COMMUNITY' SANITATION
Whon you see the wind blow tug a
dirty piece of paper along tho street,
do littlo thluklng. Bhiuy people
aro caroless ovory day, or tho rubblBh
of various kinds would uot be lit
"I'UIII.IO OPINION UK DAMNUM"
You, reador, huo probably heard
some follow blow up and nxolulm,
"Public opinion bo damned I don't
ouro a rap for It." Hut ho does wo
all do.
It Is human nature fur us to want
our uulghbois to think well of us.
liven' If It Is not especially so as it
matter of porsouul prldo, It Is so as
ono of good judgment and sound bus
iness policy. The man who Is well
thought uf has many friends, and
those friends nro a valuable asset to
him lu business they bring him
trade ami Invrauso his financial rev
on lies,
There are many things u man may
do that would lower him lu the es
timation of the public, yet would not
bring htm into conflict with the law.
And havo you noticed that moil In
variably conceal these littlo ucts us
much as possible? And whyT Ho
oaiiHo they do uot wish to Incur the
displeasure of their fellow men and
women. Wore it not for the moral
of feet of public opinion this world
would soon become u maelstrom of
Iniquity ami debauchery. It would
ho lmpolhlo us a plaee of residence
for respectable men and women, ami
to bring children Into exlstuucu under
such conditions would ho a crlmo
against humanity.
Public opinion mnkos or unmakes
us, as we court Its verdict We vnluo
It, and wo cherish Its good reports.
l'o r when all othor courts fall, pub
lic opinion becomes tho court of last
resort.
wi!. Ni:vi:itii:u,
ThoNO days the country Is Indulg

most hiimblo of tlioiu nil. Today wu
soo groat virtues In this man, and
that ono, ami tho othor, and we ex
pect great things from them. Hut we
never can toll. SomotlmoH they
measure up to expectations, and then
again they do uot iiioamiro at all.
Hut making them Is great sport, oven

JOHN DEERE GRAIN
BINDER
Why It Is the Better Binder
Bigger Main Wheel. Bigger in diame
ter, wider tire and wide, deep lugs.
Tt furnishes plenty of traction even in
severe field conditions.
Rigid Main Frame. Made of wide steel
bars widely overlapped and hot-riveted
together bearing supports forg
ed in frame. It will not weave or
twist even in the roughest fields
Driving parts are kept in true align
ment. Stronger Bindor Platform. Made of an
gle steel sills reinforced by strong
wood sills. Four angle steel cross
sills on 7 and 8 ft. six.es tic the plat
form together rigidly. Knife works
freely and canvass runs true.
Throe Packers Instead of Two. The
John Deere Binder makes better bun
dles. Tts three packers enables it to
handle long or short, tangled or ir
regular grain without clogging.
Better-Made Knotter. The wearing
parts consisting of steel-eut gears and
drop-forged parts are case-hardened,
insuring longer life and better tying
qualities
Quick-Turn Tongue Truck. Makes
square turns possible. Makes the
binder easier for the horses to pull,
and easier for the operator to handle.
Because its axle is flexibly mounted,
the truck overcomes side 'draft all of
the time.
Built in a Modem Factory. The .John
Deere drain Binder is built under
the must modern manufacturing fac
ilities. Every part is carefully in
spected, and the imnortnut operating
parts are tested thoroughly before
the binder leaves the factory. Pro
per setting up and careful oiling are
the only essentials to insure a pir-fect-working,
dependable binder.
We also Carry a.Comploto Lino of Binder's Twino, Its tho "Plymouth" Twine.
The Best is Tho Cheapest.
