The Pure Feed Law
The Agricultnral and Mechanical
College is charged with the enforce-
ment of several laws designed to
protect the people against traud.
The Pure Feed law probably effects
more individuals than all the others
combined. Before it went into op-
eration large quantities ot adulter-
ated stock feed was sold in Texas,
much of which came from mills out
side the state. Ground cottonseed
hulls were frequently mixed with
cottonseed meal and shipped as a
pure product. It was well nigh im-
possible to get unadulterated bran or
corn chops. The mill men put ground
corn c^bs, peanut shells, rice hulls
and sometimes chalk into the bran ;
while not infrequently they ground
corn and cob together and sold the
mixture as pure corn chops.
Uuder the operation of the law
every sack of stock feed must carry
a card showing the guaranteed anal
ysia of its contents, the guarantee
being attested by the director ot the
experiment station, who is in charge
of the teed control. Every mill in
the state is visited and examined by
an inspector at least tour times a
year, and its products are examined
wherever they are found exposed
for sale. Aoy infringement of the
law is visited by heavy penalties.
To do this work effectively requires
a large and active force of inspectors
and chemists.
In Memory of Father Orowley
A handsome monument erected in
token of affection by the Catholics
of the town, marks tbe last resting
place of the late Rev. Father Crow-
ley in Calvary cemetety. The mon-
ument was purchased in Sherman
by Rev. Father Granger of Mar-
shal), executor of Father Crowley’s
estate, and cost $250. It bears tbe
following inscription:
“To the memory of Father T. K.
Crowley, late pastor St. Patrick’s
church. Born in Ireland. Died
Christoias Day, 1906.’’
Father Crowley’s anniversary oc-
curs during the coming week, and
will be fittingly remembered in both
Catholic churches in tbe city.

Moonshine!
When people advertise “bargains” did you ever pause
long enough to think that the bargain* they speak of may
be for the seller and not for the buyer? Many of the
alleged “great offerings” are but a delusive mixture of
moonshine and misrepresentation. That may do for just
once, but folks are not hankering after it for a steady diet.

Men throw away thousands of dollars In a lifetime for cigars and whiskey, the result of a thoughtless habit. It’s the biggest fool thing a man ever did, and another fool thing is to form the
habit of trading at some Certain store without paying any attention to prices. We often hear people say when they pay more than our prices for goods, “I got in the habit of trading at
So-and-8o*s.** The man who squanders his money for whiskey and the one who throws his money away through the force of habit of trading at some special store can never hope to be as
indepedent as he should. It was never as important as now that you save all you can honestly. We claim to list prices that make It sure you will save by trading here and if we didn’t
believe it we wouldn’t ask your patronage.
