Vf hat an Experienced Farmer
Knows
Any farmer of experience can tell about how long his farm ma
chinery will run before the parts that need replacement will wear
out. These include, with many others, shares, shovels, guards,
knives, sections, blades, teeth, etc.
Order Repairs Early
All these items should be listed and ordered early far In advance
of the time when they will be needed. You will save time and
money by ordering all the repairs at one time. This will save
you money later in the season, when you may be obliged ta pay
for long distance telephone calls, and express or parcel post charg
es on numerous small orders.
When Delays are Expensive
And, what may later prove much more costly than these charg
es, is the time lost waiting for repairs just when the implement
should be working to capacity in the field.

JEWELER & WATCHMAKER TO THE WEST END
That our friends and patrons would ap
our endeavor to give tnem better and
pensive service.
One week’s advertising has proven this
a doubt.
Cow Returns Value Received Plus
What the cow-testing work has
meant to one Wisconsin farmer was
stated so simply and consisely in a
report to an agent of the Dairy Divi
sion. U. S. Department of Agriculture
that it is worth passing along. This
farmer says:
"The cow testing in the west sec
tion of Outagamie county has been
carried on with marked success.
“We have become belter acquaint
ed. The man who has been taking
good care of his cow has also become
better known.
"We have learned to' know our
cows not by what they seemed but by
what They actually are, to under
stand the necessity of selecting heif-
er calves from our best cows to be
raised for our future herd.
“We have learned to look on the
dairy cow not as a necessary
cur personal property but a real live
machine, capable of returning values
received plus, and that plus depend
ing largely upon the care, feed, and
breeding of the dairy cow."
