man who was flesh and blood and y t
was the offspring of divinity. Go to
church Sunday. It wH do you good,
and it will do others good to welcome
you there. Remember our church in

Above everything else
you want dependability built
into the grain binder you buy.
You want your binder to go in
to your grain fields, no matter
what the conditions may be,
and cut the grain with the least
possible loss of time and grain.
We are selling the John Deere
Grain Binder because we know it
will give you that dependable binder
service which makes it a profitable
investment.
From the bottom up it's a
better-built grain binder. Bigger
and stronger roller-bearing wheels;
heavier one-piece main frame widely
lapped and hot-riveted together;
strong rigid platform; three packers
instead of two, assuring better
bundles in all kinds of grain these
are just a few of the features that
make it the better binder.
Another feature you will
appreciate on this binder is the
easily-operated bundle carrier.
No effort to hold it in receiving
position or to dump it. Because
the teeth rise out of the stubble
the instant you start to return the
carrier, it's exceptionally easy to
bring it back to receiving position.
And it's no trick to keep this carrier
always in easy-working order simple
adjustments are provided to accom
plish this.
The Quick Turn Tongue
Truck adds much to the effective
work of the John Deere. The wheels
turn faster than the pole, making
clean, square corners possible. Be
cause the truck axle is flexibly
mounted, both wheels hold to the
ground no matter how rough the
field may be. This keeps the binder
running straight, and takes off the
side draft from the horses.
Come and see this binder You can't make a better
binder investment.

THE FIRST 11APTIST CHURCH
"Go to church Sunday." This ad
vice has been given millions of tlmeB,
yet with some it has never been
heeded. Possibly there was a flaw
in the giving. It may not have con

note of humanity which draws The

There May Be Delay
in Moving Your Telephone
If you order your telephone moved next week
you may be told to expect a delay in getting it
done.
Nearly half a million other telephone users
in the United States will move their telephones
this month, too. And for all of them many car
loads of wire and other materials will be needed.
A general shortage of materials, as well
as a lack of sufficient transportation facilities,
is holding back factory output and the telephone
companies can't get enough supplies.
In this emergency it will be greatly appreciat
ed if you "will order the least possible changes in
your telephone equipment. And when you need
to have something done please let us know as
far in advance as possible.

"A word of throe letters oil has almost superseded in magical significance the word "gold," that has
come down the centuries as standing for the most to be desired of all material things. The lure of gold
brought about results greater than gratifying the desire to possess, for the men who sought the precious
metal, in this country as well as in other parts of the world, were the venturesome spirits who remained to
found cities, to develop the wilderness. The romance of the search for gold brings to the mind pictures of
dashing heroes now inhabiting the moving picture studios exclusively, but we love them still and they
always will be a part of the story of the west. To the man seeking fortune today, oil stands for the short
cut to affl lienor. The dreary druggery of drilling for oil docs not enter into hi,s thoughts, because he con
jures up in his mind the romantic side of seeing a sudden change in stock quotations that will spell inde
pendence for him." Denver Rocky Mountain News, July 11, 1920.

"Save for the water he drinks and the air he breathes, every possible necessity of a man's life may be
supplied either directly or indirectly through the uses of petroleum products, and even his supply of water
may be pumped by a gasoline engine. In the whole calm of natural substances it would be impossible to
find any other which rivals petroleum and its products in the great diversity of the needs they supply. The
uses to which petroleum products are put are well nigh innumerable. "Dr. JValter Sheldon Tower.
"It i3 not at all surprising then, that the 'demand for oil and its products is growing at a rate that
keeps a long distance ahead of supply. It is no cause for wonder that though that initial production of
oil has been increased by the hundreds of millions of barrels during even the past dozen years we have
less than a thres months' supply above the surface today and that surplus storage is growing less and less
as the days go by." Oil, Its History and Its Future.
The Wyoming-Northeastern Oil Company, organized by well known Nebraska men, is operating in the
eastern Wyoming oil fields. It is selling a limited amount of stock for the purpose of developing its hold
ings. You are invited to thoroughly investigate the company and its holdings. The operations of the com
pany at the present time are confined to 1040 acres in the Mule Creek and Hidden Dome fields and the
money received from, the sale of stock under the permit granted by the state of Nebraska for the sale of
stock will be used for the development of these holdings. This is a speculative security and returns on the
money invested in the stock of this corporation depend , upon the discovery of oil in paying quantities by
drilling upon the company's properties.
