One man savs the reason there .
are few weevils in old corn this ]
summer is that there is no corn.
Another says it's because the ]

Traveling salesmen carry a 1
good supply of jokes, and they
seldom fail to create a laugh j
when they try. One told Mon.

county who has been somewhat

Mr. Luke Graves, the man
who doctors horses and cows,
had had his Brother Henry's cow
down there for a few days, and

must have a dollar to buy more
medicine. Henrv forked over
the dollar, and. according to Mr.
Buck Brewer, Luke went right
straight and spent it for Browns
Mule tobacco. Buck says Luke
has chewed so much of this, his .
favorite brand, that he is so shv
of bridges that it is hard to induce
him to cross one.

It has been many years since ,
meat was so high. It is said that
one day last week a citizen of
Pageland sent his small son 1
to a store in Pageland for
fifty cents worth of meat. A few minutes
later the boy was seen 1
scratching manfully in the sand <
as he cried for help. When a j
kind passerby asked him what he
was crying about he replied '
that he dropped fifty cents worth
of meat and before he could pick
it up an ant grabbed it and ran
into a hole. How high is meat
at Monroe. John. *

Found It In the Tire
1
Somehow, when the talk reverts
to cylinders and carbura i
ters, we always bolt the crowd, j
nuiuuiuune raiK?maybe it is be .
cause of a fondness we once had j
for the horse -doesn't interest
us. Automobile humor is about {
the same way with us, but Prof. |
Cadieu, the man upstairs, un- j
derstands it all, and today he's
chuckling over a little mishap .
I Joel Griffin had Wednesda> on [
I his way to the mountains. He
had finished putting in a new .
inner tube, and was preparing to f
leave the barn when he discovered
that one of the tire tools was x
missing. He searched vainly; ?
but giving it up. started on his j
way. When he reached Bakers, j
or somewhere near that place, _
he had another puncture. After <
taking off the tire, he found his
missing tire tool in the casing.
NOW the Professor enllo ilm?
- viuu uiai
funny, but we think that Joel I
will agree with us that there isn't
any humor about it.?John 1
