bor required about the farm such
as clearing lands, splitting rtils^
driving ox teams through all
kinds of weather in addition to
the general routine work of a
farm hand.
“He, by his own labors procfl red
a common school education, paying
his own tuition. Never attended
a public school a day in his life
.has principal education being ob-
tained around the home fireside
at night after laboring hand upon
Gie farm during the day.
“He remained on the farm until
Dec. 1, 1880, at which time he
accepted a position as cleric for
the firm of Evans & Childs Bros,
who were then doing a large busi-
ness in Fairfield. He remained in
their employ until Nov. 1882,
when he was elected by an over-
whelming majority to the office
of District Clerk of Freestone
county, which office he filled for
three successive terms, with hon-
or to himself and the entire sat-
isfaction of hi. constituents.
“In March 1884 he was married
to Miss Lizzie Self, a most esti-
mable Mid accomplished young
Lady of Fairfield and as a result
of such-marriage he has one son,
W. R. Boyd, Jr., latftljr graduated
from the Metropolitan Business
College at Dallas, Texas, and who
is now engaged in the mercantile
business at Fairfield, also three
beautiful little girls, all attending
the Fairfield high school.

cense to practice law in the Dis-
trict Court of Freestone county,
and at once entered into the ac-
tive practice of his profession.
“He is a democrat in politics

senting the first Congressional
District in the last campaign.
“He is a member of the Metho-
dist church having been a church
official for several years, he is
also a member of the board of
school trustees for Fairfield.
“Knowing the difficulties and
hardships of the widbw and or-
phan and the poor country boy he
is charitable to a fault, is public
spirited and takes great interest
in every move for the upbuilding
of his town and community.
“He disclaims being a politician
in any use of the word however he
always takes an active interest in
elections, is Dmocratic County
Chairman of his county, and will
be a candidate for congres^, in
the 6th district at the coming elec-
tion.’’ .

Week, Nov. 2-10. Over 100,000
4-H Club boys and girls will be
recognized for the work they have
done during the past year in 4-

Bur Clover Makes
Cash For Farmer
COLLEGE STATION, October
28.—Bur clover, besides being a
good soil builder, can make a first
rate cash crop, as demonstrated
by Jim Garrett of the Stranger
Community in Falls County.
Garrett harvested 20,000 pounds
of bur clover from 25 acres of
grazing land, sold the seed for an
average of 16 cents a pound and
received a gross return of 3128
an acre from the crop.
Falls County Agricultural Agent
W. I. Ross states -that the bur
clover was grown on creek bottom
land where an average of one cow
per acre was grazed during part
of the winter and spring months.
