Mayor Jamrog is suffering from a badly bruised knee that he injured ► Men may differ about preparedness for war, but all of us believe in preparedness for most things. It is preparedness that sends the runner over the tape ahead of his rivals. It is preparedness that enables the advocate to sway judge and jury with his logic. It is preparedness that enables the manufacturer to out-distance his competitors. It is preparedness that has made the General Roofing Manufacturing Company The Big Gun of the Roofing Business The General’s preparedness consists of the three largest and best equipped roofing and building paper mills in the world. Each is a complete producing unit, manufacturing the full line of the General’s products. Each is advantageously located in the territory it serves, has cheap fuel and favorable transportation facilities. 1 he General buys raw materials in enormous quantities anA far ahead. This means favorable buying and the pick of the market. * With manufacturing so perfected and cheapened, the highest quality is produced at the lowest cost. This preparedness enables the General to make one-third of all the ills of roofing used. All over the civilized world you will find Certain-teed Roofing The quality of roofing cannot be determined by looking at it, nor by twisting or tearing. Its durability can not be tested except in actual use over a period of years. Contrary to popular belief roofing does not wear out—it dries out. CERTAIN TEED Roofing is especially made to defeat this process of drying out$ as it is thoroughly saturated with our properly blended soft asphalts and coated with a blend of harder asphalts, which keeps the soft saturation—the life of the roofing—from dry ing out. This produces a roofing pliable, yet durable, and impervious to the elements. CERTAIN-TEED products are made under the supervision of our board of grad uate chemists, and are the result of long experience in mining, refining, and blending of these materials. CERTAIN-TEED Roofing is guaranteed to hold “its place in the sun**for 5,10,or 15 years according to whether it is 1, 2, or 3 ply, respectively. Behind this guarantee stands the responsibility of the world’s largest Roof »ng and Building Paper Mills. Past experience has proved that our guarantee is conservative, and that the roofing will outlast the period of the guarantee. There is a type of CERTAIN-TEED, and a pro per method of laying it, for every kind of building, with flat or pitched roofs, from the largest sky scraper to the smallest structure. CERTAIN-TEED Roofing is sold by responsible dealers all over the world at reasonable prices. GENERAL ROOFING MFG. CO.

Ed Haedler attended a Duroc Jersey sale in the southern part of the state last week and purchased some fancy hogs, which were bred to Big Illus trator, the best and biggest boar in the state.

Help was called in a few minutes after the discovery, but the wind was high and the fire gained such headway that it could not be put out. The stock and implements were saved, and the loss on the building was about half covered by insurance. Medicine or Food. You have always bought the bulky stock food and given to your stock as a medicine. Why not buy only the medicine and furnish your own food? The medicine will be much more cer tain. In fact, B. A.

Charged with obtaining money un der false pretenses, Orie M. Bowen, a young Sherman county farmer, was brought to Kearney today by Sheriff Funk, where he pleaded guilty to the charge and was sentenced to one year in the pentitentiary. The charge was made by .the Citi zen's State bank at Ravenna, which loaned him $375 on the representation that he had a number of head of cattle on his place for which he gave a mort gage to the bank. Bowen has been married but two years and has a wife and little child. When the officers told them the man must face the music the young wife clung to her husband until forced to give way by the officers. It was said that Bowen asserted he was obliged to borrow the money to take care of other obligations. He will be taken to Lincoln tomorrow. Of course your excessive modesty would prevent your answering the question, but we would really like to know the name of the smartest man in this community.

Their 1915 yield of from 25 to 4. bushls of wheat per acre will exceed the present price of similar and adjoining lands. Indication point to the greatest demand for these deeded Western lands that the West has yet seen. Tim incoming inquiries show already the movement to get hold of one of these farms before it is too late; if you can buy these land at from $15 to $35 an acre you can make up your mind that they will be 50 per cent higher in the near future. Dairymen are making money. The silo has revolutionized farming on these lands and insures a return value that has never been known. All farm improvements on adjacent lands bear testimony to their worth. Yuma County Colorado, last year produced $1,275,000 worth of wheat, $600,000 worth of corn and $1,280,000 worth of stock. This was about the production of other counties where these lands lie in Western Nebraska and Eastern Colorado. ■ Let me send you maps, folders, and place you in touch with land agents and otherwise help you.
