is Best Plug
WHOLESOME, SATISFYING
To get the utmost of satisfying re
freshment out of tobacco, you want a
plug chew one that gives you the gen
uine flavor of rich, rine leaf.
Then, too, the most wholesome and
healthful way to use tobacco is to
rhew h and the best and cleanest
form of chewing tobacco is the plug
form, ir. which Old Kentucky is made.
Old Kentucky is made of the choic
est Burlcy leaf, in the world's greatest
plug tobacco factory, and under the
most cleanly, sanitary conditions.
The luscious flavor of Old Kentucky
is a delicious revelation to any man
who has been chewing ordinary tobac
cos. It is supremely satisfying.
Fresh, pure, mellow, a chew of Old
Kentucky is a real chew and you will
realize this as soon as you taste it.
Buy a 10c plug of Old Kentucky to
day and try it.

FOR WESTERN LANDS
Western Nebraska, Colorado, Wyoming, Montana and South Da
kota land are steadily increasing in value. Their 1915 heavy Yields
of grain and the profit from the livestock and dairy business are now
known and advertised in ihe Middle and Eastern States. Indications
all point towards another and early strong movement of land buyers
and homesteaders into t lie West. V
We shall be glad to send, entirely free, to established land agents
along the Burlington a large list of the names and addresses of in
quirers about Western lands. They live in the Middle West. Many
of these inquiries are for deeded lands, others for homestead lands,
others for irrigated lauds. This is then to remind commercial clubs,
county organizations and others to anticipate in some effective way
this coming movement of land seekers and settlers. I will do my part
in co-operating with any locality served by the Burlington.

Always Moving Ahead
Thousands of the brightest minds in this country are de
voted to the development and improvement of Bell Telephone
tervice.
Steadily and constantly some fault is eliminated, some
method improved, or some obstacle overcome.
To realize the steady progress that has been made one only
has to compare the quality and quantity of the service today
with what it was ten years ago.
Even in the last five years the number of telephones in u:e
has been practically doubled and the distance of telephone
transmission multiplied many times.
. Our rates are the lowest possible and yet afford sufficient
revenue to pay a reasonable return on the money invested, ufter
payinp fair wages and after providing sufficiently to rebuild or
restort parts of the plant when destroyed by fires or storms, or
when it is worn out or becomes obsolete.
It is our constant endeavor to give the best service at the
lowest rates at which it c?.n be furnished, so we shall be able to
connect everyone who will add to the service to others.
