The BANNER does riot. believe in militarism, nor in a large standing army. We are unalterably opposed to such an army-or navy as would invite a policy of aggression. There is no reason for Vie t'nited States to ever seek or desire more territory than we now possess. Our efforts should be centered upon bringing to every 'merican the largest possible opportunity for a prosperous and sueces^futil life, if he be minded’.tu have such a life; and to stand'for. justice and right at home ami abroad, and especially for a world peace that shall bring to.its highest fruition the hope of humanity for a richer anti better heritage on the earth. ■ Bnt it is uunwise to slfuut our eyes to the tact that in standing for justice and peace, America, cannot avoid the enmity of other na­ tions whose ambition may be thwarted by the disposition of this country to help the weak, and to. insist u|»on international fair play. If the Prince of Peace could not escape enmity and violent opposi­ tion, but was Himself crucified by those whose selfishness was re­ buked ur thwarted by Him, how can America hope to escape the enmity uf other nations, even though we arc conscious of no other purpose than to seek their friendship? We are a trading people; and rivalry for markets has been the cause of many' wars. Ncvcrtheloes we have no sympathy for any policy, of nfilitary preparednc»s qn the lines of European nations on the theory that thereby wc will prevent war. The history of Europe in 1914 is ah illuminating proof that such preparedness.not only-invites vvar, but makes it all the more cruel, murderous and destructive. The BANNER is hardly prepared to believe cither that it will be wise fpr this nation to do away with bo'th army and navy, on the theory that utter.unptcparethies? for attack by jwssibie foes would make them ashamed to attack, us. «-The world has hardly reached such a state of moral chivalry that greed'would not prompt some ag­ gressive nation to take advantage of our weakness. Is (here not some reasonable policy that America can adopt that will not invite* jingoism qt home, nor tempt designing politicians to pose as the superlative ^riuid.s. pt the people by displaying a chip All-u>a/ys Preferable Notice Extraordinary ' The above set of ware is not for sale, but Arrange­ ments lytvc been made to present everyone with the com­ plete set who buys a South Bend Malleable Range dur­ ing the week of our big exhibit. High Qradc Pitre Aluminum Ware is too expensive for the average housewife to buy for hetalf, but during the week of pur exhibit, we have arranged a plan by which wc are able to give a complete set of this high grade ware, .worth $u.oo, to every purchaser of a SOUTH BEND MALLEABLE RANGE. This is a rarp opportunity to funli?h your kitchen free for the price of the range only.

Buy the best range and let* us make you a present of the BEST set of High Grade Aluminum Cooking Ware. Be sure and come. Many useful souvenirs will be given away. Remember the place and date. on our shouulder, with an implied invitation to any other nation to knock it off; and, at tlL skinc time.not leave America open to raids by any unfriendly or grasping power greedy for’world domination? It sccnu to us as if there surely must be and among the many suggested these two scent most nearly designed to accomplish what will not encourage jingoism, and at the same time will deter any other nation which may be'filled with a lust for dominion or land from considering that it could do as it pleased with the United States. The two plans that commend themselves to us arc these: • ' (1) A naval and coast defense plan that will provide for the mounting of the largest type 'of 'coast defense guns near our big coast cities and the Panama canal approaches, and that will keep a large supply of mines and small ships for planting them, so that thimeans of defense could be fully available. The naval program sug­ gested is it reasonable increase in battle ships and cruisers, and a lafge flotilla of torpedo boats, torpedo boat-destroyers, submarines : and airships for patrolling the coast. These smaller vessels with will, trained crews' should be made quickly available for use at all possible landing places along the Atlantic or Pacific coast, so that they, upuid .he instantly available al ajyr poipt; where a. liustiic . qTr-JL iiricf'D.ymjton.’t utuSuiirtiSu'io • (J) The army program.

It is prohibited by law from making any other investments. It will not loan more than 50 per cent of the value of the property mort­ : gaged as security. Repayment of the mort­ gage is commenced one month after, it is made and continues month by month until it is fully repaid; the security is constantly growing better. Under this plan safety is as­ sured. ’ This Society is under the supervision of the State of Michigan. It is carefully and thoroughly examined by the State Depart­ ment and its financial standing verified. Twenty-two years of Successful Business is a splendid assurance for the future. Every person who has transacted business with the Industrial Savings Society is its friend. Checks For Interest Sent Jan. 1 and July 1 coupon in this adv. and cut it out and mail to us we will be pleased to give you the fullest assurance you may require. That the investment is safe—is assured because securities are real estate first mortgages: Society is supervised by State Department. That investments are drawing good rate of in­ terest—5 per cent is paid upon “Class E” and four and one-half per cent is paid upon "Class A.” That investment is available—even during the most severe panics of the past 22 years this'Society has paid every cent to depositors upon demand. Every thoughtful person before investing his savings demands three things. He wants to be assured FIRST—That his money is safe. SECOND—That it is drawing good interest. THIRD—That his money is available. Before turning over his savings, the thoughtful investor always ascertains to what use the institu­ tion puts the funds intrusted to it. We .are pleased to reassure every prospective investor and if you will write your name and address in the Class E It is a Certificate of Deposit which will be issued for twenty dollars or any ■ । । multiple of that sum. It irfay be surrended for repayment at any time, but if surrendered under 3 months from date of issue no interest is allowed. If surrendered after three months and under one year the interest is three per cent. If the certificate re­ mains in force one year or more, the interest is five per cent from day of deposit to day of withdrawal. On the first day of January and July of each year a check for the accrued interest is mailed to the owner of the certificate. This splendid investment has many other advantages which can not be pre­ sented in this advertisement. NAME . ADDRESS I am interested in further information concerning the saving plan of the Industrial Savings Society. . ClaSS A The Class A Investment offered by this Society affords every privilege of ........—a savings bank, but with much higher rate of interest. A pass-book is is­ sued and any sum may be deposited at any time. Any part or all of the deposits may be ’ withdrawn at any time. Money so deposited draws interest at the rate of four and onehalf per cent from day of deposit to day of withdrawal. On the first of January and July of each year the interest is added to principal, thus compounding interest semi-annually. No interest is allowed on accounts opened and entirely closed out within three months. The Industrial Savings Society 219 Hammond Bldg.

LIMOUSINE............................................... - PRICE $3600 BERLIN LIMOUSINE - This is the story, in a single sentence, of the Eight-Cylinder Cadillac. Complete continuity—not theoretical, but actual. i . ’ . There is no intermission between impulses, but rather an over-lapping so complete that one melts or merges into another. The torque therefore, is constant an4 the flow of power is continuous. As the Cadillac softly speeds along under the almost magic influence of this new power-principle, the sen­ sation is. as unique as though you had never motored before. It is useless to try to depict in words,xthrills which you have never felt or torportray a degree of earc which you have never experienced. ' . Nothing but your first memorable ride in the new Cadillac Eight can reveal the wealth of motoring lux­ ury which this car affords. s . As you sink into the soft, yielding cushions, you become enraptured in that delightful sensation of floating through space. You revel in exceptional relaxation a nd, ease, oblivious* to the wonderful mechanism which gives you motion. The doors are wide and easy of entrance. The tonneau is large and roomy; the rear seat accommodates three passengers comfortably. In the seven-passenger car, two comfortable extra seats fold into recesses, and are concealed out of the way when not in use. _ The tilting steering wheel, which is on the left aide, and the position of the control levers, make it possible for the driver and front seat passenger to enter the car at either side. The gear change lever and the hand brake lever are in the center. They are set well forward, facilitating entrance and exit, yet are Within easy reach of the driver. The switches for the electric lights and for ignition are located conveniently on the cowl board. A pedal button in the floor brings the electric cranking device into action. The multiple disc clutch is soft and velvety in operation. The car starts with ease and smoothness, without jerk, shock or jar. . The shifting of gears is easy and quiet. After getting unden way, which is only a matter of moments, one rarely -Has occasion to change gears unless at times, perhaps, to meet some unusual or extreme condition. The steering is steady and positive; the natural inclination of the car is to travel straight ahead. The brakes are powerful, yet easy of application. In operation you enjoy the widest flexibility. From less than three miles an hour in crowded city streets and congested traffic—without change of gears and without nursing or especially skillful manipulation —to more than sixty miles- an hour on the open highway has been demonstrated to be the range. \St's fetter to ^uy a Cadillac _• Jhan (dish you J4ad Western Michigan Cadillac Co., Ltd OSCAR ECKBERG, Mgr. 19 to 23 LaGrave Ave. Mt** Nina Wood* and pupil* cave a HOLMES CHURCH. th* guests ot Fred Durkee's Sunday.

It dares you to find a single detail in mechanical construction, in finish and in equipment that is not superior to every car in its price class and equal to many cars around the $2,000 class. To substantiate this sweeping claim, to prove the absolute truth of every word, we will take at random, a few features of this Paige model "36” and ask you to make comparison and be your own judge of the relative values between this car and any others you care to investigate. A MOTOR Let us go right to the very heart of the car and carefully study the motor, noting its principal features of design, con­ struction, quality of materials and workmanship. Lifting the hood you can see a clean, smooth cylinder casting. All four cyl­ inders are cast en bloc. The rigidity secured by this design elim­ inates all possibility of strain on pistons, connecting rods, driv­ ing shaft and valve operation. The motor is hung on a three-point suspension. No matter how rough roads may twist or strain the frame, the motor re­ mains in perfect alignment and therefore does not lose one ounce of its driving power. The strength of the frame and the skilled design of Paige three-point suspension make it durable and safe, adds life to the motor and by permitting the frame to free­ ly adapt itself to all road conditions results in a surprisingly comfortable smoothness in riding qualities. Silence Now, let us see what makes this Paige motor run so quietly. First, all moving parts are enclosed. Second, silent* chains operate the timing gears, generator, magneto and water circu­ lating pump. This is the costliest form but it is the best—nat­ urally it is on the Paige. Third, all moving parts are bathed in a constant stream of oil, making for smoothness and silence. The skilled designing ability and the infinite care that goes into Paige motors is best illustrated, by the almost total absence of vibration. A,Paige owner must listen for the light purr to tell whether it is running. All reciprocating parts are balanced and of the lightest weight, their durability and safety being main­ tained by better quality of materials.

Some peoplej tho, will feed all man­ ner of proper foods and fekd them regularly and neglect proper watering.

Then, tco, wo sometimes neglect tQe ques­ tion of grit, of charcoal, of egg-laying materials that have to do with shell making and bpno strengthening.

The BANNER’S Plan of Handling Auction Sales Ought to Be Favored by Every One Who Contemplates Having a Sale in Barry County: 1 ST—BECAUSE IT IS A DEMONSTRATED SUCCESS.. In the past "six years, over 750 Auction Sales have been advertised in the BANNER to the mutual satisfaction of the sellers and buyers.. Wc have letters from many who have advertised their sales in the BANNER showing that on a.single article they have realized enough more than they expected to pay all the expenses of the auction. In all cases when results have been comp^red with cx|>cctations the sales advertised in the BANNER have exceeded expectations, in some cases by several hundred dollars as we can show by let­ ters and personal references. tho High Huh«x>1 like typewriter*?

The BAN­ NER goes into practically every home in Barry Co' The people naturally look to the BANNER-to learn about Auction Sales. If a Barry Co. man wants for his own purposes any tool pr live stock advertised in any sale, he knows just where to go to find it. Be will be prepared to bid what he be­ lieves the article or animal is worth, because be has use for it. There will be no element of speculation in his bid. With the old plan, the people in the immediate neighborhood were the only ones who knew of the sale, and they would generally bid because they hoped to buy something cheap. need th® »upport of the Mudent body*.I ANhlatkc*“depend ju»t a* much If not more, on the ttudeirt body a* on the High School Union to be purely' with alt th* lan* in the H.

The BAN­ NER makes dates for the auctioneers and practically all of them report the sales they book to this office, which is the recognized auction sale headquar­ ters.

OFTHE SALE. This is so evident that any elaboration of this point is quite unnecessary. Permanent 7TH—BECAUSE THE BANNER CONTAINING THE AUCTION • ADVERTISING IS L'AID AWAY AND PRESERVED IN THE HOME WHILE THE BILL IS SUBJECT TO THE WINDS AND RAINS AS IT. IS TACKED ON THE FENCES AND TREES. THE BANNER’S METHOD o! advartklng Auction Salos has boon ondorsod Thia Bank is as solid as a rock, because it puts "SAFETY FIRST." It takes no speculative chances. It is conservative in all of its invest­ ments, putting EVERY DOLLAR of the money of its savings de­ positors into "GILT EDGED" SECURITIES, that are SAFE today, tomorrow, and fifty years from now. Your money should be so safeguarded. * ^ . . . . The STRENGTH of a financial' institution lies in its capital, its assets, its honorable history, and the character and standing of the men behind it. Its continued growth is. one of the best evi­ dences of its SOUNDNESS, and the confidence of the people in it. This Bank has been the means of helping many men on the road*to SUCCESS. We offer the very best facilities to every man who has a steadfast desire to get ahead in the world. nf xratrful in th® heard of 8upervl*oi*. m they bate appropriated twenty dollar* for th® iparchls® of u Babcock SBIk Tetter.

French’s White Lily Is The Best Value in Flour With the increasing price of wheat of late and the consequent advance in the price of'flour, it is to YOUR IN­ TEREST to get the BEST VALUE.for your money. Good bread is the basis of all living, and the better value you get for your money in flour pur­ chases, means that you will cut down your living expenses just that much. There is no better equipped mill in the country than this ope. We have every facility in the way of machinery to manufacture flour ECONOMICAL­ LY. Then too the item of “POWER," is a very large one in the expense of mak­ ing flour. In this respect we are espec­ ially favored in the way of making flour at the lowest possible cost, be­ cause WE OWN OUR OWN WATER POWER, which furnishes us with the BEST POWER knoym. But where we effect our greatest saving is in running this big' mill NIGHT and DAY, year in- and year out. This practically cuts our "oper­ ating expense" in TWO. All of these advantages in mahufac■ ture enable us to- sell you French’s White Lily, the HIGHEST GRADE flour, at as LOW A PRICE as you would have to pay for ORDINARY FLOUR. ' -If you will make a batch of dough from the ordinary flour, and a batch from French’s White Lily: bake them side by side in your own oven, you will better appreciate what a big value French’s White Lily is for the money. You can then see how, by using French’s White Lily, it will CUT DOWN YOUR LIVING EXPENSES. You will find that the bread you make from French’s White Lily is AL­ WAYS THE SAME', while the bread you make from the ordinary flour will VARY IN QUALITY’. Ona time it may be fairly good; the next time it will be poor, the reason being that the flour was NOT PROPERLY MANU­ FACTURED, and you may have to throw some of it away—and that is always EXPENSIVE,, because you lose not only the COST of the pro­ ducts, but also YOUR TIME and HARD WORK. And every house­ wife KNOWS that it is a discouraging proposition to have poor bakiii^s. All the mills in the big cities use Michigan wheat in making flour, be­ cause it MAKES THE BEST FLOUR. That’s WHY it commands the HIGH­ EST PRICES in the markets. ”BUT when you buy the flour that those mills make, just remember that YOU have to PAY THE FREIGHT BOTH WAYS—on. the wheat to their mills, v and the freight on the flour back to you. These charges MUST be added to the COST of making the-flour, or the manufacturers couldn't stay in business. We buy the BEST BARRY COUNTY WHEAT right here at home. A good many farmers grow wheat ESPECIALLY FOR US. We give them an EXTRA PRICE per bushel on all wheat that tests ABOVE 60 POUNDS per bushel, and in that way get the best wheat grown. • The fact js that flour has reached such a high price that it behooves ev­ ery housewife to thoroughly investi­ gate. The fact that all the best cooks use French’s White Lily Flour, and the further FACT that more of it is sold in Barry County than of all other flours combined, is one of the best arguments why you should give French’s White Lily Flour a THOROUGH TRIAL. Why not order a sack next time? Why‘not DO IT TODAY? It will mean SAVING M(DNEY for you by cutting down your living expenses. Middleville Roller Mills R. T.

Theodore Rooncvelt’s |H*ace article in a recent number of the Independent will cause bunicwhat uf a shock. Mis projwisition seems to be a good one how­ ever and his plan is one that would assure world-wide, peace. In brief {lie urges:— ' "The only alternative to war,” Mr. Roosevelt's article says, ‘'is the adoption of sofne plan substantially like that which I have advocated. It is possible that after this war lias come to ah end the European contestants will be sufficiently sobered to be willing to con­ sider some such proposal. "My proposal is that the efficient civilized nations—those that arc efficient in war as well as in peace—shall join in a world league for the j>cacc of righteousness. "’iliis means that. they shill by solemn .covenant agree as .to their respective rights which shall not be questioned. "In its essence this plan means that there shall be a great in­ ternational treaty for the peace of righteousness; "that this treaty shall explicitly secure to each nation ami except from tho operations of any international tribunal such' matters as its territorial integrity, honor and vital interest, and shaH 'guarantee it in the possession of these rights." The article declares that "all peace congresses and the like" in jeccnt- years "have done no good whatever to the cause of world peace." Mr. Roosevelt says he had hoped for "more .substantial good” from Hie Hague court established through-The Hague conven­ tions. , . "I authorized the signature of the ^.’nited Stales to these con­ ventions," he goes on. "They forbid the dotation of neutral terri­ tory, and, of course, the subjugation of unoffending neutral, nations, as Belgium has been subjugated." Mr. Roosevelt says he never would have "permitted the United States to be a partf to this mischievous farce" if he had "supposed tliat signing The Hague conventions inrant literally nothing what­ ever Iteyond the expressiok of a pious wSsli winch any power was at liberty to disregard witHJinppnity?* ■ • lu effect, he announces that President Wilson and Secretary Bryan should have enforced The Hague* Conventions with regard to Belgium.* That the)’ did not. he say®, shows they profess "the cult of cowardice” in "timid and selfish abandonment of duty." .. "Each nation," lie says, "should be guaranteed against having any specified rights infringed upon. They would notix made arbitrable, any more than an individual's right of life ami limb is made arbi­ trable; they would be mutually guaranteed. “All other matters that could arise between these nations should be settled by the international court. "The judges'should act not as national representatives but pure­ ly as judges, and in any given case it would probably lie well to chouse them by lot excluding of course, the representatives of the power* wljbsc interests were concerned. “Then, and most , important the nations should severally guarantee to use their entire military force, if necessary, against any nation which defied the decrees of the tribunal or which violated tiny of tlie* rights which iii the rules it was expressly stipulated ./dyuhl hyTeiBHECTEd.-iQ.jjic• styefyfr naiion* .«*>*■ right* to tlirir.tcrri; Jori^Vn^^yahd flic rike.* » ■', ..7T-- ’ _ This Set of High Grade Pure Aluminum Cooking Ware mssaw publiiwn State foovcnUon To the Kepubbeun electors of the State ot A State Convection of the Repub-, mls’abltf. an' yet it looks like it'a laugh­ in'.”—Washington War.

Upon invoicing in our sev­ eral stores, we find that we have on hand many more instruments than it is profitable to carry. Many of thdse have been slightly used, some are only1 store worn, and several are brand new ones, but we are offering all of them at this great sale at a tremendous reduction in prices. Remember these instruments are not the kind that are made to sell at any price the dealer can get, but are all strictly high grade, and are such pianos as we have handled for years, and the most of them your friends and neighbors can recommend, as they are exactly like the ones they have in their own home.

Special low prices on Furniture will also prevail during this sale. it is necessary to pay an enormous price to get a good re­ liable instrument, when the most of the price he asks consists of profit to himself or house he is employed by. We have always made our prices on pianos as low as they could be handled at, with only a small profit to ourselves, giving every customer a strictly square deal. DURING THIS GREAT SALE we have eliminated all ideas of profit to ourselves and are offering High Grade Pianoa at what the ordinary small dealer would have to pay for them at the factory. In the whole assortment of pianos which we offer during this great sale there is not a Stencil Case Piano in the lot, but every one is guaranteed by the makers, whose name is placed on the plate of the instrument. 11839682 PHONE 226 THE PRACTICAL FURNITURE PEOPLE Hastings, Michigan SUDDEN DEATH OF MISS ETTA MAIN, IN CHICAGO LOCAL NEWS ' Mr. and Mrs. Leon Bauer rntcrtnlnk! a number of relative* on Saturday evening, the occaalun being Mr. Bail­ er** birthday.

And with the recent sharp advances in the price of flour, it is becoming more acute every day. You KNOW that the PRICE of flour has sharply advanced the past few weeks. But despite the fact of that advance I have NOT increased the price of my bread, NOR HAVE I CUT DOWN THE WEIGHT OF THE LOAF-which practically means "increasing the price"—as many bakers have done. When you buy a loaf of bread it makes a difference to YOU as to HOW MUCH that loaf weighs. If you are paying just as much for a loaf of bread that weighs 24 OUNCES as you would for a loaf of "Hastings Potato Bread," that weighs 28 ta 30 OUNCES, it stands to reason that you are BEATING YOURSELF out of 4 to 6 ounces. You are not getting "value received" fbr your money. Yet some peo­ ple are beating themselves in just that'way. The Bakery business is my business. I am devoting my time and attention to it. No better bread is made than I am now making—and 1 am giving you MORE OF IT for your money. All that I ask is a living profit on what I sell, depending upon doing a large vol­ ume of business to pay my expenses and leave me a reasonable profit. In this way it has been by constant aim and effort to be of genuine SERVICE to the people of this city and county. I sincerely appreciate the generous patronage and the hearty co-operation of the constantly increasing numbers who deal with me, and who tell me that I am giving the best BREAD VALUES on the market to­ day. I BELIEVE THEM. So will you if you will give my bread a trial. Why not dp it? 1 have always maintained that it did not pay any housewife to bake bread for her family, IF SHE WOULD COUNT HER TIME WORTH ANYTHING AT ALL, when such good bread as “Hasitngs Potato Bread" can be bought for 5 cents or 10 cents per loaf. It stands to reason that by buying "Gold Medal" flour in car-load lots, and all other materials in LARGE QUANTITIES, that fbiiy my materials at a much LOWER PRICE than you can. Likewise by baking hundreds of loaves at one time, the COST of baking one loaf is so infinitesimally SMALL as to hardly be worth considering. , I use the best materials that money can buy. My dough is all mixed by machirF ery; I use the latest improved “SANITARY RACKS” in my bake shop, so that hu­ man hands hardly touch my bread from the time it is mixed, until after it is wrapped in waxed paper and DELIVERED TO YOU. My Bake Shop is on the second floor, away from all dust and dirt, and it is always kept THOROUGHLY CLEAN and SANITARY. You know WHERE Hastings Potato Bread is made, and UNDER WHAT CONDITIONS. You DON’T know that about bread that is shipped in. Star Bakery & Restaurant Phone 381 W. R. JAMIESON, Proprietor tuple bug I- riday eve- , to *p«nd rung. , in the *O!

Mrs. B. H. Coolbaugh PROPRIETOR W. H. COUCH Auctioneer B. J. WELLMAN Clerk Thomas Kelly. Deceased. George T. Kelly, eon. bavin* filed in said court his petition preying that In responso to many inquiries, Pro­ fessor o. B. Nystrom. dairyman at tho Washington state college, hag pre­ pared tbe following statement: Each summer a large number .of pastures dry up. or al least begin to (ait In order td keep up the milk flow some­ thing to help the pastures aloox not only shows In tho milk pall but length­ ens the life of the pasture. Crops that may be used for thia pur­ pose are thousand headed kale, peas •nd oats, vetch and oats, peas and bnrley, alfalfa, corn, and the clovers. Those may be usnd either as soiling crops or aa silage. Any of tbq. root crops may also be used to advantage. If they are large enough tor thia pur­ pose no early in the season. The thoughtful dairyman prepares for this shortage of pasture by aowtn* these soiling crops each spring, at tM tervala of from three to four weeks, and has them reedy for the cows when needed. But if these special ’ soiling crops are not sown, any green food that will be relished by the ani­ mal a Is valuable to keep their diges­ tion In good shape and stimulate tho milk flow. The summer silo Io probably th* best solution of this problem of sum­ mer feed, fer It enables the dairyman to harvest his crop at the proper tlm* and then feed It out when needed in , Just as good a condition aa when put* into the silo.. Concerning fodder corn tor soiling. Professor Henry says: “On farms Jacking summer silage, feeding coin forage In tbe green stage should be­ come general, tor the reason that dur­ ing the late summer and early fall lb* pastures are often scant and ^animal/ forced to subsist on them suffer from lack of eufflclent food and can not do their best. An acre of ripened corn, fod.in early tali to dairy eowa, which ' are others las on poor food, may so ad­ vance their condition aa to return dou­ ble the value It would yield were it> held over until winter and frd al a time when there Is often a plethora oC tbe same material." -----------------------------.1 I tan HrId Gleaner Notre.

YOU CAN DO IT IF YOU’LL TRY $ As - £ -■ Right at the Very beginning of 1915 is just the time to resolve to MAKE IT A WINNER. You can do it easily if you’ll try, and PERSEVERE. One resolution we suggest, and one which you know will be a good one—is to open a savings account with us AT ONCE—putting in a given sum of money EV­ ERY WEEK during-the whole year—be the amount ever so small—make it what­ ever you can afford, but MAKE IT, make it SOMETHING, so that at the beginning of 1916 you can look at your Savings Book and feel that you have not only gained something in financial worth, but you have strengthened your character by keeping a good, resolution. ’ You look at the successful business men today, and you will see that they com­ menced ”at the bottom round" and worked their way up. They SUCCEEDED by "SAVING"—and so can YOU. ' ' A small amount deposited in our SAVINGS DEPARTMENT each week, will amount to a good sum in a few years, because we pay you 3 PER CENT INTER­ EST on your savings deposits, and COMPOUND IT TWICE EACH YEAR. Your deposits in this bank are j’ust as safe as a Government Bond, while your interest re­ turns will be 50 PER CENT MORE. It is all "up to you" what you will do in 191.5. You can SAVE something each week, or you can spend your money as fast as you make it. But with all of the examples of successful men—and women too—who have risen to positions of prominence simply because, by “ SAVING,".they had the ready money to take advantage of "opportunity" there isn’t any question as to what YOU OUGHT TO DO. s I ANK HASTINGS CITY Hastings, Michigan “The Bank That Does Things for You । of IJman.

We lean decidedly towards "QUALITY" GOODS. We have always felt that in Drugs, QUALITY IS MORE IMPORTANT than in other lines. For instance when we hand out a bottle of medicine, prepared according to some physicians prescription,’ we want to KNOW that that medicine bears the stamp of QUALITY. Other­ wise WE WON’T BE SATISFIED. This Drug Store is one of the "Old Pioneera" of Hastings and Barry County. It was started upon the theory that “QUALITY WILL WIN," and that policy has ever been foremost in conducting it. That we have been true to its aims, it is only necessary to state that we have one of the largest general Drug stocks in the state, and a constantly growing list of patrons, who deal with the confident assurance that at this store they always get the best ktlti.BMRBI I value for their money.

Buying flour is PURELY a "BUSI- • NESS PROPOSITION." You don’t buy flour for "sentimental' reasons.” You bu^ it because flour is the MOST IMPORTANT food product in the American home, and YOU WANT THE BEST FOR YOUR MONEY, just as EVERYBODY ELSE. If you don’t get the BE^T VALUE, you are not conducting your household on the most economical basis. You recognize the FACT too, that in BUYING flour, there is something MORE important fo YOU to consider than just the PRICE. There’s "QUALITY," which really OUGHT to be considered ABOVE the mere question of "PRICE." There are some women who VERY RARELY make GOOD BREAD for instance, because they NEVER buy GOOD FLOUR. There is nothing that is harder to digest; nothing that will - -knock out a person’s digestive appar-., . afus quicfcerr rhdn wiMk'J'heavy;’1 ‘" gy" bread. And with growing chil­ dren, who are "ALWAYS HUN­ GRY," think what a bad effect feeding them with that kind of bread MUST have. No growing boy or girl can de­ velop a strong, robust constitution, whose ’ system is being continually poisoned by undigested, or indigesti­ ble, food. A boy, or girl, starting out to fight life’s battles under those condi­ tions is greatly "handicapped," right at the very start. You want to have your children do well; you want to see them strong and healthy. A clean mind and a healthy body is the most VALUABLE heritage you can leave < them, but you cannot leave it to them by feeding them food made from flour that is NOT properly made. It leads to dyspepsia and kindred ailments, and dyspeptics are invariably sullen, morose and irritable. They can’t help il; they’re SICK; and the future looks dark to them, instead of bright and cheerful. The reason for having poor bread for family use is because people do. NOT give the "FLOUR QUESTION" the attention they should. They KNOW that some kinds of shoes an<J clothing, for instance, are better VAL­ UES than other makes, even though they COST NO MORE. But when it comes to FLOUR, they seem to regard “flour as flour" without any reference to QUALITY. Any housewife can EASILY .deter­ mine that, by making a batch of dough ' from French’s White Lily Flour, and a batch from any other flour. Make them into loaves and put them in the oven SIDE BY SIDE. Don’t "favor either one.” You’ll be surprised at the RESULTS—but you’ll think more of French’s White Lilv Flour after that. We GUARANTEE EVERY SACK of French’s White Lily Flour to PLEASE YOU. If it doesn’t all you have to do is to return it to your Groc­ er’s, or Elevator man, and get your money back. . .There’s the -HIGHEST -QUALLTV” inTVentdYs While -Lily Flbui and it DOES NOT COST YOU ANY MORE THAN ORDINARY FLOUR, because there, isn’t a better equipped mill in the country than we have, and we run our mill NIGHT AND DAY, year in and year out—-which of itself ADDS to the EVEN QUALITY of the flour. We CLEAN the grain BET­ TER; we take MORE PAINS in mak­ ing it; and it COSTS US MORE TO MAKE than other flours cost, because we put our flour through seventeen dif­ ferent sets of rolls, where ordinary mills use only 5.or 6. We are able to offset this EXTRA COST TO US, however, by our "economies" of man­ ufacture, occasioned by our OWNING our own WATER POWER, and run­ ning our mill night and day—which practically cuts our "operating ex. pense" in TWO.

At the present time there are OVER 4,000 "Re .all Druggists" in the country, and ONLY the .most prominent Druggists are accepted. Every Rexall Druggist is able to .BUY his goods at a trifle above ACTUAL MANUFACURING EXPENSE, and for that reason is able to quote either a lower price, or give you a BETTER VALUE FOR THE MONEY.

Dantai Ell Bow.s! uy th* weight of ctnturiM. h* Will Ferrin ms in Haetinr* RrttirTh« Burdick school When you smoke a cigar, you want a “SATISFACTORY" smoke. You can’t get it if the Cigar you buy is all “dried up,” and covered with dust and dirt. You go into the great majority of places where Cigars are sold, and you will see boxes of cigars setting on open shelves, or in cases tthat .were built for other uses than holding Cigars. Cigars under such conditions will DRY OUT in a very short time, and will lose all the good tobacco flavor. When you buy a Cigar here, you get one kept in DUST-PROOF ZINC-LINED CASES in which the temperature is ALWAYS kept at just the PROPER DEGREE. Your Cigar is JUST RIGHT, and it is CLEAN. There’s al­ ways SATISFACTION in such a smoke, and you get the BEST VALUE for your money. That’s why discriminating smokers buy their Cigars here. Are you one of them? If not, WHY NOT?

Tbe success of the BANNER'S plan of advertising sajes has naturally led people to ex­ pect that an auction sale in Barry Co. will be advertised in the BANNER, just as they expect the letter carrier will deliver their mail. -3 RD—BECAUSE OF ITS SMALL EXPENSE.

The BAN­ NER goes into practically every home in Barry Co. The people naturally look to the BANNER to learn about Auction Sales. If a Barry Co. man wants for his own purposes any tool or live stock advertised in any sale, he knows just where to go to find it. He will be prepared tp bid what hc;bc] lieves the article or animal is worth, because he has use for it, 'Thfjr^'will be no element of speculation in his bid. With the old plan, the people m the immediate neighborhood were the only ones who knew of the sale, and they would generally bid because they hoped to buy something cheij^' .^ , '.me,m>. <.« «r Our S.

Will Acquire the Habit of THRIFT and ECONOMY Have you ever thought what the small bits of money you. have "foolishly” expended, would amount to in just ONE YEAR? The amount would certainly SURPRISE you. The young man who spends his "pennies” foolishly, will soon get in the habit of spending his "dollars” foolishly. • The time to LEARN TO SAVE is in the early years of life, before extravagant “habits” are formed. One of the great lessons of life is to learn that "pennies make dollars”— and dollars make "INDEPENDENCE." The poverty and improvidence of a large number of people is not due so much to a DESIRE to spend every cent they EARN, as to their failure to understand the VALUE of "SMALL ECONOMIES.” If a start had been made, no matter HOW SMALL, of "laying aside" a small portion of their income EACH WEEK, or EACH MONTH, the lessons of THRIFT and ECONOM Y would have been learned. Our Savings Department is an ideal place in which to start an ac­ count that may lay the FOUNDATION of your fortune. ! Deposits of ONE DOLLAR OR MORE will be received and we will pay you 3 PER CENT INTEREST. COMPOUNDED TWICE A YEAR. We have started a lot of people in the RIGHT DIRECTION. Some had never before saved anything—and a great many had nev­ er adopted a SYSTEMATIC METHOD, or "HABIT," of saving— because they had never given the matter serious consideration. But it is the "SYSTEMATIC METHOD” of Saving that “COUNTS," and if every man, woman, boy or girl, could be imbued with THAT FACT, it could not help but have a most wholesome effect on the future career of the one who adopts it. The future would be assured and you will be prepared for any contingency that may arise.

Sumatra Wrappers cost a lot of money, but they don’t add one "iota' to the SMOKING "QUALITIES" of a Cigar—sim­ ply make it look pretty. This store has a reputation for HIGH QUALITY Cigars. Any Cigar you may choose from our varied lines, will be up to your most sanguine expectations—and we have just the size, color and brand you prefer.

Have you ever thought what this means in case of a storm like the dhe experienced in this vicinity last Monday? Hundreds of tele­ phone poles were broken so that it was impossible for us to coinmunicate with the men in LaBarge , Middleville, Nashville and Lake Odessa, who patrol and inspect our transmission lines and re­ pair same, when storms and other causes make service interruptions. The fact that we endeavor to render the best of service is conclu­ sively shown by the loyal and unceasing e^orts of these men to re­ store service. Our Lake Odessa agent drove 26 miles; our Nash­ ville agent 14 miles; our Caledonia agent 43 miles; our Middleville agent 16 miles; one of the Power Plant operators at LaBarge, 20 miles; our Superintendent, 24 miles; and our Line Foreman, 38 miles; all in a driving sleet storm, and without orders from this Office. We could not tell in Hastings just where these men were, at any one time, until they arrived at Hastings, or finally got to a ■ telephone connected on the Hastings exchange and informed us of their whereabouts. In order to turn on the current from the LaBarge Power Station, it was necessary to send a man on the four o’clock train to Caledonia and then for him to drive from Cale­ donia to the LaBarge plant, this being necessary because the tele­ phone and telegraph lines were out of order. We mention the foregoing to bring to mind a phase of the Public Utility business that is often overlooked. The work done by these men last Monday was not exceptional as they are constantly ren­ . dering like services without the Public’s knowledge, all working for but a single purpose, namely, to ’’ALWAYS RENDER REAL SERVICE.’’ ' THORNAPPLE GAS & ELECTRIC CO / ' 1 . �PA«K thrft: THIC HARTfMOB BAWNFK. rrjutUARY 4. ISIS. guick LOCAL NEWS TH.E ELEVATOR MAN'S STORY. WHY The BANNER’S Plan of Handling Auction Sales Ought to Be Favored by Every One Who Contemplates Having a Sale In Barry County: 1 ST—BECAUSE IT IS A DEMONSTRATED SUCCESS.. In the past * six years, over 750 Auction Sales have been advertised in the BANNER to thejnutual satisfaction of the sellers and buyers.. We have letters Irom many who have advertised their sales in the BANNER showing that on a single article they have realized enough more than they expected to pay all the expenses of the auction. In all cases when results have been com­ pared with expectations the sales advertised in the BANNER have exceeded expectations, in some cases by several hundred dollars as wc can show by let- ■ ters and personal references. ND—BECAUSE PEOPLE HAVE COME TO LOOK TO THE BAN­ 2 NER FOR ANNOUNCEMENTS OF AUCTION SALES. The success of the BANNER’S plan of advertising sales has naturally led people to ex­ pect that an auction sale in Barry Co. will bp advertised in the- BANNER, just as they expect the letter carrier will deliver their maiL *3 RD—BECAUSE OF ITS SMALL EXPENSE. We make a uniform •^charge for our service in reaching practically all the people of Barry Co. that is but little above what used to be charged for sale bills that were read by only a few of the people. TH-BECAUSE IT PUTS THE SELLER IN TOUCH WITH HIS BEST AVAILABLE CUSTOMER IN BARRY COUNTY. The BAN­ . NER' goes into practically every home in’ Barry Co. The people naturally look to the BANNER to learn about Auction Sales. If a Barry Co. man wants for his own purposes any tool or live stpek advertised in any sale, he knows j’ust where to go to find it. He will be prepared to bid what he be­ lieves the article or animal is worth, because he has use for it. There will be no element of speculation in his bid. With the old plan, the people in the immediate neighborhood were the only ones who knew of the sale, and they would generally bld because they hopetl to.buy something cheap. A TH—BECAUSE IT AVOIDS HAVING TWO AUCTION SALES IN THE SAME NEIGHBORHOOD ON THE SAME DAY. The BAN­ NER makes dates for the auctioneers and practically all of them report the sales they book to this office, which is the recognized auction sale headquar­ ters. If we find that two sales are booked for the same locality we can and do at once take it up With the auctioneers-, and arrange for a change of one of the sales, thereby avoiding spoiling both sqles. This is an important con­ sideration. ' 5 TH—BECAUSE THE BANNER’S PLAN REACHES ALL THE PEO­ 6 PLE OF BARRY COUNTY WHILE THE AUCTION BILL REACH­ ED ONLY A FEW IN THE IMMEDIATE LOCALITY OF THE SALE. This is so evident that any elaboration of this point is quite unnecessary. 7TH—BECAUSE THE BANNER CONTAINING THE AUCTION z ADVERTISING IS LAID AWAY AND PRESERVED IN THE HOME WHILE THE BILL IB SUBJECT TO THE WINDS AND RAINS AS IT IS TACKED ON THE^FENCES AND TREES. THE BANNER'S METHOD ot advortltlng Auction Salol has boon endorsed ist—By the State Association of Auctioneers. and—By all the leading Auctioneers of Barry County. 3rd—By all Auctioneers in other Counties where the same method has been pursued. Any printing office can print auction sale bills, but only a paper having a large general circulation, such as the BANNER has can successfully advertise an auction sale that will bring results. The BANNER is now printing 5,200 papers each week and covers the County "like a blanket.” We would be pleased to hear from anyone contemplating having an Auc­ tion Sale and we will mail them one of our booklets, containing 16 pages of information and suggestions on conducting an Auction Sale. You should not fail to secure one of these booklets if you contemplate holding a sale. Its suggestions will mean larger and better results from your sale.

This time the Inventor Is an Australian, and the claims made for bls discovery certainly do not err on the side of modesty. In addition to superior hard­ ness. he announces that his now alloy can be welded and soldered, has a high tensile strength, and is noncortoslve. Thlm'lsst quality, of course, be­ longs to all forms of tho metal. Tho world will look on such claims with a skeptical eye. and yet. they represent the goal toward which tho world la moving. Sooner or later, by a sudden discovery or a long series ot jslow advances, aluminum will be made to do moot of the work that nbw fulls on iron and steel.

You h^ve to PAY for the dust and dirt, and it detracts from the QUALITY of the flour you pay your good money for. These are facts so plain that anyone can understand them, and they indi­ cate the CAUSE of the difference be­ tween GOOD flour and ORDINARY flour. Every housewife knows that there is a big difference in flour. She knows that two different grades of flour may LOOK jtist alike, but when she bakes with them they don’t "bake” alike. One will make delicious bread; the other poor. The REAL DIFFERENCE in those flours is "simply in the WAY THEY ARE MADE. The poor kind may be made from wheat that is properly "CLEANED," and that is run through only a few sets of rolls. In that case there will be more or less dust and dirt in the flour. And being run through only four or five sets of rolls, the flour infill not be of "even granulation." That means that the flour will not be of even QUALITY." The particles of flour will be of different sizes, some $3.38 , 3.00 2.63 . 2.25 G. F. Chidester John Hu Ungs. (MMMMMMMwnannnannnaannnnnnnnaDnnDnnnnnDanBMWMMMMMMM N ■ . . . .

For this rea­ son it will NOT absorb the yeast and water EVENLY all through the batch of dough, and when it comes to bake it CANNOT bake evenly* That is where French’s White Lily Flour is far superior to ANY OTHER FLOUR. Every kernel of wheat, go­ ing into French’s White Lily Hour, is thoroughly CLEANED and POLISH­ ED by special patented macnMcty, and every particle of the flour is run through 17 SETS OF ROLLS, each operation gradually reducing the size of the particles, until the last opera­ tion, when they are all reduced to the same uniform size. That’s what makes French's White Lily Flour of such a smooth EVEN QUALITY. That’s why it is ALWAYS THE SAME, and the reason that all the best cooks use it. But we do not like to have you take our word for it. We would much rath­ er have you CONVINCE YOURSELF that French’s White Lily Flour is the very BEST VALUE for YOUR MONEY. Just make a batch of dough from French’s White Lily Flour, and a batch from any other fleur that is claimed to be "just as gdod.” Bake them in the SAME OVEN at the SAME TIME, right side by side. We have told you WHY French’s White Lily is BETTER than any other. If you’ll try this experiment you’ll CONVINCE YOURSELF that it IS BETTER. Why not order a sack today? • Middleville Roller Mills R.

Service and Good Fuel Save You Money Mr. Smoker : You can’t ALWAYS tell a good cigar by its I name, any more than you can by its "looks." A Cigar can "change its name," and prove an "alibi” every day in the week. ; Many times when a certain brand of Cigars ; has reached a good sale, the manufacturers re­ duce the "cost of manufacture" by putting in cheaper stock. The "name" remains JUST THE SAME—but the Cigar isn’t. In supplying the demands of smokers of all : tastes and desires, our task has been a heavy one, because our aim is to ALWAYS protect our patrons. ». We’ve made change after change, adding a brand here, cutting out a brand there, until to-. day we can consistently say that we have the most perfect stock of cigars of all grades and prices that you can find in Western Michigan —and EVERY ONE is kept under perfect con­ ditions. You are missing a lot of the joys of smoking if you don’t buy your Cigars here. The Club Cigar Store “THE PLACE TO MEET YOUR FRIENDS” Jefferson St., Hastings, Mich. J. F. Hoonan Phone 106 E. J.

In the pa,t ; six years, over 750 Auction Sales have been advertised in Hie BANNER to the mutual satisfaction of the sellers and buyers.. We have letters from many who have advertised their sales in the BANNER showing that on a single article they have realized enough more than they expected to pay all the expenses of the auction. In all cases when results have been com­ pared with expectations the sales advertised in the BANNER have exceeded ex|>ectatious, in some cases by several hundred dollars as we can show by let­ ters and personal references.

The success of the BANNER’S plan of advertising sales has naturally led people to ex­ pect that an auction sale in Barry Co. will be advertised in the BANNER, just as they expect the letter carrier will deliver their maij. | 1 O RD—BECAUSE OF ITS SMALL EXPENSE. We make a uniform charge for out service in reaching practically all the people of Barry Co. that is but little above what used to be charged for sale bills that were read 1»y only a lew of the people. . r | 1 | 4 TH—BECAUSE IT PUTS THE SELLER IN TOUCH WITH HIS “BEST AVAILABLE CUSTOMER IN BARRY COUNTY. The BAN­ NER goes into practically every home in Barry Co. The people naturally look to the BANNER to learn about Auction Sales. If a Barry Co. man wants for his own purposes any tool or live stock advertised in any sale, he knows just where to go to find it. He will be prepared to bid what he be­ lieves the article or animal is worth, because he has use for it. There will be no element of speculation in 'his bid. With the old plan, the people in thb immediate neighborhood were the only ones who knew of the sale, and they would generally bid because they hoped to buy something cheap.

We are spending our money to tell something that perhaps you hadnt thought about. You can easily find out whether wtyrt we tell you ; is true When you buy Plug or Fine Cut Tobacco at the ordinary store, duping the Winter months, the tobacco is "DRIED OUT." That's because the dry heat used in heating the store, where you bought your tobacco, takes all the moisture out of the air, tfnd out of’the Tobacco YOU BUY. The Plug To­ bacco gets to be as hard as a pine knot, and the Fine Cut "powders" up like snuff. Neither is fit to use, and both have lost that good “tobacco flavor" that you pay your money for. 1st or el- Such stores do not make an EXCLUSIVE business of handling Tobaccos, as we DO. They handle it as a "side line." You go into the ordinary stores and you'll see cases of Plug Tobaccos OPEN, so they will not only “dry out" quickly, but they also catch all the dust, dirt and germs, that come from "sweeping out." and doing other work about the place. This filth -settles down on the tobacco YOU BUY. You'll admit that is true. We conduct an EXCLUSIVE Tobacco Business, both wholesale and re­ jail. .Every bit of our Tobacco is kept in ZINC-LINED "DUST PROOF" Cases, that. are kept ALY at AYS j he RIGHT degree of temperature.

The Matchless Car of Motordom manufacturers have ight the ideal power prini The Cadillac Company has never relaxed for a month, a week, qr a day, its patient pursuit of that undying principle which would prove to be ultimate and final. In the course of'that long journey toward perfection, the Cadillac Company has given Serious consideration to every reputable type of motor—endeavoring to scru­ tinize with scientific impartiality the virtues ana limitations of each and every one alike. It is admitted, we believe, that this Company produced in the four cylinder field, succession of cars which earned the title ’’Standard of the World." Beyond that, loomed for them only one hope and possibility—the promise of a mo­ tor in which there would be no lapse, no pause, no hesitation between impulses, but an overlapping of strokes so complete as to produce a flow of power almost literally liquid in its continuity. They sought the medium by which the Cadillac would be endowed, not with ap- you are cordially invited to attend the how proximate freedom from gear shifting, or approximate hill-climbing ability on high, or approximately swift acceleration, but with the highest possible form of these three characteristics. z The Cadillac already possessed those qualifications irr an extraordinary measure, but they wanted them developed to a point beyond which it was not possible to go and they were developed when the Cadillac Company produced them.

The democratic Washington Post of February j joins the New York World, the S’ew York Times, the Chicago Examiner and other leading democratic papers iti pointihg out the deplorable conditions existing in the United States; due to' errors of the administration they helped to put in power. The Post says:— The various reports as to the preparations of Democratic leadera for the inauguration of activities looking to the opening of the campaign for the Presidency of 1916 must be regarded as premature. The Democratic party has much to do before .it can enter into any campaign before the electorate of the l'nited States.It has to provide for an American merchant marine. It'has to make such marine safe and Arrange protection of our coasts by a larger and more powerful navy. It must allay apprehension as to our land defense by providing for a stronger army. Harbors iqust be imprbveil; waterways made of greater service: conservation promoted: rural credit system established; the postal service extended and developed, not dwarfed, stunted, or limited. The voters of the United States desire holiest administration and strict economy in such administration, but they demand that the funds be made available to produuce the results above criqmcratedr The voters of the United States arc strongly in favor of every one <>f these policies and the necessary legislative and executive ac­ tion which: Will carry them out. They arc proud of their country: they know it is no third-class nation, and they do not expect it to be financed ih less than a firstclass manner. The voters of the country are opposed to a Treasury deficit, and they arc even more bitterly opposed to a war tax ly timc’of peace. The Democratic party is in no shape to make its debut for the season of 1916. It has promises to redeem by legislation, and.* has errors tu correct by the same process* . ’ . Its legislative action upon sugar, for instance, deprived the gov.ernment of revenue, seriously injured the business .interests of Louisiana and other States, and benefited not a consumer in the republic, for prices are higher nbw by a large percentage than when the tariff schedule was passed. It was an error, an economical mistake, a political blunder. It should be corrected, but while correcting that, the Demo­ cratic party should go further and revise the entire tariff law so as to produce the revenue required by the government to carry ou6the policies the people demand. No party responsible for a Treasury deficit and for an oppres­ sive and offensive war tax has any chance to win befbre the voters I of the Union in a national campaign.

That is WHY French’s White Lily Flour is the LOWEST -PRICED flour on the market—QUALITY considered— and we GUARANTEE EVERY SACK OF IT. You may be able to buy other flours at as low a cost PER SACK, but. you will find French’s White Lily to be far SUPERIOR IN QUALITY. People h^ve found this •to be true by experience, and for that reason there is MORE French’s White Lily sold and used in Barry Coun­ ty than of ALL OTHER FLOURS COMBINED. People KNOW that it is the BEST VALUE for the money, and EVERY SACK IS A BARGAIN at the price. . Every housewife knows that there is a big difference in flour. She knows that two different grades of flour may LOOK just alike, but when she bakes with them they don t “bake alike.” One will make delicious bread; the other poor. The REAL DIFFERENCE in those flours is simply in the WAY THEY ARE MADE. The poor kind may be made from wheat that is properly CLEANED" and that is run through only a few sets of rolls. In that case there will be more or less dust and dirt in the flour. And being run through only four or five sets of rolls, the flour will not be of “even granulation. That means that the flour will not be of. even QUALITY." The particles ^f flour will be of dif­ ferent sizes, some larger and some smaller. For this rea­ son it will NOT absorb the yeast and water. EVENLY all through the batch of .dough, and when it comes to bake it CANNOT bake evenly. We will NEVER let the question of EXPENSE stand in t”* way of making French’s White Lily just a little BET­ any otber fl°ur- Your money can't buy as a A°ur f°r the price. And when you buy it YOU RUN NO CHANCE. When you buy Franch’s White Lily you get a GUARANTEED flour. Every sack you buy is GUARANTEED to SATISFY YOU. In case it should not please you, all you have to do is to return it to your Grocer, or elevator man, and GET YOUR MONEY BACK. It’s BEST friends are those who have used it fpr the LONGEST TIME. Why not I RY IT the next time you order flour? Don’t any ?ub8titute. or anything claimed to be JUST AS GOOD, because it won t be. Every grocer and elevator man in Barry County handles French’s White Lily. [I. ” r y--- J •••wraaung CApCIIHJClll JUSt IO con­ vince you of tj>e superiority of French’s White Lily, just make a hatch of bread from French’s White Lily, and a batch from any other flour claimed to be “just as good.” rut both m your oven side by side and bake them at the same time. Give them both the “same show.” Don’t show any partiality towards either. After you have done this you can SEE FOR YOURSELF which flour you like best. Why not try it? Middleville Roller Mills R. T.

We carry sTfull line of very best cigars and at all prices, and the most fastidious smoker can feel assured of just the taste that will tickle his palate most. There’s a reason for these things, Mr. Smoker:—We make these statements ^nd we are in position to back them up—now no­ tice the reason, we have the proper equip­ ment for keeping tobacco in its PERFECT state. That is why our stoxe has become known as the "home of good smokes." If every young man or young woman would make it his or her fixed purpose to save a part of the money he or she receives in wages each week, and* put it in this bank, it would be .only a few years before there would be a comfortable sum to his or her credit, and best of all, a most valuable habit would have been formed:— • THE SAVING HABIT Did you ever stop to think that while you are working for some one else, you are selling the best . years of your service? Every one looks forward to the time when he can go in. business or acquire property for himself, but no one*can aequire a profitable business, or secure a profitable property/with­ out some basis for CREDIT. The best possible basis for credit is a GOOD BANK ACCOUNT, AND A REPUTATION FOR BEING A MONEY SAVER. The money that YOU "put in this bank NOW will WORK FOR YOU every DAY, NIGHT and SUNDAY, until you are readv to use it, because WE PAY THREE PER CENT INTEREST ON ALL SAVINGS DEPOSITS, and COMPOUND THE INTEREST TWICE EACH YEAR. That is just as high a Vate of interest as can be paid consistently with the SAFETY of dejxisits in the judgment of this country’s best and most careful bankers. And it will be BETTER for you to rest comfortably, and have your DEPOSITS become a SAFE • 3 per cent investment, than to be uneasy about it as you would be, if you put it in banks that seek de­ posits at higher rates. ' . ■ When you deposit your money in this bank, you can know that it1 is loaned on choice Barry Co. real estate and to Barry Co. people whom you know. That is worth a ‘ good deal lo you because you KNOW your money is SAFE; know it js not loaned out to speculatoi-s or to institutions qf doubtful credit It has always been the policy of this bank to-loan its funds to home pepple whom, and whose"' credit, we.know. So you may know at all times the money you entrust to oureare is SAFE. The sooner you commence putting your money in our SAVINGS DEPARTMENT, the sooner it will commence to WORK FOR YOU.

Now I want to tell you with more enthusiasm than 1 have ever used before that everything you get from here shows quality. Why? Because we have a quality man. He has been working io one of.the largest and best equipped bakeries in Western Michigan. As well as being a good braad man, he has the best line of rolls, cakes and cookies that were ever shown in fl Barry County. His friedcakes, too, are not of the greasy kind, but are very light and contain that everlasting taste. 9 Just a Word About Cookies Yau may think I 2 cents an exorbitant price for a dozen cookies, but let me tell you there is more quality eating in one dozen of those 1 2 cent cookies, than you’d find in 2 dozen of any others. Then we also have -10 cent cookies at the old standard. Get Star Bakery goods when you get baked goods.

From now until Dec­ oration D^ywe expect to have several carloads of 'granite shipped us to fill our orders for the Decora-, tion Day work. Do you realize what an ad­ vantage it is to you to bi^y a monument from a firm who buys granite by the carload? Hark to r FIRST—When we buy a carload of granite we . can get a much lower price than as though we bought a few pieces at a time. We give our customers the ad. , . ’• . vantage > ■ - vcuilciof ^c this saving in price. SECOND—By buying direct from the quarry owner and man­ ufacturer we are able to get the very highest grade of stone and we know what the stock is. Our custom­ ers get the advantage of this. , THIRD—When we buy by the carload we can get prompter shipments, and save time by getting direct transpor­ tation and we also save some in frieght rates on car­ load lots. Our customers are better served because DECORATION DAY of these facta Is a time when public demonstration is made of our feeling of love and respect for those departed. It is a time when we pay highest honor to our war heroes, and every one feels pride in the appearance of the last resting place of their departed dead. Suit­ able monuments and markers add greatly to the beauty of ov ■ cemeteries. If you are contemplating placing a mon^me.-.t or marker upon your cemetery lot this coming spring or summer we urge you to see us at once and place an order in time for Decora­ tion Day delivery. No money is required until delivery is made and you can just as well have your order in now. Many have been disappointed other years on a late order, expecting to be able to have work placed before Decoration Day and not getting their order in until late. We want to impress upon you the im­ portance of attending to the matter st once. The small picture at the right is only one of the many pieces of fine work we have placed in the cemeteries of Barry county and adjoining counties. You can see our work everywhere.

PACE SIX Announcing KRIT tor 1915 Price $850, Fully Equipped ITS THE LAST WORD IN VALUE , Values are vital things. And in American business today there is a big tendency toward increasing the horse-power of money—yours and mine. Summing up the Krit selling situation for 19152 in preparation for this personal statement, I am astonished at the splendid number of dollars we have added to the car and taken away from the price. It is a real pleasure to say, without adjectives or exaggeration, that the Krit for 1915 is the last word in value. With a car more beautiful, more powerful, more distinctive, with greater refinements, we are actually giving this year greater value in an auto than has ever been given before. NOTE A FEW OF THE REFINEMENTS:-----Genuine Streamline body, four inches longer. The Motor actually 25 per cent more powerful. Center control, besides Stewart speedometer, rain vision wind shield. High priced electric starter, built in and sold with the car. POWER, FUEL ECONOMY The Krit is pre-eminently a motor For emergen­ cies. Its response at grade crossings, threading crowded streets when collision threatens—any one of the thousand crises of driving—is instant. Ob­ serve the Krit at various speeds, note the absence of vibration coupled with the smooth, steady inter­ play of parts. With every inch of metal'bathed in oil and built of special, non-wearing alloy steels, the remarkable life of the Krit motor is a mechani­ cal fact that is both surprising and satisfying. Even with an added horse-power of 25 per cent, we maintain our deserved reputation for fuel and oil economy,'which has made the Krit motor a marvel to the motor-wise. Most owners average around 23 and 24 miles to the gallon of gasoline (few average below 20), while oil consumption aver­ ages 120 miles to'the quart. For economy, efficien­ cy, excellence in designing and construction, the Krit motor is the equal, if not the superior, of those used in many much higher priced cars. - CONVENIENCE UNEQUALLED Swing open the door of the driving compeytment and be delighted with' Krit’s convenience and ease of control. Everything is within easy reach. The flush type Stewart speedometer, magnetic type gasoline gauge, electric dash light, current indicator and carburetor air control, ignition switch and elec­ trie light switch are all clustered on a single instru­ ment plate close at hand. Beams of the dash light are deflected to illuminate all the instruments at once. In the rear are robe rail and foot rail with floor covered with extra fine quality of carpet, while the body is beautifully upholstered through­ out, and the floor boards in front and the running boards are covered with cork linoleum, nickel trimmed. A specially designed tire carrier is lo­ cated dn the rear, which retains both tire and rim perfectly rigid. It can’t rattle. With every func­ tion of the car in easy arm’s reach, the convenience of the Krit in any of its models is one of its surest claims to popularity. BENNETT GARAGE k Phone H. E. BENNETT.

MIDDLEVILLE DISTINCTIVE BEAUTY When all is said and done, there is no car like a beautiful car, and for beauty there is no car like the Krit. Its design is a thing of delight and has pro­ voked this phrase on a thousand streets: “There is the finest looking car I have seen yet!’’ ,The smooth ’ oval on its fenders, the soft gradation of its lines in tapered bonnet and rounded radiator, the beveled head lights, the perfect streamline body, its roomy luxurious, big-car appearance, its many external all-at-a glance evidences of high-priced car equip­ ment, the unobstructed running boards and severe simplicity of door construction, have combined to make the 1915 Krit our most beautiful car and one of the most beautiful on the American market. Couple this external' elegance with the enduring strength and perfect mechanical action of its parts and you have in this new Krit a car of unsurpassed possibilities. 019 East Bond 8t., 2nd Hnbbath Mmol.

Because They KNOW which Flour "Brings the Best Results" Some men insist upon buying -the flour for home use, because they may be able to save a penny or two on a sack. They take it home and expect their wives to DO the IMPOSSI­ BLE by making good bread from it. If the men could only see the spoiled bak­ ings and poor bakings that go out to “feed the chickens, or pigs.” as-the result of trying to use an inferior grade of flour, they would then realize that it is by far the MOST EXPEN­ SIVE to buy. ’ ■i j I j f ■ | And then, it is unfair to the housewife to compel her to use a grade of flour which she KNOWS is NO GOODjand in which she has no confidence. Spoiled bakings are SURE TO RESULT, and along with the expense goes a lot pF her valuable time. Every woman has plenty to do around home, without having her time worse than WASTED, in throwing away that which she has spent so much time to .have just right. There is no article of food that you should be more particular about than flour. Poor flour forms one of the greatest avenues of waste, extravagance and unhappiness in the home, as every housewife well knows. Poultry and Hides. I Chickens, alive. Io to lie.

Then it goes on its way through I 7 sets of rolls, until every bit of flour goodness, and sweetness, is taken from the grain, and becomes a part of the flour. In the ordinary mill only 6 or 8 sets of rolls are used. ,z • When you buy French’s White LilyxFlour you absolutely RUN NO CHANCES, because EVERY PARTICLE of French’s White Lily Flour is made upon the most scientific plan that over 40 years of experience has proven to be the BEST. And back of it is the most mod­ ern and up-to-date machinery that money can buy. It has won a place in thousands and thousands of homes that no other flour can supplart’t. • Then by running our mill day and night we are able to produce flour of the most even QUALITY, and produce it at a LOWER COST. The saving we make in this way we put back into the flour in the way of CLEAN­ ING THE WHEAT BETTER, and putting it through two or three times as many sets of rolls as the ordinary mill. That’s why French’s White Lily doesn’t cost you any more than ordinary flour. French’s White Lily Flour is not made like any other flour.

Every one looks forward to the time when he can go An business or acquire property for himself, but no one can acquire a profitable business, or secure a-profitable property- with­ out some basis for CREDIT. The best possible basis for credit is a GOOD BANK ACCOUNT, AND A REPUTATION FOR BEING A MONEY SAVER. The money that YOU put in thi^bank NOW will WORK FOR YOU every DAY, NIGHT and SUNDAY, until you are readv to use it, because WE PAY THREE PER-CENT INTEREST ON ALL SAVINGS DEPOSITS, and COMPOUND THE INTEREST TWICE EACH YEAR. That is just as high a rate of interest as can be paid consistently with the SAFETY of deposits in the judgment of this country’s best and piost careful bankers. And it v(ill be BETTER for you to rest comfortably, and have your DEPOSITS become a SAFE 3 per cent investment, than to be uneasy about it as you would be, if you put it in hanks that seek de­ posits at higher rates. . ' When you deposit your money in this bank, you can know that it is loaned on choice Barry Co. real estate and to Barry Co. people whom you know. That is worth a good deal to you because you KNOW your money is SAFE; know it is not loaned out to speculators or to institutions of doubtful credit. It has always been the policy of this bank to loan its funds to home people whom, and whose credit, we know. So you may know at all. times the money you entrust to our care is SAFE.

PAGE ELEVEN Club Billiard Parlors Are Now Open For Your Inspection We have just opened the finest Billiard Parlors, in Barry County and second to none in Michigan in a city the size of Hastings. As far as equipment goes there is NO BETTER made, and we give our assurance that everything will be conducted in a thoroughly first class manner. Our idea in opening this Parlor and furnishing it as we have, is to provide the people of this city and county with all of the equipment of a Club Room, limiting the number only to those who come here and conduct themselves in a gentlemanly, orderly manner. No liquor, gambling, or boisterous conduct will be allowed about the premises. We have not only the best equipment that money can buy, but we have gone to a large expense in FINISHING and FURNISHING our Parlors in a most _attractive manner, with a beautiful pressed steel ceiling overhead, and heavy linoleum on the floor. The side walls are decorated with a heavy embossed tile paper below the railing, and with Tiffany paper above. The Parlors will be provided with ample toilet accommodations, and everything will be done to make it pleasant for patrons. No expense has been spared to make it a clean, healthy “recreation home.” We feel exceedingly proud of our efforts, and know that you will thoroughly agree with us that we have given Hastings the FINEST Billiard Parlors in any city of its size in Michigan. ffliaWIIIHBIIIItfflBMifflWiB! I . OU g A PUBLIC CLUB ROOM ' Brunswick-Balke Tables I ’ Exclusively Our equipment consists of Brunswick-Balke Tables of the VERY LATEST DESIGN1 Every table that we will have will be of STANDARD SIZE, and will be so set that they will insure the highest possible results, and so aranged as to practically eliminate interference from players at other tables. 1 S B E WILLIE HOPPE STYLE CUES Our cues range in weight from 14 to 24 ounces. They, like the billiard tabjes, are the best that money can byy. We can guarantee that they will be in first class condition. 1 1 ’ I We have installed the very latest system of lighting for Billiard parlors that is on the market. Every table will be flooded with light and electric fans will be installed between th'e tables, This with the favorable location of the rooms for easy ventilation, will make it really perfect- in this respect. . g @ s j g LIGHTING AND VENTILATION ' ■ The Club Billiard Parlors are FOR THE PUBLIC. We want it thoroughly understood that YOU will always be WELCOME, the only requirement being that you conduct yourself as a gentle­ man should. /This will be an ideal place for you* to meet your friends and talk over business matters. POPULAR PRICES will be charged for the use of the tables. UP-TO-DATE CIGAR STAND An up-to-date Cigar stand will be a part of the equipment of our Billiard Parlors, in which we will keep all the leading brands of Cigars and Tobaccos. This feature will be appreciated by all patrons. ' . LARGE SEATING CAPACITY One of the reasons why we opened the Club Billiard Parlors was to provide more seating capacity. We did pot have ample room down stairs. On the south side of the Billiard Parlors will be a line of chairs for the special use of those using the tables. Along the north side of the room, and at both ends will be rows of chairs for .the special use of the public, who care to watch the games, meet their friends, or talk over business matters. AN INSIDE STAIRWAY The Club Billiard Parlors can only be reached by an INSIDE STAIRWAY leading from the Club Cigar Store. . There will be NO OU TSIDE ENTRANCE.

A. B. Hedrick, Prop. The American Fence will bear the most strenuous test and we invite you to make as careful a comparison with other fences as you wish to make. The real compari­ son of fences, however«US a comparison of weights, and the American is not afraid of such comparison, nor of any other. The question for you to consider in buying a fence is not that you are getting 161 feet in a rod, for you get that in any old* fence, but rather how many pounds of steel ar^ you getting in that rod of fence. 1 lie buying of fence is an INVESTMENT. You should look into it as carefully as if you were buying a piece of land. For your own protection you should INSIST that the DEALER show ypu exact ly-rwha t he is furnishing. The AMERICAN FENCE is made of hard qpringy wire, and no better material can be put into any wire fence. • Call and see us before buying any wire fencing.

When one gets into trouble of this sort it’s a fine thing to know how to get out of it. The “food route" is the common sense way back to health and comfort. Grape-Nuts FOOD is made of wheat and barley, so perfectly cooked that it is partially pre-digested and contains the vita! tissue-making ele­ ments required for the daily rebuilding of body and brain. Grape-Nuts food is delicious and economical: and, for breakfast regularly, helps mightily to put one in mental and physical condition for a good day's work.

The old style, or round axle, is used on all wagons, but the "Birdaell" while the NEW STYLE is used only on the “Bifdsell.” Now note the difference. The■ "BirdseU" skein is made larger at this point in order to take this larger axle. Is it any wonder then, that the BIRDSELL MANUFACTURING COMPANY are willing to make the claim shat the “BirdseU” 3^ by to wagon will carry a load of 1,000 pounds more than any wagon using the old style or round axle. Notice the dotted line at the lower corners of the new style axle and see how much of this axle would have to be cut away in order to make it fit the old stylt skein. Now suppose you put on a load of 4.035 pounds on a wagon using the old style round axle and should break your wagon down at thia point. The manufacturer would not be obliged to give you a new axle because your load exceeded the warantee.by 35 pounds. And now suppose you drive up to the broken down wagon with a 3J/4 by to "Bird­ sall” vrfagon using the new style square shoulder axle,’ unload the 4,035 pounds off the broken wagon onto the "BirdseU.” Now load on 975 POUNDS more. Start along .and if you should break the “BirdseU” down with this added load, the manufacturer wiU be obUged to fyrnish you with a new axle as your load will not exceed the warrantee, which is 5,000 pounds or 1,000 pounds more than the round axle wagon ia warranted to carry. Look at this axle again and don’t be fooled by cheap talk when you buy a wagon. At least, see the '’Birdseli" wagon before you buy. — IBB Old Style and Th« Naw stvla JESSE TOWNSEND Hutinn Michigan �THE HASTINGS BANNER RMUMV 25, 1915—20 P*G£S PART THtttE—PAGES 17 TO 20 Big Bargain Day Saturday, March 6th Purity Flour==“The Flour Thats all Pure Flour” In Any Quantity at Wholesale Price Owing to the unsettled price of Wheat and Flour, we cannot tell you now what that price will be, but we will sell any quantity of “PURITY” at the wholesale price of flour that day These Special Prices are only good at the mill. . ■ Special Exchange Offer Bargain Day Our custom is 40 pounds of “PURITY” for every bushel of wheat, but on this special “Bargain Day” we are going give 42 LBS.

A CRUDE WAY OF DOING Is this your way of saving your money—the SAFE place where you keep your savings. It is hard to believe that in this day pf enlightenment people try to improvise some SAFE place to keep money without pitting it in the bank of their town. There are instances where people are still hiding money under the corner of the carpet, burying it in the cellar, hiding it in an old sock in some secluded part of the house. Hundreds of instances of this sort are on record and in many cases the money is lost in some unexpected way. Your Money Is Safe In The Hastings National Bank And Earns You Good Interest No one in Barry county can have any excuse for sewing their money in their clothing.and[having it lost—or lost through any other barbarian method of secreting their savings, for the HASTINGS NATIONAL BANK affords a sane and lucrative place for. depositing savings. It is under the su­ pervision of the National Banking Department, is’ a member of the Federal Reserve System and pays its depositors all the interest that a conservative, safely managed bank can pay. ’ ■*" JUST THINK, what an advantage it is to have your savings deposited in tills safe bank, where they CANNOT BE LOST and where you are getting 3 per cent interest compounded pemi-annusjly.

Her descriptions of Chinese horns life ami of'the won­ derful transforming power nf Christinnity as evidence'! in China were very interesting. In speaking at the Methodist Sun­ day school she said she had been asked won after she arrived in America who: she thought of thr Failed States, and hnd then answered that she did *ni>t frel qualified to comment on that subjrrt. Now that she had been here nearly four year* she thought it would be proper to speak of thr three things that impressed hrr most iu this coun­ try, which were: (1) Thr happy faces ul the children,! i!> The contented look on the fare# of the old people she met.

When you buy flour for your family you want the BEST that your money can buy, and you are entitled to it. No other article of food in the home is AS IMPORTANT as flour be­ cause it is the very BASIS of all living. Poor flour is a poor investment, because you can t make good, light, wholesome bread out of it—and bread is the staff of life. The grain that is used in drench’s White White Lily Flour is thoroughly cleaned and polished, and you would be surprised at the amount of dirt, dust and ’’fuzz" that comes from wheat that LOOKS CLEAN. In mills that are not as particular as we are, and do not have the equipment for cleaning, all of that dirt goes into the flour and YOU HAVE TO BUY IT at so much per pound. In French’s White Lily you -get nothing but PURE FLOUR. Some of the reasons why French’s White Lily Flour is always the same, are I st—rWe run this mill night and day, and it is a well known fact that a good even grade of flour cannot be made in any mill that remains idle 10 or 15 hours each day. The stopping and starting AFFECTS the QUALITY. L'd. afailh’*, north of Rtohylllr. nd Mr*.

Cl Muskugun who hi! been vil niton Mn. McLaughlin of — Mra. Carnahan, will vUlLMx^ FRENCH’S WHITE LILY FLOUR French’s White Lily Flour is ALWAYS de­ pendable, because it is ALWAYS' THE SAME. The sack you buy today is just like the sack you bought last week, or last month. That’s because the contents of every sack are made in IDENTICALLY the same way as the contents of every other sack. Hastings, Midi. 2nd—We put our grain through I 7 sets of rolls. ‘The ordinary mill has only 6 or 8 sets. That’s why French’s White Lily Flour is of such even granulation that the water and yeast work through it perfectly. . French’s White Lily Flour has “grown up" with Barry County. For 40 YEARS it has been a household word in hundreds of homes in this county. If you want to KNOW how good it is, just make up a batch of dough from French’s White Lily Flour and a batch from, any other flour you wish. Put them in the oven side by side and bake. If you’ll try this experiment you’ll think more of French’s White Lily than ever. Your Grocer or Elevator Man has French’s White Lily. Why not order a sack, next time?

If you are it need scarcely be explained that success is not an accident, not a case of just happening so. It is in practically every case a matter of de­ liberate effort. The young man who expects to succeed must be ready when his day of oppqrtunity shall come, to take advantage of it And in practical­ ly every case to do this will require more or less ready money. Systematic Saving This bank is here to assist every young man to be ready for his day of op­ portunity. We give to Hipi the privilege of our savings department, not only to care for the money he saves,, but to set that money working for him.

Because our make has reached such a point that tbe cost of manufacture ia lower than It ever was. and could we have cream enough to xuu tip. U» tho full capacity of our plant wo could AND WOULD pay you at least two cents more per pound than we now can. It la to your interest to speak a good word for ns and to send us all tbe cream jrou can. We will try in the future as tn the past to keep our biulnem relations with our patrons up to * standard, so you will not be ashamed to tell your neighbor that you are a patron of ths Crystal Croamsry Company, of Hastings AND THAT THEY ARE ON THE SQUARE.

Was started in life on the best that Barry county, or any other county in the state, could produce, nature's own product, so am neither Holstein nor Jersey ; later got my education at a district school, and ate leeks and bread and butter for dinner. I knew it wasn’t nice,' but there was a lot o^-fun in it after all. Give,twenty-five boys and girls a dinner of leeks and bread and butter, then call them into the school room at one o’clock and take my word for it, the school ma’am wouldn’t need any lavender cor­ dial on her handkerchief or hair for the balance of that day sure, and now for the past twenty-five years I have been drinking the cup of the wrath of the trusts, and of their hired servants, and yet here 1 am hale and hearty at sixty-seven and ready for another drink. “A great many good men have been sold, but no honest man was ever bought.” I have been called by the trust, the meanest man in Bar­ ry county, but I have never stolen a Binder or Mower, a Plow or a Harrow, and 1 have never put up or advanced the price on any line of goods, without good and sufficient reason, or until the manufactur­ er had first advanced the price on me. Now as three score and ten years is the alloted time given, I cannot expect to be in the GAME much longer, but while 1 do remain, you can buy at independent • prices. No saying was ever more true, than that of Lincoln, when ''Ke said: ’’You may fool all of the people some of the time, and sfinie of the people all of the time, but you can’t fool all of the people all of the tirtie.” And a great many are not so easily fooled as, they used to be.. It takes more than the trusts, or P. T. Barnum’s ele­ phant plowing gardens, to fool all the people, all the time. So look at this old and new style of axle. The new style is used only on the “Birdsell.” The old style is used on all other makes of wagons, Ask yourself which of these axles is the | stronger, ot will carry the largest load. Don,t ] ask me, don’t ask the other fellow, and don’t get fooled. SeA the “Birdsell” before you srnx buy a wagon.

The i’erc Marquette is being operated at a Jo*s fur one reason—because the state law has fixed its passenger rates al an amount less' than the ct»st of operation. The road is now in our hands as Receivers appointed by the United StajZs Court. We have cut ddwn expenses toi limit of safety/but economies, helpful as they are, will not save the situation. It has been necessary to borrow money "to op­ erate the road, even without paying interest-off bonds; The Court, without afysuming to ineke a recommendation, but fol­ lowing t|ic suggestion of the interstate Commerce Commis­ sion, has directed us to lay-tlic matter before the Legislature for such relief as it-may find to be merited, and wc have done Why You Should Help Save This Railroad— You need its freight service in your business. You require its' passenger service.when you travel. You know that this railroad is necessary to the pros­ .. perity of this community. / You know that this railroad is one of the greatest assets of the state. You know that the Pere Marquette is an important factor in your life, directly or indirectly, every day in t>c year. It serves this county, this town—it serves you. It cannot longer continue to do business at a loss and furnish the service you need and require. It has reached a crisis in its affairs. Foreclosure and dismemberment are staring the road in the face. On The Average, We Lose— A quarter of a cent every mile we carry a passenger. Ten cents on every passenger we carry. Twenty-two cents every mile a passenger train runs. This docs not mean that wc do not want your patronage. Wc <I(A wcjipprcciatc it. Our loss is greater if you do not give it to ns, because wc have to, run the trains anyway. , The Interstate Commerce Commission decided after an investigation of these conditions that a%e is a' fair rate, and therefore fixed it on.interstate business. This docs not help us greatly ’tees'-v.c’havctbut little passenger service outside Michi'-m. The P< re Marquette is a local railroad: ■ The most of its passenger business is Iqcal. Isn’t it worth as much to cany you ina.de tiic state as it L to points outside, qr from poi:,;,- outside .to.'points wilbiq? Yea, and in softie cases more, when you considcK the sparsely settled sections served by tho-.l'cre Marquette. HOW YOU CAN HELP ^Take thia matter up right away with your Legislator., Sec him personally, if |>ossihlc; if not. write him at once. He is entitled to your views and it is necessary to get action’at this session. The matter has been -presented to the Legisla­ ture and we arc now laying the conditions before you with a view of getting your assistance. The railroad is as much en­ titled to living rates as an individual is to living wages. Urge your Legislator to act favorably at this session, and Hilp Us Preserve the System Intact to Michigan g ' . * PAl-'L 11. KING, DUDLEY E. WATERS. -' * Receiver*. �THE HASTINGS BANNER.

This method is so much quicker, cleaner, more efficient and sanitary than the old broomand-duster or carpet sweeper method, that it is merely a question of time until you change. The Hastings Electric Cleaner is as simple to operate as an electric light (merely pressing a switch button, lo­ cated, conveniently on the handle, turning on or off the current) ; is handsome in appearance, made of polished aluminum, built low and of proper shape to get into cor­ ners and under beds and bureaus, light in weight (9 lbs.) and equipped with aluminum rolls, rubber covered, which makes it very easy to handle. The cost of operation is so small as to be merely nominal and the only attention re­ quired is a few drops of oil occasionally. WE ARE MAKING YOU A PARTICULARLY AT­ TRACTIVE OFFER THIS WEEK.

Is this your way of saving your money—the SAFE place where you keep your savings. It is hard to believe that in this day of enlightenment people try to improvise some SAFE place to keep money without putting it in the bank of their town. There are .instances where people are still hiding money under the corner of the carpet, burying it in the cellar, hiding it in an old sock-in some secluded part of the house. Hundreds of instances of this sort are on record and in many cases the money is lost in some unexpected way. , * Your Money Is Safe In The Hastings x National Bank And Earns You Goodjlnterest Kodak lighting Thnrnupplo G RcpatVof Doud SchooL No one in Barry county can have any excusq for sewing their money in their clothing and having it lost—or lost through any other barbarian method of secreting their savings, for the HASTINGS NATIONAL BANK affords a sane and lucrative place for depositing savings. It is under the su­ pervision of the National Banking Department, is a member of the Federal Reserve System ana pays its depositors all the interest that a conservative, safely managed-bank can pay.

(loud bright !> Long System” In Milling Helps Make I । 11 ,i Il ■ The very first time that the housewife uses French’s White Lily Flour she will find that it is not like other flours. She -will find that it is BETTER. She will find that she can always “depend upon it;’’ that her bread, cakes and pastries will ALWAYS be the same. One of the chief reasons for this is because we use the "long system" in milling. It takes us a LONGER TIME to make French’s White Lily Flour, because we put our grain through more processes. By our "lone system" of milling there is a gradual reduction in the par­ ticles of flour, until at last they are all reduced to a smooth "even granulatioq.” With its “even granulation," French’s White Lily Flour absorbs the yeast and moisture more evenly. It works its way all through the flour. When you put the loaves in the oven to bake, every part is just the same as every oth­ er part. The heat, likewise affects every part of the loaf alike. The result is that you AL­ WAYS have a perfect loaf of tender, white Middleville bread that it is a delight to eat. Iri no other way can the housewife provide such healthful wholesome food for such SMALL COST. And remember that French’s White Lily does­ n’t cost you any more than ordinary flpur— and it is far better. B-D We operate our mill night and day. Taxes, rent, interest, insurance, heat and numberless other general expenses are no greater for 24 hours than they would be for 8 hours. The concern that has the orders can double or treb­ le the volume of business by running 24 hours that it could do in 8 hours, and at very small additional expense. This, at least, will cut down the general expense by one-half and at the same time turn out a better quality of goods, because .when the machinery’is kept in motion it will do a better and more even qual­ ity of work by running along at a steady uni­ form speed. It doesn’t cost you any more, because of the manufacturing economies we have in the plant by reason of our running night and day, with the best and latest models of labor saving ma­ chinery that money can buy, and with the knacks that over 40 years* experience in mak­ ing nothing but French’s White Lily Flour have taught. You can pay more money ft>r flour, but you won’t get anything as good as .French’s White Lily. Possibly you can buy flour for less money, but you’ll find it far more expensive in the end. Why? Because you'll either throw a lot of it away or punish your stomach, with a lot of poor, soggy, indigestible bread. Your experience with flour made in the ordinary mills will confirm that statement. If French’s White Lily Flour wasn’t better than the others there wouldn’t be so many people want it. They wouldn’t keep this big mill running day and night, year in and year out. Why don't you try a sack of this flour, if you are not using it now? Michigan l| 11 I I Howhold Goods For Balo at 300 Mich­ igan Ave., -North.

Anticipate your wants for months to come.. One dollar will do the work of two or three and in some instances will buy $5.00 worth of goods. This Fire, Stttoke and Water Sale will be the broadest, great­ est sacrifice ever held in Central Michigan. Nothing like it may occur again. First choice is worth something—so come early. No Goods Charged—fto Goods Exchanged We will deliver only the larger packages in town and to the rail­ road stations. No goods sold until MONDAY MORNING MARCH 15th at 9:00 A. M. Store opens every morning at 9:00a. m. Every dollars worth of goods must be closed out in record short time. Nothing will be reserved or moved to our big store. Wc are confronted with a situation that compels the im­ mediate disposal of this big stock. The store will have to be entirely remodelled and redecorated and must be vacated in a limited time. It is but fair to state that we have bought this stock at practically our own prices, which en­ ables us to offer you these seemingly impossible sacrifice prices. * The insurance companies havp shouldered most of the burden of this great loss, you will derive (he benefit. So don’t wait for a better opportunity. Everything -goes-on sale Monday morning at 9:00 a. m., March 15th, at prices you have never known before. Prices that would be impossible under any other condition. Cost is not considered. It is simply a question of how quick we cap sell every dollar’s worth right here, (howgdods will be mov­ ed to our other store) and we’ll make the prices to do it in record time. ,, MMUMMMHBI A Stupendous Sacrifice on All Coats, Suits, Skirts, Dresses, Furs and Ready-To-Wear .

Wants to submit to wagon buyers the following in buying a wag­ on. The first thing to consider is wearing qualities and strength. These are two of the most important questions to decide. First, con­ sider the wearing out of the boxing and skein. What do all team­ sters tack a boot leg over the back end of the hub for? Why, to keep the sand out of the hub boxing. With a ’‘BirdseH’’ there is no use of the boot leg, as there is a sand excluding collar on the skein that does it. The “BirdseH” has the only sand excluding skein wor­ thy of the name. Second, then for strength of axle. You will only need to look at, and compare these two axles. » The old style and the new style.

Flour is the most important article of food that is used in the home. It makes a lot of difference to YOU what kind you buy. You don't have to pay any more for French's White Lily Flour than you do for any ordinary flour. The contents of EVERY SACK of French’s White Lily is JUST THE SAME, and every sack is GUARANTEED to you.. You run NO CHANCES. If you have been trying other brands of flour you have found that one sack may be good and the next sack bad. That is because it is NOT MADE RIGHT. Have you ever stopped to think that such flour is by far the MOST EXPENSIVE that YOU CAN BUY? When you buy that kind of flour, YOU LOSE not only the COST of the flour, and other materials, that go into the baking, but the housewife loses a lot of TIME and HARD WORK besides. And there is nothing more discouraging, and disheartening, to the housewife than to have her baking spoiled. French's White Lily Flour is made after a plan that OVER 41 YEARS of practical experience has proven Jjp us to be THE BEST. Making French's’White Lily Flour is our "life’s work." Our time, thought and study has been given to it. And back of all dur* experience, and knowledge gained, is the MOST COMPLETE and expensive new equipment of machinery that money can buy. And still back of all that is our own water-power, which enables us to run night and day. and furnishes, qs with the steadiest and most even power known—an important factor in making the best flour. French’s White Lily Flour doesn’t just "happen" to be good. It is MADE right. That's the reason that every sack you buy is just like the last sack you have bought. Wo are extremely particular in the selection of the grain we use. We (/LEAN our grain much more THOROUGHLY than other mills do. We remove all the dirt anc> "fuzz” from the wheat. In ordinary mills much of this would go into the flour. , , Mr*. Marie DePlanta returned Tuea■lav from Chicago where aha ha* bc«u Sending the winter with her daughter, ra. Nina Palmer.

Then the grain starts op its long journey through 17 sets of rolls. Each set of rolls does its part in extracting all the "flour goodness’ from the grain until finally it comes out, reduced jo a smooth, even granulation. This is NOT POSSIBLE in the ordinary mill that only runs a few sets of rolls and runs only a few hours each day. Why not settle the flour problem at once. Why not. just TRY a sack of French’s White Lily? You’ll find it will cut down your living expenses, be­ cause you will use every particle of it. There will be no spoiled bakings, and no flour thrown away, or wasted. Here’s\an experiment we would like to have you make:—Buy a sack of French's White Lily, and a sack of any other kind of flour claimed to be “just as good.” Make a loaf or two of bread from each kind of flour. Put' the loaves from each kind in the oven at the same time, and bake them right "side by side." You can soon tell, and will KNOW which kind produces the BEST LOAF.

I always set these plows side by side on the floor and gave the. farmer his choice of them for $13.00. Two years ago these plows were taken from me and put into another' store, and the price at once advanced one dollar—or to $ 14.00. This being about 8 per cent over any price I had ever asked for them. And when I called the farmers attention to the raise in price, they are told that the price had not been raised, but that they were sel­ ling a plow with a shin piece up the front of mouldboard, which made it ^ost more, and for this reason they have to have the higher price. This is a lie. Now the facts are these, that the No. 31 Syra­ cuse plow, and this plow, has no shin piece, costs more money at wholesale than the No. 61’ Syracuse plow, the plow that has a shin piece, and I challenge any man who is selling these plows, to set a date, and nanje a place (outside*their place of business) where they will meet me and prove me a liar), which if they do, I will step down and out, and say nothing more about "The man that lost the plow.” But if they don’t 1 call the attention of every man in Barry County to note the lie and the deception being practised upon them in this particular plow deal.

HELPFUL WAYS FOUND TO BOOST FARM INDUSTRY Js your farm Running £owiti Many years ago the forms “down east” were very productive and considered the most valuable farm lands in the new world. A-sys­ tem! of vigorous farming was kept up for years until gradually the vitality of the soil became depleted and the productiveness of these valuable lands became less and less, until many hundreds of acres of once rich fa'rm lands werejabandoned because they would not pro­ duce enough to pay for working them. The reason for all this was because everything o taken off the land and nothing put back. These lands ’being ‘ reclaimed again now at a great cost and a process of systematico ling to clover and grass is being carried out in addition to using other fertilizers.

Your husband will brag about your good baking long after he has forgotten how you look. Possibly he will be a little backward about saying much to you about it, but at the same time he’ll strut around among his fellow workers and spout about your cooking ability like a platform orator. • One of the greatest virtues in a wife is to be a good cook, just as one of the greatest virtues in a husband is to be a good provided. Not a bit romantic, but its the secret of success in marriage. . The year of 1915 is still young. Right NOW is the time for you to decide that you will give French’s White Lily Flour a, good fair trial. There are ^several reasons why French’s White Lily Flour excels all others, but there is one in particular to which we wish to call your attention. That is in the GRINDING. By our process the wheat is NOT MASHED by clumsy worn out machines, but is sharply cut on the very1 latest improved iron rolls making every particle of flour the same shape and size. This is called ‘‘e'ven granulation^’ of-flour, and it stands to reason that such a product will absorb yeast/and water more evenly and make a more evenly-grained, and thoroughly wholesome loaf. ’ , The wheat that goes into French’s White Lily Flour is CLEANED BETTER, and ROLLED FINER and MORE EVENLY because we put it through 17 SETS OF ROLLS, whereas the ordinary flour is only put through 6 or <8 sets of rolls.

Orvel Tompkins, Prop. ——■ HENRY FLANNERY, Auctioneer. C. E. NICKERSON, Clerk, �The life insurance companies of this country ad­ vertise that only 5 per cent of those who die leave an estate—that means that only one man in twenty provides for the future by saving a part of what-he earns. 95 per cent of the peoph “ ’ ’ This is a time when people should lay aside false pride. They should feel no shame in cooking their own dinners, shining their own shoes, shovel­ ing their own snow and mowing their own lawns. During years of prosperity it has become all too easy to live fast and spend easy. . Costly habits of living have come into existence even among those who depend only upon a moderate income. It is easy to let the nickles and dimes slip away—but they make the dollars—and a dollar saved adds to one’s independence and starts a fund for future needs. The habit of saving has been op the gain among people in moderate circumstances during the past few years until now, about half of those who leave any estate at death are among those who have had to work for a living. . With the great European naticms out of the mar- bastings national Bank Member Federal Reserve System ket as money lenders, there is great need in Ameri-, ca for the cultivation of habits of saving. We must accumulate capital to finance, not only the growing demands of our own industries, but also those por­ tions of the world which are at peaceXJlf we as Americans respond to this new duty there will be no lack of capital to care for almost any demand, for American people CAN save if they WILL. They are the best paid people in the world. Surely you are anxious to lay by something for future years—you WANT to be THE ONE MAN in the twenty. If you haven’t that AMBITION something is’wrong with you. . Hie man who saves is .the man who is always ready to advance. Financial assistance is extended only to the man whose steady deposits and thrifty habits show his ability and determination to help himself.

It is good discipline—it builds character, because no one can save except they practice self-denial. Then, too, it is planning for the future—and every individual should plan for the future. Nowhere are we taught that we should be careless about the future, nor is there any excuse for those who fail to provide for conditions whieh may arise. A little thoughtful consideration of the future and what it will mean without ready money, and what it may mean with MONEY IN THE BANK will convince anyone of the wisdom of acquiring the saving habit, and of ac­ cumulating some money for the future. Wouldn't you like to own your own home? What a comfort there is in owning the place you live in—just knowing it’s yours! The first thing that confronts one when they first think of buying a home is how to pay for it.. ^The first thing the dealer who has homes to sell asks yon is, "How much can you pay down?” Here's where the “rub" comes. Many a man would buy a home if he had the money—there's just one way to get it and that is save. Here is where we help you! Make just a small deposit to start with and begin today to form the saving habit and soon you will have money enough sayed in our bank to make a good payment on a home. It is spring time now—and no1 better time ever was than now. We want you to dome and see us and. let us help you save. We will give you our best advice.

That's only a part of i what we can do. We are in close touch withall the financial centers of the country, and whatever we can do to serve you by putting you in touch with any financial matter in which you are interested, is at your disposal. • tohat Vhis £ank toill do for you This bank is here to serve you in helping you not only get the saving habit; not merely to aid you in accumulat­ ing something for the rainy day, or for your time of op­ portunity, but is here to make your savings a profitable in­ vestment for you. When a Xian thinks of a safe investment, he generally thinks of a government bond. Nothing is supposed to be safer. But a government bond v^ill give you but two per cent interest on your investment. Your savings deposited in this bank are just as safe as a government bond, for* they are backed by the $700,000 resources of this bank; backed by all the safeguards of the Michigan Banking law, which is the model banking law for the country.

The BANNER hope, that merited attenttun inky lie given to securing :i proper lighting system for our business at reels. A progressive city like Hastiih:. should have lioulevard lights along State. Jefferson and. Michigan Ave., that issurh portions of those streets a. are included in the buainom - geetion. The lighting of that district by boule­ vard lamp* would be n good advertise­ ment fur Hastings. Other place* even smaller have them, and wr believe Havftugs should get in line. The present council, in view of the near approach nf election, will probably nr>l desire tn act in this matter. But we hope the near council may .take up the subject early enough »» that when the long evening shall eome again, Hastings business street, will be well liglit.-d, We are not uulliorixed to speak for the Thornapple <’•>. nor have we ev.-r mentioned the subject to any inemlier of that company, but it ia fair to presume they would meet the city half nay on a proposition of that kind.

Middleville Fibre Gearless Transmission METZ cars are equipped with fibre grip gearless trans­ mission, a silent chain of liberal proportions transmitting the power from the jack shaft to the rear wheels. In re­ cent engineering practice the silent chain has come largely into use, where efficiency, durability and smoothness in operation were demanded. The tendency in the latest types of motor cars, both in this country and in Europe, is to use the silent chain for lighting and starting systems. . The flexibility of the gearless transmission can per­ haps be more readily comprehended when we state that the variable positions of the fibre ring with the driving plate, permits seven forward and one reverse speed. The power of the motor is transmitted to suit the varying road conditions from a level boulevard, where very high gear contributes to the smoothness of running to the low gear, which transforms speed into pulling qualities for steep hills with five intermediate speed ratios, to suit every con­ dition of road encountered. , Card of Thanks—v.’c d.-sir.- to Jhank' <>ur friestls and ncighlntrs, and the W.

A systern of vigorous farming was kept up for years until gradually the vitality of the soil became depleted and the productiveness of these valuable lands became less and less, until many hundreds of acres of once rich farm lands were abandoned because they would not pro­ duce enough to pay for working them. The reason for all this was because everything was taken off the . land and nothing put back. These lands are being reclaimed again now at a great cost and a prpeess of systematic seeding to clover and grassris being carried out in addition to using other fertilizers. Do not run your land down! If you want to keep it up to the standard productiveness *d£Jht*iLAa«to».f cUM Buy Our Cjrass and Clover Seeds resiiunsibilitr to do. good and to re­ frain from doing evil.

There isn’t anything that will be of greater value to your soil, and keep it from running down, than seeding systematically, field by field, your entire farm at • different times. Had the farmers of the Eastern States followed that custom with other up-to-date farm methods, the farms of the . east would be just as good today as they ever were. We take a great deal of pride in the seeds we sell to you. We know they are right. We make a study of buying seeds and have had experience. We get the best seeds that can be produced. Seeds that fbst as high as 99.50 per cent pure, and a germination of 94 per cent. We sell you seeds upon our reputation. Buy now. We have plenty on hand.

I'U.f MX JAMIESON’S Sweetheart Bread I I wish to call your attention to our hew label which will be introduced in our EASTER WRAPPER this week. S You may think it strange for us to introduce a new bread. So it is—thinking of the rousing success we have had with our famous brands, namely— J I ■■ : Hastings i Potato Bread and Malted Kream Bread which have afforded us great pleasure to sell to the people. * With our progressive spirit we have perfected our formula to the ex­ tent of the present label, which is hardly equal to the improvement. There­ fore we have selected the word SWEETHEART, which we considered nearest expressing the superior quality of this new bread. Here’s hoping our Sweetheart Bread will gain a spot in your heart, as it has in ours. We have the confidence to believe that in introducing this new bread to you that it will always provc: a sweetheart in your home, on your table three times a day, to the little ones of the family for a lunch. ’Tis a healthful product. It is one of the cleanest breads ever made. Best of all, it is a Hastings product. It has the taste—the quality, through and through. Try a loaf and be convinced that our statement in this adv. is all we claim. We stand by our Sweetheart and our Sweetheart stands by us.” Star Bakery and Restaurant W. R. JAMIESON, Prop.

It is a wonder what an influence baking has upon the peace and comfort of the average home. Let the housewife do a lot of “exper­ imenting” in the baking line and have her husband sit down to poor bread about seven or eight times out of ten and how soon the domestic relations become strained. "Feed the brute,” the admonition so of­ ten given to the young woman who is about to enter the realms of mat­ rimony, is not so far wrong. There is not any thing more suVe to up­ set one’s feelings and disposition and do so more quickly than poor food, and as bread is the staff of life, the importance of good bread is evident. . Schools in cooking and domestic science are maintained at consid­ erable expense throughout the whole country, because it is known "scientifically that rpuch of the happiness and success of life is de­ pendent upon the quality of what we eat. Most of these schools referred to are good ones, but even that fact is of little avail in the actual and practical side of life unless good materials can be used by those who are qualified to cook the foods we eat. So it don t really make any difference how good a baker the housewife is, if she can’t have good materials to use she can’t produce good baking. ■ . ' . ....................... . .... . Poor bread will spoil any good meal—-grieve the housewife—irri­ tate the man of the house—throw a "wet blanket” on the'rest of the day. If you want a cheerful, pleasant home one of the first and sure things to do is to provide that home with good flour, so the wife can be sure of having good bread every meal. French’s White Lily Flour is made from an ideal process. Haitings, Mich. We are extremely particular in the selection of the grain we use. We CLEAN our grain much more THOROUGHLY than other mills do. We remove all the dirt and "fuzz" from the wheat. In ordinary mills much of this would go into the flour. Phen the grain starts on its long journey through I 7 sets of rolls. Each set of rolls does its part in extracting all the "flour goodness" from the grain until finally it comes out, reduced to a smooth, even granulation. This is NOT POSSIBLE in the ordinary mill that only riins a few sets of rolls andvruns only a few hours each day. Why not settle the flour problem at once? Why not just TRY a sack of French’s White Lily? You’ll find it will cut down your liv­ ing expenses, because you will use every particle of it. There will be no spoiled bakings, and no flour thrown away, or wasted. .. i Middleville Roller Mills Middleville R. T. french, Proprietor W. E.. BRONSON Auto Livery Michigan i Stale SI.

If the soil isn’t plowed RIGHT, then the land can’t be prepared right. There’s, where-the Oliver and John Deere plow will soon pay for themselves on any farm. When you have one of these plows you KNOW that your plowing will be done RIGHT. There is no general purpose plow in the world that will compare with them. They are adapted to all kinds of soil, most economical when it comes to repairs, and you can “always bank on them.” We’ve sold hundreds and hundreds of these Plows to farmers in Barry County and they always give the best of satisfaction. We buy a CAi? LOAD of plows and repairs each year, and by buying in the large quantities we do, we are able to sell at the lowest possible price.

Just three years ago today the present firm took possession of the Crystal Creamery ..of Hastings. We looked the ground over, and discovered the motto we needed to work by was this: “Honest weights, Correct Tests, Top notch prices. Cash for every batch of cearm and A Square Deal to All?’ To say it worked is putting it very mildly. April fool week this year is double that of our first April fool week, just three years ago. 100 per cent gain, we never dreamed of the like, in fact it doesn’t look possible with five other Creameries in the County, but our books are here fpr the proof. We never can tell you how much we appreciate the confidence you have put in our business ability, coming here as we did perfect strangers to you all, and you may rest assured that confidence is price­ less to us. • ,w . Those of you who as yet have not favored us with a trial, come in and have a talk with us.

It was.used by the Greeks .and Persians 2,400 years ago and has been introduced from one country to another until it has reached thisUnited States and it is known now to be "The Mainstay of the Cattle Farmer" and is gro'wn extensively throughout United States and Canada. (food Quality Seed Needed To Successfully grow Alfalfa the best quality of seed is necessary and can only be had by buying the supply you need from a firm whose reputation for handling the best grades in every line is well established. It has been our policy since our first starting in business to pay the price necessary to secure the HIGHEST GRADE SEED. Our knowledge of good seed ana the firms from whom we buy are saf guards to quality. And we have Alfalfa Seed that tests almost 100 per cent pure. Every pound of seed we, sell has stood this test and— that is not all—it is backed by our own-personal guarantee. Value of growing Alfalfa Alfalfa is proven to be the most nutritious of feeds for dairy cows, beef cattle, sheep, hogs, horses, poultry and the blossoms aid the bees in making heavy yield of .rich, ex­ cellent honey. Alfalfa increases the yield of succeeding crops—it nearly doubles the yield of grain and increases the value of potatoes per acre $20, oats $20. It is one continual harvest without an annual plowing and seeding. <%e Place to Quy your Seed for "Alfalfa Seeding" is from Ifs. Remember Our Reputation Stands flack of Our Alfalfa deed.

Thd name "Oliver" is fixed in the minds of farmers and farmer's boys for fifty years of plow making. । The “Oliver’* is standard—beyond this none can go. The No. a6 Sulky is distinctly an Oliver creation. It is one of the younger, members of the greater Oliver family and to be one of the younger, is to be either an improvement over a plow now on the market or to fulfill a want heretofore-unanswered. This inimitable power or "horse" lift stands as one of its biggest improvements.. This lift is operated by a foot trip when riding, or by a hand latch when walking. The opera­ tor"* work is.diminished al least by one-half, for simply by pressing forward lightly on the foot trip the plow's action is easily controlled. The land lever, also., does not require the plowman to lean back in an uncomfortable and unsafe position. This sulky further differ*, from the average, in that the land wheel is equipped with a lifting device that permits of a great rgnge of'travel, which feature adds to its qualifications for finishing a field ------------ , the stumbling block for most sulkies. We can furnish you with any Oliver implement. DELTON, MICHIGAN.

French’s White Lily Is the Cheapest Flour The stoppage of the Importation of nitrates from Chili, My« n Swiss ini’, ihority. is not depriving Germany of a necesMry ingredient' at explosives .be­ cause of Prof. Ostwald's discovery of n profess f»r making iutric arid oat of oxidising ammonia, Since the war, the IjMipply. Our flouring plant is in constant operation both night and day. We could not afford to sell French’s White Lily Flour at the price we do if this were not so. I Taxes, rent, interest, insurance, heat and numberless other general expenses are no greater for 24 hours than they would be for 8 hours. The concern that has the orders can double or treble the volume of business by run­ ning 24 hours that, it could do in 8 hours, and at a very small additional expense. This at least, will cut. down the general expense by one-half and at the same time turn out a better quality of goods, because when the machinery is kept in motion it will do a better and more even quality of work by running along at a steady uniform speed. French’s White Lily Flour is made better than other flours for the reasons given above. It doesn't cost you any more, • because of the manufacturing economies we have in the plant by reason of our running night and day, with the best and latest models of labor saving ma­ chinery that money can buy, and with the knacks that over 41 years’ experience in mak­ ing nothing but French’s White Lily Flour have taught. You can pay more money for flour but you won’t get anything as good as French’s White Lily. Possibly you can buy flour for less money, but you’ll find it far more expensive in the end. Why? Because you'll eithe/throw a lot of it away or punish your stomach with a lot of poor, soggy, indigestible bread. Your experience with flour made in ordinary mills will confirmXhat statement. Why not settle, the flour problem at once. Why not just TRY a sack of French’s White Lily? You’ll find it will cut down your living expenses, because you will use every particle of it. There will be no spoiled bakings, and no flour thrown away, or wasted. If French’s White Lily Flour wasn’t better than the others there wouldn’t be so many people*want it. They wouldn’t keep this big mill running day and night, year in and year out. Why don’t ypu try a sack of flour, if you are not using it now? ■ rmiuiv .rid for ■.. ' i W. E,.

Protect Your Property From Tornadoes, Cyclones and Windstorms The time of year is approaching when Tornadoes, Cyclones and Wind­ storms will be prevalent. Hundreds and hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of property in Michigan will be destroyed by these whirling mon­ sters this year, just as there is every year.' Your home, your barn, your buildings may be included in the list of property destroyed, because there is no telling WHEN or WHERE these storms will strike. It your buildings are destroyed your loss will be TOTAL unless you carry insurance against tornadoes, cyclones and windstorms, because the ordinary fire insurance policy will not protect you against loss by windstorms of any kind. There is no locality or section of the state that is exempt from the visits of these awful destroyers. They are just as apt to sweep down into the val' leys,, as one did last year, when it thundered down into the valley of the Grand River and completely wiped out the little town of Petrieville, in Ea­ ton County, which nestled on its banks. The people of that little town thought that because they were located in a valley and had never been vis­ ited, by a Cyclone that they never would be harmed, and that if a cy­ clone should come it would "jump over them.” For that reason not a single person there carried a cent of insurance against Cyclones and Windstorms. But EVERY BUILDING in the little town was COMPLETELY WRECK­ ED. Cyclones absolutely know no law, and really seem to take special de­ light in violating all human probability. No locality is immune from their visits. YOU NEED INSURANCE against Cyclones and Windstorms. When you take out a Policy you want the BEST POLICY FOR YOUR MONEY. This Company was organzied 30 YEARS AGO. It is the LARGEST, STRONGEST and OLDEST Insurance Company of its kind in Michigan. It has OVER 60,000 MEMBERS and OVER $ 120,000,000.00 of insurance IN FORCE. During its 30 years of'existence it has made ONLY 6 AS­ SESSMENTS; The man who took out a $1,000 policy with us 30 YEARS AGO has only paid $ 10.00 to carry his policy for the full 30 YEARS—or only about 30 cents a year to carry a $ 1,000 policy. In all the annals of in­ surance you cannot find an equal’to this record, and EVERY LOSS has You cannot afford to be without Cyclone and Windstorm Insurance, any been FULLY and PROMPTLY .PAID. more than you can without "fir’d insurance, because experience teaches that If you are not now carrying Cyclone and Windstorm insurance, just as forests are cut down, cyclones and windstorms are becoming much drop us.a card and let us SHOW YOU how little it will COST YOU to be more frequent than, ever bpfore. And as the country becomes cleared1 up protected against Windstorms of every kind. Don’t delay. Why not DO IT and improved there is less resistance, and therefore the destruction wrought is all the more terrific. " . . NOW? ‘ .

Bell pht It is impossible to convey, in picture or words, more than a general idea of the beauty and ideal proportions of the new Overland Model 80-T Touring Cai\ Of the true stream-line type, the effect is of gracefully sweeping contour from the radiator to the full-curved back of the tonneau. The illustration shows clearly, though, the clean-cut appearance of the ar as a whole; the smooth, flush-sided body without angles or projections, the crowned, double-curved fenders, the clean running boards with concealed brackets—all serving to emphasize the long, low effect produced by the drop-frame and stream-line body. Surely there is satisfaction value in the appearance of this new Overland, well as in its mechanical stamina. Overland Before You Buy an Auto.

( Absolute Safety For Members Efficient Service To Members It is nothing mysterious, or uncertain, or any more difficult to'understand than a savings bank. In fact, it ia a mutual savings bank, and one of the surest and safest kind. But above and be/ond all this, it is a savings bank which pays to you, not sjmply- what you have deposited, but interest also, ator over 5 per cent, compounded semi-annually. There arc mqny different plans and varying systems. Tho best is good enough, and the best is the safest that human prudence can devise and the most liberal, consistent with such safety. Such in brief is The Mutual Home and Savings Association. Advantage in Savings State Supervision The saving of money is one of-the powerful elements that make, sta­ bility of, character. It/lakes will power tu *ave. and will power to keep from wasting one's savings. .Moreover, the, ownership of a home and the Raining of a competence for old age orA both of tbe greatest importance to every careful man. It Is also tnw that while some are dreaminn of accomplishing these two things by luck or chance, many, others are doing It by the old. rare find sure rule of spending each month less than they earn. One of the great purpose* of the Association is to help such people. Another large factor in the safety of the Awociatlon is the annual examination made by the State and the detailed report which must be filed annually. The State Examiner is always an experienced ipan work­ ing under the direction of the Secretary of State. He checks otter all the cash transactions of the officers and examinee all the securities to ascer­ tain If they agree with the amount of mortgage* set forth tn the As­ sociation's statement. In an association as large as ours, about a week js spent in doing this work. In addition to the work of the State Examiner, an expert auditor, familiar with banking and bookkeeping, goes over all the books of ac­ count twice each year. • of what you earn each week or month and when you have five, ten or more dollars send them to us and we will issue a book in which will be entered the amount you have deposited on your shares, each lime you send us money. And this saving will earn you 5 per cent in­ terest, which added to your deposits each week or month will finally make, you a sum of money that you can use to good purpose. We want you to take time arid pains to read what we have to say in this advertisement, and also our following, ad vs., about our safety, earning capacity, accommodation, etc. Safety of Deposits The people who save money are usually those who earn It by some form of hard work. With them, safety is the first consideration. If they are wise, they will not run tbe risk of losing their savings for thesake of an apparent high rale of interest For many reasons the Mutual Home & Savings Association in its methods of management, affords a very high degree of safety. More over, the local associations in the United States generally, doing business in their own localities, ihow in the last twenty-five years a much small cr ratio of failure* and losses than any other^institutions that handle savings. * ' Withdrawal Possible The membership in the Association is totally different from holding stock tn a stock company. In the latter the stockbolder'can get out only by iimling someone who will bny his stuck: in tbe former the Association will always buy back the shares at their full value. Getting one's money out or the Association, when there lx a good reason for so doing, la practically as easy aaSgetting it out of a bank. Tor the member's own good, withdrawals are discouraged. and he is urged to keep up hi* pay menu and finally make lux share* worth full value.

FOR SUNDAY APRIL 11. To successfully grow Alfalfa the best quality of seed is necessary and can only be had by buying the supply you need from a firm whose reputation for handling the best grades in every line is well established. It has’been our policy, since our first starting in business to pay the price necessary to secure the HIGHEST GRADE SEED. Our knowledge of ’ seed and the firms from whom we buy are sab guards to quality. And we have Alfalfa that tests almost 100 per cent pure. Every pound .of seed we sell has stood this test and— that is not all—it is backed by our own personal guarantee. Ajid “the Hon ut DIPHTHERIA TAKES TWO .rho never displeased Hi* Father.

The No. 26 Sulky is distinctly an Oliver creation It is one of the younger nfcmbcrs of the greater Oliver family and to be one of the younger, is to be either an improvement over, a plow now on the market or to fulfill a want heretofore Unanswered. This inimitable power or "horse" lift stands as one-of its biggest improvements. This lift is-operated by a foot trip when riding, or by a hand l^tch-when walking. The opera­ tor's work is diminished at least by one-half, for simply by'pressing forward lighdy on the foot trip the plow's action is easily controlled. The land lever, also, does not require the plowman to lean back in an uncomfortable and unsafe position. This sulky further differs from the average, in that the land wheel is equipped with a lifting device that permits of a great range of travel, which feature adds to its qualifications for finishing a field---------------- , the stumbling block for most sulkies. * We can furnish you with any Oliver implement. by land. tno*l dangerous tidal races and cur­ formid­ able of three In tho whirlpool between tiio Islands of Jura and Scarba. on the went roust of Scotland.

FRENCH’S WHITE LILY FLOUR Will Prove To You That There’s a Difference In the Quality of Flour ■IIIMHliigliiilWfMWMIlllMgflWIW You can read volumes about the "QUAL• ITY" in flour, but unless you try it out your­ self it won’t do you any good. It stands to reason that there will be just as much' differ­ ence in the QUALITY of flour as.there is in the quality of any other product of manufac­ ture. One man will take a certain amount of wool and other materials and make a splen­ did piece of cloth. Another man will take ex­ actly the same amount of the same materials, and make poor cloth. Why is it? It is simply in the difference in the METHODS,of man­ ufacture. Everyone -knows that flour is made from wheat. But no two millerS'make flour in iden, tically the same way. The result will be that no two flours will be the same, even though the same kind of wheat is used by each miller. French’s White Lily Flour is not made like other flour. That’s WHY it is different; why it is BE’ITER. There isn’t one single process in its manufacture that is exactly the same as you will find in any other mill, from the time the wheat enters the hopper, until it comes out all sacked and ready to ship. We clean our wheat more thoroughly than other rpills do, taking out all the dust and dirt by a special patented process. Then we put the wheat through two or three times as many sets of rolls as*you will find in the ordinary mill. We take more pains all the way through, and with our latest models of machinery, we get all the "flour goodness" out of the wheat. If making the best flour was just a process of “grinding wheat," then one mill could make just as good flour as another. But the very fact that flours differ in QUALITY is proof enough that making good flour means MORE than simply "grinding up wheat." For over 40 years we have done nothing but make French’s White Lily flour. We have kept our equipment right up to the very TOP NOTCH of "EFFICIENCY." We haven’t hesitated one moment at throwing out mach-f inery, and replacing it with the latest models, where we KNEW it would IMPROVE the QUALITY. The FACT that MORE French’s White Lily Flour is sold in Barry County than of ALL OTHER FLOURS COMBINED is the BEST confirmation of its QUALITY. There is no food product that imparts strength, vitality, and good "red blood,’’ like GOOD FLOUR which is the BASIS of all good living. And * when people find a flour, like French’s White Lily, is superior to any other it’s natural they should stick to it, as thousands of families in . Barry County do. We would rather have you CONVINCE YOURSELF that French’s White Lily Flour is the BEST. A trial order of ONE SACK will do it. Every Grocer and Elevator in Barry County sells it. And just try this experiment: —Make a batch of dough from French’s White Lily, and a batch from any other flour that is claimed to be as good. Put them in the oven side by side and bake them at the satne time. Giye each one an equal show. That will • PROVE to you that there* IS a difference in the QUALITY of flour. It will PROVE that French’s White Lily is BELTER. Why not order a SACK and make the TRIAL? Why not do it TODAY ? Every sack is GUARAN­ TEED. Middleville Roller Mills Middleville T • R-. T.

Last Season 50,000 OVERLAND Cars were built and sold without satisfying the demand; this year 1 he Willys-Overland Co. will build 75,000. Only by this enormous production are we able to offer the exceptional motor car value which stamps the Overland as the pace­ maker of the automobile world. .... . \ . With each big increase of production there has been a corresponding advance in the value offered—each year the OVERLAND has set a new mark of solid automobile worth so far ahead of all competition, as to place it absolutely in a class by itself. And now in these new OVERLAND cars we of­ fer the greatest values of all. OVERLAND sales in Michigan have increased 107 per cent over last season: OVERL.AND agents in the same territory 74 per cent. The world-wide distribution of the OVERLAND has enabled The Willys-Overland Co. to establish and maintain an . international ser­ vice organization of a scope that is without parallel in the automobile industry.

We believe that the men who make it build into it their honesty. and faith in the future; we believe it repi^sents their' complete ideal of the highest standard yet attain­ ed in motor car design and con­ struction. We believe if you will study its specificatibns and consider the company’s financial standing, their facilities ' and their experi­ ence, you will agree with us.

PAQB TWEMTTOKE APRIL 15. 1915 KIBBY 4 PIEHCf TO HAtjDLE APPERSOHS Loca) Firm Appointed Official Distributor For This Territory. Means High Quality . Thp Studebaker is well built, with paiqs-taking attention to devils. *1 he design of the Studebaker motor can be compared in expellence only with one or two of the most famous foreign cars. ' It will thread in and out of traffic on high gear without laboring, and across country will take the hills without trouble or hesitation. Not the least satisfying feature of the Studebaker is its quiet and full response to the throttle. The long resilient springs, cushions any road mption and the deep upholstering adds full comfort to the admitted driving power of the car. The Studebaker Jiffy curtains can be put in place quickly FROM INSIDE THE CAR. The throttle and spark levers are where they belong, above the steering wheel. Three Things Are To Be Considered In the Purchase of a Motor Car: Efficiency—Durability—Cost , In the Studebaker are found the three requisites qecessary to make it the most Useful car manufactured. The STUDEBAJCER has the poise and balance m build—the long, spiooth. resilient spring—the low per cent of engine vibration—the deep upholstered cushion—the commodious room that brings to the fi3er aP delights that motoring affords. ' • These are but parts of its EFFICIENCY. The STUDEBAKER is a RELIABLE car. No task too hard for it; no road too steep. It is easy to operate, being responsive to the slightest touch—can start slowly and does not give sudden jerk that many lighter, cheaper cars give when starting. It carries its load gracefully and well. The STUDEBAKER has the required DURABILITY. It is made for use and for service. Ypu do hot have to “baby" a STUDEBAKER, just treat it fair. Its parts are all tested and perfected afid the Studebaker Company stands back of their car. ' > •ilii- WImHM The STUDEBAKER is not the highest priced dar, neither is it the lowest priced car on the market—BUT IT IS THE CHEAPEST CAR TO BUY. IT’S SATISFACTION THE MOTORIST WANTS THE STUDEBAKER GIVES SATISFACTION \ The STUDEBAKER combines quality, service and price in a way to give pleasure to every one of its users. We are anxious to give you a demonstration. • At the first glimpse you get of this Studebaker POUR you’ll begin to appreciate the evident QUALITY that Studebaker has built into its every detail, "—because it's a Studebaker." . v. For you'll find it one of tfie handsomest cars you ever saw. A car of distinctive design—refined and graceful in lines, with a rare elegance of finish that few cars at any price can match. ’1^1 A j H *. ' * And you'll notice, too, the roominess of this attractive car—and the handsome CROWN fenders and the wide doors with hidden hinges and catches, and deep, restful cushions finished with high-grade, buffed leather. And a hundred other little details that lepd beauty and grace to its looks. But it is only when you study the mechanical construction of the car itself that you realize how much you can buy in this car at $985—how needless it is to pay more for a FOUR cylinder car—and how unwise, too, it would be to pay less—QUALITY you^nust have and this car can fully satisfy you on every essential quality point, and at a price below one thousand dollars. The rear axle, for example—it’s not merely a "floating type." This FOUR has a FULL-fiSSting. rear axle. It’s the most expensive form of axle— butdt's the safest and the easiest to get at. ' You’ll find that instead of following the less expensive construction of ’ driving through springs, Studebaker uses TWO radius rods and a torque qrm of the drive. The springs are free to take up the jolts and jars—and nothing’ else. Youll find brakes of ample size to insure safety at all times on any roads. And a brake-equaliaer of the highest type. You’ll find a silent and flexible motor that gives roadmastering power, an4 yet it is marvelously economical. You’ll find Timken Bearings at every point of HARDEST wear— 13 of them in all. Is there another car at less than a thousand dollars that can give you as many? w, , ~ , . . You’ll find a Studebaker-developed Electric System that never fails. And so in event detail you’ll find'thc QUALITY that Studebaker must put in­ to the Studebaker FOUR "—because it’s a Studebaker.0 ’ ' . But sec this car—stand it side by side with other FOUfiS—no matter what the price—ami judgp its quality and what it gives, and then, when you know that you can get all this at $985—backed by the $45,000,000’guarantee of Studebaker—you’ll begin to realize that STUDEBAKER QUALITY is not merely an empty phrase. .

Will You Be One of Those to Share In the Ford Profits? Remember—the Ford Motor Company has promised to return front $40 to $60 to you if you buy a Ford before August I, 1915, providing 300,000 Fords are sold between August I, 1914 and August I, 1915. At the present rat*, of production . they will reach the 300,000 mark about July 1 st, which will assure you of your rebate. It is not a question of selling Ford cars, it is a question of getting them. Ohly early buyers will be sure of getting the Ford. There is only one explanation for this great demand—that is—The Ford is the greatest motor car value in the world today. It’s the car for the Farmer—the Business Man—the Profes­ sional Man—and the Mechanic—it’s the car for the Million and the Millionaire. * New 1915 Ford Models Bigger Values Than Ever The Ford _Motor Co. have made severa| changes in the new 1915 Ford models adding many refinements in de­ sign and equipment that increase the value about a hundred dollars; yet the same old prices remain. THE NEW 'IMPROVEMENTS ARE—New Curved cowl dash exactly like sedan and new curved rear fender, giving an appearance of longer wheel base and much more graceful design. New visible windshield built on body eliminating brakes. Large electric head lights and larger rear lights. Better quality upholstering ‘with deeper seats adding much comfort. Ventilators in hood—horn removed to underneath the hood. These features leave no­ thing to be desired, and the Ford will be sold as in the past, at the same prices, subject to profit sharing of $40 to $60 if 300.000 Fords are sold before August 1st, 191 5.

The Cadillac may be run for years and still be as good as new as far as service is concerned. THAT’S WHY TH! CADILLAC IS THE MOST ECONOMICAL CAR TO BUY. The Eight-Cylinder Cadillac does more of the things which a motorist wants his car to do. The Cadillac will out-wear and out-serve a half dozen cheap cars, and when you have the Cadillac you have all the luxury of motoring—with a cheap ear you often have trouble*, with the Cadillac seldom. If you exsed Io keep a «U tta tta aori five years or so, it will be cheaper for you to buy the Cadillac if yen MBpeet good service and a motor car you can use any time and at all times. There are hundreds of owners and users of the Cadillac in this section of the State, many of them you know, who will buy a Cadillac Eight when their present Cadillacs are worn out, if they ever do wear out. Of course the Cadillac Eight is the greatest motor car in the world. . The Eight-Cylinder Cadillac possesses an abundance of reserve power instantly available. The Eight-Cylinder Cadillac will run more slowly on direct drive in crowded streets and congested traffic and will do it without expert manipu­ lation. And it will “pick up” from slow running without hesitation or tremor. ,f The Eight-Cylinder Cadillac surmounts hills better and wftti parent effort. ep* With the Eight-Cylinder Cadillac, every enjoyment of motoring h ittttt*’ sifted and the motorist experiences less fatigue on long journeys. . The Eight-Cylinder Cadillac is the most economical car on the American market today, because it has durability, workmanhip and low operating expense which produces the most lasting and desirable service.

Crystal Creamery Co HASTINGS, MICH. yjini Chink of Henry Smith There is one peculiar thing about MONEY, and that is that it is often as hard to KEEP IT as it is to GET IT. There are sd many alluring ways to tempt people to invest money in outside ventures on the promise of a LARGE PER CENT of profit. I When you*send your money away from the county to be invested, you relinquish your control of it. You don’t KNOW the meh who are going to handle it; you do not know whether they will use it to further some project of their own; you don’t know whether they will loan it out on second mortgages or third mortgages that may later on prove worthless. In fact YOU DON’T KNOW MUCH ABOUT IT. You may get your higher rate of interest fqr a few times, but if your original capital is impaired, or wiped out entirely, WHERE do you profit? It would have been far, fr BETTER for you to ACTUALLY RECEIVE half the rate of interest and be SURE of it, than to have a PROMISE of 5 or 6 per cent and LOSE all of your investment, or a big part of it. Now we pay you 3 PER CENT interest on your Savings Deposits in this Bank, and we COMPOUND the interest TWICE EACH YEAR. That’s as much as any good, sound institution can afford to pay and DO A SAFE BUSINESS. When these outside institu­ tions pay more than that, they must take some RISKY LOANS in order to pay you TWICE AS MUCH. When you deposit your money here you can GET IT at ANY TIME YOU WANT IT. You KNOW us; you KNOW what kind of people we are, and how we do business. OF GRAND RAPIDS, MICH. WHY VHY NOT OPEN A SAVINGS ACCOUNT WITH US? BETTER BE SAFE THAN BE SORRY.

Oliver Plows, Cultivators, Harrows, Planters, Etc. The name •'Oliver” is fixed in the minds of farmers and fanner’s boyg for fifty years of plow making.. The "Oliver” is standard—beyond this none can go. The No. a6 Sulky is distinctly an Oliver creation. It is one of the younger members of the greater Oliver family and to be one of the younger, id to be either an improvement over a plow now on the market or .to fulfill a want heretofore unanswered. This inimitable power or “horse” lift stands as ooe of its biggest improvements. Thia lift is operated by a foot trip when riding, or by a hand latch when walking. The opera­ tor’s work is diminished at least by one-half, for simply by pressing forward lightly on the foot trip the plow's-action is easily controlled. The land lever, also, docs not require the plowman to lean back in an uncomfortable and unsafe position. This sulky further differs from the average, in that the land wheel is equipped With a lifting device that permits of a great range of travel, which feature adds to its qualifications for finishing a field , the stumbling block for most sulkies.

Reading to HHMMIBMHIM This is a day of specializing. A "Jack of All ' Trades^’ can fill but a secondary place in this busy commercial life, we are having during this generation. If in .no other way, we see ' the result of specializing in the products that are being turned out these days. The man who has devoted his whole life to perfecting the one product he is asking the public-to buy is rewarded by seeing his product sold easily in competition with those less perfectly made— . and this is not his only reward, he sees that there is a "skill," a "knack” wrapped up in his own product .that can never be found in the in­ ferior product because the producer had not spent all his days in the art of perfecting his product. This is one of the reasons why French’s White Lily Flour is selling so strong up and .down the whole of this part of the state. It is a product'made by specialists and frJm the best wheat that can be grown. in addition to the experience required by the specialist in the proper production of his 4; article, there is necessity for material equipvmeijt.

MICH �| April 22. 1915—20 Pages Part 3—Pages I 7 to 20 spray your ms Better be Sate Than be Sorry There is one peculiar thing about MONEY, and that is that it is often as hard to KEEP IT as it is to GET IT. There are so many alluring ways to tempt people to invest money in outside ventures on the promise of a LARGE PER CENT of profit. . , When you send your money away from the county to be invested, you relinquish your control of it. You don't KNOW the men who are going to handle it; you do not know whether they will use it to further some project of their own; you don't know whether they will loan it out on second mortgages or third mortgages that may later on prove worthless. In fact YOU DON'T KNOW MUCH ABOUT IT. You may get your higher rate of interest for a few times, but if your original capital is impaired, or wiped out entirely, WHERE do you profit? It would have|been far, f. BETTER for you to ACTUALLY RECEIVE half the rate of interest and be SURE of it. ' than to have a PROMISE of 5 or 6 per cent and LOSE all of your investment, or a big part ’ of it. ' I. Now we pay you 3 PER CENT interest on your Savings Deposits in this Bank, and we COMPOUND the interest TWICE EACH YEAR. That’s as much as any good, sound institution can afford to pay and DO A SAFE BUSINESS. When these outside institu­ tions pay more than that, they must take some RISKY LOANS in order to pay you TWICE AS MUCH. When you deposit your money here you can GET IT at ANY TIME YOU-WANT IT. You KNOW us; you KNOW what kind of people we are, and how we do business. ANBCHEiimtSNOw ------------- i PROF. TAFT OF THE M. A. C. ISSUES VALUABLE INSTRUCTIONS EbinB !w Smith OF GRAND RAPIDS, MICH.

The No. 26 Sulky is distinctly an Oliver creation. It is one of the younger members of the greater Oliver family and to be one of the younger, is to be/either an improvement over a plow now on the market or to fulfill a want heretofore unanswered. This inimitable power or "horse” lift stands as one of its biggest improvements. This lift is operated by a foot trip when riding, of by a hand latch when walking. The opera­ tor's work is diminished.at least by one-half, for simply by pressing forward lightly on the foot trip the plow's action is easily controlled. The land lever, also, docs not require the plowman to lean back in an uncomfortable and. unsafe position. This sulky further differs from the average, in that the land wheel is equipped with a lifting device that permits of a great range of travel, which feature adds to its qualifications for finishing a field ----------- , the-stumbling block for most sulkies. z We can furnish you with any Oliver implement. .

UIU' from They also know that it is the CLEANEST flour on the market. It is ALL PURE J’LOUR. 11 there was any machine on .the market that would aid us in making CLEANER and BETTER flour, we would buy it. That’s always been our policy, and it will continue to be. • We have an equipment that is right up to the' minute. No mill in the country has a BETT ER one and very few have as good. ' When you buy French s White Lily Flour you get just as CLEAN a flour as can be made. Our wheat is polished and scoured, special patented machinery taking out all the dust, dirt, cockle and broken kernels of grain. All through our machines there arc little devices thafe remove any particles of dirt that might possibly be dropped in dur­ ing the long process of manufacture. In the ordinary mills it is impossible to be so particular, because to do so would “take time" and that would cut down on production. For that reason in the smaller mills a lot of dirt,dust, etc. remains and Is ground up with the wheat. French's White Lily Flour is made after a "plan. erything has to be done "just so." We don’t pour in wheat and “hope” that the flour will be good. We KNOW in advance that it will be so, because it’s a plan that 40 years of active milling experience has taught us to be the best. We leave nothing to "chance." We presume that a great many women cannot under­ stand why there should be such.a great difference in the QUALIFY of flour. If they could see (he grain before we clean it, and after it is cleaned, and compare it with the work of other mills, they could see the first reason why French’s White Lily Flour is BETTER than others. Then if they could watch that wheat pass through the I 7 different sets of rolls, and observe the gradual reductioii of the particles of flour at each process, until at last it is reduced to a smooth, even “granulation.” Then every particle of flour is the same as every other particle, and they could better appreciate what an influence up-to-date milling equipment, and the best of expert help have on “QUALITY” in the manufacture of flour. in baking for the family, the woman who is provided with flour of a poor quality is at a great disadvantage, be­ cause the quality of her baking will vary with the quality of flour used. With French’s White Lily Flour there is no need* of having poor bakings, if'the s^ffic care is used in making the dough each time,because every sack of French’s White Lily Flour is jhst like the last sack of it that you bought. That’s vyhy the great majority of housewives in Barry County use it. They KNOW it is the BEST flour on the market. French’s White Lily doesn’t cost you any more than the ordinary flour. Why not try it? Why not order a sack today ? popti In I inn in increasing nl !<Mi.i'<Mt n rear. laud* m nlwut 1 l7.0txt.iMHt nf whirh h THE MARKETS Corrected Wednesday April Lb Jib.

Cavalry on the march sends up a dust cloud that is much higher and thinner than that of infantry. The moat distinctive of these dust clouds, however, la that made by wagons and heavy guns. The dust rises In little groups of clouds, quite different from the long clouds ot cavalry aud in fantry. So even when unable to see the actual cause of tho dust, a scout can tell many miles away what kind of force Is passing along a road. Chinese Mentality. Archibald Ross Colquhoun, author of “China lu Transformation." had great respect for the characteristics of the Chinese people. During hla long visits to their country In 1881, In 1883 .and In 4896 he had a chance of observing them In all their relations. Their in­ tellectual capacity, ho believes, "may rwnk with tho best In wos|em coun­ . triis.” Their own literary studies.

"A Chinese acquaintance of aixty-fivo to reproduce, verbatim, -let­ ter* received by him in bis youth." Whether in mathematics and applied science or in metaphysics "the Chi­ nese is - capable ot holding hla own against all competitors." A new re­ vised edition "China In Tranetormation" was brought Aut two years before Mr. Colquhoun's death. ■ Spring House Cleaning Time This is and if it wc- shall styles. one of our mauy. hue tables is not just what you desire be glad to show you other g, .

Roofing for any and all purposes. Cheap roofing at $1.00 for the man 'who.wants to cover some cheap old building. Then the better grades from $1.1 5 to $1.75. * Then comes the old reliable Sanded Asphalt Roofing, I have sold for ten years. 1 have sold thousands of squares of this roofing, and have never had the first complaint. Then 1 have the Red and Green Slate or Granite Roofing. This is an extra good roofing, weight 85 pounds to the square. Next is the Gal-va-nite Roofing and last is the Bermite. These two last kinds are not often found in one’s stock of roofing, but buying in car lots as I do I am able to put in some kinds that others do not carry, and make a price that others are not in position to make.

INDEPENDENT MICHIGAN A WONDERFUL STATE Save Your Money Chink of fienry Smith Ko Other Equal To It Says Gommifi.iioner A. 0. Car­ ton, of Lansing. OF GRAND RAPIDS, MICH. ‘'Michigan i* more independent than While You Are Making It I . Don’t get into thie HABIT of spending it as fast as you earn it. Young men and young women especially, should lay by a part of their eaming^each week or month, with the idea of either going into some busines^^-cfr investing it where it will bring them some SURE, FIXED return, that will care for them when their earning days are over, or when sickness or misfortune overtakes them. The habit of spending money as fast as it is earned is a.most unwise one. Those who form that habit ALWAYS reach a.point in life where they look back with regret to a youth that was wasted. When their earning days are over, their declining years, which should be their happiest, are spent: in a sort of "hand-to-mouth" way, if not in actual want. There are many men in every community who can bear witness to this truth. I he best and SUREST way to succeed is to "KEEP PLUGGING." Re­ solve to be a little better off today than you were yesterday. Follow this plan for a few years by saving your money, and your SUCCESS is assured. You take the successful men, or women, in any community, and you will find that at least 95 percent of them attained success by steady accumula­ tions, week after week, month after month, year after year. Comparatively very, very few attain wealth in a brief period of time. - And while you are SAVING your money, put it where you KNOW it will be safe, and where it will be WORKING FOR YOU every hour of the day. The best way is to deposit it in our SAVINGS DEPARTMENT. We will pay you 3 PER CENT INTEREST on your Savings, and COMPOUND THE INTEREST TWICE EACH YEAR. That’s MORE than a Govern­ ment bond will net you. and you can get your money here any time you need it, and your money left with us is just as safe as a bond. We have started many young men and young women on the road to suc­ cess. Why not you?

The Tremendous Extent of American Industries Is Demonstrated By the Displays of*“Made'In U. S. A.” Goods Featured Here This Week. The war in Europe has given Americanmanufacturers a long-looked for opportunity to show the world what they are capable of doing. The opportunity has been seized with that masterly spirit of enterprise which has made the industries of oUr country world leaders. With unfailing per­ sistence? American manufacturers set themselves the task of producing those things which foreign countries have hitherto sent us; of improving upon them wherever possible. And that they have gloriously succeeded you will admit when you see the extensive displays of “Made In U. S. A." goods at this store. Behind this National Made In U. S. A. Week is a sound and solid idea. Let us explain it. The struggle of the European nations has serious­ ly interfered with our commerce. American manufacturers MUST seek new outlets for a large part of their output or close down. Every fac­ tory that closes down means work people thrown out of employment. Unemployment means business depression which sooner or later would affect us all. YOU cap help to keep American factories running on full time. Buy goods Made in U. S. A. and BUY LIBERALLY. Come to our store during National Made In U. S. A. Week; sec how well American manufacturers have anticipated your requirements; see what large stocks of Made In U. S. A. goods we are showing. And see the ECONOMY in buying American goods. When you pay for American merchaidise, you pay for ALL GOODS and NO DUTY. Isn’t that worth while considering. 4»1 Ti’T2.* ; : M1 —hi 48 “STAR" Bargains our Dote daughter and Mr*.

The name “Oliver” is fixed in the minds of farmers and farmer's boys for fifty years of plow making.. The “Oliver" is standard—beyond this none can go. The.No- 26 Sulky is distinctly an Oliver creation. It is one of the younger members of the greater Oliver family and to be one of the younger, is to be either an improvement over a plow now on the market or to fulfill a’wantjierctofore unanswered. ’ This inimitable power or “horse" lift stands as one of its biggest improvements. This lift is operated by a foot trip when riding, or by a hand latch when walking. The opera­ tor’s work is diminished at least by one-half, for simply by pressing forward lightly on the foot trip the plow’s action is easily controlled. The land lever, also, does not require the plowman to lean back in an uncomfortable and unsafe position. This sulky further differs from the average, in that- the land wheel is equipped with a lifting device that permits of a great range of travel, which feature adds to its qualifications for finishing a field ----------- , the stumbling block, (or most sulkies.

Rut the law operates iu politics, nnd it* operation la, generally ►(~-ahlng, health gi ving to the body I jailitie. . ’ ' du«t qnw we have.an example of the operation of thin Inw-in-politics in the eotirsr i.f the republican party. Starting wheft -Jbrosevelt succeeded Mc­ Kinley came the ••action” designed to curb corporations, destroy trusts, and •‘punish malefactor* of greap*wea!lh.” Of what wax actually accomplished in Ihe way of legislation ilesigned to reach these ends it may.be, said that for the roost part it was good, and has been helpful. But the trouble wax IhaPthox,- who were muinly responsibly for what was done did not jwrni to I I now when or where to stop. They minted next to reduce Jhe court* to mere nntoinatir devices for carrying out the whims of the psmple, swaying them this any nnd that with public sentiment aiul wilhont regard tp Ihe terms of the Inw. ’An independent judiciary was to be maifa-w'xirrv ife, xote-seeking. |«ipularity seeking dejuiriroent of government, wfatr (enure nf office would de|-im<l .lyron their ability to guess what the jroople would like to have them de­ ride dlid not U|Min their ability to interpret the Ian. For a time it seemed ax if lheX|unlificntlon par excellence of a statesman* in the minds of the people, consisted in bis ability to invent some nj*w legislative device-for bam|K-rini! business; and making men who had large tncans 'invested in manlifnrtnring enterprises feel that they must readjust their business to some new, annoying and impractical, scheme devised by those who felt that they had Ii divine rail to muckrake business, or gain the approval of the magazine’s and yellow journal’s professional hired Tnurkraker*. As n result of all this we had the split in the republican party in 19l2r nnd the divided party led to the election of President Wilson, backed by ti democratic house nnd- senate.' President Wilson, misconstruing his election by -II (x-r eent of the voters has thrown the business of the country into 17 kinds of fits by his turiff-for-rrvcnue-only policy. That has made the business, ।-lofessiiinal and labor elements of our people look to.the rcjiubliran party for relief. Naturally enough those who stood by the regular ri-puldicati ranopiate* in IMI2 feel that their party and their policies are vindicated, and that tlx- country is ready to^gain enthrone the old xtand-(iat oligarchy, head­ ed by Cannon, in^beir old places and that dictation by them is the demand ■>>’ the hour. In other worth this is the reaction, But if the republican party shall lie foolish enough to-follow those who all but wrecked it In 19)2 it will be due for another drubbing in the. not dis­ tant future, and will merit what it will gel. But wo do not believe the republicans in congress will follow any lead rrohlp that will bring btirk the atand-pat era with its control of legislative and ’party action. A rraetiorTagainst *u]>erlaiivo meddlesomeness y<Ith lutrities* is dur and will be helpful. But a reaction that goes the length of re­ storing to power a political oligarchy like that so long dominated by tho late Senator Aldrich in the upper house nnd Congressman t'hnnon in the lower louse is not merely undesirable but is insufferable and the |>eoplo will never Hand for it. And we believe there is enough patriotism nnd common sense to savr the country and the party from such an unfortunate situation. We i vpeet it will be saved from such folly, and that the reaction, from the ex­ treme radicalism of recent years will be helpful. , MINNEAPOLIS SYMPHONY Of Pierson’s Great Stock I Began Wednesday, May 5th, at 9 a. m.

Don't get into the HABIT of spending it as fast as you earn it. Young men and young women especially, should lay by a part of their earnings each week or mopth, with the idea of either going into some busi­ ness, or investing it yyhere it will bring them some SURE, FIXED return, that will care for them when their earning days are over, or when sickness or misfortune overtakes them. „ ■ The habit of spending money as fast as it is earned ik a most unwise one. Those who form that habit ALWAYS reach a point in life wheije they look back with regret to a youth that was wasted. When their earning days are over, their declining years, winch should be their happiest, are spent in a sort of “hand-to-mouth" way, if not in actual want. There .... . . many men 'in every community who bear witness to this truth. The best and SUREST way to succeed is to “KEEP PLUGGING." Re­ solve to be a little better off today than you were yesterday. Follow this plan for a few years by saving your money, and your SUCCESS is assured. You take the successful men, or women, in any community, and you will find that at least 95 per cent of them attained success by steady accumula­ tions, week after week, month after month, year after year. Comparatively very, very few attain wealth in a brief period of time. And while you are SAVING your money, put it where you KNOW it will ‘be safe, and where it will be WORKING FOR YOU every hour of the day. The best way is to deposit it in our SAVINGS DEPARTMENT. We will pay you 3 PER CENT INTEREST on your Savings, and COMPOUND THE INTEREST TWICE EACH YEAR. That’s MORE than a Govern­ ment bond will net you, and you can get your money here any time you need it, and your money left with us is just as safe as a bond. We have started many young men and young women on the road to suc­ cess. Why not you? Why not start a Savings Account with this Bank today? .

(Join one.) • One Elgin gold watch is open to everybody. The other Elgin gold watches are for Boosters. । Beginning Friday of this week we are going to give Booster Coupons with every cash 'purchase made at or through our store. A 5-cent purchase will secure five coupons, a 10-cent purchase, ten coupons, etc. Coupons will be given at the same rate for settlement of accounts. The Capital Prize will be given to the Booster who, at the close of the Boos­ ter Club Campaign has had the most coupons deposited to his or her credit, in the ballot box at our store. . Each Booster will have a Patron Club of ten members, and each week the different Pat­ ron Clubs will compete for prizes of Simeon L. & Geo. H. Rogers table silverware. There will be lots pf fun and excitement. Bpt better than this will be the correspon­ dence course for each Booster, a course that will not only direct the work, but give a train- ' ing in practical salesmanship and business relations that will be of great value in after life. Each Wednesday there will be a sale on some special article, on which we shall give ex­ tra coupons. This article will be changed from week to week. WATCH for the Wednes­ day specials. . During the closing week of each special feature of the Booster Club Campaign there will be a big bunch of coupon bargains, when extra coupons will be given on all cash pur­ chases. These weeks will come at feur-week intervals. Watch for them, and make heavy purchases then. • We will give 100.000 Booster Coupons to the couple who will be married in our store. This must be told us in advance, that we may invite your friends. Next week the "Big Booster** will be here. Come to our store and see him; find out all about the Booster Club, and then join. There is no initiation fee, and no dues. This is an op­ portunity that- may neyer come your way again. We want a thousand or more persons to become active helpers for’the members of our Boostcn.Chib. In order that you may help your .favorite, we shall give Booster Coupons free to each person, over years old, who comes to'our ^torc on Saturday, May 15th, and registers in a book provided for that purpose. .0-»p«.p.ho , . , ........ .

Alfalfa is proven to be the most nutritious of feeds for dairy cows, beef cattle, sheep, hogs, horses, poultry and the blossoms aid the bees in making heavy yields of.rich, excellent honey. Alfalfa increases the yield of succeeding crops—it nearly doubles the yield of grain and increases the value of potatoes, per acre $20, oats $20.

REE.LS OF FILM furnishing an entertainment lasting O.ne Hour and a Half. ' \ Admission 5c and 10c. Doors Open at 6:30, Starts at 7 O’clock Kuenzel’s Orchestra Will Furnish Music 'W' A Word About the “Crown” Theatre The Policy of the “Crown” Theatre 1 have aimed to give the people of Hastings, and Barry County the MOST COMPLETE Tlieater that money can build, and the "CROWN” represents^the very "last word" in construction. Mr. W. R. Werkins, of Anderson, Indiana, is the owner, and Frank Curtis, of Charlotte, the architect and builder. / “SAFETY FIRST”—was always foremost in my thoughts when building, and to this has been added "COMFORT.” CONVENIENCE and SANITARY CON­ SIDERATIONS, which you will seldom find in Theaters in;a city of the size of Hastings. 7 EXITS—The building is as near "FIRE PROOF”’ as it’could be made. )It has 7 EXITS and a CROSS ISLE leading to the east exit. The building is of BRICK ’ and STUCCO, with STEEL. CEILINGS and the Indirect System of lighting. .There are 7 VENTILATORS which will insure plenty of good fresh, pure air > at all times. OPERATING ROOM—-The Operating Room is.built of STEEL and CEMENT with an overhead vent, and in tase a film should catch on fir6, can be entirely SHUT OFF. Phis absolutely guarantees SAFETY to EVERYONE present in the Theater. ’ _ ‘' AUDITORIUM—The Auditoriufn is 90 by 34 feet, withjLstage-18 by 34 feet; and LOBBY I 5 by 34 feet. The seats are UPHOL STEReD, and are LARGE and ROOMY. I have the very latent and b<est model of machine, and will show a picture 12x16 FEET. There are-many other features of-which I might speak if space permitted. . I built this building just as good as I knew how to build it, because I deeply appreci­ ate the patronage the pedple of this City and County have given me, and believed that they in turn would be glad to patronize a perfectly SAFE, SANITARY, and up-to-the-minute Theater, furnishing the vefy best fclays produced. TUESDAY AND FRIDAY NIGHT SPECIALS Every TUESDAY and FRIDAY night, after I get started, I will put on some high class SPECIALS, which .will be regular/features on those evenings. There will be high class, interesting pictures EVERY WEEK NIGHT besides. “THE CHRISTIAN”—I have already booked "The Christian” for June 1 5tK. This • is too well known to need any yvords from me, but is only an earnest of what our policy will be and the character of the plays we will present. “THE CABIRIA”—1 have booked “CAB1R1A” for. July 1 7th. This is the greatest moving picture play ever produced; costing $350,00(7 for, the first film, and re­ quiring about 21 hours to show it. "Cabiria” portrays incidents in the Punic Wars, shows the burning of a fleet of Roman ships by means of a large sun glass; the eruption'of Mt. Aetna. You can always see the BEST things at the "CROWN” and at popular prices. T. C. PALMER, Manager, Hastings, Mich. �THE HASTINGS KANNEH. M < I The Power of Cash H.

The name “Oliver" is fixed in the minds of farmers and farmer’s boys for fifty years of plow making.. The “Oliver" is standard—beyond this none can-go. The No. 26 Sulky is distinctly an Oliver creation. It is one of the younger members of the greater Oliver family and to be one of the younger, is to be either an improvement over a plow now on the market or to fulfill a want heretofore unanswered. This inimitable power or "horse” lift stands as one of its biggest improvements. This lift is operated by a foot trip when riding, or by a hand latch when-walking. The opera­ tor’s Work is diminished at -least by one-half, for simply by pressing forward lightly on the foot trip the plow’s action is easily controlled. The land lever# also, 'does not require the plowman to lean back in an uncomfortable and unsafe position. This sulky further differs from the average, in that the land wheel is equipped with.a lifting device that permits of a great range of travel, which feature adds to its qualifications fop finishing a field the stumbling block for most sblkies. We can furnish you with any Oliver implement. A DRAMA to be given in FIVE ACTS Admission: Adults 25c, Children 15c and ho had no patience with erkry trickster.

We like to have people make a batch of dough from French’s White Lily and a batch from any other flour claimed to be "just as good.’’ Put the loaves into an oven side by side, and bake them at the same time.

If sickness comes; if you lose your job; if the factory closes down or goes on short hours you don’t have to worry, because your bank account will look after you until you find something else to do. ) . _And ANYBODY can get a good Bank account. It only means SPENDING LESS THAN YOU EARN and depositing the difference in the Bank and SETTING IT TO WORK FOR YOU. More people have good Bank accounts with us today than EVER BEFORE. More people have adopted the habit of saving something from their salary EVERY WEEK or month, and depositing it in this Bank. A good many of them have hundreds of dollars SAVED, and some of them are in the THOUSANDS, But thpre are still a good many young men and young women, making big wages, who are SAVING NOTHING. They are spend­ ing their money just as fast as they make it—and some of them a little faster. If these young people would cut out some of their extravagant habits, they could become INDEPENDENT in the next 10 or 15 YEARS. Man/of them could save from $100 to $400 or $500 a year, and think what that would mean to them 10 or 15 years from now! It would mean that they would be on ’’EASY STREET.” The interest on “SAVINGS” every SIX MONTHS would be a good respectable sum. and if you wanted ready money at ANY TIME to. take advantage of any “opportunity” the CASH would be always here at your order. We pay 3 PER CENT interest on your Savings Deposits and compound the interest twice each year. That's as much as any in­ stitution can AFFORD TO PAY. and DO A GOOD SAFE BUSI­ NESS.

Seed Your Fann With ALFALFA Alfalfa recognized as “King of Forage Crops” is of Arabic origin meaning “The Best Fodder.” It was used by the Greeks and Persians 2,400 years ago and has been intro­ duced from one country to another until it has reached this United States and it is known now to be “The Mainstay of the Cattle Farmer” and is grown extensively throughout United States and Canada.

The “Oliver'* is standard—beyond this none can go. ‘ The No. 26 Sulky is distinctly an Oliver creation«**ft is one of the younger members of the greater Oliver family and to be one of the younger, is to be'either an improvement over' a plow now on the market or to fulfill a want heretofore unanswered. This inimitable power or "horse” lift stands as one of its biggest improvements. This lift is operated by a foot trip when riding, or by a hand latch when walking. The opera­ tor's work is diminished at least by one-half, for simply by pressing forward lightly on the foot trip the plow's action is easily controlled. The land lever, also, does not require the plowman to lean back in an uncomfortable and unsafe position. This sulky further differs from the average, in that the land wheel is equipped with a lifting device that permiU of a great range of travel, which feature adds to its qualifications for finishing a field ------------ , the stunibltng block for most sulkies.

Our whole thought, time and energy have been centered on that ONE THING. .We have provided ourselves with a mill that for up-to-date equipment; labor-saving and time-saving devices, cannot be surpassed in this whole country.

When a place baa once been cleared of spar- We’have never tried to. see HOW MUCH flour we could crowd through this mill every day, but have always aimed to. see HOW GOOD a flour we could make. This has been our policy from the start.- As a result French’s White Lily Flou,r won a reputation for QUALITY. The demand for it continued to increase, until we were compelled to run this mill night and day, year in and year out. There is nothing that you oan ,eat that will be better for you than pure, wholesome bread and butter. Good bread is really the foun­ dation of all living. You take any home where there is plenty of good, bread consumed, and you will find a healthy, happy family. Good bread can only be made from GOOD flour. It can’t be made from poor flour, though a good many people persistently try to do it, and then wonder why their bakings are poor. The QUALITY of your bread must depend very largely upon the quality of the flour you use. You can’t get aw^y from that fact. If YOU are having "baking troubles" why don't you do just as the great majority of the people in Barry Cdunty do—buy French’s White Lily?

GET THE HABIT OF SAVING REGULARLY. * - IT WILL LEAD TO FINANCIAL INDEPENDENCE FOR YOU When you’ve got a good Bank account you KNOW YOU ARE ALL RIGHT. If sickness comes; if you lose your job; if the factory closes down or goes on short hours you don’t have to worry, because your bank account will look after you until you find something else to dol . ' And ANYBODY can get a good Bank accoupE' It only means SPENDING LESS THAN YOU EARN and depositing lhe difference . in the Bank and SETTING 1TTO WORK FOR YOU. . More people have good Bank accounts with us today than EVER BEFORE. More people have adopted the habit of saving something from their salary EVERY WEEK or month, and depositing it in this Bank. A good many of them have hundreds of dollars SAVED, and some of them are in the THOUSANDS. . But there are still a good many young men and young women, making big wages, who are SAVING NOTHING. They are spend­ ing their money just as fast as they make it—and some of them a little faster. If these young people would cut out some of their extravagant habits, they could become. INDEPENDENT in the next 10 or 15 YEARS. Many of them could save from $100 to $400 or $500 a year, and think what that would mean.to them 10 or 15 years from now! It would mean that they would be on "EASY STREET." The interest on "SAVINGS" every SIX MONTHS would be a good respectable sum, and if you wanted ready money at ANY TIME to take advantage of any "opportunity" lhe CASH would be al\yays here at your order. We pay 3 PER CENT interest on your Savings Deposits and compound the interest twice each year. That’s.as much as any in­ stitution can AFFORD TO PAY, and DO A GOOD SAFE BUSI­ NESS. _ , Why not start on the road to SUCCESS?

There is a cer­ tain “something" about it that commends it to the,housewife. She KNOWS that the actual RESULTS that she gets from using that flour are always the best. She knows from experience that she can DEPEND upon that flour every time she uses it, and that the results of her baking will always be the same—ALWAYS GOOD. Now WHAT IS THERE about French’s White Lily Flour that makes it so much BETTER and MORE DEPENDABLE than other flours? To begin with, we use extra bare in the selection of the grain we use. By paying farmers a BONUS for wheat that TESTS over 60 POUNDS to the bushel, we get the very CHOICEST Michigan wheat grown right here in Barry county and Michigan wheat is the BEST WHEAT GROWN for making flour. For this rea­ son Michigan wheat commands the highest price in the market. Then this mill is operated entirely by WATER POWER, the BEST power known, because it is always SMOOTH and EVEN, and NEVER VARIES like other power. To make a smooth, even quality of flour, there must be a uniform power, without the "ups” and “downs" peculiar to other ppw’ers. To make the BEST flour, the machinery must be driven at a steady, uniform speed ALL THE TIME—not "part" of the time, but all the time. That's where our water power is of immense advantage to this mill, and is one of SEV­ ERAL reasons why the QUALITY of French's is always so even. Our mill is equipped with the very latest and best models of flour­ making machinery, which we installed only a couple of years ago. No mill has'a better equipment than we, and very few as good. French’s White Lily Flour is made by the best of expert help, and besides all of this is our experience of OVER 40 YEARS in making it. , J • So great has been the demand for it that for 30 YEARS-we have been compelled to run night and day, year in and year put. Every Grocer and Elevator handles French’s White Lily Flour. There is more of it used in Barry County than of all other flours com­ bined. It ALWAYS give the highest’ SATISFACTION because it is MADE RIGHT, and it is SOLD RIGHT. It doesn't cost you any­ more than flour of inferior quality. The advantages we have in manufacture,- in the way of owning our own water power; having the best equipment; and running night and day, enable us to put it on the market at a remarkably low price when you consider QUAL­ ITY. If YOU have been using some other flour in your home; if your bread,, cakes and pastries have not been good ALL THE TIME, or eVen part of the time, why not give French’s White Lily Flour a trial? You will find that it will cut down the COST OF LIVING, because you won’t have anything spoiled and wasted.. You will find French’s White Lily Flour is the BEST in QUAL­ ITY—but it doesn’t cost YOU any more. Why not order a trial sack next time? Why not DO IT NOW? R. T. FRENCH.

At least the chances artften to one you won’t. Now. the money you TAKE IN IS NOT. YOURS. Sdrne of it should go as interest on the loan. A lot more- ' of'it should go into a sinking fund to retire the loan, and a much larger proportion should be SET ASIDE, to re­ place the sale of the goods YOU SOLD, which have not been replaced. * THE ONLY WAY to DEVELOP this capacity is to start a SAVINGS ACCOUNT, and to keep it ALIVE and GROWING. So AFTER you get your money PROPERLY DIS­ TRIBUTED you probably won't have much more left than you had when you were working on a SALARY— but your EXPENSES will JUMP UPWARDS by leaps and bounds. There's where so many make failures in business. Possibly you can borrow the capital to start. But DON'T boriow your first capital—SAVE IT. For in the act of SAVING you will GAIN MORE than the capi­ tal itself. You will gain the CONFIDENCE of a Banker, which every business man should have when he starts. You will gain the CONFIDENCE of YOURSELF —faith in your own ability to CONSERVE, which is the first principle of successful management. You might to able to borrow money to start in hiisinesa, and start off with a good volume of sales. At the end of the first month you would find yourself in posses•■ion of several times as much REAL CASH as'you ever had AT ONE TIME. Here 4s where your EXPERIENCE in managing a SAVINGS ACCOUNT will TEACH YOU how to dis­ count and distribute the INCOME of your BUSINESS, ; because you have TRAINED YOURSELF to regulate OUTGO with INCOME, with SOMETHING LEFT OVER. | Why nol .lari a SAVINGS ACCOUNT with a good part of your next PAY CHECK?

Agricultural writers agree that the most important substances taken from the soil by continued cropping are phot­ phone acid, nitrogen and potash.

We have the nicest line of Footwear, especially suitable for Commencement Day, that you will find in Barry County,-and at prices very reasonable.

This rep­ utation has been steadily built up year by. year, until today there are hundreds and thousands of families in Barry County, and throughout Michigan, who will use no other flour. But we never have, and NEVER WILL BE satisfied with any onesuccess that we have achieved. We appreciate that this is an age of “PROGRESS," and methods of manufacture are constantly IM­ PROVING. Our aim has been to "keep up in the front rank of the procession." We are "going ahead" all the time, because we KNOW that we have to MAKE GOOD. One little spurt ahead, and then setting back on the strength of that one success "doesn’t go" with*us. We never let up for one single minute in our efforts to make French’s White Lily Flour just as good as it can possibly be made with our superior equipment. We employ the best of skilled help; we overlook no detail in any part, from the time the grain is brought in, until the flour is tied up in the sack. We never have and never will let EXPENSE stand in the way of making French’s White Lily Flour just a little BETTER than any other flour. In our big mill you will find that EVERY MACHINE is of the very latest and most up-to-date Honeymoon Lies. models that money can buy. We spent thousands of dollars to im­ prove. Our constant thought all the time is "QUALITY." We put our wheat through more processes than other mills do. Every bit of the flour goodness is taken out Then it is rolled and re-rolled, again and again, until it is rolled just as fine as possible. * Every particle is just the same as every other particle and for that rea­ son it takes the yeast and water more evenly. Your bfead raises quicker, and bakes quicker. You have better bread, and it saves the housewife a lot of time on bake days. If yoq don’t think so, have her try this experiment: Have her make a batch of bread from French’s White Lily Flour, and a batch’from any other flour claimed to be "just as good." Bake them side by side in the same oven. You can “see for yourself." You’ll think more of French’s White Lily Flour afterwards, and you will appreciate, as never before, that in our large expenditures to improve QUALITY, we have the best in­ terests of our large number of patrons always at h^art. We NEVER let EXPENSE stand in the way of IMPROVEMENT. The next time you order Flour, why not try French’s White Lily? Wc absolutely GUARANTEE that it will PLEASE YOU, so you run no chances. .

Inv«stigate the markets of course, and the man that offers you the best deal gets the goods, that's good business. Are you doing that with your dairy products? If you are not you should begin at once. The dairy is the most important part of your farm, it is the one thing that will fur­ nish you with spending money the year through if you will work it right. Get in touch with the Crystal Creamery and investigate- their high average price paid for butter fat the year through. The outcome will please you. We have one natron who-was sending his milk to us when we bought th> plant three years ago; he was milking at that-tithe six or seven head and wasn't right sure that it was paying him or not.

Don't trust yourself with the income of a business, until you have shown the CAPACITY to handle the IN= COME of a JOB. and to SAVE MONEY out of ANY INCOME. - THE ONLY WAY to DEVELOP this capacity is to start a SAVINGS ACCOUNT, and to keep it ALIVE and GROWING. • ■ Possibly you can borrow the'capital to start. But DON’T borrow your first capital—SAVE IT.' For in the act of SAVING you will GAIN MORE than the capi­ tal itself. You will gain the CONFIDENCE of a Banker, which every business man should have when he starts. You will gain the CONFIDENCE of YOURSELF —faith in your own ability to CONSERVE, which is lhe first principle of successful management. YOU BORROWED you would be all right—BUT YOU WON'T. At least the chances are ten to one you won’t. Now the mortey you TAKE IN IS NOT YOURS Some of it should go as interest on the loan. A lot more of it should go into a sinking fund to retire the loan, and a much larger proportion should be SET ASIDE, to re­ place the sale of the goods YOU SOLD, which have not been replaced. So AFTER you get your money PROPERLY DIS­ TRIBUTED you probably won't have much more left than you had when you were working on a SALARY— but your EXPENSES will JUMP UPWARDS by leaps and bounds. There's where so many make failures in business. . Here is where your EXPERIENCE in managing a SAVINGS ACCOUNT will TEACH YOU how to dis­ count and distribute the INCOME of your BUSINESS, because you have TRAINED YOURSELF to regulate OUTGO with INCOME, with SOMETHING LEFT OVER.

In fact right now is the BEST time for vou to buy Coal, because from now on the PRICE will ADVANCE EV­ ERY MONTH. ‘ The SURE WAY TO CUT DOWN YOUR LIVING- EXPENSES is to SAVE MONEY on your purchases WHEREVER and WHENEVER you can. If you can save 50c to 75r_ and possibly more, on EACH TON of COAL you buy, you can’t save mon­ ey anv EASIER. You must have fuel to burn. Why not buy it NOW, rather than 3 months later, and SAVE THE DIFFERENCE IN PRICE. Of course it would be MONEY IN OUR ROCKETS to sell our Coal late as possible, and GET THE LONG PRICE FOR IT. because the .INCREASE in e pride EACH r FIRST duty is MONTH IS MORE THAN SIX PER CENT. But we always feekthat to benefit our customers, who have so liberally and loyally patronized year after year ever since we have been in business. We dare say that there are a good many people in Hastings and vicinity right now, who have plenty of money in the bank, or at home, who will not order their coal for several months ynet, because they DON'I WANT TO BE TO THE EXPENSE just now. The fact is that by going to this UNAVOIDABLE ‘expense NOW. they will save money later. They could well afford to go to the bank and BORROW THE MONEY for 3 to 6 months, and STILL BE MONEY AHEAD. Just sit down and figure it out for yourself. . WE ARE NOW IN POSITION TO SUPPLY YOU AT THE LOWEST POSSIBLE PRICES. From year to year otir Coal trade has been increasing. It has increased because our pat­ rons always KNOW that we look after them; that we give the BEST OF SERVICE, and that they always get 2,000 POUNDS FOR EVERY TON THEY ORDER.

You can't make good flour by simply "mashing" it between clum­ sy stones, nor worn-out iron rolls. But if you go into most of the mills, you will find that kind of an equipment. French's White Lily Flour is put through a "series" of rolls, and they are not just common iron rolls. They are made of specially constructed chilled iron, which revolve rapidly against each other in opposite directions. This makes every particle of French's White Lily Flour the same shape and size and is called "even granulation.’’ Being of the same size, the space between them is even. The yeast works all through it.evenly. You won’t find a great big bunch of flour with'no yeast, and other spots heavy and soggy, with an over-abundance of yeast. That’s why, when you use French’s White Lily your bread is al­ ways sure to rise. And when the loaves are baked they will be evenly-grained, wholesome loaves—never heavy or soggy when prop­ erly kneaded and baked. We have an equipment of the very latest models of machinery. We run night and day, year in and year out, and never permit our ma­ chinery to "cool off," which throws it out of proper adjustment. Why not just try a sack of the Frenqh's White Lily we are mak­ ing today? It's better than ever before. It don’t cost you any .mor£, and every sack is guaranteed.

Syria, almost tb>* only country In tho world In which pistachio nuts are cultivated, produces about half a mil­ lion pounds of them a year. Because It Is Made Right If you will use French’s White Lily Four, properly knead your dough, and use just good, plain, ordinary common sense in baking it, you will find your loaves perfectly even-grained. The air-cells will be uniform, and almost as mathematically exact as the tells of bees honeycomb. It won’t be thick and heavy in places, and large holes in others, as is the case with improperly milled flour, and that’s just the kind of flour you get in any mill with an*old equipment, or. in any mill that funs only a few hours each day and then stops.

MORE ATTENTION TO BRIDGES Greatest Menace to Tractor Which Could Be Put to More Use on Many of the Smalt Farms. We will never bo able to readily make much use of the gas or steam tractor on the farms until we make up our minds to pay more attention to our roads- and bridges. Especially the bridges. They are UjCJfreatc«t men-' an co to tho tractor and the tractor's driver, and there has beep .UMi^ im­ Marguerite Bower uf Nashville aix-nt provement la tho type of bridges sltice Thursday nnd Friday at Will Bar*. the engine was put to work on the Mrs. phcldun uf ’ North Castleton farms, writes'William E. Hose of Iowa ■ pent Bunday with her daughter, Mra. in Farm Progress. It Is rather strange that we are will­ ing to use tho traction engine to pull our road plows and our road graders and still refuse to build bridges and culverts strong enough to allow tho same engine to pass in safety when pulling a threshing outfit or a train of farm wagons. * But it Is the truth, nev- Provide Yourself With Good Haying Tools You Will Save the Price of Them This Year in Time and Labor Securing Your Crop W ITH THE SPLENDID CROP OF HAY YOU ARE EXPECTING THIS SEASON YOU CAN NOT DO WITHOUT A HAY LOADER. A GOOD HAY LOADER WILL VERY NEARLY PAY FOR ITSELF DURING THE FIRST SEASON IN A SAVING OF TIME AND LABOR. NO FARMER SHOULD EVEN ATTEMPT TO HARVEST SUCH A STAND OF HAY AS THERE IS THIS YEAR W ITHOUT BEING PROVIDED WITH A NEW DEERE HAY LOADER. Some Advantages of the New Deere The New Deere Loader gets all the hay because it has a “double pick-up” that controls the swath or windrow from both sides as it is lifted from the ground Clean hay commands a higher price, hence a loader that takes the hay up free from all trash is worth more than one that does not. The New Deere leader is a HAY loader only—rt will not gather up bottom trash. Good hay consists of more than the stems. In fact, the principal feed value resides in the leaves and foliage parts of the plant, and this is specially true of the clover and alfalfa. * Experience has proven that the New Deere k / ’ ia, the only satisfactory loader for handling / ripe clover for seed. . If you can do more tfian the other fel-' low—aren’t you worth more? Of course, and that’s one reason the New Deere Load­ er is worth more than any other—it will do ■’more, not to speak of doing it belter.

Investigate the markets of course, and the man that offers you the best deal gets the goods, that's good business. Arc you doing that with your dairy, products? If you are not you should, begin at once. The-dairy is the most important part of your farm, it is the one thing that will furnigh you with spending money the year through if you will work it right. Get in touch with the Crystal Creamery and investigate their high average price paid for butter fat» the year through. The outcome will please you. ' U^hiave one patron who.was sending his milk to us when wc bought the plant three years ago: he was milking at that time six or seven head and wasn:t right sure that it was paying him or not. HE KNOWS NOW ALRIGHT.' He is. now milking TWENTY. TWO HEAD WITH A MILKING MACHINE. HIS PAY CHECK EACH WEEK IS CLOSE TO J60.00. WOULDN'T THAT SOUND GOOD TO„YOUR BANK ACCOUNT? ■ This is just one sample of how our patrons are increasing.their herds.

There is no "royal road to. success." The great majority of those who attain it get there by steady per­ sistent SAVING-a few dollars EVERY WEEK or EVERY MONTH. It happens very often that those who have fortunes left to them, or who make a large sum all at one time through speculation, are not able to HANG ONTO IT. They do not have the EXPERIENCE in financial matters to "manage" their money after they get it. They invest in foolish schemes; they contract expensive habits; they do many things that "separate thbm from their money," and the first thing they know they are “broke.” They do not KNOW the VALUE of a dollar, because they have never had to WORK and EARN and SAVE. .

In fact right npw is the REST time for you to buy Coal, because from now on the PRICE will ADVANCE EV­ ERY MONTH. The SURE WAY TO CUT DOWN YOUR LIVING EXPENSES is to SAVE MONEY on your purchases WHEREVER and WHENEVER you can. Jf you can save 50c to 7 5c, and possibly more, on EACH TON of COAL you buy, you can’t save mon­ ey any EASIER. You must have fuel to burn. Whv not buy Ji NOW, rather than 3 or 4 months later, and SAVE THE DIFFERENCE IN PRICE. Of course it would be MONEY IN OUR POCKETS to sell our Coal as late as possible, and GET THE LONG PRICE FOR IT, because the INCREASE in the price EACH MONTH IS MORE THAN SIX PER CENT. But we always feel that our FIRST duty is to benefit our customers, who have so liberally and loyally patronized us year after year ever since we have been in business. Hastings and vicinity right now, who We dare say that there are a good many peoph have plenty of money in the bank, or at home, who will not order their coal tor severalmonths yet, .because they DON’T WANT TO BE TO THE EXPENSE just now. The fact is that by going to this UNAVOIDABLE "expense” NOW, they will save money later. They could well afford to go to the bank and BORROW I HE MONEV for 3 to 6 months, and STILL BE MONEY AHEAD. Just sit down and figure it out for yourself. WE ARE NOW IN POSITION TO SUPPLY YOU AT THE LOWEST POSSIBLE PRICES. ' From year to year our Coal trade has been increasing.. It has increased because our pat­ rons always KNOW that we look after them; that we give the BEST OF SERVICE, and that they always get 2,000 POUNDS FOR EVERKTON THEY ORDER. Why not become one of our customers? Better still, why not PLACE YOUR ORDER NOW and SAVE SOME MONEY? . • Edmonds Ilant. but that, rueatted on waking, proved to be either ccnimonplaco ar wholly meadtagtaaa.

PAY — Has Genuine Quality To Back It Up When you buy flour for your family, why not exercise the same care that you would in buying shoes or clothing? There’s just as much difference in the QUALITY of flour as there is in any other commodity, depending entirely upon the kind of materials used, and the way in which it is made. Why riot inves­ tigate and get the BEST for your money? French’s White Lily Flour doesn’t cost you any more than ordinary brands of flour, but it 8 a whole lot BETTER, because we take a lot more pains in the manufacture of it. We go to a much greater expense making it. We put the grain through THREE TIMES as many sets of rolls as the ordinary mills use. Our process extracts every particle of "flour goodness’ from the wheat, and reduces the flour to a smooth, even granulation, so that it absorbs the water and yeast perfectly. That’s why bread, cakes and pastries made from French’s White Lily are always baked so even­ ly* When you use French's White Lily you Dr. A. W.

There is nothing healthier than good, pure, wholesome bread and butter. There’s Flour, that he will eat. It contains just the nothing better.

It has been demonstrated that WHAT WE If you arte not using French’s White Lily ARE, depends very largely upon the kind of Flour in your home, why not give it a thorough food we eat.

His bridge across tho Potomac waa consid­ ered a triumph of American engineer­ ing. The tunnel which he had driven across the Kill van Kull had been mado tho model for all such undertak­ ings In America and Europe. With all hip apcceas and wealUi bo was still desperately lonely. His suc^. cess had been tbo result ot native genius and application. To his per­ sonality the shy man owed nothing. And there had como to him a long­ ing to show himself before those who had jeered him and win their esteem. Ho 'did not long for any personal triumph over them. Ho thought of Nettle Haines, tho lit-, tie girl who bad lived across the street from him. They had been child­ hood sweethearts, and be had told her that one day ho would marry her. Doubtless she was married now and had long ago forgotten him. He thought of Saunders, who had dis­ missed him from tho grocery store; Boyco, tho undertaker, for whom ho had worked during ono long week. And ho went back. Ho registered at tho only hotel the village boosted and marffr himself known to Fiaxman. the proprietor. The man shook hands with him coldly enough. turr’s original Merritt,” ho said. "Mr. Boyco?

At | length ho became a frequent guest In tho home of Priscilla's parents In their country placb on Long Island.

Tom asked one night «s\ they sat at coffee before tho log ffro, I In the dimly lighted living room. "Is there anything you can’t do—any-, thing you are not interested in?" Priscilla laughed softly and studied tho black coffee in the tiny cup she held, "Why—yes. I suppose there are many things. I can’t do. For In- I stance, I can't vote." "And don't wan< to.

Thia ls4>nlj otic of the reasons why farmers should lest their cowa for quantity nnd quality > f product. Other reason:! for <•.-«-testing ore: It enables tho farmer to eliminate cow# that do not pay fur their board. It saves many a good cow from tho shambles. It Is an cncouragvr of good feeding and good care. It gives the farmer nn opportunity to build up n'good pruducthi herd. It increases one's imprest in dairy­ ing as u buslne.-<s rather than as a means ot labor merely. 1 •' In short, it Is plain v mmon sense.

MIDDLEVILLE Dairymen and Friends A Good Sewing Machine It is with great pride wexjuote you a few remarks from old patrons who are coming back to us after trying out other creameries in Barry County. One man says "We arc coming back to the Crystal Creamery ‘wiser’ and stronger than ever for your square deal." Another says, "If satisfactory io you we will send you our next batch of cream, we are ’wiser’ but not richer, but stronger than ever for your square deal.” ’ We have *a large number of just such remarks made , to our haulers, and many others come back without saying anything, but the fact that they COME BACK is proof .that our . square deal is good enough for them. Don't l>c misled or be talked info thinking that you can do so much better some where else, it’s a mistake.just as the above mentioned parties ' found it. Don't take our word for it, but just come and get the names of some of these men and have a talk with them. We .are willing to abide by their verdict, ay* with her mutter at Big Kaput*.

Earning And Saving Archibald Earning Money Will do You no Good Unless You Can Manage to Save Some of it. <Sin. arranged in a elrcle around this plat­ '----------- ~»v-- --5ncipal ehi^fa sod sagHaginaw Chititwivas If you want to be SUCCESSFUL you MUST SAVE YOUR MONEY. There is no "royal road to success." The great majority of those who attain it get there by steady-per sistent SAVING-a few dollars EVERY WEEK or EVERY MONTH. It happens very often that those who have fortunes left to them, or who make a large sum all at one time through speculation, are not able to HANG ONTO IT. They do not have the EXPERIENCE in financial matters to "manage" their money after they get it. >nvest in foolish schemes; they contract expensive habits; they do many things that separate them from their money,” and the first thing they know they are "broke.*’ They do not KNOW the VALUE of a dollar, because they have never had;to WORK and EARN and SAVE. IF they\had EARNED their own moiiey, and had SAVED it "A LITTLE AT A TIME, they would have acquired an EXPERIENCE that would have kept them out of many pit­ fallsJater. There is a certain experience in earning money, and SAVING it, that gives a man an idea of VALUES, because in saving money his mind unconsciously turns that way. When he invents he is very sure that he is getting 100 cents in VALUE for every dollar he invests, HE KNOWS the value of every dollar he in vests, because he EARNED it and he SAVED it. You take a man who has had to EARN and SAVE his own money, and there is a fellow ■ who is not going to invest in any "risky" ventures. He KNOWS too well, the VALUE of a dollar. He is the fellow on the lookout for GOOD SOUND VALUE at the RIGHT PRICE —and FINDS it. He knows a good investment when he sees it. But FIRST and FOREMOST above everything ejse is learning to SAVE, SAVE, SAVE. ~ It is the first essential to SUCCESS. Why not open a Savings Account with this Bank and start ‘on the road to Success. You can’t start any EARLIER. You ought not to delay longer.

But when you come to BUY it you don’t have to pay any more for it than you do for ordinary flour. This has led some people to wonder WHY we CAN and DO manufacture flour at a LESS EXPENSE than others. We are going to SHOW YOU. Before doing so,* we want you to thoroughly understand that in ALL mills, the COST of MANUFACTURING MUST BE ADDED to the COST OF MATERIALS, before a price can be made on the flour. For instance mills that operate by steam power MUST ADD the COST of fuel, oil, engineers salary, depreciation, repairs, etc. to the COST of the flour, or they would soon go “busted." If they use electric power and lights, they must ADD that expense. If they rent their mill they must ADD the cost of RENTAL. If they are doing busines on BORROWED MONEY they must ADD the INTEREST CHARGES. Then they must ADD the interest on the investment, taxes, insurance, bookkeeping and ALL OTHER GENERAL EX­ PENSES. These charges, all told will mount way up into the THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS EACH YEAR. They MUST be added to the COST of the grain, and on top of all this MUST be add­ ed a reasonable PROFIT. Here is where we have several great advantages, and a few of* the reasons WHY we can make BETTER FJLOUR at a LOWER MANU­ FACTURING COST we will point out to you. st, We Own Our Own Water Power and Electric Lighting Plant. Water power is tKe BEST power known; it’s the CHEAPEST power known; it’s the STEADIEST power known. We SAVE all fuel and light bills, all engineers salaries; all repair bills and all.depreciation. This of itself is no small saving. levllle By owning our own mill and the latest equipment of flour-making machinery we SAVE all rents, and with our new equipment we are able to produce a flour of more EVEN GRANULATION than it is possible for ordinary mills to produce. There isn’t a BETTER EQUIPPED flouring mill in the country than we have. We Run This Mill Night and Day 3rd,Year in and Year Out. I I I ' This enables us to MORE than cut our GENERAL EXPENSE IN TWO, because our general expenses, such as taxes, insurance, book­ keeping, power, lights, repairs, etc,, are no more for 24 hours than they would be for 6 or 8 hours, Then by running 24 hours each day is one reason why French’s White Lily Flour is ALWAYS so SMOOTH and EVEN in QUALITY. Flour making machinery cannot be run only a few hours each day, and do good work, because when it "cools off’’ it gets out of adjustment and it takes consider­ able time to get it readjusted. By running our mill 24 hours every day we never let our machinery get cold. While we SAVE a lot of money on the manufacturing end of the business, we put a lot of it back in BUILDING UP "QUALITY." We clean our grain better; we put our flour through 17 SETS OF ROLLS, while ordinary mills only have 4 to 6 sets. We make our ’ flour BE I TER in every way, but our economies in manufacture pay for it, just as we have pointed out in this advertisement. That's WHY French’s White Lily Flour is MADE BETTER than other flours, and why we can sell it for the same money, or LESS MONEY, than other flours. Why not put it to the test, and order a trial sack? Why not do it today? Every Girocer and Elevator has it. Michigan The natives nov6r fear an alligator If they can got a finger in each eye, aa It tben becomes quite lielplMH.

Suppose Your Home Had Been Destroyed Last Friday One of the worst cyclones that ever visited Michigan struck in the western part of the state last Friday and destroyed thousands^of dollars worth of property. No one could have foretold this event. The ‘owners of this destroyed property did not know they were to be in the path of this particular storm. Neither do you kriow when a similar storm will swoop down upon your locality and tear your building down, up-root your orchards and lay waste your fields and leave in their places scenes of desolation. Who Would Have Paid You for Your Loss? Have you planned for the protection of your buildings and other property? ’ WE CAN FURNISH YOU THE SECURITY FROM LOSS WHICH YOU NEED AND WHICH EVERY PROPERTY OWNER NEEDS. This Company was organized 30 YEARS AGO. It is the LARGEST, STRONGEST and OLDEST Insur­ ance Company of its kind in Michigan. It has OVER 60,000 MEMBERS and OVER $ 120,000,000.00 of insur­ ance IN FORCE. During its 30 years of existence it has made ONLY 6 ASSESSMENTS. The man who took out a $ 1,000 policy with us 30 YEARS AGO has only paid $ 10.00 to carry his policy for the full 30 YEARS—or only about 30 cents a year to carry a $ I .OOO policy. In all the annals of insurance you cannot find an equal to this record, and EVERY LOSS has been FULLY and PROMPTLY PAID. fall of a hit timber and saved several deeper* from death.

I Does Your Cemetery Lot I Look Like Either of These? WHAT A CONTRAST THERE IS BETWEEN THESE TWO— ' The one has every appearance of ne­ glect, those whose loved ones are lying there have evidently forgotten. The other , one shows that those who have departed were loved and their memories still cher­ ished. Every cemetery lot should show that de­ parted friends have not been forgotten. The lot can at least be.kept clean and flow­ ers upon the graves, and if a monument cannot be afforded, surely a neat marker can be provided which will express, in its humble way, the loving memory still cherished.

I Personal Attention :iniii.iii::»:«m The Farmer and The Trust i ; ; ; A direct appeal to the farmer. Will you patronize the independent dealer, the man who is working directly for your interests, and buy independent mowers and binders of an independent company like the Adriance-Platt Co., at an independent price, a price that is right, or will you continue to buy trust machines at trust prices? This is squarely -up to you. Remember Uncle Sam is spending hundreds of thousands of dollars to curb the Trusts. And he is asking you to furnish the money which you are doing now. For every trust machine you buy at Trust prices you are furnishing the Trust with money to fight Uncle Sam. So there you are between the devil and the deep blue sea.” You pay for fighting Uncle Sam’s battle because YOU HAVE TO. You pay for fighting the Tiusts battles because you WANT to. The Adriance-Platt Co. have been in the machine making business for nearly 60 years. This machine is made in Poughkeepsie, N. Y., with storage and transfer at Jackson, Mich., and can give you just as quick and good service as any trust company. See this mower at my store before you buy.

PI I'litM iuu Think About These Two Bank Ideas Hundreds of people are residing in almost every community who are not yet familiar with the advantages offered them by the banks of their home towns and cities. We believe this is true of Barry County. We believe there are many people in Hastings and Bar­ ry county'Who do not realize the advantages WE are OFFERING THEM by our maintaining and operating the STRONG, Accommo­ dating Institution which we do. That's why we are telling about these two departments o f our bank. Read what we say here and then think it over Commercial Department Savings Department Young men. young women and others, we wish to Urge you to start a Savings Account with us now. Do not put off any longer so important a matter as the beginning to save systematically—it ia SO EASY to procras­ tinate in this matter—but time goes on. A few dollars left with us will begin earning you something at once and by adding a few dollars now and then you will very soon have a neat sum of money accumulated for some future use or for -the expected rainy day which is sure, to come. Many a nice fortune has been started by the first small deposit of $t.oo and then by adding* to this beginning and having the interest compounded . semi-annually, the way we do at dur bank, the account has grown until the depositor has a goqd sum to invest in some payinf^jusiness; . Every dollar deposited in our savings department will earn you 3 per cent interest compounded semi-annually. □ n S'n n □ Every person who has bills to pay—(and who has not?) should have a commercial checking account with us and should pay all accounts by check. Paying accounts by check is the best possible way to make payments. Many an error has been prevented and many a loss saved by the use of a check instead of currency. If money is lost the finder if unscrupulous may use it, or the finder may never be able to discover the loser. If a check fop the same amount Is lost, the maker can be known by the signature and though the finder be unscrupuolus the maker of the check can cancel payment. There are many other conveniences in having an open checking account with us. Our advice is deposit your money with our strong bank and let us —furnHiryoirwtth one of ourneat llnle check hooks and ftom now on PAY by check. Keep your money where you know it is safe from burglars anji fire and protected by our $700,000 resources.

You may not be aware of it, but your farm is scattered over with worm infection. This is particularly true in the case of any pasture that has been used for two or three seasons, and has ever been pastured down close. These little germs are secreted down towards the roots of the grass, when the stock is browsing on this grass, the germs are taken into the stom­ achs of sheep, cattle or hogs. There the worms grow and thrive, and the first thing you know the stock commences to die off. If you dissect them you will find the intestinal canals full of worms. This is a practical fact that EVERY STOCK GROWER must go up against. The losses from this ONE CAUSE ALONE every year, will run way up into the millions. DR. HOLLAND’S MEDICATED STOCK SALT WILL PREVENT THIS LOSS It KILLS TfJE GERMS and keeps the intestinal tracts CLEAN and HEALTHY. It is a good deal EASIER to PREVENT disease than it is to CURE it. There is no reason why a bad condition shall be allowed to come, when the PREVENTION is within YOUR REACH. Dr. Holland’s MEDICATED stock salt is GUARANTEED to do just WHAT WE CLAIM for it, if fed according to our directions. And besides being a DISINFECTANT and purifier, Dr. Holland’s Medicated Stock Salt is a PRODUCER. Good wool, good milk, good pork, cannot be produced from UNHEALTHY STOCK. It is impossible. We sell Dr. Holland’s Medicated Stock Salt. We know from our own experience in growing stock just WHAT IT WILL DO. , .

Write, phone or call on FRE.NCH’3 WHITE FLOUR Dr. A. W. Woodbume If every reader of the BANNER could go through this mill; see how we clean our grain; and the pains we take in making flour, they Would all better appreciate WHY French’s White Lily Flour is so much BE TI ER than any other flour. They could then see HOW and WHY we produce flour of HIGHEST QUALITY, are able to sell it at no more than is charged for flour of greatly inferior quality. In the ordinary flour mill, the SOLE AIM is see HOW MUCH flour can be shoved through the rolls each day. In other words the whole idea is "QUANTITY"—and not quality. If you will stop find think about it for just a moment you can see that it HAS TO BE THAT WAY, or the “OVERHEAD EXPENSE" would make it an "unprofitable business." You take any miller that runs his mill only 6 or 8 or 10 hours each day, no matter whether he owns his mill or rents it, his “general expenses" are almost, as much as if he would run 24 hours a day,4 as this mill does. His rent, taxes, insuraneqf book-keeping, interest, and a host of other charges would be no more for 24 hours than for 4 hours. No man.wants to “do business for nothing.” So the sole ob­ ject of the operators of all flouring mills that run from 5 to 10 hours each day, is to RUSH JUST AS MUCH GRAIN THROUGH THE ROLLS AS IT IS POSSIBLE. They could nof afford tp take the pains in manufacturing that we do, because those “overhead expens­ es” would make it a “LOSING PROPOSITION" forthem. the ordinary mills, you see the grain passing That’s why, 3 or 4 sets of rolls, before it is put in sacks and callthrough only 2 In this mill you would see how the grain is clean­ ed ready for us ed better5; you would see the grain passing through 17 SETS OF ROLLS, each set doing its work o f grinding the heart of the wheat down a little finer and finer, until ■ at last it gets down to a smooth, even quality, where every particle of the flour is just the same bize as every other particle. Some millers may CLAIM that the flour they make is just as good as French’s White Lily Flour—but it IS NOT. By owning our own mill, water power, lighting plant, and RUNNING 24 HOURS A DAY YEAR IN AND YEAR OUT, we effect a great SAVING on “general expenses," as you can see. We put a .lot of this saving in adding to the QUALITY of French’s White Lily Flour. That’s why we sell you a BETTER FLOUR for the SAME MONEY. A trial sack will convince you that French’s White Lily Flour ig positively the greatest value on the market. No other flour com­ pares with it in QUALITY. It will help you CUT DOWN YOUR LIVING EXPENSES; it will guarantee you the BEST and most wholesome food for your family. Why not try a sack? Your Grocer or Elevator man has it. Michigan ring*.

If you are, you will want to take along some GOOD CIGARS, or perhapa a good pipe and tobacco. If there ia ever a time when you really enjoy a good smoke it is when you are out on a little vacation. You forget the cares of life, and submerge yourself in the joys of out-door living. Come here and get your Cigars and Tobaccos and YOU will agree with us that it MAKES A GREAT DIF­ FERENCE HOW THEY ARE KEPT. If Cigars and To­ baccos are kept where there is NO MOISTURE they will become just like so much tinder. If they are kept where there is TOO MUCH MOISTURE they become DAMP and SOGGY. We have a complete and expensive equipment of linelined, dust-proof cases in which we keep our stock. More than that an automatic electric Humidpre keeps the tem­ perature at just the RIGHT DEGREE. That’s WHY the Cigars and Tobaccos you buy here ALWAYS TASTE BETTER. It will only take one trial to CONVINCE YOU that you get BETTER VALUE for YOUR MONEY right here than you can anywhere else, in Barry County, be­ cause we have the BEST EQUIPMENT for KEEPING THEM RIGHT. z The Club Cigar Store “THE PLACE TO MEET YOUR FRIENDS" E.

Prepare for the Harvest A few reasons why the John Deere Binder is the best The John Deere Binder drive-wheel is one inch higher and has a one-inch wider tire than most others. It is a wheel of the suspension type with every spoke bearing its part of the load. Good materials are used. Finish of the bearing surfaces, both bushings and jour­ nals, provides for long continued use with minimum wear. It is useless to put a good roller bearing in a poorly-finished bushing because its draft-reducing qualities would be rapidly lost. The John Deere Binder is known as an exceedingly substantial, strong machine with very light draft. The unexcelled quality of material and the care taken in constructing the John Deere Binder Platform are without com­ parison in the binder manufacturing field. Positive action canvas tighteners are provided for all three canvases. Levers for operating them are in convenient position. Papsr Written Many Years Ago By Mrs. A. D.

We might put this extra profit in our pocket, but we believe in the old saying, “Live and Let Live.” Those four little words have made our busi­ ness what it is, and they will do more.

MICHIGAN IS’BEING VISITED THIS YEAR, IN MANY LOCAL 1TIES, AS IT IS EACH YEAR, AT THIS PARTICULAR SEASON, BY CY­ CLONES AND WINDSTORMS. NO ONE CAN DODGE A CYCLONE OR TORNADO. EVERY PIECE OF FARX PROPERTY IN THE PATH OF ONE OF THESE IS SURE TO BE DAMAGED OR ENTIRELY DESTROYED AND THE ONLY WAY TO PROTECT YOURSELF IS TO ■ / INSURE AGAINST THEM The Cost of Insurance In This Company Is So Small That No Property Owner Can Afford To Be With It. All that it COSTS YOU is a policy fee of $1.00 and an advance assess­ ment of 20 CENTS ON EACH $100 INSURED. A policy for $1,000 would therefore ONLY COST YOU $3.00, and if you meet with loss you will GET YOUR MONEY up to the face of your policy. This is the OLDEST, LARGEST and STRONGEST Windstorm Insur­ ance Company in Michigan, and one of the very largest and strongest in the world. We have been doing business for over 30 YEARS; we have paid out hundreds of thousands of dollars in LOSSES; and WE HAVE PAID EVERY LOSS FULLYx AND PROMPTLY. Back of EVERY POLICY is a membership of about 60,000, and an assessable capital of ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY MILLIONS OF DOLLARS. A policy in this company is therefore as SAFE and SOUND as a Government Bond. This company is growing faster today than ev­ er before, because people all over Michigan KNOW that it is most careful and conservative in its management and honorable in its settlements. That’s why we have grown from I 59 members and $163,710 insurance in 1885 to 60,000 members and $120,000,000 insurance in 1915. Pictures of the wrecked buildings caused by one of the storms that visited Michigan last year. They speak volumes. If the owners of these had been insured in our company we would have paid them for their loss. HON. WM. E. HALE. Pre,., Eaton Rapid*. Mich. HON. J. W. EWING. Vice Pre,.. Grand Ledge. Mich. D. W.

A direct appeal to the farmer. Will you patronize the indepen­ dent dealer, the man who is working directly for your interests, and buy independent mowers and binders of an independent company like the Adriance-Platt Co., at an independent price, a price that is right, or will you continue to buy trust machines at trust prices? This is squarely up to you. Remember Uncle Sam is spending hun­ dreds of thousands of dollars to curb the Trusts. And he is asking you to furnish the money which you are doing now. For every trust machine you buy at Trust prices you are furnishing the Trust with money to fight Uncle Sam. So there you are between “the devil and the deep blue sea.’’ You pay for fighting Uncle Sam’s battle be­ cause YOU HAVE TO. You pay for fighting the Trusts battles because you WANT to. The Adriance-Platt Co. have been in the machine making busi­ ness for- nearly^O years. This machine is made iri Poughkeepsie, N, Y., with storage and transfer at Jackson, Mich., and can give you just as quick and good service as any trust company. See this mower at my store before you buy.

We believe this is true of Barry County. We believe there are many people in Hastings and Bar­ ry county who do not realize the advantages WE are OFFERING THEM by our maintaining and operating the STRONG, Accommo­ dating Institution which we do. That’s why we are telling about these two departments of our bank. Read what we say here and then think it over. Savings Department Commercial Department Young meii, young women and others, we wish to urge you to start a Savings Account with us now. Do not put off any longer so important a matter as the beginning to save systematically—it is SO EASY to procras­ tinate in this matter—but time goes on. Every person who has bills to pay—(and who has not?) should have a commercial checking account with us and should pay all accounts by check. A few dollars left with us will begin earning you something at once and by adding a few dollars now and then you will very soon have a neat sum of money accumulated for some future use or for the expected rainy day which.is sure to come. • Many a nice fortune has been started by the first small deposit of $1.00 and then by adding to this beginning and having the interest compounded semi-annually, the w^y we do at our bank, the account has grown until the depositor has a good-sum to invest in some paying business. Every dollar deposited in our savings department will earn you 3 per cent interest compounded semi-annually. □□ □ ■■ n n n Paying accounts by check is the best possible way to make payments. Many an error has been prevented and many a loss saved by the use of a check instead of currency. If money is lost the| finder if unscrupulous may use it, or the finder may never be able to discover the loser. If a check for ithe same-amount is lost, the maker can be known by the signature and though the finder be unscrupuolus the maker of the check can cancel payment. There are many other conveniences in having an open checking account with us. Our advice is deposit your money with our strong bank and let us furnish you with one of our neat litt|e check books and from now on PAY by check. Keep your money where you know it is safe from burglars and-fire and protected by our $700,000 resources. HASTINGS CITY BANK HASTINGS, MICHIGAN NO LEAGUE BALL FOG HASTINGSJUSTNOW FANS EXPRESSED THEM SELVES BY ABSENCE AT THURSDAY'S MEETING OBJECT DESIRABLE, BUT IMPRACTICABLE NOW Extra Expense During Poor Year For Base Ball Is Principal Reason. Hastings is ftyt ready for league boll. Tho discouraging lark of attend­ ance’the public meeting called for consideration of thc project on Thors day evening, was in itself an eloquent expression of the general opinion of the proposition. The citizens and fans of Hastings are ready at any time to have n tram in the lengues—they would be glad to have one in thc American Icagne/or in the Central league, or in a new league. They do not, however, serin to want u team in n new league this season*for the same reason thnt they do not want one in thr American league—lack of funds. The project of playing one league game at home and. one out of town, waa favorably considered. but when tho plan of playing two league games at home and two away and of forming a six team league wns broached thr whole matter assumed another angle that waa not ao favorably regarded. Attendance thia year in Hastings has been discouragingly small. This, how­ ever, holds true tn other town* and in many of the smaller league* whieh are kept artr>af*i»nly by the moat vigorous working of the financial pump handle. Hnlariea of ball players are lower, and there ia a likelihood that the srasatM of the major leagues will be shortened. Thc state is full of excellent player* set adrift by the disbanded league wail team*—notably the Michigan Htate league which went on thc rocks last season. ..HastIngs would be proud to have a team in n league, but thc fans wpuld not be proud of having a good inde[wndeiil patronage spoiled by entering u league and afterwards killing base ball spirit by thc humiliation of the remembrance that such an cxiwriuicnt failed. It has been argued that the city would be given morn advertising if the town were in a league. Thia might bo true if such a team were in the Central or in one of the major leaches. The independent teams of Hastings during the last eight years have given Hast­ ings a wider reputation than would have been given by a team in one of thr minor state leagues. The obligation of hiring professional playera would rut out employing the amatucra and clean-cut, young eollegiana who have, made the Hastings' team* sueh favorites, or compel them— if they were of a certain type of ath- WOMEN i Women of the highest type, women of superior education and refinement, whose discernment and judgment give weight and force to their opinions, highly praise the won­ derful corrective and curative propertie* of Chamberlain’s Stomach and Liver Tablets Throughout the many atagea of woman’s life, from girlhood, through the ordeals of motherhood to the declining years, there is no safer or more reliable medicine for stomach trouble* and constipation.

The ^roungstrra could, it ia true, be sold in thc banc boll market for good sums—providing they were willing to go farther up and providing thr team were fortunate enough to develop such players. And-right here it ia safe -to say that aomp of tho beat players ev­ er seen with Hastings during the Inat few rears would never have plaved iti Hasting* if they had Keen compelled to sign a contract to play with the minu­ test of the minor team*. It will . be remembered that a number of the ln*»t players refused urgrnt appeals to fdnv in the Michigan State and other small leagues, saying thnt they preferred in­ dependent ball if they were not cap­ able of holding positions in leagues better thau those.

The time for or­ ganizing a league seemed ripe. That league m now in the graveyard and is remembered with disappointment by fans in ail of the towns. They gave up independent ball for the sake’of thc advertising thc towns 'might get by being represented in a "league" and now they .have -no independent teams worth mentioning, if any at al). Hastings business men want It-ague ball, but they "want It"when there ia no risk of failure and of ajioiling the base ball spirit already existing. out. and it must be irnrne in mind that sometimes those enterprises that yield small labor income may be very neces­ sary to the farm economy.

Many from this cYtv went, to Grand Rapids Friday to see the Detroit Amer­ ican Maguc base >>all team cross bats with the Grand Rapids Central lingua It waa quite an interesting game to watch. The Grand Rapids team should have non the game by a score of .1 to 2. but in the last half of the ninth in­ ning with Detroit at bat, and two turn out and two on bases the LMroit bat­ ter hit an easy fly out info left field. Everybody though’: thr game waa over and many started to leave, but the left fielder fur Grand Rapids "muffed" tho fall. The two Detroit runners scored nnd thc game was won—all on account uf that muff. But it ia the uncertain­ tv uf the game thql makes it the great American sport. Detroit won th<f game by a score of 6 tu 4. Ty Cobb, the famous center fielder of the Detroit team anil reeogniied as the greatest ball player in the world, waa naturally the center of interest. Ty gels a salary of *15,000 far playing about 150 game* a year, or an average of about *100 per game. As eaeh game wouldn't average over 100 minutes, that means that he get* about *1.00 p.-r minute for actual playing time, all -of which goes to show that it pays to bo a "top noteher” ia any line.

That | will be a fair test of the flour, and it will SHOW YOU that your bread de­ , pends a whole lot upon the QUALJTY of the flour you use. Every housewife KNOWS that there is a big difference in flour. She knows that certain brands of flour will make good bread one time, and poor bread the next. On the other hand she knows that French’s White Lily Flour makes the best bread EVERY TIME. With French’s White Lily she knows that if she uses about the same amount of flour each time; prepares it in about the same way, and bakes it with about the same degree of heat, that she will ALWAYS have nice, white, delicious bread, that it is always a j delight to eat. Where is the difference in these two kinds of flours? One kind may LOOK just as good as the other: Tn. fact the poor kind of flour may look‘better than the other. You.take a sample of eiieh in your hand and you would j say that ono kind is just as good as the other. Let your wife make several batches of bread from each one of these '■! flours and you will find that there is a “big difference.” That’s why we like j to have the housewife bake a batch of bread from French’s White Lily i Flour, and a batch made from ANY other brand of flour that is CLAIMED to be “just as good.** ‘ Mix the dough in the same way with each kind, and i French’s White Lily Flour is BETTER than any other flour made be­ cause we clean our wheat better, we have special patented machinery that removes all the “cockle” and broken kernels of grain; we have special ma­ chinery that polishes the wheat, taking off all the “dirt” and “fuzz.” All this cockle, broken grain, dirt and fuzz is “ground” with the wheat in ordin­ ary mills and is mixed up with the flouHt makes. And when it comes to equipment we have the BEST that money can buy. You will find that French’s White Lily Flour is of “even granulation,” and every particle of the flour is of the same size as every other particle. For that reason it absorbs the yeast and moisture EVENLY, and for that reason it BAKES EVENLY. With the ordinary flour that is “lumpy” and “uneven” in QUALITY the bread will be uneven. Why not try French’s White Lily Flour your next order? .

Prepare for the Harvest The John Deere Binder drive-wheel is one inch higher and has a one-inch wider tire than most others. It is a wheel of the Mfpension type with every spoke bearing ita part of the load. Good materials are used. Finish of the bearing surfaces, both bushings and jour­ nals, provides for long continued use with minimum wear. It is useless to put a good roller bearing in a poorly-finished bushing because its draft-reducing qualities would be rapidly lost. The John Deere Binder is known as an exceedingly substantial, strong machine with very light draft. The unexcelled quality of material and the care taken in constructing the John Deere Binder Platform are without com­ parison in the binder manufacturing field. Positive action canvas tighteners are provided for all three canvases. Levers for operating them are in convenient position. These tighteners not only keep the can­ vas tight, but t they alsp keep it running true.. This is of special importance on the platform canvas which has a tendency to shrink at the front end when cutting damp grain, or early in the morning ana late in the evening when the deW is on. Move­ ment of the rollers is always even and par­ allel. i A binder attachment must be positive and prompt in action, and most operate without shock or strain. The features have been ingenuously worked out on the John Deere Binder drive. These are only a few of the pleasing and valuable features ?f the'John Deert. We are glad to show you the rest of them. It will cost you nothing to have our represen­ tative explain fully. We not only want you to like the John Deere Binder, but we want you to feel the need of a John Deere. Phone us for information.

If they can sell all the goods they can manufacture, the high cost will be easily lowered. Just so with us. For the past several weeks we have been run­ ning close to our capacity, our expenses are very little more than before, hence the high price we are paying our patrons. We might put. this extra pfofil in our pocket, but we believe in the old saying, "Live and Let Live." Those four little words have made our busi­ ness what it is, and they will do more. We.have at the present time over 1,000 active patrons and more coming on every day. . If you are not satisfied where you are, see one of our haulers, or belter yet. bring us your next can of cream and see it tested. The wait will be short, and satisfactory we are sure.

MILLIONS OF DOLLARS WORTH OF PROPERTY IS DESTROYED EVERY YEAR IN MICHIGAN BY TERRIBLE WINDSTORMS, TORNADOES AND CYCLONES If You Lost Your Property that Way Wouldn’t it be Nice to Have Someone Pay You Back Your Loss? There is no locality or section of the state That is exempt from the visits of these awful destroyers. They are just as apt to sweep down into the valleys, as one did last year, when it thundered down into the valley of the Grand River and completely wiped out the little town of Petrleville, in Eaton; County. which nestled on its banks. The people of that little town thought that because they were located in a valley and had never been visited by a Cyclone that they never would Be harmed, and that if a cyclone should come it would "jump over them." For that reason not a single person there carried a cent of insurance against Cy­ clones and Windstorms. But EVERY BUILDING in the little town was COMPLETELY WRECKED. Cyclones absolutely know no law, and really seem to take special delight in violating all human probability. No locality is immune from their visits. ' 11 would co^l you but very little to. heve us carry the risk on your property and then if a Tornado or Windstorm visits your locality, as it is very liable to do, your interests are protected. ‘ This is a period when these terrible Demons of Destruction are getting in their work and your home may be next. It is a wise man who provides against loss from this source. ' . We are backed by over 60,900 members and an assessable property valuation of over $iao,000.000.

If vacation time finds you run down, physically and mentally, you may be sure that body, brain and netves have not been properly rebuilt day by day with the right kind of food. ' One of the greatest evils of the American civilization is that terrible waste that is constantly going on every where. In many instances our National Government is putting a stop to wast­ ing. Conservation of our Natural Resources—has been a cry now for several years, until today we are trying to save what we have of iron, lumber, coal, etc. The individual should take a lesson from this—stop the waste and for both work *ind play One should all the year 'rou Grape-Nuts the original pioneers.

All of those vital mineral salts found under the outer coat of the grain, so necessary to repairing the wear and tear of work or play, are retained in Grape-Nuts. Grape-Nuts has delicious flavour and has proven itself a mighty rebuilder of brain and brawn— Begin Saving Today The saving period of life is always during the producing period and it is then a systematic laying aside should be carried on and one of the easiest ways to do this is to STOP THE WASTE and open a sav­ ings account with us at once.

There is more of it used than all the other flours combined. There must be a reason for this. The great majority of people in this county would not be using French’s White Lily Flour unless they KNEW IT WAS THE BEST. They are doing just what every one else is seeking to do and that is GET THE BEST FOR THEIR MONEY. The people who are using French’s White Lily Flour have used other flours and chos­ en French’s White Lily Flour to use ALL THE TIME because it was found to be the BEST FLOUR ON THE MARKET. x It is also the CLEANEST flour on the market because all the grain is washed and polished; all cockle, broken kernels and foul stuff are taken out by special patented machines, which is not done in other mills. Therefore you get all this stuff in the flour those other mills make. As the result of over 40 years of successful experience and the most modern equipment of machinery, French’s White ,Lily Flour has a rich, nutty flavor all its own.Try it the next time. We would not ask or expect you to buy French’s White Lily.Flour just because it is made in Barry County, or because we use MORE Barry County wheat than any other concern in the county., When you buy flour we expect you to buy on MERIT alone. But when it comes to REAL MERIT we will be glad to have you investigate closely.

In many instances our National Government is putting a stop to wast­ ing. Conservation of our Natural Resources—has been a cry now for several years, until today we are trying to save what we have of iron, lumber, coal, etc. The individual should take a lesson from this—stop the waste and Begin Saving Today The saving period of life is always during the producing period and it is then a systematic laying aside should be carried on and one of the easiest ways to do this is to STOP THE WASTE and open a sav­ ings account with us at once.

Save Money On Fertilizer No land in Barrv County or Michigan, can stind continuous "cropping" without DESTROYING its Kjftjlity. Every BUSHEL of grain that you raise and sell from your farm TAKES AWAY just so much fertility. Some lands can stand "cropping" better than others, but in a few year# the BEST of land in this county, or state will decrease ig fertility and eventually become ••worthless” from a producing standpoint. Wo Can Eave You Some Money Since the European War the importation of Fertilizers has stopped and the price is going higher every week. . But WE ARE IN POSITION TO FURNISH YOU FERTILIZER AT THE OLD PRICE. You should buy now before we ad­ vance the price aa we shall be obliged to do when we are compelled to restock. Your Land Needs Fertilizer USE HOMESTEAD FERTILIZERS. They “put back" into the land the very element you “draw out” .^hen you take off a crop of grain. Homestead Bone Black Fertilizer is made chiefly of BONE and BLOOD. Tn each ton of it there Ifi a FULL 900 POUNDS OF PURE GROUND BONE. It is more than a stimulant to the land, and its benefits can be no­ ticed for several years. That is WHY it is BETTER for your land than chemical fertilizers, which Are. useful only for ONE TEAR. In farming operations we used a great deal of Homestead Fertilizers. They gave by far the beat results of any of the many kinds we tried. That's why We secured the Agency for them when we went into the Elevator business. WE KNOW WHAT THEY WILL DO. We know that everyone who uses them will be pleased—and that’s the kind of article we well. Phone us at once or see us about getting what you need now before OUR prices on Fertilizers advance.

The difficulty with the. whole public school system is the entire absence of individual responsibility.

It is the result of the “system.” This Is All Wrong C. J. ARGUBRIGni. oullntll Expert NOW GET THIS— Now do you believe that? Why, of course you don’t. Then why should you continue the training of your boy or your girl according to a “system” that your own good common sense tells you is absolutely wrong? Why will parents continue the educa­ tion of their boys and girls along a given line when they know that they are not learning to be useful citizens, and that they must soon go out in the world to earn their own bread and butter, absolutely unprepared for the battles before them, and with a good chance of becoming criminals? .

Any school that is worthy of being called a school should teach young people how to live and how to work as well as how to read and how to write—it should teach personal, individual responsibility—It should teach manhood—it should teach womajnhood—it should teach character—it should be a process of development. ‘ The public school "system" says that every boy and every girl is just like every other boy and every other girl. The public school "system” says that what is good for ope (and by “public schools." I mean universities, colleges, etc.,- as well as the elementary schools) is good for the other. They tell you that every human being is just like every other human be ing. and should be trained in identically the same way. BUTTON FACTORIES BUY THE CLAM SHELLS Several pearls found in clams in the Thornapple river have been sold to F. R. Pancoast of this eity. These pcailt, while not of ths highast value, ware well worth marketing. So soon as the waters in the streams are lower, the fishermen will try their luck oftener. No one, however, should make lhe mistake of gathering elams and mollusks without securing a license which cost's 81.00 for a resident of this state aud f'dl.OO for a non-resident. The law prohibits taking pearls, elams and mollusks from the waters of this state between March 31 and July 1. Searching for pearls and gathering clams and mollusk shells for sale to button factories, hia become an exten­ sive occupation on the larger rivers of thin stac. Clam fishermen have oper­ ated along the Grand River for- n number of yearn. Some of them work along the Thornapple river as far as the LnBarge dam. The clams in lakes am nut sought, u few of theni.h'avc |>earls, oven of inferior quality. Fishing for pearls is something like prosjH^ing for gold. The searcher la always looking fur tho little shining l>e)let, which will bring him hundreds of dollars. Until ho makes a "strike* uf that kind, he must content himself with days of fruitless labor, or with some pearls of little commercial ualue. Il goes without saying that any one engaged in such business must be an optimist uf tho firmest type. He may open a thousand sheila before he finds a single pearl, but if ho is also collecting shells for sale by th? ton to button factories, his work will bring him some reward. In order to obtain any real financial reward, it is necessary for the fisher­ men to provide themselves with a camping outfit, a broad flat-bottomed boat and the proper equipment. They vamp out, but they do nut enjoy the care-free life of the ordinary camper, who goes out for a vacation. They are bitten by misquitoes while »t. w^rit nnd in order not to lose their day’s labor, they nre compelled Io work dur­ ing the rains. Heavy rains also raise the rivers and make the water so mud­ dy that it is impossible to carry on the work. Luek and luck alone governs the success of the pearldiunter. No skill is necessary for this work. Any one who knows enough to sit on a river­ bank and pry mussel-shells open with a knife and take out tho pearl, if there is any, ia qualified to seek treas­ ures of this kifld. There are 500 kinds of fresh-water mussels, which bepr pearls. There is nothing to indicate whether oqfnot the shell contains a pearl. The riUU must be opened and the organism which lives in it removed. This is, there fore, a very wasteful occupation, un­ less tho shells are sold. As many fresh-water pearls are ex­ ported, the demand has been cut off by the war and prices will not be so high this yepr. ' . I TINGS BANNER OF JULY 23, 1885 FRESH IM PEIS ■ESKlS.e.e III the ■nipple PAGE ELEVEN PERSONAL ANALYSIS More than twenty years ago I contended that every human being was qualified for some special work in life. Some are financiers, some are machinists, some arc preachers, some are educators. Some will be good accountants, some will be good secretaries, sotqe good purchasing agents, some good sales man­ agers—and ,do you know that every characteristic of every young person is plain, perfectly plain, to the one skilled in character analysis. Probably the great­ est service that this institution has to offer is directing your boy and your girl in the right way. This has been my work for many, many years. My friends have been Kind enough to say that I have been singularly successful. This institution develops men, it develop* women. I know the needs of your boy. I know the needs of your girl. You know and I know they are not alike. You know that your boy is not like any other boy that ever lived. You know that your girl is not like any other girl that ever lived. You sometimes wonder how even brothers and sisters can be so radically different, different in temperament, different in tastes—different in desires—different in ambitions. You know all this to be true. Then why train them all for exactly the same thing ? When you come to think about it, isn’t it just rubbish ? Now I take your boy and develop him along the lines that he should go. If I find that he is going to be a good farmer, Vwill give him a practical, all­ round education and I will make him a successful farmer. If it is his ambition and desire to study medicine, and that 4s Jiis “forte," he certainly should have my training. And my training will help him just as it is helping hundreds of other young men who are attending universities and institutions of higher learning to get that equipment which is necessary to success. I have developed many young- men into practical lawyers, well equipped. Many of “my boys are Purchasing Agents, Sales Managers, Chief Accountants, Factory Superintendents, Mechanical Engineers, Civil Engineers, some are preachers, many are teachers and THEY ARE ALL SUCCESSFUL The development of each and every individual should be brought out and encouraged according to the individual needs, mental capacity, and physical ability of that boy or that girl. The class system of instruction, a stuffing process, never did and never will develop individuality. It never did and nev­ er will develop men. It never did and never will develop women. Trained Young Men Earn Big Money Many mothers are calling to see me every day and arranging for THEIR boys to begin work with us. I want To do for your bojrwhat I have done for hundreds of others. My experience dates over many years. I have developed and educated more than five thousand young men and young women. I have placed them where opportunity awaited them. When Earl R. Finley came to this institution a few years ago from a farm near Battle Creek, little did he presume that today he would have charge of a branch house for the Buick Motor Company. He is located today at Spokane, Washington. Last year he sold four hundred Buick automobiles. Whcn/Clyde Marshall came to this institution a stripling lad, he had no idea of becoming the world’s fastest shorthand writer. Acting upon my advice he specialized ,in stenography. Today he is Official Stenographer. ’New York Supreme Court, Kings County. Brooklyn, New York. His address is 2,033 Caton Avenue. His salary is more than five thousand dollars a year’ When Roy Nyman entered this institution from a small country town, he scarcely expected to hold the fine executive posi­ tion that he now has in the Traffic Department of one of the greatest railway systems of America. He followed my advic* and specialized in transportation. Frank Upton, Chief Controlling Accountant with Dodge Brothers, at Detroit, is another example of what I can do. Walter Haiighey, is today special representative for the Buick Motor Company and sells automobiles in trainload lota. He says in a recent letter; "What Mr. Argubright has done for me, he can do and will do for any other young man who will go about it and follow the instructions given." A. D. Beach is now special representative for the Firestone Tire and Rubber Company. Mr. Beach graduated from here less than five years ago. I directed his efforts and told him what to do. In a recent letter he says this: "I consider your institu­ tion the greatest school I have ever known. Each day brings me something that proves the truth of this statement." Can you think of anything more satisfactory in the way of progress than these few illustrations, gathered at random, or do you know of any other school or institution where your boy will be so well fitted to climb the ladder of success?” This advertisement way prepared on the nineteenth day of July, 1915. Since January 1, this year we have received 151 calls for our boys and girls to go out to high-grade business positions. During the same length of time we have furnished employment to 95 young men and young women. Each one has been plac­ ed in the position for which he or she is best fitted. Each one has been placed where the best possible service will be rendered. . • NOW REMEMBER THIS— Your boy is not like any othej boy. He cannot be trained like any other boy. It is my business to find the thing for which he is best .fitted. It is my business to find the work that he can do best. I want to make him the biggest man that it is possible for him to be. The world needs him. If he has the quali­ ties of a good purchasing agent, I want to make him a purchasing agent. If he has the qualities that spell success as a lawyer, I want to train him alqng those lines. If he has sales ability, or advertising ability, or is a manager, or a financier, I will find it out and direct him properly. Will you let me develop YOUR BOY for just that work which he can do best? . EVERY MOTHER IS INDIVIDUALLY AND PERSONALLY RESPONSIBLE FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF HER CHILDREN YOUR BOY’S FUTURE RESTS ABSOLUTELY WITH YOU, AND WHETHER YOU WANT TO OR NOT, YOU CANT DODGE THE ISSUE. I am at my office from 8 to 11:4s in the morning and from 1 to 5 in the aftemooh. A letter or a postal will bring you the details of a wonderful school. Michigan Business and Normal College C. J.

It is Ordered, That th. 90th day of Depends Upon the Kind of FLOUR You Use With French’s White Lily Flour there is LUCK"—not if the same care and attention preparing and baking the loaves. such thini given 3 ‘‘BA.D time in French’s White Lily Flour is always made “JUST THE SAME WAY.” Every kernel of wheat has to go through exactly the SAME PROCESS that every other kernel does, and practically every particle of flour has to "pass inspection" after having passed through I 7 different sets of rolls. We leave nothing to chance, be­ cause we appreciate that French’s White Lily Flour has a reputa­ tion to sustain. For that reason every sack of French’s White Lily you buy is just like the last sack you bought, and will give ’ same excellent satisfaction when you come tp bake with it. French’s White Lily Flour is different from flour made in the ordi­ nary mills. In the ordinary mills the whole theory is to RUSH the wheat through the rolls just as rapidly as possible in order to get a large PRODUCTION. As ordinary mills only have from three to five sets of rolls, no effort can be made to get the flour down to an even uniform QUALITY. For that reason, when you use that kind of flour, your bakings will vary in QUALITY just exactly as the flour varies in QUALITY. If you happen to be lucky and get a sack of flour of fairly good quality, you will have some good bakings. of the said deceased in the real Mt ate therein drssribed at private sale.

It’s a funny thing, but you still sometimes hear women folks talk about ‘GOOD LUCK" and "BAD LUCK” in baking. Michigan On the other hand, if you get hold of a poor sack your bakings will be poor. . ' . The great difference in the QUALITY of bakings would be im­ possible if/a flour of GUARANTEED UNIFORM QUALITY, like French’s White Lily, would be used. There; is certainly a REASON for everything. There is never an EFFECT without a CAUSE. The cause of poor bakings is POOR FLOUR—the QUALITY isn’t smooth and even. Bakings pre­ pared in the same way every time, baked in the same oven, of prac­ tically the same degree of temperature should always be about the same. If they are not, there’s a REASON for it, and the reason is the VARYING QUALITY OF THE FLOUR USED, and in no way the fault of the one doing the baking. You can’t make good bread out of poor flour, any more than you can make good sauce out of poor fruit. We have spent over 40 years in doing nothing else than making French’s White Lily Flour.- We have a mechanical lanical equipment are- „ especially favored in second to none in the country. -------r _ owning . our own water power, the best power known for making, flour, be­ cause it is always steady and uniform. , If-you have baking troubles, French’s White Lily Flour will cure them.

Worth Remembering, every time, but if you will save all light brown wrapping paper which comes from the store and use this, you will have but little trouble. nosssiftdd Hints From Hera and There. In ctghlsg bard butter into even slices or tiny squares fold a piece of waxed paper over the blade of the kaifs used. la this way a smooth eut may be made without breaking or crumbling the butter. A piece of the paper which comes around tho butter may be used for this purpose. When covering an ironing board make it on the principle of a pillow slim making it the shape of the boaro ana vary tight to prevent wrinkling. It ia a good plan to have several uf these covers, so they eaa bo frequently changed *ad laundered. After ironing linen, place it near a good ire or in the heat of the sun until perfectly dry, as the garments will then be madf stiffer than if al' lowed to dry slowly. If the linen is a bit scorched, wet it with cold wa­ ter and hang it in the sun. An excellent thing for the laundry is the following mixture: ' Take two ounces of fine white gum-arabie pow­ der, put it in a pitcher, and pour on a pint of boiling water: cover tight, end let it stand over night. In the meningjrtraiu, bottle, and cork. A tab!*•|xx>nfulof this stirred into a pint cf starch made in the usual way will gice a new look to ths clothes. To rid n place of red ants, grease a plate with lard, and aot.it over night where the ants are troublesome. I’laea three or. four sticks leading up to the plate, so that they ean got to it easily. In the morning the plate will be cover­ ed with the ants. They may be killee by immersing the plate io hot water. To keep an egg several days while using it for coffee, use an egg cup with the small end up. Het the egg in tho cup and break a small bole in it. Use a little of the egg at a time, aa a little will dear the coffee as well a* half an egg. An egg may ba kept good three or four days in this way. QUIMBY. By Edmonds ah<l wife and Chas.

ARGUBRIGHT, Business Expert As we go down Broadway, New York, we look at the Wolworth Building, a giant even in a city of structural master-pieces. We are impressed with its mag­ nitude— from the street level to the top of this building is 780 feet— But there are 130 feet unseen, unappreciated by the tens of thousands who view this magnificent building— It Is the Foundation Everything of enduring quality must have a deep, solid foundation. It is this 130 feet below the ground of the Wolworth building which en­ ables that part above the ground to stand upright, true to the plumb line. In Man Building As in building structures of steel and brick, the foundation must be solid; otherwise the work will be of little value. The successful architect is the one who pay* the most careful attention to the foundation on which the building is to stand. In MAN BUILDING too much attention cannot be given to the foun­ dation. First, we must know what kind of a man we want io build. WE MUST HAVE AN IDEAL. UNLESS WE KNOW WHAT WE WANT TO AC­ COMPLISH, UNLESS WE HAVE A FIXED PURPOSE. WE WILL NEVER ARRIVE AT A DESTINATION. And let me say this, the best laid plans and most energetic action may not bring you to the goal of suc­ cess—many brainy men have failed—many worthy, energetic men have failed—simply because they were not properly directed in the right channel. . There are some fellows that we can't do anything for. They are the self-satisfied chaps, there are a lot of them in the world. They don't care a rap about MAN BUILDING.-because they are pleased with them­ selves as they are—they believe they have mastered all the problems of life—and because the boss don't fire them, they just come to the conclusion that they are the only real things around the works. Most of such fellows are seeking the easy tasks—looking for the easy way to do things, but the time is coming in the life of each of these, when he is going to get the bumps—when the wind is going to blow—and hell find that his house is built upon the sand* Mothers and Fathers What kind of a man are you building in that boy of yours? What kind of a foundation are you lay­ ing for his future? Are you getting down to bed rock? Are you training him to be a broad-minded, cap­ able, earnest, sincere, dependable man—directed in the right way— Or are you letting him drift, a* hundreds, yea, thousands of other young men are drifting? Out of a high school class of NINETY-FOUR less than one-tenth had any purpose in life at the time of graduation. None knew anything of what they we re fitted for. They knew nothing of what they wanted to do, and were not trained for any specific task. OI course they had the material for a foundation, but they knew nothing of the foundation they wanted to build, because they knew nothing of the kind of a structure they wanted to put on it. ' . Personal Analysis For more than twenty years scientific analysis of human character has been my hobby. In this 1 have been twenty years ahead of the times. They told me I was a dreamer—"nothing to it”—but today business firms are paying tens of thousands of dollars annually to find out which of theif emoloyees are best fitted for certain duties. ' Square pegs will never fit round' holes Never will good buyers make good salesmen. Good accountants are not necessarily good managers. Because a man can tell red from green is nd sign that he will make a good locomotive engineer. It is my business to analyze the character, the habits, and the desires of each and everyone who enters this school and find the thing for which he or she is best fitted. I study each one for they are not at all alike. Your boy may have the qualities of a great financier. He may be a factory superintendent, perhaps a great lawyer, maybe a civil engineer, possibly an expert shorthand writer, or maybe a day laborer, /feut what­ ever he is in life, he'ought to do the thing for which he is best fitted, and if he does that, his reward will be far greater thafi if he does something for which he is not and never will be qualified. My business-iu to find that which he can do best. Experts have said that I am singularly successful in my choice and the fact that Since January 1, 1915, We Have Received One Hundred and Fifty-nine Calls For our young men and young women to go out to good business positions is abundant testimony that business firms have faith in my judgment. During the same period of time, I have placed ninety-seven young men arid young women in the positions that they are best fitted to fill. I have advised many others as to just what they ought to do to bring out the best there is in them. \ An Appeal To the Energetic Are you the young man or woman who is anxious to make a success in life? Are you one who wishes to be a success, to associate with men who are a success in life? Are you one who is willing to work with the brain, and earn the rich rewards that the brain worker receives, or are you one of those who are willing to let well enough alone? This school has no room for the unambitious,—the laggard. Yet it is vitally interested in those who are willing and anxi­ ous to make a success of their lives. We appeal to the energetic only. We arc glad to meet such young people at any time. We are glad to have them call and see our school, to learn what we have done, and wjiat we are doing in the business World. We invite you to call at the school just for a visit, for a heart to’ heart talk. Or. if you cannot call, please write for Our booklet which tells all about our school and of the wonderful possibilities the business world offers to young men and women who are trained to do its work. Do not feel that you are in any way obligated by asking for information.

Tije principal factors that are con­ sidered la determining the quality of butter are: Flavor, texture, color,' salt, general appearance of package. To a few people all butter ia .very much alike. To' the cultivated taste nnd tbo experienced judge there are a great many flavors found in butter, prominent among which are tho fol­ lowing: Flat, rancid, cheesy, weedy, acid and stable flavors. Chumtag tho unripened cream pro­ duces the flat flavor; ago has tho ten­ dency to produce a rancid flavor; un­ salted butter develops a cheesy flavor; the cause of the weedy flavor ia ob­ vious, tho remedy for which is to ex­ terminate the objectionable weeds from tho pasture and feed silage, kale, turnips ahd tho like only Immediately after milking. Overripened cream that has been hold at too low a tem­ perature is found to prpducc the acid or bitter flavor; milking from unclean udders and In filthy and unsanitary stables are the chief sources nf what Is known as the stable flavor in butter.

No man, or no company of men can build up a high class repu­ tation on any article made, unless that article has “QUALITY" be­ hind it. If French’s White Lily Flour had varied in quality, if it had been good one time, and poor the next time, people would not have wanted it, would not have continued to use it, and it NEVER could have built up the splendid reputation it now enjoys. The fact that it has WON its honors in face of the very keenest competition is evident proof of its ALWAYS BEING THE SAME every time it is used. Anything that simplifies matters in the household LIGHTENS WOMAN'S WORK, and everyone knows that she has plenty to do, without having "baking troubles" added to others. When the housewife KNOWS that she can take just—so much of French’s White Lily flour, mix it with the proper ingredients, and make just so many loaves of the BEST BREAD, that means that HER WORK IS LIGHTENED. SHE does her work EASIER and BET­ TER because she is relieved of all worry about "baking troubles" —and the "worry” over bakings really do more to break down the housewife than all the labor involved. Reputation is a matter of slow growth, and is a most valuable asset to any institution. But we fully appreciate that the splen­ did reputation enjoyed by French's White Lily Flour in the thous- ands of homes where it is being used, could be easily and quickly destroyed, simply by lowering its quality. That's why we say that we prize the high esteem in which French's White Lily Flour is held. It is one of our best assets. It shows that our more than 40 years of hard work have not been in vain, and that our constant effort to produce the BEST FLOUR at the.LOWEST POSSIBLE COST, have been appreciated. Many an institution tries to live ______ its reputation; others try to “capitalize^... All of them fall down,. sooner or later. Some­ times you see an institution win a glorious __________ success, Then thinking y, it it should earn more money, i commences to cheapen its product, hoping its reputation t ”11 continue to "pull business”—but it won’t, We have never ‘‘fii ired that way.” We feel that nothing is too good for French’s i Lite Lily _ Flour. ____ _No pains or expense r __ will be spared to keep it at the head of the list of the best flour made, and our economies in manufacture enable us to sell it at price no higher than is charged for flours of inferior quality. If you will tty French’s White Lily Flour just once, you will see that it is MORE DEPENDABLE than any other flour you can buy. You will find that each sack you buy is just like the last sack •you bought, because every particle of flour has to go through the complete process of this mill before it goes to the sack. French’s White Lily Flour will cut down the living expenses of any family using it, and it will provide the members of the household with the best bread that can bp made. Why not order just one sack and try it? • Dr. A. W.

ARGUBRIGHI, Business Expert HOW SWITZERLAND TRAINS HER YOUNG MEN WHAT IS JUDGMENT? So That Country Always Has An Efficient Fighting Force Beady to Act. When I was a boy l sometimes thought that judgment was an inherited quality. I knew that it was, but couldn't just exactly place it. Now I know what it is. Judgment is gathering together all the knowledge on one side of a question, and then gathering together all the knowledge on the other side of the question, and then thinking it all over carefully and coming to a decision as to just what is the best thing to do. Why can’t you use just as good judgment as anybody? ” ........ ...... .. well as you can .• » .<-• -!-j -» t- t__«* s You can. ” You can go about the big things of life just as the small things. rx One ikind of work isn't — any •harder than any other kind of work. Some kinds of work arc more congenial to you, more adapted to your particular qualities, than other kinds of work; but that isn’t the point. The point is that you have the brains to be a great big success in this world, if you will just develop them.

You and I have the same amount of brain material. In fact, scientists tell us that some of our most noted men of the world had the lightest brains. The difference why you don't get as much out of your brain as I do out of mine is simply because my brain is developed more than yours. Suppose two farmers owned forty acres of land each; one developed and cultivated fifteen acres. The other developed and cultivated thirty acres. They have the same amount of ground, but who gets the most harvest? It is just the same with brains. The man who develops his brains, trains them, gets the most out of life, and gets the greatest amount of real pleasure. One man is paid $5,000.00 a year, another is paid $500.00. The dif­ ference is due to the difference in BRAIN DEVELOPMENT of the two men. What Kind of Knowledge Is the Best To Cash In On? • . Which would you rather hire? Knowledge of baseball, football, billiards, basketball, etc., or a fundamental knowledge?©!_the underlying principles of business? It don’t require any argument, does it? You know just as well as I do. When the Postum Cereal Company go ouj to hire a man, what kind of know­ ledge do they want him to have? And do you suppose for a minute that it is a knowledge of baseball, pool, of* the best brand of cigarettes, that brings Henry Ford $60,000.00 a day? There is no question about it. We do more than teach—we develop young men a.nd young women physically, mentally and morally at the same time we are teaching > them to do actual business work. * Not only do they learn all about business, but they learn the tools of business such as Shorthand, Typewriting. Bookkeeping, Auditing, Cost Accounting, Let­ ter Writing, Business Law, Advertising, etc. They learn all of these.things, and then when the time comes, they are directed in the proper channel. They are told how to go out and get the best there is out of these things. Now Comes the Question of Nerve That is a slang expression. It means this, HAVE YOU THE WILLING POWER TO ACT? Are you too timid to decide? Your judgment tells you which course i* the best. Then, since you know just what is best for you, and just how to do it, why don't you do it? Excuses don't get you very far in thia world. Nobody wants excuses. It is results that count. You must decide right now just what you are going to be. You must decide right now whether you are going to work hard all your life for a bare living, or whether you are going to develop your abilities into the all-around man or won^an, the one worth while, the one that the world wants, and/s going to pay for. So great is the demand for these young people that Every Graduate Is Assured a Position or E-very Dollar of Tuition la Refunded Doesn't that show you that we mean just what we say when we tell you that it is training, and the right kind of training for every young man and every young woman? Doesn't it prove to you that our training is a successA We have even better proof than that. We have some two thousand or more letters in our files from former students who have made great big successes in life. They tell us that their success is due to Michigan Business & Normal College training. These graduates are occupying the biggest and best positions throughout this state, and scattered all over these United States. Many of them are earning from $3,500.00 to $5,000.00 a year. Some arc getting more than this. Many of them are in business for themselves, and many of them are now sending their sons and daughters here to school. Isn't this abundant proof? You can grasp an opportunity today to fit yourself for the bigger salary, thp better work, the better associations, for success, for life, if you have got the nerve. Have you or haven't you? Don't say that you cannot afford to, or that you haven't the money. This is a business proposition, and for every good business proposition there is always a way to raise the money. It has been our pleasure to help hun­ dreds of young men and young women to solve this apparent difficulty. There is no difficulty in the way of a really earnest, sincere young person. Call For an Interview Call for a'personal interview with our President. Mr. Argubright. A fifteen minute visit with him may be worth thousands of dollars to you. He has per­ sonally supervised the training and the development and the placing of thousands of young men and women. Mr. Argubright will tell you honestly and frankly whether or not you are intended for the work. He will tell you what you must do and what you must not do. He will point out your strong points and your weak points. He will help you to. specialise, grow and develop, so that you will not only be a good worker, but a specialist in the line for which you are best suited. ■' ' . Now You Good Fellows Yqu bright young men and women, you fun lovers, you spenders, you who are frittering away time as though it amounted to nothing, come in. Let us talk this over. Let us get together. The world needs you, and you need the development. Sometimes you good fellows develop into the finest of God’s noble­ men. This game of business take* some courage, and you fellows usually have it. Anyway we want to talk it all over. Come in.

You’ll find them in an OPEN BOX, on an OPEN SHELF, so that they will catch all the dust, dirt and filth that comes their way—and it’s no small amount. When you smoke one of them, you get a lot of it on your lips and into your mouth. More than that, when you light one of them you very often find that they are ALL DRIED OUT. They are like ‘‘tinder.’’. All the tobacco taste is gone. THERE IS SUCH A THING AS "KEEPING TOBACCO CLEAN." There is also ■uch a thing as "KEEPING IT RIGHT." Come into this store and we will "SHOW YOU.’’ Here we have ZINC-LINED, DUST PROOF CASES in which we keep ALL STOCK—Chewing Tobacco, Smoking Tobacco, Cigars, Cheroots, Stogies and everything else. In our zinc lined, dust proof cases, the temperature is kept to jqst the RIGHT DE­ GREE by an automatic electric humidore. So when you buy Tobaccos, Cigars, Cheroots, Stogies or Small Cigars here you get stock that is KEPT CLEAN; stock that is SOLD CLEAN; stock that is KEPT RIGHT. In other words you GET A BETTER VALUE FOR YOUR MONEY. Are you interested?? They why not follow the "procession?" You’ll find it STOPS HERE when it wants a GOOD, CLEAN SMOKE.

The fellows who deal in them operate on the basis that a prospectus promising enormous dividends, compared with which the “pa|try 3 per cent'* of the savings banks seem ridiculous, wjll do the business, and too often they are correct.

It was estimated that in less than ninety days they received over $$00,000. Seems incredible. No banker ever knowingly advised a depositor wrongly.

We have been building up the reputation of French’s White Lily Flour for over 40 years. Since we have been engaged in this business, many changes have come in the methods of making flour. We have been extremely careful in changing our methods until we were satisfied that they were RIGHT, and would improve the QUALITY of French’s White Lily Flour. # . We have reduced flour making to an exact science. We KNOW just what kind of flour the housewives want, and what will give them the BEST SATISFACTION. We studied out a PLAN for making flour EXACTLY THE SAME every time. That is the reason that French’s White Lily Flour NEVER VARIES IN QUALITY, and why the housewife can always DEPEND UPON it. The sack you buy next week, or next month will be EXACTLY THE SAME as the sack you bought last week, or last month, because every kernel of wheat, and every particle of the flour, has to go through exactly the same process. WE JUST COMMENCE TO MANUFACTURE FLOUR WHERE THE ORDINARY MILLS QUIT. For instance the floUr made in the ordinary mills only goss through from 3 to 5 sets of rolls. On the other hand we put French’s White Lily Flour through I 7 SETS of rolls. When we have put the grain through 4 or 5 sets of rolls, we have only COMMENCED to make our flour. Exery ex­ tra set of rolls that French’s White Lily goes through ADDS TO ITS QUALITY, and makes the flour just SO MUCH BETTER, and in the end reduces every particle of flour to the same size. Tliis per- ’ mits an even uniform absorption of yeast when making bread. Every woman appreciates that there is a big difference in flour. She knows that with one kind of flour she may have 'good luck” in baking one time, and “poor luck” the next time- The fault is not hers—it is because the flour WAS NOT MADE RIGHT. She. could easily see the REASON WHY if she could see the process of man­ ufacturein this mill, and compare it with the process followed in the ordinary mill. The women folks are “getting wise" to the difference in the QUALITY of flour. They KNOW that with French’s White Lijy Flour their work is LIGHTENED, because they do not'have any baking troubles. They “feel sure" of GOOD RESULTS. On the other hand, when they use flour made in ordinary mills, they are NEVER SURE, of results. No matter whether they pre­ pare the bakings in the “same way every time" the RESULTS WILL VARY, because the FLOUR IS NOT UNIFORM IN QUAL­ ITY, for the reason that IT IS NOT MADE RIGHT—not made EVEN and UNIFORM. By/reason of owning our own mill, our water-power, our elec­ tric lighting plant, and especially by running NIGHT and DAY, year in and year out, it enables us to KEEP EXPENSES DOWN, and reduces our MANUFACTURING COST to a minimum. The expense that we SAVE in this way, we put right back into MAKING OUR FLOUR BETTER. That s the reason that you are able to buy French’s White Lily Flour at the sanse.price that inferior brands would cost you. When you buy French’s White Lily YOU GET A BETTER VALUE FOR YOUR MONEY. That a the reason that MORE of it is used in Barry County than of all other, flours combined. During the more than 40 years we have been running this mill scores of different brands of flour have been thftiat on the market, all of them claiming to be “just as good" as French’s White Lily Flour. People in many cases have "tried them out,” but they AL­ WAYS come back to the Old Reliable French’s White Lily, better . satisfied than ever before that it’s the BEST flour op the market. if you dort’t KNOW what French’s White Lily Flour isjjf^you have never tried it in your home, why not order just ONE SACK arid try it out.

Russ & Son GrX A Message To Our Patrons In our endeavor to improve our Drug Store Service where ever possible, both as view­ ed by the profession and oublic we have found it necessary to devote a very great part of our time and our closest attention to the buying end of our business in the securing of a line of medicines and merchandise that would fully meet with the exacting requirements of our business in every respect We feel called upon to make known this fact as it is a condition looked into entirely too little by too many dealers in these days of flagrant adulteration and substitution. Even in these days of Pure Food and Drugs Inspection in many instances we have to repeatedly re­ turn goods bought of reputable houses which only on the closest examination revealed their impurity. V . i u j This message then, assures you that everything purchased of us is not only purchased from the highest dependable source and of the best-procurable quality and guaranteed so to us, but also assures you that whatever you purchase from this store has passed our rigid censorship of the very closest inspection or. most exacting test that science can apply and which we have found in our long experience advisable to apply, is applied everywhere.— Nothing excepted. Our reasons for this painstaking care in selecting goods and in serving our customers with goods of right quality and price is to have you favor us with your patronage in your particular drug buying. That is our policy and you will find us. always improving, if such a thijig be possible, to be bettenprepared tnap ever to fill your needs in our line and in the end you receive thebepefit.

These particular places will pay $60.00 a month to start and offer unlimited opportunities for the future. . Another large manufacturing concern asked us on July 29 for a young man of sales ability. This place wilipay $75.00 a month initial salary and is the direct road to a Branch Manager’s chair. § | B gg A DOLLAR AND A HALF OR FIVE, DOLLARS A DAY YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY SURE OF a good position when you complete our course of study. Young Woman—Note This Not long ago the younger of two sisters came to this institution. She had the average high school training. At the end of one year in jhe business office she was earning $50.00 a month. This girl had an older sister. She had a high school training, two years' normal training, and four years' teaching experience. She, too, was getting $50.00 a month. She contemplated Michigan Business & Normal College training, but the School Board advanced her salary to $55.00 a month and she decide^ to remain in her teaching work. That was a year ago. Today the younger sister geta 865.00 a month for twelve months in a year—8780.00 for a year's work. The teacher gets $56.00 a month—6550.00 a year. This is a plain advantage, worked out to a mathematical certainty, of >230 4n favor of Michigan Buainesa <5 Normal College training. There's another side to this. The older girl has about reached her limit. The younger girl has still an opportunity for better salary ahead. If /re are not mistaken, she will be drawing $75.00 a month before a year from now. and even if the, older girl gets $60.00 a month, the younger will still be $300.00 a year ahead. GIRLS DO YOU NEED ANY BETTER ARGUMENT THAN THIS? REMEMBER THESE TWO GIRLS COME FROM THE SAME FAM­ ILY, HAVE ABOUT THE SAME NATURAL ABILITY. It'S JUST A PLAIN RESULT OF TRAINING AND PROPER DIRECTION. THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF THESE CASES, AND IF YOU WILL CALL AT THE COLLEGE OFFICE* WE WILL BE GLAD TO TELL YOU MORE ABOUT THEM. , ' Creamed Dried Beef.

It is the kind of training that will help you, no matter what you do in life. One of the most prominent attorneys of Battle Creek made the remark once that if he had had Michigan Business & Normal College training it would have been worth to him at least $10,000.00 the first five years of his legal practice. Many young men and young women who expect to specialize along university lines have taken our training for the value that it gives. One of the richest men in this community sent his daughter, to this school because he wanted her to have the PRACTICAL EDUCATION that she would get as a stu­ dent of this school,.and when she went away she told me that-she valued her training here more than all her other education, because it was a TRAINING " THAT SHE COULD USE.

Towne. In giving the pioneer days of the township ot Prairieville, it will be dif­ ficult to separate it from the county nnd even from Richland in Kalamazoo county, to which-Barry county was attacheil for judicial jiutposea. Tho lands of Kalamazoo county com­ ing into market before they did in Harry equity, Richland or Gull Prair­ ie was settled several years before Prairieville. ■ As the early settlers of Hichland htul snared most uf the desirable land on ry county were, to come into market, they discovered that the land in Utopia was just oyer the base line of what is now the* township of Prairieville. ' John F. Gilkey or mure familiar )y know-ii as Foster Gilkey, had entered wiati nf. the more desirable lands on <lull Prairie, n laudable desire was manifested by others to head him off. At the time of which I write, 63 yean ago, the township of Prairieville was an open country. No underbrush but covered with heavy scattering tinb tier of the 'different varieties ot oak. Hickory, haxrl-bush, willow plains nnd ground’ corina with a heavy coat of prairie grass, whieh Chaa. W. Spauldwent after hia cows, nt the tinkling umnil nf tbs ball, he wpuld take a trail and could Inp the prairie grass over his head. Also, Foster Gilkey had once informed tho writer, that min had not improved upon the hand of nature. Prairieville-also'has the head, if not the rn'tirrf body, of mnuy beautiful lakes aahleh at thia data are fitted for resprta, for rest, for recreation, for the old.- aud young. Huch was the primi­ tive condition of Prairieville when the fund of Barry coflnty came into the market in 1831. To Ariinsa' H. Parker belongs the , honor ot entering the flrat .80 which par a.85 bounty for wolf, ncnlpi. From the year 1837 to 1838, it would were kept busy in 1*-ing out roa-ls, ns the record shows; The first road laid out ia town or commenced in (lull frairie, running nortfe on the west aldo of Crooked lake to what is now Prair­ ieville, then to .Yankee Springs and Thornapple river, where Lewi* Mornn bad a trading post. Tins road waa the common thoroughfare from south nnd east to Grand Rapids by floating from Moran's down the river. Also, same SXr n road was laid out from Yankee prings to Hastings. You will please pardon me. for en­ croaching upon your time.

At 4his rirvuuu, election, iuu the uuiu number of voters had increased to nearly election, Ambrose Milla supervisor and Peter Falk, town clerk. On tho following Sept. 4th, 1838, a special election was called to be hold at the school house near Isaac Otis, for tho 18th, to elect a supervisor in place of Ambrdse Mills, deceased, and to elect a constable in place of Wm.

From about the year 1836, the town in fact, and other parts of tho county settled very fast. Tho early pioneers came from the northeast states, mostly from ............ Vermont, — Maine ...... and Connecticut ..ua. and with them camo the ehureh and Sunday School whieh farmed the hiture good character of the present In­ habitants. The first Sunday School was located at North Pine Lake with Duty Bensen at the head. The first district school was in a little red school house in the Spaulding'distriet. It was in use 40 years ago when the writer became a settler of the town, but a mure impossing structure ia now in use. and Henry Edgcomb. There ware 15 votes cast of which 8. C.

Bernard la tha Alps last winter. When tho good monks saw tho birds, they opened tha doors and windows of their building that the little feathered strangers might have shelter. All tha rooms wove crowded with them, thousands remaining until sun­ rise. The next day proved Uno and tbe guests pursued their way toward Italy. This is very pleasant to learn, but It saddens, one to know that a vast number of less fortunate birds failed to reach tho Hoapleo and tyere found dead In the snow by the tenderhearted Tha Bright Side. Algernon Daingerfield went book last summer to his old homo in Koo tacky on a visit. Ho bad fieahened up considerably.

Owner* 15 Morrill Building Saginaw. West Bide, Mich. Dr. A. W. Woodburne People are always looking for "something BETTER for their money.” That* just as true of flour, as it is of clothing, shoes, or other merchandise. It’s all right too, because they invariably find that trying "experimental” flours is an expensive proposition for the consumers, because the most of it has to be-thrown away, or fed to the chickens. But the more that people experiment with other flours, the more it emphasizes the QUALITY of French’s. White Lily, because those who give it one fair trial "always come back” sooner or later, and better pleased with it than ever before. There are 365 "BREAD DAYS” in a year, and it only requires just a few days to convince the housewife of the "expense,” and the "wasted time" in using flour she doesn't KNOW about. During our more than 40 years of experience in making French’s White Lily Flour, a great many different brands of, flour have been sprung on the market. Ma$y of them were heralded with flaming advertisements; others appeared in gaudy, glittering sacks emphasizing the virtues of that particular flour. But actual EXPERIENCE in using flour made in the ordinary mills, will soon convince you that you can't tell any more about the QUALITY of flour, by reading what is printed on the sack, than you can tell about the ’’ideas” in a kid’s head by lookong at his cranium. If you don’t KNOW French’s White Lily, Flour we would like to have you TRY IT OUT. You won’t run any chance'whatever. * We GUARANTEE the flour to PLEASE YOU. If it doesn’t, all you have to do is to return it to your Grocer and GET YOUR MONEY BACK. < If yod have never used it, we don’t ask you to go ahead and buy it by the ton, although you would be perfectly SAFE in doing that —in fact that’s the BEST WAY to buy French’s White Lily, because the longer you keep it the BETTER it becomes; it IMPROVES WITH AGE, as you will’find if you will try it. But if you have never used French’s White Lily Flour before, order just a small sack of it, and then try this experiment:—Make a batch of bread from French’s White Lily Flour, and a batch from ANY OTHER FLOUR you may care to select. Put the loaves in the same oven, right side by side, bake them at the same time.

It will convince you quicker, and better than anything we can say, or write, of the TRUTH of what we have been telling you in our ad­ vertisements. French’s White Lily Flour is the BEST flour made, because it is made in the BEST WAY. We clean our grain better; we put French’s White Lily through 1 7 SETS OF ROLLS, where­ as the ordinary mills very rarely have more than 3 or 4 sets. Why not order a sack of French’s White Lily?

Mr. Baleh who had for ro many yeara conducted the criminal case* in the . county in behalf of the people, able assisted Mr. Holbrook in moat uf tfce important trials, during the latter's several terms of office. Mr. Isaac A. Holbrook was a fair practi­ tioner, but his time was very largely occupied by hie real estate and other outside business, whieh somewhat inter­ fered with his success as a lawyer, ard which during lhe later years of hia life resulted in more or less embarrassment. He was a man of kindly social disposi­ tion and natifrr, always atanne-h and true to his friends, and ever foremost in aiding every measure tending to im­ prove the place in which he ha-l for so many years made hia home. His death occurred here at his home on the ll'lh day of April, 1875, in the 59th year of hi.* age, and it created a vacancy in the older membership of the bar, which caused him to lie greatly missed.

French’s White Lily Flour is the result of the best wheat grown, passing through the best, newest and most up-to-date flour making machinery that money can buy. More than this it is made in a mill that runs continuously DAY and NIGHT year in and year out. As our machinery is all operated by water power, you can see the perfect conditions under which French’s White Lily Flour is pro­ duced. None but the best of skilled help is employed in this mill. Month by month and year by year we continue to improve the quality of French’s White Lily Flour. The flour we are making to­ day is better than it has ever been before. When we find there is any new piece of machinery needed to improve the fineness or the quality of our flour we obtain it at once and give you the benefit of the improvement; for we do no£ add to the price .of French’s White Lily Flour. French’s White Lily is a high grade flour in every respect and yet you pay no more for it than you would have to pay if you used an inferior or cheaper grade product. It is reasonable to suppose that after having made this high grade product for over 40 years and always kept improving it and adding to it with experience, that we are able to furnish you a flour that is su­ perior in every way to other flours that claim to be just as good. Do not be deceived—there is none so good as French’s White Lily Flour, it’s always even, it’s always just the same—when you bake with it one time you find it just like other times. Nearly every­ body's using it. If you haven’t tried it yet, ask your grocer for a sack. He has it in stock.

It is bounded on the north by Yankee Hprings, on the vast By Hope, on the south by Prairieville and on the west by the town of Martin. lives in Prairieville.

That passed through the eastern portion of the town entirely independent of tho route Brown took, and no doubt many a white man had poised over it before the fall of 1833. There are four persons now living who are genuine pioneers of Orange­ ville. There may be more but if so I do not* know who and where they arc. The oldest of, this quartette is .Mrs. Eliza Jane Cole, daughter of John nnd Martha Patton, mid widow of Joseph Cole. Mrs. Cole was burn in Lyons, Wayne county, X., In 1821, camo to Lenawee county.

You can join this club and start a systematic saving, according to some plan which you may select, which you will keep up for 40 weeks. * When you call at the Bank for your membership card in tide Thrift Tax and Vacation Club, simply give us an idea of the total amount of money you will require and we will help you select the plan for accumulating the sum you wish to have. „ Four Plans are what we call the “progressive" style of payment. They call for deposits df one, two, five and ten cents, respectively, the first week, increasing each week thereafter by the same amounts. Four classes, are the “reducing" style of payment and are the opposite of the "progressive" classes. The last eight classes call for deposits of an equal amount each week. The Club will be opened September 1st. You should join this club! If you do not care to save this money for Vacation or Taxes, you can use it to some other GOOD PURPOSE. Remember you can start now to provide any amount for any purpose. Every penny you deposit in this Club is yours when the Club period ends and it draws interest at 3 per cent from the tin/e it is deposited. Come in today and let us talk the matter over The Hastings National Bank HASTINGS, OUR PUBLIC FORUM Peter Radford On Church rind State The recent action of one of tho leading churches of this nation, in annua! ronvrntion. demanding that tho laymen vote only for Candidates for office whoso views colnt ldn with thoso of the clergy on one of tho leading political iMuea. and direct and indirect efforts of other church organlrations to interfere with the freedom of tho ballot, make one of the greatest perils of this uge, and present a problem that should recq(gp thoughtful con­ sideration of both laymen and citizens. ’ Suckling babes may well squirm In their cradles when ministers in convention assembled release the hearts of men and grab them by the throat, for Chris­ tianity has broken down, religion has become a farce and the pulpit a failure. When tho church substitutes force for pcrauaalon, command for conviction and coercion for reason, tho sheriff had as well pass tiro sacrament, plainclothes men take charge of the altar and policeman bury the.deutr. for why a church? . It in as dastardly n < rima against government 'for u minister to under­ take to deliver the votes of his parishioners ts> a candidate, as it ia for a ward heeler lo deliver a block of votes to n political boas, and both ought to bo prosecuted, for the law should bo no respecter of persona. It is as objectionable for n convention of mlnlatcra to seek by canonical law to control tho votes of church members as it would bo for a convention of manufacturers lo Issue orders for their dtnployt’cs to vote for a certain candidate. Bufh conduct Is offensive to decency, business morals and a crime against society. Any convention, whether composed of saints or sinners, rich or pour, white or black, that seeks to prostitute power and coerce con­ science ought to bo broken up by the police and its leaders arrested for trvason. ' . A crime by any other name is a crime just the name. An ecclesikstlcal robe cannot sanctify treason, authority lo preach doos not carry with It I license to becomo a political ringstor. or tho right to teach us bow to pray :’glvo a permit to tell us how Ao vote. No man in Joining the church should 'saerfflee hia cltlznnshlp, forfeit bls constitutional liberties or subordinate his tduly to tho state. The earth many times has been drenched with the blood oi our forefathers fighting to throw off tho ecclesiastical yoke from the alate, and tho suggestion,of a return to throw medieval conditions with their horror । and their torture should not bo tolnrated for a moment. . Laws should bo passed prohibiting any preacher, or combination of I preachers, from delivering or attempting to' diillvar their membership or . congregation to any candidate for office. aud suitable legislation should be leased preserving the sanctity of thn pulpit from political vandalism. It is as much a menace to church knd state for a politician to occupy tho pulpit < as for u minister to preach a political sermon. He has no more right to ; preach his politics from the pulpit than n teacher has to teach his politics . to hia pupils. A preacher cannot makn political trickery righteous by usage •any morn than he.can raako profanity respectable by practice. It Is one , of the ironies of fato that a preacher may become a scandal as well as a । glory to civilisation. ________ . fPERSONAL Wednesday. in the. eity on business Saturday. • Mr. and Mrs Will Morrison n’liil adn Grand It.-ipiil, and Muskcgcui.

The Plowing Season is Now Here and you should have the best.plow for your work. 1 can sell you the SYRACUSE riding plow for $35.00, but if you are looking for the best there is, then you should see the SOUTH BEND riding plow. ---------------Any riding plow is a three-horse plow. Why spend your time with three-horses plowing a furrow 12 inches wide, when the same team on a South Bend plow will plow a furrow I 5 inches? In plowing a twenty acre field with these two plows and going the same number of rounds in a day with each plow, the SOUTH BEND PLOW will be done when you will have over four acres to plow with the Syracuse, a gain of about two days work. In these times of scarce and high priced labor this means some­ thing. This tells you which plow to buy. See me. 1 have them both. Jesse Townsend ‘Not In The Tru»t” , Halting*, Mich.

FACE FTETEE, Every Farmer Needs a Silo Filler Nearly forty yearo ago—at the Philadel­ phia Centennial in 1876—“Ohio" Cutters were awarded the gold medal as the best made. Progress in silo building and silo filling since .that time has been very great and has called for constant improvement in silo filling machinery. • Being pioneers in the field the “Ohio" builders have met and successfully solved ev­ ery problem as it arose; they have ever been closest students in the school of actual service, studying the farmers* needs in practice—not in theory, and meeting those needs at first hand. DIRECT DRIVE ADVANTAGES Ensilage feed is a money maker for the farm. Many farmers every year are falling in line on the matter of feeding green feed the year ._ _round. A farmer can do. so by buying the “Ohio”===the Filler With the Direct Drive This constant pressure on the “Ohio” comes direct­ ly against the heavy bearings at each end of knives instead of at one end only. The powerful lift of fan is done at low speed—650 to 700 R. P. M.; avoiding all danger of blow-ups <>r explosions; does away with necessity of makeshift On any other type of cutter such bearing support transmission mechanisms; in short it secures all isn't even possible. You can't place a bearing on the the advantages of the fly whec| type without any of. -rim of a fly wheel—IC* bound to spring, in.propor­ its dangers and imperfect cutting. tion to its diameter and to the pressure of the wall KNIVES CAN T SPRING AWAY FROM of corn. / CUTTER BAR . ONE LEVER CONTROLS ALL A solid wall of coni steadily forced against the cut­ ting knives tends to spring them away from gutter bar. A single lever, almost human, gives operator abso­ lute control of “Ohio” feeding mechanism at all, times—stopping, starting or reversing the Feed lift-i-no’strength labor required. cessible from almost any position around machine. EASY RUNNING You may bv told that the “Ohio" uses more power than some other cutter. Ask why a giant Mogul locomotive requires more coal than a toy engine. Tdri'fut Ipiv-thc "Qliiv’..takes far less horse-power than any other. A cylindrical..shear ent always take’s less poWvr Ilian a chopping cut.

Hundreds of hard earned and slowly saved dollars have been lo^t, not alone by people of Hastings and Barry County but by people every where, in an effort to secure more for their money than money can safely and honestly earn. Get-rich-quick schemes are not usually very satisfac­ tory, while the systematic saving in such banks as ours not only is satisfactory but is highly gratifying. , We Pay 3 Per Cent Interest Compounded semi-annually on all savings deposits. This is all a bank can afford to do and safeguard its deposits. Every bank organized under the law of Michigan, must be examined twice each year by its own board of directors, or a committee chosen by them as well as by the State Bank­ ing Department. The report of these directors is a public record, and the making of a false report is perjury. Every Savings bank organized under the laws of Michigan, must invest at least half of its savings deposits in real estate mortgages or approved bonds—the very best of secur ity. Any bank organized under Michigan Laws is therefore pre-eminently sound. These laws have been much improved since the panic of ’93. But even then but one State bank failure was recorded in Michigan during that panic. This bank is conducted on the sound­ est and most approved banking principles.

Tho arch is aa simple a principle uf efficiency a* the leper, und probably was used by man very early in history. ' Efficiency is simple common sense; ineffiiciency i* Idealism, nnd wo Amer­ icans have gone crazy over Idealism.

Thv people of Germany may be com­ pared with a German immigrant in the United Ntatr*. Being poor, he hustled, and in hi* hustling he used the simple principles of efficiency: Industry, fair­ ness nnd- common aenM, and kept his eypr'rtpen. The result all the world- knows: the German immigrant hn* liwoino rich, while many of his native rivals, start­ ing in with every atrvnntngc. have be­ come poor because of inefficiency, and lack of simple common sense. We have a new country; value* have increased, and made rich men nf many who were-actually inefficient: there are n million rich farmers in this country who are actually not efficient farmers, but who hjive been made rich by the advance in land values. There tvns n time when wo could afford Idealism Exaggeration nnd Inefficiency but we have about reached a time whan we must sober up. and realize thnt no amount of. legislation will choir the sun to. rise in thv west, to oblige gentlemen who wish n change, even though the change wijl accomplish good for no one.

DO NOT ALLOW ASHES TO PILE ' UPTOQRATE THE SECRET ■ J • - ■ The Secret of heating your home for less money—with less trouble—more comfort—and less dirt is found in burning Genuine Gas Coke and burning it The Right Way. that There is really only one fundamental principle to be remembered to get the greatest good out of Genuine is--blg volume of fire under very little draft. If you will fill the fire pot of your furnace full of Genuine Gas Coke and as far as possible operate your furnace as Gas Coke and shown in the above diagram, you will find that Genuine Gas Coke will prove the most economical and satisfactory fuel you ever burned. . Keep the drafts in the ash door closed—keep the air-check in damper pipe open--keep two inches of ashes on the grate bars—do not allow the ashes to pile up in the ash jiit. That’s all there is to it, anybody can heat their house properly and cheaply if these simple directions are followed and genuine gas coke is the fu l used. THE SAVING With Hard Coal at $7.80 per Ton and; > Genuine Gas Coke $6.00 p There’s a Saving to You of $1.80 per Toil ' I 1 And, yes, Genuine Gas Coke will go as far as bard coal. It’s all in remembering the Secret of— li g Fire, Little Draft. Remember, you get twice t c V’Juineof fuel for less money per ton and Qenuine Gas Coke contains more heat units than coal. THE CONVENIENCE The convenience of burning Genuine Gas Coke is found in the quickness with which it responds to draft (gets the whole house heated before a coal fire is hardly under way)—the ease with which it is handled (only half as heavy as coal). And in the cleanliness in the cellar and through the house (all the dirt, dust and soot have been removed at the gas works). Genuine Gas, Coke is the pure carbon that remains after the gas, tar, smoke and soot have been removed from the highest grade of soft coal. It therefore gives off no odors or soot and is clean to handle. Everyone who knows the secret, the saving, and the convenience, of Genuine Gas Coke will burn it this winter. It is surely worth a trial to find out—and if Genuine Gas Coke fails in any way to fill your expectations the Gas Company will send a demonstrator to your home to show you how to get the best results.

You don’t have to “guess" whether your baking will l?e good —you know that it will be. It is all ojn account of the perfect, system­ atic, and thorough way that we make the flour.

THE HASTINGS G1TY BANK Capital $75,000. The Bank That Does Things For You.1 “Lest We Forget Speech of Congressman J. Hampton Moore of Pennsylvania, member of tho Ways and Means Committee of the House of Representatives, at Worcester, Massachusetts, August 14th. “Lest Wc Forget” is about the best text that can be recommended to Re­ publicans st the present time. The European War and the temporary prosperity It has brought about Ln spots is being used for all it Is worth to make Republicans forget what ws» “done to them* in 1912. Above all thing* thi* is tho time nnt to forgot but to remember. We should remem­ ber that the whole country waa pros­ perous and that all men were employ ed prioy to 1912. W« should remem ber that the entire Republican system of prosperity/was attacked and that we were charged with responsibility . for the high cost of living and for ti great variety of economic evils. Prosdent Wihson came to Congress with a direct message to back up these charg­ es. He did not mince word*, but de­ clared emphatically that tho progress we had made under the Protective Tariff System must be destroyed. In .hi* “Address from the Throne,” April 8. 1913, immediately after he had call­ ed Congress in extraordinary session, he raid: "Wt must* abolish everything that bear* even the semblance of privilege or of any kind of artificial advantage • • • adds from tho duties laid upon article* which wo do not, probably cannot, produce, therefore and the duties laid upon luxuries and merely for tho sake of tho revenues they yisld, the object of the teriff du­ ties henccforin alid must be effective competition, tho whetting of Ameri­ can wits by contest with the wits of tho rest of the world.” This wa* the beginning of the Pres­ ident's effort* to put into effe-t the promise* of the Democratic Party. In any dl*cu»*ion of tho relative merits of a Republican or Democratic system of government, this message of Prrsi dety! Wilson should not be forgotter Neither should wc forgot the failure of the Adminiatration to reduce the co it of living, to destroy the Trusts, or to remedy any of the other evils charge.! tgainit the Republican Party. We should not forget the conse­ quence* of th* policy which the Presi­ dent advocated with sueh vigor. Our Democratic friends prefer now to diseus* the war in Europe, but wa must not hold them to the industrial war What wa* tho effect of the Presi­ dent’s tariff declarationf First: A staggering blow to all business in the United States because Second: The passage .. .....

While worms may not kill cattle direct, they surely retard the milk’giving ability of your cattle. Cows cannot produce milk when in a run-down and weakened condition which must be the case when worms prevail in their systems. There Is A Prevention. There is no reason why a bad condition shall be allowed to come when the prevention is within your reach—and it is so much easier to prevent disease than cure it.

MICH. This company was organized in 1915 by the citizens of our state. It is strictly a mutual company, working under the supervision of the Michigan Insurance Commissioner and fully approved by the state laws. The membership of $1.00 which you pay only once, entitles you to life membership and gives you an equal interest in the company with the other members. It is strictly your own company. AT THE TIME you make your application for insurance you pay 25c Horse Power, which insures you against hazard viz.: 1st.—Protects you against loss by fire from every cause Whatsoever, and at any ..place, and.—Protects you against theft of car or any of its parts, or any damage caused by theft. 3rd.—Protects you against claims for personal injury caused by your car which may be brought against you up to $$-,000, when the member­ ship reaches 1,000 which will be soon. 4th.—Protects you against claims for damages to property ofTSthera, caused by your car. which may be brought against you. The Ford Au­ tomobile Company endorses the Mutual plan. L. B. Robinson, attorney for the Ford Co., says: “We have always believed that the insurance charged on Ford cars was too high compared with the risk, and that a mutual plan, properly managed, would not only be Satisfactory, but 11 ike a large saving in expense of insurance to Ford owners."

Woodbume • Flour is the most important food product, but you will find there is just as much difference in the quality of flour as there is in the quality of clothing, shoes, furniture or any other manufactured product. You will always find that the BEST products are made by those who have the best mechanical equipments, and who know their business thoroughly. Some clothing, shoes and furniture are better than others, al­ though they DON’T COST YOU ANY MORE. That’s because through long experience in manufacture, careful thought and study, having the best equipment of machinery, and more favorable condi­ tions of manufacture, they can and do, produce a better product at the price than their competitors can do. Exactly the same conditions exist in producing flour. .The “style” doesn’t change in flour. When you buy it you buy it for QUALITY, and you are entitled to the BEST YOUR MONEY CAN BUY. . If you will notice, you will find that French’s White Lily is the STANDARD by which other millers judge their own product. They will tell you that it is "just as good” as French’s White Lily. It will not be as good because it will not be made in a mill that runs NIGHT and DAY year in and year Out as this mill, does. You will find that other flours are INVARIABLY made in mills that run J from 6 to 10 hours a day and then stop until the next morning, allowing the machinery to become COLD. You can’t make GOOD EVEN flour with COLD machinery. and such flour (will ALWAYS . machinery . . this . . mill is NEVER . vary in QUALII Y. 1. he m allowed to COOL^OFF. The flour is always the same even quality and you can ALWAYS depend upon it. If you have never used it, we don’t ask you to go ahead and buy it by the ton, although you would be perfectly SAFE in doing that -yin fact that’s the BEST WAY to buy French’s White Lily, be­ cause the longer you keep it the BETTER it becomes; it IM­ PROVES WITH AGE, as you will find if you try it. But if you have never used French’s White Lily Flour before, order just a small sack of it, and then try this experiment:—Make a batch from ANY OTHER FLOUR you may care to select. Put the loaves in the same oven, right aide by side, bake them at the same time. That’s a fair, square TEST of the real QUALITY of the flour. It will convince you quicker, and better than anything we can say, or write, of the TT^UTH of what we have been telling you in our ad­ vertisements. French’s White Lily Flour is the BEST flpur made, because it is made in the BEST WAY. We clean our grain better; . w _r through I 7 SETS OF ROLLS, whereas we rput French's White Lily the ordinary mills very rarely have more than 3 or 4 sets. The Middleville Roller Mills Middleville R.

Don’t Wait Until Snow Flies Before buying your coal, if you buy now, we will save you money. Coal prices will soon begin to soar and the wise coal consumer will take advantage of the present low price?*1 We always give you the best for your money, honest weight and prompt service. This coal economy advice is a little the best tip we have ever given you. Fill Your Coal Bin Now The time is seasonable for using FERTILIZER. No farmer can afford to seed one crop and then another, year after ye^r, without something to enrich his land. Every good crop produced on good farm land takes away some of the soil’s fertility and if you wish.to maintain the value of your farm you need fertilizer. HERE'S ANOTHER ONE FOR YOU TO THINK ABOUT We have several car-loads of coal on track and in bins in­ cluding POCAHONTAS and HOCKING VALLEY lump, and also Cannel the best fire-place coal on the market. For your furnace, our Egg or Stove coal will suit you; for your stove, try our Chestnut, easy to handle and right for the purpose. ONE COAL PILE MAY LOOK LIKE ANOTHER, but if you would get the coal that is richest in HEAT VALUE, get coal that has been carefully screened and inspected, that is practically free from impurities such as slate, sulphur,.iron. etc.. It will then burn to ASHES ONLY—no clinkers—no slag—it burns up clean. Try our coal and apply this test—you are sure to be pleased for wc sell this coal on its merits alone, ENRICH THE SOIL OF YOUR FARM Some of the farmers of Barry County used some of our Homestead Fertilizer last year in seeding certain fields and in other fields they used no fertilizer. / Coal / Now In the fields where our fertilizers were used no trouble was expenenced from the Hilessian Fly and in the other fields much damage was done by them. See what that means to you. Now is the time tp buy fertilizer and we will be glad to talk with you about it. We know we have what you want H Edmonds Brothers The Elevator Men w 1ISIT us while at the Fair ome in and go through the Elevator.

Now if you haven’t got a bean puller I have and it is the very one you need to successful­ ly handle the crop for you. I have two makes of machines, the “Wiard” and the “Miller.” both of them good machines, and a very few bushels of beans at $2.00 a bushel will buy either one of them. Call now and see them.

Alvin Bates, of Irving, Mich. ...... We first settled in.Jajkaon Co. and after remaining there a few months, >1 came to Orangeville with my broth­ er-in-law and wife, Mr. and Mrs. Isaac Messer. The country at that time was very sparsely settled, there being but one house between ours and Ouli Prair­ ie. My sister, Mrs. Messer, taught tho first school in Orangeville in 1837 in their own house, I being one of the scholars in that school of ten. Had there been a large school. I think there would have been lick of room, as the house was small. We had our school room partitioned off with a curtain, leaving the remaining part of the room to do duty for living and dining room, pantry nnd kitchen. But we enjoyed it all, and I for one gained knowledge during that term that 1 shall never for­ get, or that will ever erase to bo of use to me. Tn 1838 another one of my sisters, Amy Benson, taught n term of school in a room.Of rnv father's house (she having come to Orangeville in the fall of 183(5). I was more fortunate id regard to school prlviliges in coming to Bayry Co. than some who came west at so early a date. Tn 1838 we had a good framed school house built in time for the winter term, only a few rode from my home where I attended school far several years, until I went to Gull Prairie and remained a few months In a sort of select school, which sort of schools were quite scarce in those days, and this perhaps accounts for my hav­ ing the honor of being called on nt the age of fifteen to teach the pioneer school in Carlton in 1840. They were building a log achool house, but as they wished to have tho school com­ mence in May, Mr. Messer offered the uso of a room io his house which war .gladly accepted, and then I commenced my experience as a pioneer “school marm." Our school room was the fam­ ily bedroom 10x12, net very spacious or convenient, having to go through their best room to get Into it, wo of­ ten used the window to get out. By setting a chair outride I could put the little tots into that and they could jump to tho ground, while the larger ones could climb out, so all would roach terra firms in good humor. Oui school rqom appliances were quite primitivejror instance, had seats made of slabs with holes bored ia oaob end and legs inserted, which were placed on each ride and two ends of the room for seats, and a small tabla foi writing desk, where one eould write at a time. We used goose quills for pene, and woo to the teacher who was not furnished with a sharp penknife and possessed with skill to use it in keeping the pons in order. But the most inconvenient part of it was a clothespress opening from our room, which not unfrequently was visited by different members of the family when it became necessary for tho seat on that end of the room to be vacated and moved, while the Intruder would secure whatever they needed. This, however, did not detract from the int­ erest of ths school; on the contrary, the scholar* semed to enjoy tho'Inter­ ruption. In fact wo thought we had made quite a start up the hill of sci­ ence while waiting for the new house. Don't remember how many scholar* thsre wore, but think about 19. Al­ though my sister and family were ven lenient with us, I imagine they were Business Law For the Business Man A HOME STUDY COURSE given by OUR EXTENSION DEPARTMENT Every person fully reilliM that a successful man must bo versed la the legal methods of burins** transaction!, especially if hs expects to attain tho highest degree of efficiency.

Court- the operation About Time Now When You Begin Thinking About Fall Clothes and as we have an unusually well assorted stock this season of Men’s and Women’s apparel, we suggest that you drop in as soon as convenient and just take a look at the new proper styles. • True, it is still rather warm, but before many days Fall weather will be in evidence. It is during these early Fall days that the satisfaction of having a new appropriate Suit or Coat is in itself almost worth the price of the gar­ ment • You can buy clothes at almost any old price at the end of the season. But why wait until then unless you have to. , If its purely a matter of economy, perhaps you could get along with­ out it all winter and wear your old clothes. That would be real saving. But if you really want a New Suit or Coat choose early—buy at the very opening of the season. That’s when you get the most worth from your money—the greatest possible and the most satisfying wear throughout the entire season—when your new clothes are actually new and when you and everybody else enjoy the possession of new clothes the most. A month or two from now you will pay the same price as today—why hesitate? You have nothing to gain by waiting. In fact you actually lose a great deal of wear and satisfaction and your selection becomes more and more limited. We cordially invite you to come in soon and just glance over the many stylish suits for Ladies and Misses Wear priced reason­ ably from $15.00 to $25.00.

G. E ChidflslBL Mr Demands Quality Flour Salesmanship Is All Right But It’s The Quality Of French’s White Lily That Holds The Customers Any good salesman can go out and sell flour whether it is good, bad, or otherwise, but you may be sure of this—no wise or efficient cook or housewife can be fooled the second time on flour by the best salesman. It is quality and quality only that will keep a flour cusWhite Lily Flour—It stands the test. Hundreds of homes have proven its worth as a flour. They may at times have been coaxed or unduly persuaded to try something just as good, but they have come back to their standby—French’s White Lily. TKe quality of flour depends to some extent upon the’proper BLENDING of grains, upon the prqper CLEANING of the wheat and taking out all the dirt and foul stuff. But more than anything else it depends upon proper MILLING. That’s where KNOWING. HOW comes in. With our unbroken record of more than 40 years of successful manufacture of French's White Lily Flour, we have gained a lot of knowledge that you can’t find in books.

You may not have to pay for it in dollars and cents, but you DO have to pay for it in INFERIOR QUALITY. The great majority of the people of this county would hot all be using FRENCH’S WHITE-LILY FLOUR unless they knew it was the BEST, would they? They are doing just what every one else is seeking to do, and this is to get the best for their money. It is the cleanest flour on the mhrket because all the grain is washed and polished; all cockle, broken kernels and foul stuff are taken out by special patented machines, which is not done in other mills. Therefore you get all this stuff in the flour those mills make. What kind of flour are you using? Is it the kind that makes baking day a dread, or is it French’s White Lily, the flour the best qooks use? Does it pay you to EXPERIMENT with flours when you can buy French’s White Lily for the same price you have to pay for the inferior kinds? Think it over.

The adjustment of the machine is simple, and may be operated, as to depth, easily from the seat by means of the levers. The patent drive-wheels are provided with ribs in the center of the rim, which prevent the machine from moving sideways, either on level ground or on hillsides. The guards in advance of the drive-wheels remove all loose stones from their paths; which wpuld otherwise raise the machine and be a hindrance in the per­ formance of its work. The pole has a tilt-lever that will give different pitch to the machine. It is also provided with a sway-lever that shifts the draught and the pole from right to left, which makes it the best machine for side-hills and difficult places. Try one and be convinced.

The Cadillac field eras the coveted field— because it was a quality field. These dozcu or more cars struggled to Dud a place in it. because they were eager ’ to share iu Cadillac sjicceai. And. now. bow do things stand? • A limited market above the Cadillac in ' briow. And in the center, as solid as a rock, the great Cadillac clientele—greater, and stronger, and more solid than ever. When you search for a rar to compare with the Cadillac do you look down- It is not likely. And yet many a man in past years has thought that he waa buying a car as paying an approximate price. He cannot think t^at now. because these cars have removed themselves from the Cadillac field. Tho storm that once raged around tbe Cadillac still rages.—but_.it.H in an­ other cone.

Thi* enduring method uf const nre tion ia now applied H. . During the years, not so very far back, farmers gave but little attention to supplying their land with the necessary “food” which it -needed because of continuous cropping. Most farmers did not realize that each crop took out certain qualities from the soil and as a result most farms throughout the agricultural sections became "run” or worn but. Many farms have never recovered from that condition because there has never been put back into the soil those ingredients that were taken out by cropping—most farms have only partially recovered. Homestead Fertilizers are probably doing more for the farmer in assisting him to get his farm up to what it was originally than any one other agency. Many of the farmers of Barry County have proven the worth of Homestead Fertilizers. We buy this product in car load lots and will be very glad to give you quotations in large lots or small. You ought to use some on your farm. Now is the time to use it. Come and talk with us and we will tell you what Homestead Fer­ tilizers have done for some of your neighbors. .

Then, in order to strengthen the concrete ov­ er tho window opening*, lay two >•,-inch steel rods over each window.

Making flour IS OUR BUSINESS. For over 40 years we’ve giyen it our thought and study. Our aim has ALWAYS been to IMPROVE; IMPROVE; IMPROVE. For that reason you never saw French’s White Lily Flour lagging along in the rear. It has always been to the front, and there we propose to keep it. We take pride in it, and the universal demand for it, because it stands as the result of our 40 years of experience in the milling business, and of the study and thought we have devoted to it. French’s White Lily Flour is a perfectly balanced flour, and is the result of 40 YEARS of practical experience in making nothing but this one particular brand of flour. It is produced under those favorable, conditions of manufacture that you will rarely find sur­ rounding flour of any other make:— . this big mill NIGl^T and DAY, year in and year out. 2nd.—We own the WATER POWER and LIGHTING PLANT with which this mill is operated and lighted. 3rd.—We own our own.mill and equipment. It isn't a "knack” that makes good bread—it's very largely the real QUALITY of the flour that makes the difference. Whenr you make good bread from French’s White Lily Flour one time, you can ALWAYS make bread that is just as good from the same flour, if you’ll make it in the same way/because French’s White Lily Hour is ALWAYS the SAME. By running night and day, year in and year out, and having the very latest and most up-to-date equipment, we are able to make the BEST and MOST EVEN QUALITY of flour that it is possible to make. That is WHY, when you buy French’s White, Lily Flour, you can always KNOW that each sack will be just like the sack you had before. Why not try French’s White Lily Flour the next time you bake? Your Grocer or Elevator man keeps it. Insist upon having French’s White Lily. Dpn t accept anything that is claimed to be “just as good"—because it won’t be. If you have had "baking troublea” in the past, why continue using the brand of flour that you have been using? We are especially particular in the blending of the grain we use. This with our perfect and thorough system of milling, imparts a "flavor” that you will find in no other flour. The Middleville Roller Mills Middleville R.

FADE ELEVEN DAIRYMEN Just a few facts as to the profits you arc losing on your cream,’ if you are not deliv­ ering the very best quality to your creamery all the lime. Your cream doesn't have to be sweet cream tu. be ‘good cream. There is a great difference in sour cream as you well know. It can be sour and yet hayc that good wholesome rich flavor that makes the very finest ot butter. The point is this, the price which creamery butter sells for depends entirely on the • quality. anti the quality depends entirely op the quality of the cream it is made from. NOW GET THIS! At the present time our butte'r is selling on the Eastern market at about firsts. .Quoted last week at 24j-$c. We paid you 24% cts. Now could we raise the quality about three points, we could pay you from i cent to cent more than we are now paying. This raise in price would all go to the producer of the cream, why? Just because we can manufacture good butter just as cheap as we can poor butter, and the good butter would sell itself where the poorer tpitteq has to be worked all the time to keep it selling. Let’s get busy on this quality cream and gtt the top quotations another year. It can be done, and YOU. the dairymen of the country, arc the only ones that can do it. Talk it to your’Hdghbpr, to ytntr friends, everywhere you go. and.first.qf all see that YOUR cream is right. We have a thoroughly equipped, well arranged, well managed creamery, BUT your wife an our butter maker know it takes good cream to make'good butter. Crystal Creamery Company Hastings, Mich.

We all know that such a man is NOT independent. In fact he is likely to become a dependent And no man of thought or spirit can look with anything but distress upon anything of that kind. Now it is EASY to escape dependence and become really INDEPENDENT. It is the same old way that has given to the world its successful men in every walk of life. It is no royal path; but an easy one for the ordinary man in these days if he be determined. And here it is: LIVE WITHIN YOUR MEANS ANE> SAVE A PART OF YOUR EARNINGS. By Industry, Economy and Saving any man in America can become really independent, where he need not fear the rainy day, nor the loss of a job, nor miss the chance when opportunity shall knock at his door. .

EARLY- 'IVAL OF NEW YORK Eastern Metropolis of tha United States Might Have Been In We are reminded that New York came mighty near being on Staten is­ land by tho announcement that the famous Cubbepty cottage, with all its, furnishings, has been donated to the public by its owner. Dr. Nathaniel | Britton. Tho atructure is one of the finest examples ot the so-called “colonial" architecture extant, and It! tion. . It haa been satisfactorily de­ termined that II -was built not later than 16»0, and most of its furnishings antedate that year. It was tn all probability a finer rural residence at tho tlmo of its comploHou than any on .Manhattan island. Now it stand* at the Intersection of New Dorp lane and Cedar Grove avenue. At the time when thehulldors put on the last coat of paint and told tLe Cubber- tributary acres constituting a splen­ did sstate. and the Dutch arlstrocata of New Amsterdam, across the upper bay. followed the example of tbo orig­ inal Cubberly promptly tn establish­ ing themselves upon tbcf salubrious and picturesque hills of Staten Island. The Cubberly cottage was but the pioneer among many. In fact, as hlo­ ment on Staten Island grew so rap­ idly at, that time that some people thought It might outgrow New Am­ sterdam. Tha Cubberly cottage came into the possession of the Brittons In Nathanlel Hrltton. an ancestor of tha owner who has given'It to lhe puhlto as a- historical relic. The cottage, with all Its contents, will be kept open to the publie under the charge of the Staten Island Association of Arts and Science. Whsn tho Time Will Come.

They are doing just what every one else is seeking to do, and ' this ’is to get the best for their money. They have used French’s White Lily; they have tried other flours. But they all come back to French’s White Lily Flour because it is the best made flour on the market. Good salesmanship m®y succeed in getting "first orders" for an inferior flour, but in the "long run" it is QUALITY that will decide the question every time. It is also the cleanest flour on the market because all the grain is washed and polished; all cockle, broken kernels and foul stuff are taken out by special patented macliines, which is not done in other mills. Therefore you get all this stiTff in the flour those mills make. The quality of flour depends to some extent upon the proper BLENDING of grains, upon the proper CLEANING of the wheat and taking out all the dirt and foul stuff. But more than anything else it depends upon proper MILLING. That’s where KNOWING HOW comes in. With our unbroken record of more than 4ff years of successful, manufacture of French’s White Lily Flour, we have gained a lot of knowledge that you can't find in books. Every time that you buy a sack of French’s White Lily ^Flour you get the benefit of that expet ience—and it all counts in improving the quality. You have to pay What kind of flour are you using? Is it the kind that makes baking day a dread, or is it French’s White Lily, the flour the best cooks use? Does it pay you to EXPERIMENT with flour when you can buy French’s White Lily for the same price you have to pay for the inferior kinds? Think it over. The Middleville Roller Mills Middleville R. T.

There is no .record that can beat this. The foundation of the Reynolds Flexible Asphalt Shingles is a long fibre wool felt, treated with high grade asphalt—it is first thoroughly saturated with a specially treated asphalt so as to be absolutely impervious to moisture; it is then coated by a special process with a heavy coating of asphalt in another form, and it is then surfaced with mineral to protect it from the elements. ’ Reynolds discovered the mineral surfacing and the company has devoted it’s entire time and effort to as­ phalt shingles for over ten years, and by the Test Of Time has proved the efficiency of asphalt shingles and the supremacy of the Reynolds Mineral Surfaced product. • Reynolds Roofs Are Guaranteed Roofs Roofs made of Reynolds asphalt shingles are thoroughly guaranteed—thei not a catch clause in the guarantee. It is bona-fide—and is made effective as soon as the roof is Reynolds shingles will not work loose, leak, crack, rust or split.

Autobiography Of The Dime Where Bigness Doesn’t Count Most people regard me as a very small and insignificant coin. I guess I am. But sometimes mere size doesn’t count. I don’t believe in bragging about myself, but I think the readers of this adv. will be interested in knowing a few facts about me. Then maybe they will give me a better chance to prove what I can do. At first, I could not understand just why they made me so .small. Perhaps it was Uncle Sam needed so much silver in taking the/dollar. It takes so little stiver to make me that the people at the"mint have formed-the hamt of using the left over bits of metal for this purpose. So you see I am ju|t as good as the dollar, even though I may be smaller. You take ten dimes and you think you have more money than When you have one ■ silver dollar. You have. too. I am going to prove it to you. At first, I was bashful when «n the presence of the great dollar. 1 seemed so small alongside the big heavy fellow that I I decided I would not push myself forward, Noboby seemed to want me, anyway. The almighty dollar was the object of everybody's search. Then hard tirfies came, high tariff, tig prices and a few other interesting things like that. People scrambled just as hard for the dollar, but they gained more respect for the dime. They learned, in their study of ways and means to make their money go as far as possible, that a dime 'had a higher purchasing power, relatively, than a dollar, The people of Hastings and Barry Co.-wer« not- long in finding this out after ROBLIN & ROBLIN put in an assortment of merchandise to sell for from tc to 35c. Their respect for the small coin is so great that their list of customers is , getting larger every week. . . 1 ,moretof myself as a result of their experience, I am not at all puffed up, but mighty glad, just the same, to know that I am worth something in the world. If you really want to know just how far a dime will go, just call at the new store next to the Hastings National Bank. ° ROBLIN & ROBLIN l[ti:si left Saturday for her home in-Concord.

If the leather conditions are such that spores grow on your grain this year, your grain will have smut next season. Most grain has some kmut. Here are > iew ways for grain to get smutty. First, by weather conditions, second, by the threshing machine carrying smut from your neighbor’s; by your grain bags, and in fact, by everything used on smutty grain. Treat your seed with ANTI-SMUT every season and get rid of the deadly germs. IsqMU PLANT BULBS IN FALL FOR SPRING BLOOMING Crocus, Narcissus and Other Spring Flowers Should Be Planted Soon. How To Be Rid of It The introduction of ANTI-SMUT opens up another source of revenue to the farmer. Smut in grain has been practically a universal evil, and while it has gained greater headway in some sections of the country than in others, its pernicious effects can be seen in nearly all section^, and in all kinds of grain. The evolution of ANTI-SMUT is the result of careful study and tests of several years, and we can positively guarantee it to prevent smut the first year it is used. It increases the yield, strengthens the stock, and enhances the value of the straw two-fold. It is simple, in treatment and application and the results are positive and effectual.

We love to talk of Independence, but can a man be said to be Independent who has no money laid away for the inevitable rainy day; no means within his control that he may take advantage of Opportunity, when she knocks at his door; who looks to the future with dread •because he knows that if he loses his job, oiUs ill, or meets with some accident, that he has no means to tide him over until he can square away again? We all know that such a man is NOT independent. In fact he is likely to become a dependent. And no man of thought or spirit can look with anything but distress upon anything of that kind. • Now it is EASY to escape dependence and become really INDEPENDENT. It is the same old way that has given to the world its successful men in every walk of life. It. is no royal path'; but an easy one for the ordinary man in these days if he be determined. And here it is: LIVE WITHIN YOUR MEANS AND SAVE A PART OF YOUR EARNINGS.

Don’t get the idea that making flour is simply "grinding up wheat." If th^t were all there is to it, then one man could make just as good flour as another, and experience wouldn’t be necessary. You take two men who have worked at the milling business the same length of time. One of them will take your wheat and con­ vert it into a nice smooth, even quality of flour; the other man will only produce a POOR QUALITY. Why? He doesn’t KNOW HOW. You look at these two different kinds o£flour, and you will find that they both look very much alike. In fact the POORER QUAL­ ITY of flour may even LOOK better than the other. Now WHERE is the difference in these two brands of flour? We will tell you. It is simply in the MAKING of the flour. With all the recent improvements in machinery, making the BEST product of anj' kind is largely a matter of equipment and help. This is ESPECIALLY TRUE of flour. The latest models of flour-making machinery get all of the flour-goodness out of the wheat that is lost by any mill using old-style machinery. Unless a mill is fully equipped with the latest improved machinery, that mill CA NNOT make the BEST QUALITY of flour. But the latest patented and improved machines cost money just as all patented devices do. To throw out an entire equipment of, old machinery, and replace it all with new, requires a large expen­ diture of money, saying nothing of the temporary disorganization of business, and keeping things in a turmoil for months. But it pays in the long run. The FRENCH’S WHITE LILY FLOUR that are making with our up-to-the-minute equipment of machinery, far SUPER- O1R to anything that can be made with old style machines, that there is NO COMPARISON. We don’t charge any more for it than as though we had old equip­ ment, but our customers are so much better pleased with the QUAL­ ITY of the flour we are making, that we feel well repaid for-keeping our mill closely up-to-date. Satisfied customers has always been the aim of this mill, and we never Jet the question of EXPENSE stand in the way. • ' e Every housewife KNOWS that there is a big difference in flour. She knows from experience that a certain brand of flour may pro­ duce poor bread, and the n^xt sack even worse bread. On the other hand, she knows that a certain other brand of flour always produces the best kind of bread. She knows that if she uses the same amount of flour; prepares the dough in about the same way, and bakes with about the same degree of heat; that she will ALWAYS have nice, white, delicious bread, that it is a delight to eat. you wonder that we lilce to have the housewives try this ex­ periment:—Make a batch of bread from French’s White Lily Flour, and from any Other flour you choose. Bake them side by side in the SAME OVEN, at the SAME TIME. We could tell you just what the result will be, but we'll leave it for you to find but. You'll think more of French's White Lily afterwards. More people in Barry County are using French's White Lily Flour than ever before. They KNOW from experience that it is the BEST FLOUR MADE. Are you one of them) If not, why not fry it and become one of them? • D. C. ADAMS, M. D.

NEW YORK STORE HASTINGS, MICHIGAN DAIRYMEN We have the market for a very large amount of butter this winter. We have worked hard the past summer on the sale of our butter and now have trade for more than our winter’s make will supply. More cream is the only solution. We are going after it just as we did on the sale of our butter and will get it. Here is the point, if you are looking for the very best possible market for your ’cream this winter you had better see us at once as we are paying a very stiff price, and this along with the square deal we are giving is getting results. Just to show you what our growth is, taking the month of September for the past .three years: Sept. 1913—butter made 25,373 pounds, Sept.1914—butter made 27,330 pounds, Sept. 1915—35.235 pounds. We .noy have the largest number of patrons this plat.. has ever had, and are re­ ceiving new ones every day. Get in line and boost for the creamery that is paying you the cash- and not promises.

Away back in the fiftie*, when Barry county was yet a howling wilderness, and Hastings a little hamUt, there liv­ ed here one Alonzo Bennett, familiarly known as Lon. Naturally very unght, generous and quick wilted, he yet nad two failings; he had a keen relish for playing practical jokes, and an inaatiable appetite for liquor. The former did not cause him so very much annoy­ ance. but it made life a burden to many of the sober citizens of "ye olden time." His appetite kept his pockets him a man of distinction had ho prop­ erly used them. He spent most of his time hunting, fishing and trapping. He used sometimes to be very moody after his spree*, and, in one of tnesc fits of melancholy, took his own life. pranks. "Here’s your money,” said Kenfleld, handiAg him the two dollars. "And now remember your promise." Lon took the eash, and re-promised to pay as he agreed, in furTime sped on by months; but no two lollars came from the doubtful debtor. Finally Lon went to Detroit, Kalama­ zoo and Battle Creek, consuming a a umber of weeas on his long jaunt. At length he returned to Hastings ana Kenfleld, chancing to meet him on tho street, inquired: "Lon where’s that fur you promised me!" "Fur!" repeated Lon, "d—n It all Kalamazoo and Battle Creek, and if that ain't "fur”'enough I’ll return by,Pontiac next time.” That was all .ue pay Kenfleld ever received. Lon Becomes Aa .Important Personage. Before mekinft a journer it wue Lon's custom to collect all the furs he could, dispose of tuem for eash; and he woula spesd tho money thus obtained —often a considerable amount too— like a king. He dressed well on three occasions;, and in a place where he waa not known, would talk about his posses­ sions. his immense landed interests, his thriving business in Barry eounty; and as he seemed to have plenty of money, Holbrook had bought a dressed hog, rand desired to have the porker duly earved for peeking. Lon was consid­ ered a good hand at thi* kind of bum­ ties*, and wa», therefore, sought after by tho lawyer. Chaneing to meet him, they talked the matter over about as FAGB ELEVEN Great ' Majestic Range l&her. One curious fellow asked to One of the seo that fisker skin.

Beginning just back of tbc shoulder lie cut clean around, and laid the head—about one..hird of the hog—to one ride, and pro­ ceeded to cut up the remaining two­ -birds in a manner suitable for packing. This labor ended, he started homeward with the "head," placing over each of his shoulders one of the fore legs of the defunct porker. As good, bad or indifferent luck would have it, he met Mr. Holbrook. It waa too much for Charley’s risables, and he laughed as only he can. When he could control himself sufficiently to speak he said: "That hog must have been pretty nueh all head, Lon." "Curiousest hog I ever saw;" repli­ ed Lon. "Had "a neck‘on him like a giraffe.

PAY Now, My Friends— YOU YOUNG MEN AND YOUNG WO­ MEN who are interested in a real business, educa­ tion, how many schools offer you such a reputation as that? How many schools can show you a list of graduates that will even approach this? Now do they? No, they do nob. And they do not be­ cause the records of the Michigan Business and Nor­ mal College, its training, its service, and the final results attained cannot be even approached by. any institution, at least within this sUte. I WANT TO SAY TO YOU YOKING MEN AND YOUNG WOMEN THAT ' A BUSINESS EDUCATION OF­ FERS WONDERFUL POSSIBILI­ TIES. ' . • Argubright gives to every student of this school is worth many times the entire cost of tuition. This help is the out-gkowth of many years’ experience in the practical work of advising young men and young women with regard to their vocations; coun­ seling employers in the selection and assignment of employees; investigating industrial and commer­ cial institutions for the purpose of giving profession- It offers wonderful possibilities, because with the right kind of training you have a chance to learn the business of the firms you are with. Because you write the firms letters. Because you handle the correspondence. Because you keep the accounts. BECAUSE you, individ­ ually, do the work,'as planned by the heads of the departments. You learn to tmnk THOUGHTS OF SUCCESS, because you work directly for the men who are big in business. BUT NOW I WANT YOU TO THINK THIS THOUGHT RIGHT THROUGH TO THE END. If you are going to succeed in business you have got to start with the right kind of business training. If you start with the wrong kind of business training, the cheap kind of business trailing, the superficial kind of business training, you are bound to fail just as sure as the sun rises and sets. If you get a thorough business training, the kind of training you get at the Michigan Business and Normal College, you are placed at the very start in a position, offering an excellent salary, and not only that, but you are placed where you have an opportunity to GET ON THE INSIDE of the business, and your chances for the future are indeed unlimited. Business Training Is Not Difficult Shorthand, typewriting, the fundamentals of bookkeeping, are a part,'but are not in any sense of the word ALL OF A BUSINESS TRAINING. You can learn tha&ethings in q very short time, but dqn’t let any one delude you into thinking that this is a business education—physiology is not a medical course—arithmetic ia not a course in.civil engineer­ ing—civil government is not a law course. It Takes Experts It takes a business expert to teach you business —it takes a stenographic expert to make you a REAL shorthahd writer—it takes a penman to teach you to write—and with the proper teaching, such as you get at the Michigan Business and Normal Col­ lege, the road is easy. It’s just application, it’s just following instructions; and here,-exactly as in a real business office, you associate with successful busi­ ness men—you get their point of view and when you ?;o out into the business world you arc a success rom the very start—at a salary from 50 per cent to 100 per cent greater than you can earn in any other capacity. al advice upon efficiency in general, but tn particular, to increase the efficiency of every graduate of this institution. This department is beyond the com­ prehension of the ordinary individual. The only way that you can grasp the full significance-of the wonderful work done by Mr. Argubright is to en­ roll at the school and become a human, integral part of the plan. • More Than $3,500 a Year Come up to the College office and let us show .

He saysJ’Another case of what want to meet every serious minded young man and the training at the M. B. & N. C. will do for a fellow young woman. We want to open your eyes to .the wonderful possibilities before you. We want you with ordinary intelligence." The demand for our young men and young wo­ to know what we have done for more than 5.000 men is far in advance of the supply.

FRENCH’S FLOUR Will Save You Money on Your Flour Purchases and Guarantees the Best Bread For Your Family You can get more loaves of GOOD BREAD out of every sack of j French’s White Lily Flour you buy, than you can out of a sack of any I other flour that you can purchase. French’s White Lily doesn’t cost you any more than any other ' brand oFflour, and not as much as a great many of them. That means that when you buy French’s White Lily Flour for your home use, you not only SAVE MONEY, but you get the BEST bread md^irig ftour. Buying French’s White Lily Flour is purely ‘‘a business proposition”—getting the BEST VALUE for YOUR MONEY. The great majority of people do not secure a competency by winning a fortune all at one time. It usually comes by saving a little here, and a little there; cutting down expense in one place and lop­ ping off more in some other way. • You can cut down your living expenses by buying French’s White Lily Flour. You will use every'particle of it, and you will not have to throw away any spoiled bakings. French's White Lily Flour is made in a different way than any other flour you can buy. The grain, after being thoroughly cleaned, is put through 1 7 sets of rolls—over four times as many as will be found in the ordinary mill. Every bit of the flour "goodness” of the grain is extracted, and every particle is reduced to a smooth, even granulation. Flour made in this way absorbs the yeast and moist­ ure evenly. You never find any hard "lumps,” where the moisture hasn t penetrated. The loaves bake evenly all the way through. You never have any spoiled bakings. You get the BEST BREAD for your family. When ever you buy a sack of French’s, White* Lily Flour the housewife can know in advance, that it is going to be just like the last sack of it that you bought, because every particle of flour-goes through exactly the SAME PROCESS. There is always SATIS­ FACTION in such a purchase. It means a lot to the housewife too, because she knows in advance just how her bread, cakes, pies and pastries are coming out. For over 40 years French’s White Lily has been a household word in the homes of Barry County, because of its superior QUAL­ ITY. It is a product with character and reputation behind it, built up.by years and years of patient thought and study and ALWAYS with the orie aim in view to give the people the very best "flour val­ ue” for their money. French’s White Lily is better to-day than ever before, both be­ cause of our complete new equipment of machinery of the very latest models, and the fact that we have profited by our 41 years of experience in making nothing but French’s White Lily Flour. If you have never used French’s White Lily Flour in your home, why not order just one sack for trial. Every sack of it is sold on the positive GUARANTEE that if it doesn’t please you, you can return it and get "your money back," so you run absolutely no chance in ordering it. Why not try it? Every Grocer and Elevator Man in Barry County has it. $1 and $1.50 Q-F.

FAQS TWBLVB. A Word of Explanation W® I fully appreciate that the quality of Sweetheart Bread made last week was not up to its usual high standard, and 1 want to explain the reason WHY. The whole trouble was on account of my having to use new flour—^-made from this season s grain. Owing to the extreme wet weather this year there was an unusual amount of moisture in the grain. The only way to get it out of the flour is to let the flour stand, for a few weeks and “season." But I had to have flour AT ONCE to supply my trade, and could not get any old flour of the right quality. I calculated that 1 had enough old flour on hand to last until the new flour was "seasoned." But for several months past my bread trade has been growing by leaps and bounds. For instance during the month of September we baked and sold 33,­ 650 loaves of "Sweetheart" bread. July and August were each nearly as large. So I used up my supply of old flour sooner than 1 expected. In conducting this Bakery it has ALWAYS been my aim to have everything JUST RIGHT. If any customers were “put out" or “excited," over receiving one loaf that was not up to standard, 1 wish that they could imagine what my feelings were, when* appreciating my responsibility for over 1,000 loaves each day. 1 hese little difficulties will happen once in a while, but 1 wish to assure everyone that they worry me far more than they seem to worry my customers, as the sale of Sweetheart Bread is growing every day. • But my "flour trouble” has now been over come. I had an expert "Flour Dem­ onstrator" come here and show us how to overcome the difficulty, so there will be no further annoyance from that source. - But "flour trouble" is by no means confined to Hastings this year. Bakers in the large cities everywhere are having the same difficulty that we have had in using flour made from this year’s wheat. We assure all patrons that we appreciate their loyalty. We further assure them that it is always our aim to make "Sweetheart" Bread the very best that can be made, and the wonderful, increase in its sale proves that we have succeeded. We use ^nothing but the best materials that money can buy, and by baking in such large quan­ tities as we do, can supply you with the best bread for LESS MONEY than any housewife can buy the materials and do her own baking for if she will count her hard work at anything at all.

The man who smokes regularly, soon discovers whether he is getting "quality” at a cigar counter and acts ac­ - cordingly. Every brand of Cigars must "Have' ‘'quality"— before it is permitted to go into our cases. We KNOW the quality of Cigars and Tobaccos that - the taste of the smokers of this community de­ mands, and we handle brands that are in tunc with their tastes. That's our specialty. . And being able to RETAIN the quality of Ci­ gars and Tobaccos, is just as important as buying first quality goods. That’s the reason we equipped this store with zinc-lined, dust-proof cases in which we keep- all stock, and in which we keep the tem­ perature at just the right degree by means of an au­ tomatic Electric Humidor. All Cigars and Tobaccos vhll lose much of their "quality" if they are per­ mitted to “dry out.” In our cases they cannot "dry out.” They are kept in just the proper degree of moisture..

My sole object has always been to give a SQUARE DEAL fin^f to both BUYER and SELLER, just what is right land fair and square between man and man. I have arranged to soon have associated with me a very competent real estate man who will con tinue the established policy of this firm. After 30 years in the real estate business, 10 years of which have been in this county and in­ volved hundreds of thousands of dollars of business in the aggregate, it is indeed gratifying to me to KNOW that I have the confidence, respect and good will.of EVERY CUSTOMER with whom I have dealt. There are things in the world that we should regard as better than money.

We are confident that if you will do this all through the winter you will find at the end of the year you are motley ahead, and will have saved your wife all that hard work. You send to us through tlie summer.months, and why? Because we can make you more money than yoti can make by churning at home. We can do the sarpe for you in the winter. And if anything, make you more than we can in the summer and why? Just because the prices as a rule are better in the winter than in the summer. Our price last week was 38 cents. Did you get anywhere near that for your dairy butter? Well if you didn't you are losing money, and had better set the chum out in the wood shed and forget you have it. The best proof, that we can make you more nv • than you can by churning, is that our business is growing rapidly.

We Have Sold Many Bargains in Wall Paper During our Sale Because they were REAL BARGAINS A great many people in Hastings and Barry county have been taking advantage of the big wall paper sale we have been conducting during thd past two weeks. Not many times during the past have house owners had such an opportunity to buy splendid patterns of wall paper at such low prices as we are offering them for at this autumn clcan-up sale. There are patterns for every room in the house—patterns of high grade papers too— at prices below what would be expected for low grade papers( ' If you ever expect to paper that room, our bargains in wall paper will enable you to do so now very cheaply and when finished will look better than you expected. During the past few years we have enjoyed a splendid trade'in wall paper during each season, but never before have people responded.so quickly and-in such large numbers to the bargains we have offered, as they nave this time. They have always found that we did just as we advertised and they have_confidence in us. Many homes in the city, many in the country have rooms papered, or soon will be paper­ ed, with some of these bargain papers we have sold since this sale started. We still have quite a large number of specif rooms left, and we’ have them on conven­ ient display, so you can easily see if they are what you want. You are invited to bring the measurement of your room or roomsand look at these wall paper bargains which we have left. Don’t wait too long, for they are going very fast.

Offers more opportuni­ ties to women than any other society. Good training and future success, love of humanity and protection of helpless little ones. A splendid opportunity for broad-minded and sympa­ thetic women to join this great fraternal chain of one hun­ dred and eighty-six thousand women banded together for the betterment of their own sex. This Organizaton has a national reputation for this great work in the interest of women, and has already paid into homes of deceased arid . distressed members over twelve million dollars, every dol­ lar going into some home in time of want and fdistress. We cannot begin to record the deeds of loving' kindness and sympathy that have gone hand in hand with these dis­ bursements. This Organization has risen to high position in Fraternal Insurance through the hearty co-operation of its members and has built up by the management of its officers, a reserve of over eight million dollars. The Woman’s Benefit Association of the Maccabees was founded in Michigan by Michigan women in 1892; the cor­ nerstone of its own building, laid in Port Huron, October 22, 1915. being the first woman’s benefit association in the world to erect its own building.

I decided that tbo man who had smoked and chatted with me so affabjy on that hot. breathless night In tho Mediterranean must remain In Ignorance ot my pres­ ence, or of my knowledge.

ABRAHAM LINCOLN ONCE SAID ‘You fool people all the time; and all the people some of the time; but you can’t fool ALL THE PEOPLE ALL THE TIME.” In these days of compulsory education, and weekly and daily newspapers going into every home, it doesn’t take the public very long to determine whether an article has “MERIT” back, of it. An individual, firm, or corporation, could spend thousands, hundreds of thousands, and even millions of dollars advertising an article, but if it didn’t “LIVE UP" to the advertising, it would be dopmed to fail­ ure. The individual, firm, or corporation that attempts to deceive the public by its advertising is only DECEIVING ITSELF. In other words an article must "MAKE GOOD," and keep on "MAKING GOOD" to meet with continued public favor. For years there has been far more French’s White Lily Flour consumed in Barry County than of ALL OTHER—FLOURS‘COM­ BINED. That one.FACT alone is convincing PROOF of its SU­ PERIOR QUALITY, because you don’t find such a large majority of the people using the same brand of flour year in and year out un­ less they KNOW that it is a BETTER VALUE FORTHEIR MON­ EY. In other words "you can’t fool all the people all the time.” If you haven’t used French's White Lily Flour within the past year you can’t know how good it is. You will find it by far the BEST flour, and therefore the most economical, that you can use in your home. Flour is really the basis of all living, afid your faftiily is entitled to the best you can provide. You do not buy flour for senti- mental reasons—its purely "business. This is an age of “machinery." The concern having the BEST equipment of machinery, and the best of skilled hfclp to operate its plant, lyis a distinct advantage when it comes to manufacture. This large mill has a implete equipment of the very 'latest "flour-making machinery. We in night _ and day, year in and year out, which guar­ quality antees a better, smoother v f of flour;■ we operate * by our own water power, the best and steadiest power known; we have the best of skilled help that money can get. Besides all of these distinct advantages, possessed by no other mill that we know of, is our own experience of more than 41 years in doing nothing but making French’s White Lily Flour. Any mill, equipped with any kind of flour making machinery, no matter how ancient, can make flour. • But it won’t be the BEST QUALITY flour, and it stands to reason that it won’t be flour that you can DEPEND UPON year in and year out, as you can upon French's White Lily Flour.

Second, the strength ob the wagon; and Third, the way the wagon is finished. . Now the first and third propositions, spoken of here, that is quality and finish, are admired by every one to be first class: that there is none better. Now when you consider that every hub is black birch; that every spoke and rim is while oak; and that every axle is hickory: and larger at the butt of the skein than any other make of wagon, you will readily admit that the second propo­ sition is also correct. Now if our claims for this axle, that it is stronger than on other makes of wagons, is correct then it oiouru. xnsrru. .«> th. w.gon buy«. Be sure and examine this cut and decide for yourself.

When you buy flour made in the ordinary mill you. can’t tell much about it. Maybe it will be good; maybe it won’t. Chances are about even. When it comes to bakihg with it, the housewife will THROW AWAY all the baking that isn’t good, because no housewife likes to pa­ rade her "poor baking" even in her own home. And have you ever thought that every bit of poor baking THROWN AWAY really ADDS TO THE COST OF THE FLOUR? For instance if you buy a sack of flour, and half of it has to be thrown away in poor bakings, your flour is really COSTING YOU TWICE AS MUCH as it should. For that reason French’s White Lily Flour really costs you LESS MONEY because you never have to throw any of it away. When you buy French’s White Lily you USE ALL OF IT. When you buy the other kind you USE SOME OF IT. Why Not Order a Sack of French’s J | White Lily Just F or a Trial? Every Grocer and Elevator In Barry County Sells it. Do it Now.

One day the bak­ ings may be good ; the next day they may be very bad, and the housewife may have prepared the bakings in exactly the same way each time. You take flour made in ordinary flour mills that run a few hours each day and then stop, the QUALITY of the flour MUST vary. You can’t make, good flour in a mill where the machinery has been stopped long enough to get “cooled off.” Stopping and starting machinery AL­ WAYS AFFECTS THE QUALITY of the flour. If you happen to get flour that is made BEFORE the machinery has got "warmed up” and running smooth and even, you will get POOR FLOUR. ' bill.

Floyd JLmw attended 'Grand Rapid* rireet. <WHIIH<I<IIIH ujmo A PLAIN TALK About The "Club Cigar Store” and Reasons Why Tobacco Users Should Patronize it. The standard of the Club Cigar Store demands the VERY BEST that every part of the great Tobacco -organiza­ tions of the country can give. Nothing leas would measure up to thc high class service of this store. ■ But we regard “GOOD BUYING" in LARGE QUANTITIES as by no means the most important item.- We consider "KEEPING OUR STOCK RIGHT," away from all DUST, DIRT and FILTH, and at the proper temperature, aa even MORE IMPORTANT than "good buying." ‘ We fee! that the Tobacco Business is different than almost any other business, because Cigars, Cheroots, Smoking Tobaccos, Plug or Fine Cut Chewing Tobaccos that are "BOUGHT RIGHT" must be "KEPT RIGHT" in order to re­ tain the "QUALITY," or "FLAVOR," that YOU PAY FOR. No matter HOW MUCH,you msy pay for your Cigars and Tobaccos, if they haye not been KEPT RIGHT, they will he DRIED OUT, and will have LOST that rich Tobacco FLA­ VOR tbat is really what YOU BUY when you invest in Ci­ gars, Smoking Tobacco, Plug or Fine Cut Chewing Tobacco. We believe that keeping stock CLEAN and SANI­ TARY is even MORE IMPORTANT in the Tobacco businessjjiAn iiMlGiegLany .Qthsr, It is avidsnt that if Cigars and ?BN|BOXE8.ttA QPEN’PHELVES t OPEN PAILS on the flooV, as they ihitqtes, thci>iy8r!,.UGtpjily DRY <AVOR, but MUST also catch their share of thcfDUST, IT and FILTH that N|Ue dpwn in a store. ssumOT ■ ---------- J . :i!M .<:a nH-mi-1-1 •thu. *' DinHiae of Dowling Clark’.

She should so manage that by applying a little reasoning power, eliminating waste here and a useless motion there, she can obtain the best results with the least possible out­ lay of time, money, and energy.” 'Woman’s work-ought to be estimated in money the same as a man's. Women are earners and in reality have saved more money per capita than men, because it is in the home where there are the greatest possibilities of saving. Where yearly incomes average from $ I 500 to $ 1800, 80 per cent, of that in­ come usually is spent for food, clothing and shelter. Since the woman is the one who does the spending, she should be able to spend wisgly and obtain the greatest possible value for the least possible outlay. Housewife, are you conducting your household along lines of true economy? Or are you making your family go with­ out certairi nutritious foods because the . , prices are high, while at the same time throwing away more than enough good food to offset the amount you think you are saving? A recent number of “The Ladies Home Journal” contained a good article by Mrs. Christine Frederick on how to ar­ range a family expense budget under the seven headings of: Shelter, Food, Cloth­ ing, Operating Expenses, Savings, Luxur­ ies and Advancement. There is no universal answer to the question of how the income should be dis­ tributed in these various divisions because the apportionment depends uppn the size of income and the number in the family , the taste and education; the locality; the occupation or social standing. However, it is suggested that in incomes of $ I 200 or $ 1600 a year or thereabouts the propor­ tion should be: Shelter, 23 per cent; food, 30 per cent; clothing, 14 per cent; operat­ ing, 1 3 per cent; savings, 10 per cent; lux­ uries, 4 per cent; advancement, 6 per cent. Many persons spend nearer 10 per cent than 4 per cent for luxuries, and more important things suffer, including the sav­ ings account. The advantage of keeping household accounts include: The ability to see at a glance al! items of expense. Makes possible a comparison of items to see where greater economy can be prac­ ticed. . , Any one i(em can be compared with the whole budget, thus showing its rela­ tive importance and giving further help to­ wards wise spending and saving. ’ Hoe 3 History of, Barry Township and Personal Recollections' good school was kept there thnt >1 I RlgU SCbOul Report for month ending* October SJ IMS: No. day* taught. 20.

Wilf Help Any Woman to Build up a Reputation for Being a “Good Cook” We-are extremely particular about the manufacture of French’s White Lily Flour, because we make it for "particular" people. There is nothing that a woman should-take more pride in than in her baking. To have the reputation of being a "splendid cook is a distinction that every woman covets. But such a reputation cannot be built up, when she is provided with.flour of poor qual­ ity, with which good bakings are an impossibility. We INVITE YOU to test French’s White Lily in any way you like—for color, flavor, texture or purity. If you do not like it as well OR BE I TER than any flour you ever used remember you can return it to your Grocer or Eleva­ tor man and get your "money back." You will find our GUARANTEE printed on EVERY SACK. ’ We are pleased to give this “guarantee,” because French’s White Lily Flour is successfully meeting the most exacting requirements qf the most particular house­ wives in Barry County, in Michigan, and in many outside states. Bread, biscuits, cookies, cakes and pies baked from French’s White Lily Flour are light, tender, flaky, and in every way healthful and appetizing. They are nev­ er soggy and heavy, nor sour and unhealthy. French’s White Lily Flour is made for women who want the best, the most healthful and wholesome, and MOST ECONOMICAL. There is probably more "false economy" practiced in buying flour than in buying almost any other food product. Sometimes people get the idea that they are "saving." a few cents when they buy a sack of flour that may cost a little less than French’s White Lily. But when _ien they use the ordinary Hour flour they get bakings ot of poorer quality, and often have to throw a lot of it away. Every pound of flour thrown away increases the cost of the flour just that much. And on all bakings thrown away you lose not only the GOST of the flour, but all the hard work involved in preparing it. Now if you are .one of those who have been "experi­ menting," or buying flour that possibly may cost you a few pennies less per sack, you are having "baking troub­ les." You will eventually come back to the "Old Reli­ able” French’s White Lily Flour that you KNOW is AL­ WAYS GOOD, and that you can always DEPEND UP­ ON, because you have found that ."experimenting" with flour is EXPENSIVE. Why not order a sack of French’s White Lily Flour next time and give it a trial? Your Grocer or Elevator man sells it. You will find that it will solve your baking troubles, and that it will be by far the MOST ECONOMI­ CAL flour you can buy. The Middleville Roller Mills Middleville R. T.

There is only one way to do business successfully. To always deal with others as you would wish to be dealt by. To tell the truth at all times. Do not exaggerate the property for sale. Be absolutely honest. To misrepre­ sent, to resort to a subterfuge is only inviting failure, and one’who resorts to such tactics is no competitor to the honest business man. Warranty Deeds.

Cham- In all the hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of farms I have sold in Barry County, not a single instance but what the purchaser could or has sold for more than he paid for. it. Surely that is a record one ought to be proud of and I am. It is the policy that will be continued as long as I stay in business, and I am going to.stay, as my business has increased ten fold since I dissolved my former partnership. It had to be done as two policies could not be maintained. The REAL ESTATE BUSINESS is a big proposi­ tion and it requires something besides strong legs and the ability to run a “Ford” to conduct it successfully. If one doesn’t.believe it, just look around town and see what has happened to a few of the would be real estate fellows with strong legs, in the last few years. Then there is the fel­ low that reaches up in the air and gets something and runs to the newspaper office and tells the office girl: “I sold a farm in Maple Grove last week to Mr. G. of. Kazoo.” When you see anything like that nail it then and there, it is a “canard.” For this day ONLY we will sell you Crystal Pride Creamery Butter at WHOLESALE PRICE in any quantity you want. If you call at the creamery and get it. Pure pasteurized creamcry butter, put in an air tight package, what more could you ask in these days of germ dodging? Our butter, and the package that contains H. Jenkin it is as near germ proof as is possible to have it. Why take any chances on the ordi- $32<K». l’ly»M-s N. Jenkin* and wife t< nary kind?

History of the Early Settle­ ment of Thornapple Township ANNOUNCEMENT THE ALFALFA CEREAL COMPANY of Lansing offers the public of Central Michigan an unusually attractive investing proposition. THE COMPANY WAS ORGANIZED last May. It is manufacturing and selling the famous Alfa-Lusa soda fountain drink, together with gum, candy, tea and table syrup. Fifteen other saleable products will be added to the company's output in the nqstr future. DEMAND FOR ALFALFA CEREAL products is already excellent, as may be demonstrated by reference to our sales records of the last four months. An extensive sales and advertising campaign is to be carried on.-and the company's products will be placed on sale all over the United States and Canada. SOME OF MICHIGAN'S LEADING business and professional men are financially interested and actively engaged in the affairs of the com­ pany. Judge O. S. Cross, of Allegan, is vice-president. P. W. Cross, of Detroit, is devoting his entire time to the company as secretary and treasurer. C. Rouser, Lansing druggist, is a director. Local stockholders include J. H. Moores, Dr. J. G. Rulison, Bert Phelps, Dr. A. M. Campbell, H. A. Sheffer and many others. THE LANSING CHAMBER OF COMMERCE, after careful investigation, lent its approval and gave its endorsement to the company. AT THE PAVEDWAY INDUSTRIAL EXPOSITION you may see the company’s exhibit, sample its products—and if interested from an in­ vesting viewpoint you may talk with President F. W. Bower or Sec­ retary Cross. _ ■ WE ADVISE THAT POTENTIALJnvestors do not delay in investigating the company and its prospects for a tremendous growth, as the block of stock now offered for sale is small.

Or they will accept a plug of Chewing Tobacco from an open crate on an unpro­ tected shelf; or Fine Cut Chewing Tobacco from an open pail sitting on the floor, both of which get their share of all the dust, dirt, and germs that settle down after “sweep­ ing out.” or blown in through open doors apd windows.

NINETEEN l dollar Day is Your Day“&)hen you are old and gray and full of sleep, and nodding by the fire"— li)m. gutter Keats. A. A. ANDERSON, Cuhler. I HE above quotation expresses a state which is bound to come to everyone—a time when they are old and unable to provide the necessities of life. Fortunate are we all, indeed, if we have so provided for this time during our earlier and more vigorous life that we may with comfort and peace of mind sit “nodding by the fire” in our own chimney corner. It is only by making provisions for such time in life, -idhen you are old and gray and full of sleep and nodding by the fire.” that such a condition may be enjoyed. The time to do the providing is DURING THE MONEY EARNING PERIOD OF YOUR LIFE. The best time to start a Savings Account and provide for a safe and comfort­ able old age is NOW. The days slowly creep away—days lengthen into months and months to years and soon a generation has come and gdne. . Do you recall the things you planned to do YEARS AGO—the promise you made your­ self—and then you put it off, and-^again you promised yourself in your mind you would do so and so—did you do it? Well, maybe! But hundreds have never done the saving they planned to do and today instead of a neat little sum in the bank they have only the memory of plans unfulfilled. Don’t you do that way!

Use French’s White Lily Flour and You’ll Be Sure of Good Results The real satisfaction and delight of your dinner on that day will depend very largely upon your good whole­ some bread, your delicious pies, cookies and pastries. These all require flour that you KNOW you can depend upon—like French's White Lily. The “Thanksgiving Dinner" is the one meal in. the whole year that you want just right. It’s the day of pleas­ ant family.gatherings and re-union of friends. Your chil­ dren, who are away to school, are looking forward to the minute when they can leave for home to spend Thanks­ giving with parents and friends. Sons and daughters, who have settled down in life, are literally counting the hours between now and Thanksgiving Day, when they will go home to visit father and mother, and enjoy the "Thanks­ giving Dinner" that mother knows so well how to pre­ pare. It’s one of the very few days in the whole year given over to those happy reunions that count for so much in life, and memories of which are enshrined in the hearts of many men, women, boys and girls. But one of the most pleasing features of the day will be the Thanksgiving dinner. When you plan your Thanksgiving dinner, why not order a sack of French’s White Lily Flour just for a trial, if you have never used it? You'll find it the best and most economical flour you can use. There- is nothing made with ordinary flour, which cannot be MADE BE 11 ER by using French’s White Lily. You will find that everything you make for your Thanksgiving dinner will have an exceptional lightness, whiteness and the delicious flavor that is a part of French’s White Lily. You will be glad that you made the trial. French’s White Lily Flour is made differently than other flours—it’s made BETTER. Our more than 41 years spent in making nothing but this one brand of flour, has given us an experience in the proper blending of grains that is almost invaluable. With our entire new equipment of all the latest and best models of flour-making machin­ ery, we CLEAN our grain better; we make our flour better and cleaner. That's why there is such a great de­ mand for it; that’s why we have to run this big mill night and day, year in and year out; that's why there is more French's White Lily Flour sold in Barry County than of all other flours combined. . ’ ~ • Begin to plan your Thanksgiving dinner now, and in­ clude-a sack of French’s White Lily Flour just for trial, if you have never used it before. If you will just try it once you will never be without it. The Middleville Roller Mills Middleville R. T.

Use French’s White Lily Flour and You’ll Be Sure of Good Results ~ You can have turkeys, ducks, geese and chicken ga­ ____ lore for your Thanksgiving dinner, but if you don’t have good, white, flaky bread, choice pies, cakes or pastries the meal will lose much of its anticipated pleasure. The real satisfaction and delight of your dinner on that day will depend very largely upon your good whole­ some bread, your delicious pies, rookies and pastries. These all require flour that you KNOW you can depend upon—like French's White Lily. The “Thanksgiving Dinner" is the one meal in the whole year that you want just right. It’s the day of pleas­ ant family gatherings and re-union of friends. Your chil­ dren, who are away to school, are looking forward to the minute when they can leave for home to spend Thanks• giving with parents and friends. Sons and daughters, who nave settled down in life, are literally counting the Ijours between now and Thanksgiving Day, when they will go home to visit father and mother, and enjoy the "Thanks­ giving Dinner" that mother knows so well hpw to pre­ pare. It's one of the very few days in the whole year •* given over to those happy reunions that count for so much in life, and memories of which are enshrined in the hearts of many men, women, boys and girls. Bat one of the most pleasing features of the day will be the Thanksgiving dinner. When you plan your Thanksgiving dinner, why not order a sack of French’s White Lily Flour just for a trial, if you have never used it? You’ll find it the best and most economical flour you can use. There is nothing made with ordinary flour, which cannot be MADE BETTER by using French’s White . Lily/ You will find that everything you make for your Thanksgiving dinner will have an exceptional lightness, whiteness and the delicious flavor that is a part of r rehch’s White Lily. You will be ^lad that you made the trial. French’s White Lily Flour is made differently than other flours—it’s made BETTER. Our more than 41 years spent in making nothing but this one brand of flour, has given us an experience in the proper blending of grains that is almost invaluable. With our entire new equipment of all the latest and best models of flour-making machin­ ery, we CLEAN our grain better; we make our flour better and cleaner. That’s why there is such a great de­ mand for it; that’s yvhy we have to run this big mill night and day, year in and year out; that's why there is more French’s White Lily Flour sold in Barry County than of all other flours combined. . Begin to plan your Thanksgiving dinner now, and in­ clude a sack of French’s White Lily Flour just for trial, if , you have never used it before. If you will just try it once you will never be without it. The Middleville Roller Mills Middleville R. T. FRENCH, Proprietor D. C. ADAMS, M. D.

Mr. Trimhad joined forces with Mr. Morehouse,' a real estate man from Delton and it wasn’t long before they had things making and had a buyer for my property. This is prTof enough for me that these gentlemen are wide awake, hustling, business men and I would advise any one that has city or (arm property for sale, or want to exchange it, and want to get quick results to list it with either of these gentlemen as they are perfectly reliable and know the valuation of property in this locality thoroughly.

I Users of French’s White Lily Flour cannot appreciate how much our running NIGHT“qnd DAY enables us to lo\yer the cost~oflhe flour, and therefore enables us to KEEP DOWN THE PRICE, and also to maintain its HIGH QUALITY. J .• By running night and day our taxes are no more; our insurance is no more: office expenses are no more, interest on investment is no more, and many other items no more. In short running 24 hours a day more than cuts our GENERAL EXPENSE in two, and we are able to get a 24-HOUR "OUT PUT" at a IO-HOUR "EXPENSE." Our GENERAL EXPENSE is practically no more for running 24 hours each day, than it would be if we only ran six hours or ten hours, as the ordinary mills do. * In any manufacturing plant the “general expense" is one of the most important items. It includes taxes, insurance, interest on in­ vestment, interest on indebtedness, book-keeping, power, light, ,heat and many other items. A mill may stop running-, but its "general expense keeps right on going—and it goes fast. Every plant tries to keep its general expense down to the very lowest figure possible. For that reason it is ECONOMY to run^i plant night and day'when the volume of business will justify it. Our customers-settled this proposition for us. The demand for French s White Lily Flour has been so great that for the last twentyfive years or more, we have been compelled to run this mill night and day to meet our orders. Women have come to KNOW that they can ALWAYS depend upon French’s White Lily Flour. Year in and year out they have found that it never varies in QUALITY; they have found the last sack was just like the one they bought before; they KNOW that if they prepare their bakings in about the same way each time, the RESULTS will always be the same—always good. “Baking days" in the home are always the most arduous for the housewife, because she takes pride in her baking. As she KNOWS what French’s White Lily Flour will do; as she knows in advance that her bqkings will ALWAYS be of the best; she naturally clings to the flour that she KNOWS. She will have no other flour than French’s White Lily. No matter how attractive looking the sack may be, nor how glittering advertisements may be written about it. If we did not own our plant, our water-power and our lighting plant, and if we were not able to cut our "general expense” down to the very lowest possible notch, by running night and day, we could not afford to sell French’s White Lily Flour at the price we do, which is NO MORE than you pay for ordinary flour. The saving that we make in manufacturing, we put right back into bettering the QUALITY of the flour. We prepare our grain better than other mills do; we clean it better ; we put it through FOUR OR FIVE TIMES AS MANY SETS OF ROLLS as Other mills do, re­ ducing the flour to a finer, smoother, and more even quality. All -this COSTS US more money, but our low "general expense" en­ ables us to do it, and to sell you French’s White Lily Flour for the same money, or less, than ordinary flour would cost you. Why not order a sack of French’s White Lily just to try it out? Why not dn.it today? PHYSICIAN AND SURGEON Office—Post Office Building Hours—10-12 a. m.; 3-6 p. m.

Hastings National Bank Is Member Bessmer Bros In each district the National Banks which qualified to become Member Banks and place their reserve funds with the Reserve Bank of their district, came under the protection of the entire Federal Reserve System of the U. S. Government. • When you carry your money in the HASTINGS NATIONAL BANK you have the assurance that back of it stands the Federal Reserve Bank at Chicago and the UNITED STRENGTH OF ALI. MEMBER BANKS. Back of the Federal RESERVE BANK AT CHICAGO stand all th? Federal Reserve Banks *of the country and the Federal Reserve Board and back of this Board stands the Government of the United States. TWO VERY VALUABLE FEATURES OF THE FEDERAL RESERVE SYSTFM- Member Banks Can Loan on Real Estate Under the Federal Reserve system the Member Banks may Ioan money upon unincumbered real estate. This will enable The Hastings National Bank to gradually extend its business among farmers and place it in position where it can be of greater assistance to them. If you are a farmer and do not carry an account as yet with the HAS­ TINGS NATIONAL BANK you should open one at once and enable us to become acquainted with you, so when you need money we may be in a position to serve you. MEMBER BANKS CAN OBTAIN CASH FROM FED­ ERAL RESERVE BANKS In every locality there are times when money is greatly heeded, cs-. pecially during the movement of the crops. It has often been impossible for banks to secure sufficient money to loan to their patrons during such times, because they had no source from which they could get money even upon their assets or absolute­ ly good paper. _ Under the Federal Reserve system MEMBER BANKS can send good notes or other securities to the FEDERAL RESERVE BANKS of their district and obtain ACTUAL CURRENCY, to meet their customers' needs.

When it comes to choosing a Christmas Gift, after you have looked at it from all angles, we believe a Photograph is one of the most desirable gifts. Choosing a photograph as a gift to your friends re­ lieves you of the necessity of selecting so many different gifts and nothing is more appreciated than a photo. They are a very dear keep-sake. Long after other Christmas gifts are worn out or destroyed the portrait of a dear Friend remains still to bring back pleasant memories of the day when the gift was received. To those who contemplate having pictures taken for Christmas presents we would suggest that you come early to our studio. The time is getting short and it requires some time to get out good work—and that is the kind we want to do for you. t Arrange to come at your earliest convenience and avoid the confusion and disappointment which is sure-to follow later in the season. . | Keeping badly worn floors dean in winter time is no joke. . ...A new thin hardwood floor will look so much better, make* S'* ?!(ydl.k*s work AnJ. rrcit .little to put in; that you will surely want it when you know all the’ facts ah<»qt it.

Every year thousands of bushels of grain are delivered to market. It is a valuable thing to the farmers to have a RELIABLE and HONEST market at which to sell their products. We are in close* touch with the best markets for all grains and are constantly on the lookout for the place whete we can get the BEST PRICE for our produce. We do this because we want to Give The Best Price To Our Customers All we ask in the transaction is a SMALL] percentage to cover the cost of handling and a very moderate profit to us. We have FOUND THE BEST MARKET for grain and are in the market for ALL WE CAN BUY and will PAY THE TOP NOTCH MARKET PRICE FOR ALL WE CAN GET. So bring your grain here. We have all kinds of COAL to sell. No one can go wrong in buying their COAL from us. We buy COAL from thb best mines on earth and our experience in handling COAL enables us to get good quality and accept no other kind. Then, too, our reputation stands back of every transaction we make whether in coal or something else. Result* Tell The Tale.

Why French’s ™ Flour i i i ■in..-. ii i i.n.i—^— i X^XL> X Helps to Build Up Good Health and Strong Constitutions Good health and a strong constitution are worth MORE to your children than all the property you can ev­ er leave them. Without good health they will be unfit to look after anything you may bequeath them, saying nothing of their inability to provide for themselves if they are left to their own resources. You can help your children in no better way than by doing what you can to give them good health and strong constitutions. i: L 3 i . Good health depends very largely upon the RIGHT KIND of food. Good, pure, wholesome '‘bread and but­ ter" is really the basis of all living. . But you can’t have GOOD BREAD unless you have good flour. There isn’t any special ’’knack" in making the BEST BREAD when you have the BEST FLOUR. You will notice that the wottien who have the reputations of making the mo?t delicious bread invariably use French’s White Lily Flour. They KNOW that EVERY TIME they prepare their bakings in the same way that their bakings will be the very best. They know this to be true because EXPERIENCE has taught them that French’s White Lily Flour is ALWAYS THE. SAME, and that they can always depend upon it. French’s White Lily Flour is not an 'experiment. It is made after a PLAN, that over 41 YEARS of hard work in making nothing but that one brand has proven to be the ONLY WAY to make the BEST FLOUR. . The reason why flour made in the ordinary mills does not prove satisfactory, is because the grain has to be RUSHED through too rapidly.’ The grain is put through onlj' thrqe or four sets of rolls, which make an even, uni­ form granulation impossible. French’s White Lily Flour is put through 17 SETS OF ROLLS. Ordinary mills have to ru^h the grain through rapid­ ly in order to get a production that will make.it pay. If they took the pains that we do in MAKING FLOUR RIGHT, it would cut down their production to such an extent that the venture would be unprofitable. By running this mill night and day, and owning our own water power and lighting plant, we are able to make flour that is RIGHT; that you can DEPEND UPON; and put it on the market at the same price, or even lower, than you have to pay for ordinary flour. You want the best flour for your money; you want your children to enjoy good, rugged health. Why not or­ der, just one sack of French’s White Lily Flour for trial? Why not CONVINCE YOURSELF that it is all that we claim for it—the BEST FLOUR ON THE MARKET, and sold at a price no greater than you have to pay for ordin­ ary flour? One sack will convince you. ’ Why not TO­ DAY? The Middleville Roller Mills Middleville R. T.

L & & S' g Christmas will soon be here, and housewives all over Barry County will soon be planning for the Christmas dinner. Sons and daughters will be home from school and college, or perhaps friends will be present to enjoy the blessings and pleasures at the glad Christmas season. So the Christmas Dinner wants to be JUST RIGHT. ' . Our aim is to make this the community bake shop, where people can come and buy a great variety of Baked Goods for even LESS MONEY THAN THEY COULD BUY THE MATERIALS AND DO THEIR OWN BAKING. We have succeeded in doing that by reason of buying flour in CARLOAD LOTS, other ma­ terials in large quantities, and doing our baking in large lots. People have come to KNOW thi QUALJTY of our Baked Goods, and to appreciate that OUR PRICES ARE VERY REASONABLE. For the Christmas season we always have a choice assortment of baked dainties on hand, and will have an unusually fine line this year. We will have PLUM PUDDING; CAKES (a large variety); COOKIES (many kinds); PASTRIES and the choicest line of dainty baked goods we have ever had. It will pay any housewife, who is planning to have a Christmas dinner, to call and see how thoroughly we have planned to help her, by providing such an ex­ cellent line of Baked goods from which io select. - PHONE 381 ball and visit tho mysterious couple. • A number of ynnng people attended 'rho children have enmmeneci) pre­ paring for Christmas.

FOR ITS USES DECISION REACHED AFTER . THOROUGH INVESTIGATION Committee of Expeds Beaches! Unanimous Decision In Mutter. Dear Madam Are you using a PATENT FLOUR? If so let pie say one word to you in regard to the DICTATOR HIGH PATENT FLOUR, MANUFACTURED BY THE HASTINGS MILLING CO., HASTINGS, MICH. In the first place, Mr. Kerr, manager, is considered by the millers of Michigan, to be one of the best judges of wheat in the state, and has been in the MILLING BUSINESS ' since a boy, that shows that he has had a wide experience in the MILLING BUSINESS. • The mill is one of the best equipped mills, with modern machinery, and the volume of business this mill does, keeps it in the right temperature, which is necessary for making a HIGH PATENT FLOUR. This flour has to be slicked against the flours with which it comes in competition, and it stands to reason that it must come up to the standard or it would not be handled by so many different dealers. What sacks we have put out on its MERIT have given SATISFACTION and we will do by you, asiwe have done by others, by giving the same GUARANTEE. IF IT DOES NOT GIVE PERFECT SATISFACTION, WE WILL GIVE YOUR MONEY BACK. In every sack you find a coupon, which is valuable for PREMIUMS. They do not have to use these coupons to sell the goods, as some people might think, as you know many large houses use the coupon. It is what is called the PROFIT SHARING PLAN, and these coupons on any line are worth saving, enclosed you find a CATALOGUE. Please look through it carefully. The prices on the DICTATOR HIGH PATENT FLOUR, compare with any Patent flour in this section of the country. , Hoping you will give THE DICTATOR HIGH PATENT FLOUR A TRIAL THE NEXT TIME, and we cordially invite you to our store, I remain. • Yours very respectfully, EVERYWHERE‘'DICTATOR" IS MEETING WITH HIGHEST APPROVAL BY ALL WHO TRY ftnsntte -Wr.-Mti’ff,*‘ urmrot? the part of the BANNEH t<gr t-Juli’cc-',. .:itir1.-d •• MRS.

The cafes of life are laid aside for the day, and good will and good cheer abound. The world stops from its hard grind and pays tribute to "Peace on Earth, good will towards men.” From all parts of the universe, the thoughts of men, women and children revert to the old home—to father, mother and loved ones there—and many a surprise there will be as some absent son, daughter or friend unexpectedly "walks in” to make more glad the Christmas of 1915. The ‘’Christmas Dinner," in many a home, will be the ^vent of the year. Sons and daughters will come from school and college to complete a family circle, unitecrin happiness and sanctified by those holy associations of ‘‘home," that should be held sacred in every heart. . , __ _ It is a pleasure to us to KNOW that for more than_41 YEARS French’s White Lily Flour has been used in thousands of homes in Barry County. It brought cheer, comfort and SATISFACTION to the homes of "Old Pio­ neers" then, just as it will bring them to YOUR home NOW if you use it. When it comes to flour, French’s White Lily stands in a class by itself. It is the BEST flour on the market, yet it COSTS YOU NO MORE than is charged for ordinary flour. A great many people wonder HOW we can afford to sell French’s White Lily at the same price, or evep a lower price, than flour made in the ordinary mills. The answer will be easy, when you know that we run this big mill night and day, year in and year out, which cuts our "general expense" in two; therf-we own cur own mill, and water power—the BEST and CHEAPEST powfr known. The economies we make in manufacture, we put right back into MAKING FLOUR BETTER than other mills can make it, by rea­ son of our new and up-to-date equipment. If you have never used French’s White Lily Flour why not begin now? Why not use it for your Christmas bakings? You will never be without it if you will give it one fair trial. You will find that it will cut down your living expenses, and will give you the BEST RESULTS. The Middleville Roller Mills Middleville Michigan Mall Carrier's Exciting Experience.'

QJliristUtas ^torp PARTONE—ITO 8 (Christmas jliusiniis And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them and the glory of the Lord shone round about them ; and they were sore afraid. And the angel said unto thern, Fear not: for, behold, 1 bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all peo­ ple. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger. And suddenly tljere was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying, Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men. And it came to pass, as the angels were gone away from them into heaven, the shep­ herds said one to another. Let us now go even unto Bethlehem, and see this thing which is come to pass, which the Lord hath made known ijnto us. And they came with haste, and found Mary and Joseph, and the bgibe ly­ ing in a manger. And when they had seen it, they made known abroad the saying which was told them concerning the child. Wtffe X There are warmer handshakings on this y night than during the past twelve- months. Friend lives in the mind of friend. There is X more charity at this time than at any other, y Poverty and scanty clothing and fireless grates X come home to the bosoms of the rich, and they & give of their abundance. The very redbreast I* of the woods enjoys his Christmas feast. X Good feeling incarnates itself in plum pudy ding. T he Master’s words, "The poor have X ye always with you," wear at this time a deep X significance. For at least one night on each y year over all Christendom there is brotherV hood. And good men, sitting amongst their *{. families, or by a solitary fire, 'when they reI member the bright light that shone over the poor clowns huddling on the Bethlehem plains 1,900 years ago, the apparition of shin­ ing angels overhead, the song "Peace on earth and good will toward men," which for the first time hallowed the midnight air—pray for that strain’s fulfillment, that battle and strife may vex the nations no more, that not only on Christmas eve, but the'whole year round men shall be brethren, owning one father in heaven.

IOth. The other words suggested were the following, some of them being used by several contestants: Honesty, Contest, Plumber, Capable, Acquire, Ability, Hustler, Selling, Special, Leading, Quality, Welcome, Contest, Ed. Kurtz. Of these words honesty, capable, ability, success, quality, welcome, seemed to be the favorites and these are all included in the word, Service. The enthusiastic contestant whose letter expressed the thought, all that is. good, honest, capable and efficient and hustling, as found in the words Business and Salesmanship, could be expressed in the name of our popular and efficient clerk Ed. Kurtz, while not mentioning the word, Service, yet voiced what the word implies, for Mr. Kurtz makes it a rule to have every patron satisfied and all our clerks are specially instructed to e the best service to every customer. One contestant under date of 3:30 p. m., Dec. 1 wrote as follows: Hastings Drug Co. Gentlemen 12-16, 1915, 3:30 p. m. "Looking over the Hastings Banner, I read the important part of it, (the advertise­ ments), and 1 notice you have a contest on, by a seven letter word to express your business and salesmanship and I think the word is, Welcome, which we always feel at your store." What the author‘of the above letter feels, ixpressed in the word Welcome, when she comes into our store, it will be our earnest desire and effort to make every citizen of Barry County feel by the Service we shall seek to give.

Always remember to have ; . .. and you will find that GENUINE GAS COKE will prove the most economical and most satisfactory fuel that you ever burned. Hard coal sells for $8.00 per ton and GENUINE GAS COKE sells for $6.00 per ton, and our coke will go as far as hard coal. Isn’t this saving of $2.00 worth considering? An even, comfortable temperature is the object of all house heating systems and no fuel accomplishes this object as well as our GENUINE. GAS COKE. It surely is worth giving a good trial.

WE THANK OUR PATRONS For Their Generous Use of French’s White Lily Flour During the Year The year of ] 91 5 will close as the best in the his­ tory of this mill. More people are using French's White Lily Flour to-day than ever before. It has been "tried" in hundreds of new homes dur­ ing the year and has proven its QUALITY. Housewives have found that it is the one flour on which they can al­ ways depend. They have found that if they prepare their bakings in the same way each time, that their bakings will always be tlie^eame—always-goodiWe want to take this occasion to thank the many friends and uscrA of French’s White Lily Flour in-.Barry County, and all over Michigan, for their very generous patronage during the year just closing. Into every pound of Hour that has been sold has gone our very best effort, and the accumulated experi­ ence of more than 41 years in the exclusive manufacture of French’s White Lily Flour. That experience has been most valuable to us; it is really a great asset to this mill; and it is of benefit to every user of French’s White fjly. The work of making flour is similar in many ways to work-in any other line—THERE IS ALWAYS SOME­ THING NEW TO LEARN. The many ’’pointers” we have picked up; the many little things we have discovered, by means of which we could. IMPROVE the QUALITY of our output, are really of PUBLIC BENEFIT because it has given a BETTER FLOUR without increasing the cost in any way. There is really a great satisfaction in making a food product that meets with popular favor. There is great pleasure in knowing that French’s White Lily Flour has the reputation of being the BEST flour on the market for general household uses; that hread made from it tends to make the strong, robust men and women of the future; that it costs no more than ordinary flour. So we close the year of 1915 with the kindest wishes to all for a Happy and Prosperous New Year and thanks for the many favors shown French’s White Lily during the year just ending.

ADAMS <3 HART A BIG, ROOMY, SPLENDID SIX FOR THE MONEY , The iniioducticn oi a luxurious, full five-passenger touring car with the extraordi­ nary wheelbase cf tJo inches at Ute precedent-smashing price of $985, fully equipped, is an </ent oi preiound importance. Here is a car. larger, better, roomier and more beautiful than has ever been sold for anything like the price of the NEW MADISON SIX. We .iisume that the public is now sufficiently informed on motor car construction to make pos­ sible a full appreciation of this rare value. This car offers all that was formerly obtainable in cafe selling around two thousand dollars——PLUS all the new luxury and convenience f$aturee which only recent development in motor ear building could have made possible. In our judgment the Madison Six is one of the best values for the price that can be found anywhere Study the specifications, note the cplendid units that are used, in its ccns'.niction—we believe you will then agree with us.

OaKy Thought. $655.00 iftCaxif&U" The most amazing fact about the 1916 Maxwell ia its new price, $655 which is $95 less than the price of the 1915 Maxwell car, and this price includes everything: electric starter, electric lights, every modern feature, every refinement. The Maxwell earned a victory over 40 other cars in an impartial test made by the Yale University. Sheffield Scientific School. In the test made by the Yale professors, the Maxwell averaged 33.2 miles to a gallon of gasoline at 19.8 miles an hour, with a correspondingly low record for consumption of lubricating oil. Its iiglu weight, and the increased effici­ ency of the 1916 Maxwell result in making the Maxwell the record car for low "after cost," The Maxwell Motor Car $655.00 The MAXWELL is known for its beauty, its pow?r, its speed, its flexibility. The Maxwell is praised for its quick acceleration,- its unusual endurance, its marvelous hill climbing, its ability to hold the road at five or fifty miles per hour. The Maxwell is famous for its exceptionally low gasoline consumption, its freedom from repairs and the excessive tiro mileage that it gives. .

Burton &amp; Co. were listed as the proprietors of the "Republican Banner", which first appeared here on May 1, 1856, with Dr. C. S. Burton as the publisher and Norman Bailey as editor.<br /><br />Publication office was on the second floor of the Rower Block, whose address was given as "corner of State and Church"; which corner was not specified.<br /><br />The objective of this publication was to win support for the newly created Republican party and thus counteract the influence of the Barry County Pioneer, a Democratic journal that had been published here since 1851. No copies of the first three issues of The Banner were saved.<br /><br />Make-up on the first journal corresponded with a pattern typical of most local journals then published. Page one contained a few columns of advertising, fiction (often a continued story), and a short feature of no particular news value. Page one was the "literary" page.<br /><br />Page two contained the editorial barbs, along with state news, political articles, Washington items and news of the national and territorial giovernments. Page three contained a few items of local news, sandwiched inbetween the local and foreign news.<br /><br />Page four was usually solid with advertising and as such was the editor's "bread and butter" page....Locally it was the pattern until the early 1880s.<br /><br />Several changes in ownership and management occurred during the first two years of publication, with J. M. Nevins taking over ownership interests on July 16, 1857. With the issue of May 7, 1862, "The Republican Banner" became "The Hastings Banner". Editor Nevins thought the village had developed sufficiently during the past several years to merit this recognition.<br /><br />Another major change in the management of The Banner came when Nevins sold the newspaper to George M. Dewey of Niles on March 14, 1866, who then took over as editor and publisher. Dewey, an ardent Republican and somewhat of a crusader, gave considerable space to editorial comment and party affairs and also directed pointed paragraphs against the saloons and local traffic in liquor. Dewey was the grandfather of Thomas E. Dewey, Republican presidential nominee in 1944 and 1948. Editor Dewey on May 4, 1870 changed the format (and name) of the paper to "Hastings Republican Banner". <br /><br />A fire in December 1883 burned The Banner plant (located in the middle of the block on the north side of State St. across from the courthouse). Files and back issues from August 1880 to December 1883 and the January 4, 1884 issues are missing.<br /><br />The Banner was purchased by Marshall L. Cook and George Bower on July 21, 1880. They changed the name to "The Hastings Banner". M. L. Cook soon became the sole owner and remained so until July 7, 1887 when Albert Nishern (M. L.'s brother-in-law) joined him. Albert Nishern sold his interest on November 6, 1889 to William Cook (M. L.'s younger brother).<br /><br />The Cook brothers partnership held together (56 years) ... Richard Cook followed his father into the newspaper business, and Richard's son William joined him. So the Cook family ownership continued for 85 years, from 1880 to 1974, when Richard and William sold the paper to High Fullerton. J-Ad Graphics became the owners of "The Hastings Banner" in August of 1981. Text A resource consisting primarily of words for reading.
