The service rendered by the
Metzger Bros. Creamery, to
producers of this section has
been the cause of the yearly
increase in the number of far-
mers selling them. The fact
that they handle a volume of
business equal te> dozens of
smaller creameries enables
them to make a brand of pro-
ducts of uniform high quality
and as a consequence enjoys
the. reputation of being the
leading brand sold. At their
offices the producer encoun-
ters the me>st courteous treat-
ment and is paid a higher
price than he would receive if
he depended on the smaller
cemcern for a market. Any in-
quiry regarding market prices
or other questions concerning
this concern will l>c met with
a courteous comprehensive

The production of cream is
a proposition that should ap
peal to every farmer. This
mode of farming builds up the
land and makes the fartner
more than- he can make by
straight farming awl he gets

to.suggest that you give

it rea% is.

The Salary Side Of
The Biggest Thing
In The Biggest State
"More talk, fewer acres, less
cotton, bigger prices and hand
some premiums for more cot-
ton on fewer acres" of course
interests thf farmers and busi-
ness men, but it is bigger
salaries that interest their
sous, yes, and daughters, too,
for there are plenty of places
for women in the cotton busi-
ness.
But to draw big salaries, you
must know the line. At the
Byrne Commercial College
you are taught every phase of
handling of cotton. The regular
course including bookkeeping
and the literary subjects re-
quires about three1 months to
master. The ^pecial course "all
about cotton, only" is master-
ed in about six weeks.
In order to learn the busi-
ness thoroughly and quickly,
you must attend a ge>od cotton
school. The Byrne Commercial
College is the only cotton
school in Dallas. It is & good
one and will not only qualify
you but will place you in >
position. After you have passed
their rigid requirements, you
can easily pass the State and
Federal tests, entitling you to
appointment to positions in
State attd. Federal warehouses,

Turning out work that is
artistic and enduring and' that
represents high ideals of pur-
pose and fairness in every
transaction has given this con.
cern and its home city quite a
boost in all the surrounding
territory. Refusing always to
lower their standard, their
reputation has been tvon by
producing the moelern crea-
tions of the monument mak-
ers' art.
They have at all times a
large display of finished work
which the public is invited to
call and inspect. They have
taken very special pains to see
that their plant is equipped
with all necessary appliances
for turning out their work in
the best njanner. All carving,
lettering .and tracing is done
with the l.atest Method.
They keep in close touch
with all authorities and
scources of supply and buy
their granites and marble
direct from the quaries which
enables them to save* money
for their customers. They have
a complete designing and
drafting department, and have
won o reputation for their
original and artistic designs
which they submit for any
class of work. If you have* a
design in mind go and talk the
matter over with them and
they will be able to produce it
just as you want it.
Let us suggest if you are
planning on putting up a
memorial of any kind that you
call on them now. By so doing
they will have ample time to
give the work their best at-
tention and will he sure to
have it in place for you when
you want it. We are more than
pleased to compliment this
concern and refer it to our
readers without hesitation.

No matt r how successful
the career of any man may ap-
pear, his life is ai failure unless
he has learned the lesson of
service. No man nor organiza.
tion of men can be successful
in business save only those
who render service. And thus
it is that we can point, in this
edition, to the investment ser-
vice operated^ by this well
known firm. Founded by men
who are thoroughly conver-
sant with all of the eletails of
the business in which they are
engaged, they began their suc-
cessful career with a firm de-
termination to let no other in-
dividual or institution outdo
them in the matter of service
to their clients. Success, a
large clientele and enviable
position in the business lift' of
the community came as a mat-
ter of course because they
have always adhered to this
determination.
In the matter of invest-
ments their business is two
fold. First to provide various
organizations and corpora-
tions with investments. Sec-
ond to furnish financial insti-
tutions and individuals with
saife. fair yielding securities
in which to invest their funds.
The Securities Investment Co.,
of Texas specialize in 1st
mortgage. Real Estate Bonds
and was the first Company in
Texas authorized to handle
these. They represent the Na-
tional Security Company of
New York City. While thh
office numbers h its clientele
many large investor * and sev-
eral financial and other insti-
tutions, it has made ai special-
ty since the beginning of its
business in soliciting the trade
of the men and women of
moderate means, bringing t
them through their partial
payment and other plans high
class investments for their
consideration and purchase.
The manager is one of the
foremost business men of the
city. He is a man of wide ex-
perience in financial matters
and has associated1 with him
as assistants, only those men
who are thoroughly conver-
sant with every -feature of the
njost important service which
they operate. Therefc re. it is
not strange that in the city
and surremnding territory
their many clients have come
to look to them and their 6f-
fice, not only for this service,
hut also for advice and infor-
mation upon investment mat-
ters. The officers and Direct

the charity patients in Park- acy and home-like comfort
land Hospital were used for ......
educational purposes for the|
Baylor medical students were
contained in the term report
of the Dallas County grand
jury submitted to Judge Felix
D. Robertson Saturday.
The grand jury recommend-j
erf that Parkland Hospital be j
controlled by a board com-
posed of men without any in-
terest in the other hospitals in
the city.
The grand jury also declared
itself in favor of thei county is-
suing $250,000 bonds for the
hospital and outlined a pro-
gram of development and en-
largement of facilities of Park-
land Hospital.
The report of a special com-
mittee composed of W. M.
Taylor. Houston Elliot and
Charles Seal1 and incorporated
in the term report of the grand
jury follows:
"We beg to report the condi-
tion at the Parkland Hospit il
as it now exists. There is uni-
son between the board of dir-
ectors of the hospital for its
fued between the representa-
tives of the school group,
which is Bavl<y Medical School
and the representatives of the
Parkland doctors proper. It
occurs to us that Baylor L'ni-
versity wishes to dominate the
hospital for the education of
their medical stucknts. It is a
fact that they demand a repre-
sentative from their group and
a half of the charity patients
who enter the hospital for
treatpient are used for educa-
tional purposes for their medi-
cal students.
"The budget represents the
taxpayers' money and about
half ($140,000) goes for the
■education of the Baylor medi-
cal students. It is a question of
whether the people want to
pay this amount for education
of this kind Baylor does not
appropriate one penny "for the
hospital's maintenance. Unkss
they do so it occurs to us that
there hould be only one govern
ing board, composed of strictly
Parkland doctors, who will
give with undivided devotion
their best efforts to the up-
building of the hospital. The
Parkland debtors are not dir-
ectors in the Baylor Hospital
or medical school. Loyalty
should reign among tK» doe-
tors. as well as its governing
board, and so long as it is u
mixed be>ard, as outlined by
Baylor Medical School, there
wili be friction in the hos-
pital's affairs.
"A board composed of men
without any interest in other
hospitals or institutions of
similar nature is recommended
or complete harmony."
