EVERYDAY UTILITY
The average man buying a suit
of clothes is all at sea. Perhaps
he knows a little about the goods.
He must depend upon the man
that sells him the article. Here
is the moral: BUY WHERE YOU
CAN PLACE YOUR CONFID-
ENCE. We want you to come
here with the confidence that you
can depend upon the quality of
our goods and what we say
about it.

Mrs Merley they have undertaken to put
their church building in good repair and
attractive condition. In the near future
it is planned to have the building re­
painted and the room repapered and new
seats will Ire put in. Central Point this
[>ast year has made a good growth and
the town's prosperity is now being shown
in the betterment of the various public
buildings.
A misstatement was made in the Sen­
tinel of last week in regard to the class
of stock from which the trees in N. S.
Bennett’s nursery, near Talent,
were
grafted. Instead of his nursery being
to spring planted grafts which would
mean that piece roots were used and
the grafting done during the winter
in the house. The facts are Mr. Ben­
nett’s trees are field grafted on whole
roots, his method being to plant the
previous spring and the following spring
to cut off these seedling trees at the
crown and graft on standard stock with­
out digging up or disturbing the root.
This gives a far more vigorous, healthy
tree than where the seedlings are dug
up and then grafted during the winter,
with the roots exposed to the air and
cut into several pieces and each made
into a graft.
W. M. Scheble, one of the leading far­
mers of Griffin Creek was in Jacksonville
Tuesday. Mr. Scheble was an active
worker for the success of the proposed
hog law and he states that the supporters
of this measure try it again at the next
election for they are determined to have
the hogs shut up. Mr. Scheble declares
that the cost of extra fencing and the de­
struction of crops will each year amount
to more than the profit on the range
hogs.
Another argument
that Mr.
Scheble, anti others favoring a hog law,
use is that there is little profit in the
range hogs as they can not be kept bred
up, the scrut>s overrunning the ranges
and that kind of a hog brings little
money in the market, and furthermore
there is a heavy loss each winter of range
hogs that are neglected by their owners
and which die of starvation and exposure.
