It was a success and the same county bought another and another, and the first machine is still running, and it is six years old and digs sev eral thousand rods every fall, winter aiid spring; the price making this machine prohibitive for an individual, but cheap for.a whole people. Some day not long hence, Fayette county will build a new court house. Let us have a say in the building— it is ours, it will belong to us, we have it to pay for. Who should say how much a pig, an automobile or a mule should be given in for taxation? Is there any standard? Are we all serv ed alike? How do we know we are or are not? Who would run a busi ness nowadays and know as about it as we people in Fayette county? As a county, let us recom mend to our officials more help or better methods and refine our coun ty business.

This county needs to know collect ively what is known individually about stock raising, cultivation, drain age, fruit growing, breeding of stock, poultry, etc. We haven’t any clear ing house through which these facts can be distributed. We have in thq county orchards that have paid 50% dividends averag ing that pay 35% dividends; cotton experts that have taken poor soils, washed Hills and made a bale of cot ton the acre. Stockmen who' know the kind ot stock that pay. We need to discuss collectively tax ation. school development, road build ing, drainage, bridges, public improve We would like to see water marks and electric lights at every home. They not only save labor, but add to the comfort of the home. The war drive organizations dem onstrated what organization will do and accomplish. Our county is a ru ral county. Jhe purpose of the farm bureau is to build up every part of rural that is worth while. Give your influence and support. It was organized to help you. The more the people put in it the more they will receive. Let’s have a good live or ganization in Fayette county and every member a worker. ^ GOOD CITIZENSHIP »»»»»»€<««««« A Bank account makes a good citizen. That’s a broad assertion, but it is universally true. A good citizen is one who is independ ent, self-supporting, and who does things con ducive to the best interest of the commun ity. The man who has a bank account is independent, he is thrifty, he is able to pay his way, and he contributes to the general wealth of his community. His funds are in circulation. He pays taxes and helps to make things go. Likewise a man who has money and property in a community is anxious to see that the community prosper. We pull for the man with the bank account. Canning powders are disinfectants to kill life in'the can. They can also kill some parts in the human body. They are dangerous and are used to cover up dirt. Children cannot stand them. BANK OF FAYETTEVILLE. There should be a secretary who Mr. Ralph Burks and children are the guests of Mr. and Mrs. S, A. Lurks.

Re-investment of First Liberty Loan Bond interest in Thrift and War Say ings Stamps, is urged upon the citi zens of Fayetteville and Fayette county by Mayor W. W. Redwine. The government will make a 3emi-anual interest payment on the first Liberty Loan on June 15th, at which time the sum of $809,955.12 will be turned over to investors in the Sixth Federal Reserve District. “Many of our citizens pwn First Liberty Loan Bonds,” the Mayor said. ‘The Treasury Department has urged ill who ca nto. take this interest mon- jy and re-invest it in Thrift and in War Saving^ Stamps. By that ipeans :hey can turn their interest into more nterest. This is profitable patriot- sm, and I trust that those who own Tirst Liberty Bonds will comply with ;he Treasury Department’s request. “Arrangements have been made so ;hat you can exchange your Liberty joan interest coupons for Thrift and War Savings Stamps at the postoffice, rhe postmaster has a sufficient supply >f these government securities on rand and will be pleased to accom- nodate you. War Savings Stamps ire always cashable at the po^toffice >n ten days’ notice. We have too nuoh civic pride to do less than our leighboring cities. They are plan ting to work up a big increase in War Savings Sales on June 15th, and o do it largely on their interest cou- x»ns / The whole secret o^canning is clean liness. All club girls who planted pimen tos should now plant a few small yel low fig tomatoes. \ Provide a box partly filled with road dust or wood ashes so as to give the hens an opportunity to take a dust bath. It gives them needed ex ercise and keeps them free from lice and mites. If every farm home would keep a supply of popcorn and a popper con venient, fewer nickels could be spent for less wholesome knickknacks and more enjoyable evenings would be spent around the family hearth. “GET-UP AND GIT Tl Have you built that fireless cooker yet?

So let us have a get-together meeting.

Lpt John Davis and Sheriff Ker- lin and Clerk Stell say a few words about county government; Drs. Les ter and Wallace tell about the neces sity for health condition and drain age and sanitation.

Use new jar rubbers in canning and preserving. The fraction of a cent saved by using old rubbers is not worth the risk of spoiling canned and preserved foods. You take* precautions against fires. Are you as careful of your health ? Disease prevention is more important than fire prevention. All who wish to purchase canning outfits this summer should order early our government about what we need; how to get it, what it means to ad vance, how to really live.
