Dockage System Protects Farmer
By use of the dockage system in
grading wheat, as advocated by the
United States Department of Agricul
ture the farmer is protected from the
possibility of low prices fixed by the
local buyer in order to insure a safe
purchase on a fiat rate basis, says
United States Department of Agri
culture bulletin 1118. "Dockage un
der the Federal Wheat Grades." Un
der this system the wheat is graded
dockage free or after such foreign
matter as weed seed, other kinds of
I
grain, etc., have been screened out.
The dockage is first removed from the
sample and the grade determined. If
one per cent of foreign matter is
j found in the wheat, dockage is as
sessed against it, but the dockage
does net affect the grade. i

THE VALUE OF EXPERIENCE
Napoleon once said: "It takes sev
en campaigns to make a soldier."
There is great wisdom in these few
words. To do anything well, we
must have experience. Therefore, it
takes vears to prepare a perfect rem
edy. Triner's American Elixir of,
Bitter Wine, which today enjoys thej
renown of being the best remedy
for constipation, poor appetite, head
aches, flatulence and other stomach'
disorders, represents thirty years of
experience. It has stood many tests,
it proved faithful and helped mil
lions of patients. All those who know
it praise it. "Triner's American
Elixir of Bitter Wine is an excellent
remedy," Mr. Tony Prsle writes from
Oak Grove, La., on June 2!. 19;H.
After one trial you will agree to
this statement. But don't accept any
other "bitter wine" from your drug
gist or dealer in medicines, fusist up
on the genuine and always reliable
remedy, "Triner's American Elixir of
Bitter Wine." Joseph Triner Com

THE WATER MUST BE PURE
Impurities, either chemical sub
stances or solid matter of any kind,
will interfere with the proper chemi
cal action between the plates and
the battery solution. It is for this
reason that you should never use
anything but pure distilled water,
which can be obtained at the Willard
Service Station. Id; lw.
THE OUNCE OF PREVENTION
The importance of regular atten
tion to a storage battery cannot be
too strongly emphasized. Frequent
calls to the Willard Service Station
to have them test, till your battery
with distilled water and see that
your electrical equipment is work
ing right, will keep repair bills away.
