Experience
Experience is the world’s greatest teacher, a
. training in her school means a guarantee of effi-
^ ciency. In my business, experience is tne only
jj> thing that really does count, for a man may have
ever so great a theoretical knowledge of the insides ^
(• of a watch and still be a very poor repair man un- •)
P*. less he also have the practical knowledge which ex-
perience alone can give.
L I’ve worked in the Howard, Hamilton, South
Bend, Kockford and other watch factories, and
have accumulated a fund of practical watch knowl-
edge which is very valuable to me as a watch fixer •
and to you as a watch owner. I can make a relia-
ble time-piece of the watch you’re carrying. Why
not let me do it? All work guaranteed and prices

Commercial Fertilizers Did It.
Messrs Flake & Hale, pej,. g, 1910
GentlemenThe ton and ya of King Cotton Fertilizer
I bought from Flake 4 Hayden last year, I used on 15
acres of the poorest land on the farm. I tried to diatrib-
ute the Fertilizer aa near 200 pounds per aore as possible.
Results:—6 1-2 Bales of cotton from the 15 sores. Bal-
ance of farm, 20 acres adjoining the 15 acres, ofmuoh bet-
ter land made only 2 1-2 bales. I confidently believe if I
could only have had one good rain in July or August I
would have made 1 bale per acre. J, p. Maxwell
I have used King Cotton Fertilizer 2 years on my little
M farm 3 miles south of Pilot Point with paying results. Last
M year being so exceedingly dry it was impossible to deter-
M mine exact results and believe however I got one bale more
M after fall rains than would have gotten otherwise Hav-
