Your House Is Larger
at certain times than at Others. You
don't notice it, but it is. The surface
of your house contracts with the cold
and expands with the heat. If the
paint on your Incase dots not con
tract and expand with the surface it
will crack. One should therefore be
careful about the paint used.
Atlanta White Lead
(Dutch Hoy Painter Trade Mark)
And Pure Linseed Oil
make ideal paint. White lead is made from
metallic h ad, one of the most pliable of metals.
It will contract and expand with the surface
painted. Be sure the white lead is pure.
We sell these Dutch Boy paintythatcrials.
The Dutch Boy trade-mark is a guaranty of
absolute purity and highest/quality. We also
sell varnishes and other paint supplies. Ask
us for our white lead book.

Mrs. Jane Callehan suffered from womanly trouble for
nearly ten years. In a letter from Whiteville, N. C, she
says: " I was not able to do my own housework. My
stomach was weak, and my blood was wrong. I had back
ache, and was very weak. I tried severaj doctors, but they
did me no good. I used Cardui for 3 or >4 months, and now
I am in the best health I have ever beetL I can never praise
Cardui enough." It is the best tonic, for women.
Whether seriously sick, or simply weak, try Cardui.

Now York, August 29. -Reports
from 1931) special correspondents of
the Journal of Commerce, bearing an
average date of August 22, show u con;
dltlon of cotton of Tl.'I per cent, as
compared with SI.I per rent a month
ago, or a loss of !'.T points.
Only once in the past ten years has
this decline in August been exceeded,
namely, the year 1011, when It was 1I.?
points; and the ten-year average lost)
is about 5.0 points.
Condition a year ago was T?.l per
cent, while In 1011, the banner year,
it was 72.0 per cent, and 70.7 per
cent in 1910.
The ten-year average is 7:'..'> per
cent. It remains to be seen how far
a loss of '.'.7 points In conditions will
be offset by an Increase of 856,000

Condense Your Hay
OOS12 hay is one of the hardest things
in the world to manage. There's
no getting around that. The wind
plays havoc with it. It slips and
slides oft poorly loaded wagons. In
barn and yard much of it is wasted. It is much
too bulky to haul or ship far.
Handling hay is :v problem, and right here
is the answer?-in the baling. An I 11 C hay
press puts your hay in convenient shape for
handling and economical feeding; no need to
build outdoor stacks exposed to all weather,
for lack of barn space. Von can ship the bales
to cities and distant places where the hay
market and prices are good. Largo cities,
where storage space is costly, require hay to bo
baled, and top prices are paid. Shredded corn
fodder makes a good feeding substitute for all
the hay you may ship to the city.
I H C Hay Presses
are the only kind you will consider in buying,
when you have made :i comparison, studied
the construction, the durability, the features,
and the possibilities of the 1 11 C hay presses.
You will find both styles mado in three si/es,
14 x 18, K? x 1H, and 17 X 22-inch bale chamber,
baling from six to sixteen tons per day.
The efficiency of the I 11 C features, the
self feeder, toggle joint plunger, bale tension,
and spring roller tucker, prove their worth on
demonstration. If your choice is a motor
power press, you will have a year-round ma
chine, for the engine is always ready todo faun
jobs for you, pumping, sawing, grinding, run
ning the repair shop, electric light plant, etc.
In the horse power press, study the pull power
principle, compound levenige, and the low
Btep-ovcr. It is the most efficient press sold.
Drop in on your local dealer and look over
the I 11 Chny press line. Get catalogues from
him, or, wiilo the
