Have you fed your stock their Vit-

minerals contain no salt. All minerals
and yeast. That’s why Vit-A-Way
minerals are far cheaper in the long

one and one-half the amount of salt.

Craig M. Logan, who lives out
southwest of town on one of the
nicest ranch homes in this section,
was a business visitor in Clifton Tues-
day afternoon and took time to make
the Record a very pleasant social and
business call. He said his section had
received much rain recently; last
week the amount was more than
eight inches and caused the branches
and creeks to overflow considerably.
He said a number of bridges and cul-
verts were washed out, causing
much inconvenience to people’s
.travels; and the replacing of some of
the washed away bridge timbers was
quite difficult as the lumber yards in
the county were not privileged to sell
the commissioners lumber for such
and a number of days elapsed before
material could be brought in. He said
the people of the community affected
by these washed out bridges seemed

Your Electrical Appliances
and the War
★ ★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★
I") Y JUNE 1, the manufacture of virtually all electrical appliances
will have ceased for the duration. This action wees taken by the
War Production Board to conserve vital metals and to speed the
conversion of the appliance industry to war production. Appliance
manufacturers are cooperating wholeheartedly as their contribution to
the all-out drive for victory.
How will the cease-production edict affect you? What can you do to
assure a continuation of the necessary functions that electricity performs
in your home? Here are some timely suggestions:

e
If you have appliances that are in good condition, keep them
that way by giving them proper care and attention. Continue to
use them for essential purposes, but avoid wasteful and
unnecessary use that causes needless wear.
If some of your appliances need repairs, have them attended to
now by a competent serviceman. Often a small part or a minor
adjustment will make an old appliance as good as new.
If other appliances have outlived their usefulness and cannot
be repaired, replace them now with best-quality new ones that
will give you trouble-free service for the duration. We still
have a stock of new appliances to meet essential needs and we
will endeavor to take care of the requirements of our customers
as long as our limited supply lasts.

It has always been our policy to help our customers make the best and
most economical ufce of their electrical service and we plan to continue
this policy to the fullest extent possible. We invite you to consult us or
any electrical dealer regarding your appliance maintenance and repair
problems. We’ll help you in every way we can. We suggest that you
try to make your present appliances last for the duration, but if you
need new equipment, we urge you to buy now while stocks are available
and you can purchase on present favorable terms. Waiting may
disappointment.
