L. H. WILLIAMS, Asa't Manager. OFFICES: Second Floor Aostin Bldg;
Hiveryoouy is uippy luuay,
even the cattle and mules are
heading that way.
A. B. Smith motored up from
Collegeport Sunday night and
back Monday morning.
Our old neighbor, H. L. Burns
and wife from Collegeport, spent
Sunday afternoon with us.
Mrs. A. E. Schulte and two
little girls spent a pleasant after-
noon last Thursday with Mrs. S.
R. Smith at Riverside Park.
The types didn't make much
sense out of our item last week
about "Flappers," cause they
made it read Tappers. Ugh!
We rode into town last week
with neighbor, Jesse M. Gardner.
He was taking a fine crop of
young cockerel frys to town.
Wonder what sort of evolution
takes place in transferring "ta-
ters" to make them cost $1.60
per bushel more in the towns out
this way than in Houston.
There was a good big crowd in
Blessing Saturday and all the
merchants seemed to be having
a good trade; even Rowe Guynes
was trying to shave two fellows
at one time.
J. A. T-aslie and daughter will
teach in the Ashby schools again
the coming school year. The
Laslies are natural school teach-
ers, love the work and have been
at it for many years,and the Ash-
by people are to be congratulated
on securing them another year.
We were looking last week for
a certain colored man, and met
two colored women, one of whom
we were sure was the man's
wife. We asked them if he be-
longed to either of them, one of
them grinned and said: "well
sah, guess if any one has a grip
on dat niggah, ah has."
Frank Cobb, of Blessing, could-
n't get past the Persimmon or-
chard at Riverside Park last Sat-
urday, but had to stop and fiill
his face with the big yellow, lu-
cious beauties, and take home a
supply for the wife and kiddies.
Ripe persimmons with sugar and
cream, "don't need no coaxin' to
get 'em down."
When we wen^ to Messing last
Saturday, Jf. \j. Jordan came up
tp ys apd pulled up our pant leg
to spe if we had on socks. Ht
explained that if we wore socks,
it would be evident we are not a
Ku Klux. He says none of them
wear '"em" and that, "no socks"
is the pass to gain admission in
every regular and well governed
lodge of K. K. K.
The press reports that bakery
workers in New York City went
together and established co-op-
erative ^bakeries, and produced
and sold bread at cost, to com-
bat the bakery profiteers. In a
suit*against the co-operatives, a
New York court held, "that the
co-operative plan of selling bread
at cost would drive all competi-
tors out of business and that this
would be illegal because in re-
straint of trade." This shows
how badly some of our courts
need judges with more than a
thimble of brains.

If ROT were as visible
as FIRE you'd paint
your barn today!
IF you could actually see how sure-
ly your outbuildings were being
destroyed by the action of the ele-
ments, you'd be convinced that the
way to save money is to use good
paint, and use it now!
The saving can be effected by the
application of Devoe Bam Paint.
Into the manufacture of this product
goes only those basic materials in
proportions that years of experience
have proven to be the best.
Devoe Products are time-tested and
proven, backed by 168 years' experi-
enceof the oldest paint manufacturing
concern in the U. S. Founded 1754.

We predict a splendid cotton growing season in
Matagorda County during the year 1923.
We recommend the culture of AC ALA Cotton as
being the most profitable Cotton that can be grown
in Matagorda County.
ACALA Cotton is preferred and sought after by
buyers of cotton, and commands a good premium.
ACALA Cotton will make more to the acre than
other cottons and will mature at least two weeks
earlier.
ACALA Cotton will produce an average lint out-
turn of 34 to 36 per cent.
No extra charge for ginning ACALA Cotton.
We have purchased seed from the original breed-
ers of this type of cotton.
