Milburn, Torrington, Wyo , ' who brought two loads of cattle to the Omaha market, says, "There has ; never been a belter season for grass and cattle. Late rains have started the range to greening up again and I hardly think it will be sufficient to spoil the winter teed. "It has been a hard proposition to look after the stock this summer, as we have all been short of help. The boys are all in the army or go ing to go in and we have already had to buckle down and get along the best we could. I don't know what we would have done if it had not been for the women folks. My wife can ride and helps with the stock better than a good many men and with her help I got along fairly well. "There seems to be about the us ual number of cattle in the country and so much feed that we are figur ing on putting in a few more steers if we can get them. The help prob lem is the big drawback, but I sup pose we are not worse off in this respect than they are in other parts of the country."

It's simply ordinary gas heated three times before it is shot into the cylinders and thus made far more volatile, far more lively. The instant a spark is projected into the cylinder-head, there is an immediate response with a clean, sharp explosion that leaves no residue to form power-stealing carbon on the piston-rings and side-walls. The first heating is at the carburetor. The gas is then conducted through a cylinder block channel between the hot fir ing cylinders to the opposite side of the motor where the larger particles not yet vaporized are thrown against the hot walls of the Exhaust-Contact Manifold and cracked like water on a hot griddle. That's "triple-heated" gas. That's what gives FULTON trucks aver age mileage records of 12 to 14 miles a gallon. VAN BRUNT AUTOMOBILE CO. 1 Distributors. Omaha, Neb... Council Bluffs, la. 0 But, fuel-saving is not the only FULTON claim to economy. The internal-gear drive is lighter, gives more power and saves on tires. The FULTON factory is the largest in the country devoted to the exclusive manu facture of a ton-and-a-half truck. All the efforts of the entire organization are con- centrated on tnis one model.

You are invited to make use of these conveniences; Early Christmas Shopping Is Demanded By The Council of National Defense The Council of National De fense insists that stores throughout the country shall not employ extra force of sales people at Christmas time. They also state that business hours shall not be lengthened temporarily and that the public should be urged to begin their buying of Christmas gifts early. Another advice by the Coun cil is that gifts be confined to useful articles (except for chil dren) in order that the nation's man-power may be employed in the largest possible degree in "WAR WINNING INDUS TRIES," repognizing, of course, that merchants must dispose of stocks already on hand, manu factured, perhaps, many months ago.
