Texas Loses Good Citizen
Few wealthy men are big men
but Smithville had one and he
passed away last week, he was
Emil Buescher. This man was
never known to turn down any
cause for the good of his section.
He always led the list when do-
nations of any kind were asked,
he gave to Smithville 150 acres
of land for a public park. The
good deeds are too ["numerous to
mention, but such a man is deep-
ly mourned and the section in
which he resides is truly poorer
when he dies. This man was the
wealthiest man in Smithville. He
did not labor just for himself but
always considered everyone and
everything that"needed aid and
his purse strings were always
open wide and his donations were
very liberal.
Our friend Mr. Brooks of Wei-
mar hit the nail on the head
when he stated: "Would that our
State had more men like Emil
Buescher."
Look Into The Mirror
Would you respect a man who
you know has as many unfavor-
able traits to his character and
disposition as you have?
Isn't it true that you criticize
many men who are possessed of
fewer faults than you have?
If your good points were bal-
anced against your bad]ones,how
would |you stand with your
friends?
Often those who speak ill of
others do it as a sore of smoke
screen to hide their own deficien-
cies.
You know yourself that you
seek to justify your owtfindiscre-
tions by emphasizing the mis-
steps cf triends and acquaintan-
ces.
Trying to shield yourself and
direct attention to others, eh?
Trying to make the faults oi
others look so large that your
weaknesses will not stand out
so prominently, is that it?
Usually tha man who follows
the straight and narrow course
has little time or inclination to
attempt to belittle others.
He knows how hard he has had
to struggle to reach a poiDt
where he can respect himself,
and if you want to respect your-
self you'll have to quit trying to
direct attention toward the
weaknesses of others.—Houston
Chronicle.
Emil Christ Embarks
In Business For Self
A deal was consummated the
past week end whereby Emil
Christ, well known and popular
young tonsorial artist, purchas-
ed the barber £shop of Walter
Sciba,located on Postoffice street.
Friend Enail is a fine barber, and
as he has associated with him
Albert Sohindler, another fiae
barber, they ought to make a
splendid team. They have a good
location, and as they turn out
nothing but first class work,they
ought to make good in every
way. They will appreciate your
patronage.—Weimar Mercury.
Emil Christ, Jr., above refer-
red too,is the son of Emil Christ,
who resides just north of Schu-
lenburg. Ha is a mighty fine
young man and the Sticker hopes
he makes lots of money. He is
deserving.
Weimar Banker's Home
Is Looted By Burglars
Weimar, July 21st.—Burglars
entered the home of Ben B.Holt,
Vice-President of the First State
Bank.and escaped with a valuable
watch, $L0 in currency, several
keys and a handbag.At the time
of the burglary none of the Holt
family was at home. Entrance to
the house was made through a
back screen window, which was
first cut.
Officers were notified of the
robbery but no definite clues
have been found. Several trink-
ets, however, were found later
in a box car about 50 yards from
the Holt home.
Hungarian Flysrs Make
Enviable Record
The two Hungarian ll.yers,
Capt. Geo. End res and Capt.
Alexander Magyar, who flew
from America to within fifteen
miles of their goal, Budapest,
are the only transatlantic flyers
to follow correctly the trail to
their destination, with the sole
exception of Col. Lindbergh.
They were in sight of their desti*
nation when Qhey ran out of gas>
and were forced to make a land®
ing.Tbey flew until the last drop
of gas was used up.The total non
stop mileage made on this flight
across thejocean was 3,230 miles.
These men were in the air 26
hours and 22 minutes.
This was a wonderful flight,
it's purpose was to call attention
to the injustice done Hungary in
the settlement of it's boundary
lines following the war. .

Farm Facts Re-
vealed By Census
Taking all farms of the entire
United States as a whole we get
some interesting facts, among
them we find that the average
price per acre is $48.52, while in
the year 1920 the average price
was $60.38, this means that farm
land values have decreased ap-
proximately twenty billion dol-
lars in ten years, as there are
practically a billion acres in
farm lands in this country.
Horses show a decrease of six
and a half million head in the
ten yerrs,mules show a decrease
of only a hundred thousand head,
cattle show a decrease of twelve
million head, on the other hand
milk cowe show an iucrease of
about a million head, chickens
show an increase of almost twen-
ty million.
The average size farm in the
U. S. A., is 156 acres, while in
1920 it was 148 acres.Total value
of farms and buildings on them
gives us the big figure of forty-
seven billion.nine hundred twen-
ty-nine million odd dollars.Farm
implements had a value of three
billion, three hundred million
dollars, showing a decrease of
almost three hundred million dol-
lars in ten years.
In sifting all of these figures
down we can see that the agri-
cultural situation in the U. S. A.
has been getting in worse shape,
with less people on the farms in-
stead of an increase, we see that
farmers have less cattle and
horses and not the implements
they used to have. It's high time
some thing is being done for
agriculture.

ing Mr. and Mrs. E. C. Gilliand

Restless,
could not sleep
MTHERE were days
when I felt like I
could not get my work
done. I would get so
nervous and 'trembly'
I would have to lie
down. I was very rest-
less, and could not
sleep at night.
My mother advised
me to take Cardui,
and I certainly am
glad she did. It is
the first thing that
seemed to give me
any strength. I felt
better after the first
bottle. I kept it up
and am now feel-
