front an adjoining field, and took sev
eral along, Mr. Shettler being from Ne

thing about the melons. But the ad

nine acres in extent, from which 5 car
loads had been shipped north, and
those still on the ground, were of a
quality that would not be good to ship.
The ground was literally covered, and
many would weigh well near twenty
pounds. But we noticed hog3 in the
field, which had been turned in to
eat those not of a shipping quality.
We apologize to Messrs Stebbins for
purloining their hog feed.—Zepherys

Buy A New Binder Now
■-- ■- - -- —... . ■ =
I would advise party wanting binders this year or in
the next three years, to buy them this year. A seven ft.
Deering binder complete will cost you $175. This same
j binder in 1918 will cost you $225 or more which would
be 8 per cent interest on $175 to August 1, 1921. If you
I buy a binder now and give your note at 8 per cent inter
est until August 1. 1921, it would be cheaper than buy
ing at that time, while you have the use of the binder
for three years in case of a large wheat crop in 1918 it
will be impossible to furnish half the demand for binders.
Buy your binder this year and save from $50 to $li() and
lie sure to have one for the 1918 crop.
