THURSDAY, MAY 7T?T 1936. Greatly Exaggerated. “Traffic on Main Streeit Saturday afternoon as heavy as ever with the intersection of Main and Taylor a bee hive of activity with pedestrians am automobiles parsing by the hundreds every minute.”—From The State's “Seen Here and 1 There.” With “pedes trians and automobiles passing by the hundreds every minute,”we are curious to know just what is the speed limit in Columbia. Like the news of Mark Twain’s death, we fear the above statement is “greatly exaggerated.” Dunbarton Faculty Re-elected.

Bennett, superin tendent, Miss Mary Workman and Frank Shuler, high school; Misses Myra Bishop, Oda Baker, Molly Mat thews and Emmie Lee Hair, grammar school. Williston-Elko Planning Finals.

F. Campbell, the pastor, officiating. A small reception for a group of relatives and close friends followed at the home of the bride’s parents. Mrs. W. B. Owens. A statement from the Farm Credit Administration recently says that in March prospective farm owners, some of them spurred on by the prospects of bonus payments, applied for more than $3,400,000 tb purchase farms. This was $1,000,000 more than the amount of applications applied for in February. Nearly a thousand farmers, with the down payment in hand or the pros pect of getting it, made applications during trl%» month for Federal land bank and Land Bank Commissioner loans for farm purchases. Particular ly numerous were applications from State s where farm income gains last year showed that farming is again be coming a profitable occupation. Intelest in farm purchasing has also been stimulated since the Federal land banks dropped the rate on new loans to 4 per cent, a year, giving farm buyers a chance to pay out over a long period at an interest charge a full one-third lower than the custom ary rate. Among the recent applications are young farmers and tenants to whom Congress gave a better chance of farm ownership last, year by making Land Bank Commissioner loans available for farm purchasing in amounts up to 75 per cent, of the appraised value. The previous limit for such loans through Farm Credit Administration facilities was limited by law to 50 per cent, of the value. With more favorable terms, farm purchase loan applications reached a peak of over $8,000,000 last October and now, after a decline during the winter months, have again headled up ward thi s spring. 4-H Achievement Day.

CHAMPIONS '9 who have < NEVER KNOWN DEFEAT Rock anJ Tom, owned by the Statler Farm* Co., Piqua, Ohio. Driver, Russell Sando. Their present record—3900 lbs. tractive pull, which is equivalent to pulling 9 plow* cutting furrows 14 inches wide and 6 inches deep. XX THAT A RECORD! Never have these mighty champions been VV beaten. They’ve out-pulled every team they’ve ever met. A These magnificent Belgians are Nature at her best. They arc animals to which Nature has given the vital spark—that necessary, natural balance of all the elements of which champions are made. Natural balance is everything! It's the difference between this team of powerful champions and Common, ordinary plugs. It’s the difference between the best and the rest in almost everything. And here’s another example of Nature at her best—Natural Chilean Nitrate. This nitrogen fertilirer is favored by Nature with the champion’s vital spark—the natural balance of the elements that make a champion. Into Chilean Nitrate Nature blended the vital impurities—the combination of many major and minor ele ments over and beyond nitrogen. Through countless centuries. Nature has aged and matured this nitrogen fertilizer in the ground, that you may return it to your ground as the safe, sure, balanced food for your crops. Natural Chilean contains almost two score of major and minor elements such as boron, magnesium, man ganese, iodine, calcium, frotassium, etc—each a vital element in grotvth'and healthy development of plants. criuia/ EAN NITRATE ► > or SODA WRH VITAL IMPURITIES IN NATURE'S OWN BALANCE AND BLEND VKEK THE FAST EXPRESS MASS 8 M.P.H.
