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. THE NUNAN-TAYLOR CO. CLOTHIERS and FURNISHERS THE-HARVARD 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.
