THE GREATEST FARMER
IN THE WORLD
One-fourth of the wheat we grow is the result I
of the researches of the Government. After
years of untiring experiment and investigation,
the Government, through the Department of Agricul
ture, was enabled to introduce into this country the
remarkable Durum wheat through which our produc
tion has been increased fully twenty-five per cent.
This has been only one of many surprising but little
known accomplishments of the Government, which
are covered in the interesting series of stories for
which we have the exclusive right of distribution in
this community.
We’ll send this literature to you each month without
obligation on your part if you will ask for it.

Without a Telephone!
Can you picture all the trouble, inoonvenience, j
t danger and loss of time that would result if all the
telephone lines were silent for a single day ?
The telephone is so reliable that we fume and fret If
it falters or is silent for even a few hours. i
Of all inventions, there is none that gives a person 5
as much pleasure, profit and protection for the money he ;
spends, as the telephone {
