the National Cash Register System we began giving
checks with each cash purchase.
, We thought it best not to boast until we had
something to boast about.    Now, however, we feel
, justified in speaking of the splendid success with
which our plan has met.
We are very much^gisatified at the unexpected'
returns from it and take this means of reminding
our friends that we give checks with every cash pur-
t chase and these are redeemable in the splendid new
^aluminum ware, absolutely the finest cooking utensils ever made, in preserving kettles, rice boilers, tea
-jketrles, and so forth.
/;""• We began this system merely as a means of showing to our customers that we value their patronage
and they in turn have shown their appreciation by
. increasing our sales.
Don't neglect tp ask for your checks if they are
overlooked.
Checks will not be given on implements.

Letter From California.
Longbeach, Cal., June 20,1910.
^Editor Observer:—Some of your
readers may wish to know how we like
California and I venture to give a
short letter through your paper to answer some of the questions asked us
by our home friends.
I have seen only a small part of the
state. Our first stop was at Redlands
where we met Charles Rowe, Isaac
Jones and other former Michigan people. That is a fine .city with many
fine orange groves near by.. It was a
beautiful sight to see large tree loaded
with nice yellow fruit among bright
green foliage. Here we saw the first
Jig trees.
Our next stop was at San Diego' with
R.' K._, Fellows and" wife. Here we
stayed two months and a half. This
city is mostly built on high and uneven land overlooking the bay and
harbor. The citj' has a.population of
about 45,000, many . of ■ *vj}om are
Chinese, Japs, Mexicans or a mixtuVe
of these peoples, but they are quite essential as laborers on public works.
The city is growing rapidly and they
are planning for a Panama and San
Diego world's fair in 1915, but San
Francisco is likely to supplant them.
From San Diego "we went td Los Angeles for a month. "We visited Pyron
Fellows and daughter Mabel. Both
are nicely located.
We came to Longbeach January 24,
my 75th birthday, and saw the great
Pacific Ocean in all its grandeur for
the first time, We saw the Atlantic
four years ago on our way to Cuba,
but as sea sickness kept me in iny
berth four days outof the five, it had
no pleasure for me. We never tire of
looking at the big waves five to eight
fegtchigh chase each other about 200
Ieet apart and beat upon the shore
"with a steady, constant roar. This
beach is clean sand made so by the
constant washing of the waves and
tide and people of all ages and sex lie
down in it, basking in the sunshine
to cure any* real or imaginary afflictions.
•There is a pier extending out in the
ocean half a mile, at the end of which
is a large assembly hall for public use
free to all conventions. On the floor
below this hall is a driveway and boat
landing. Boats run from this pier to
Catalina Island, San Pedro and other
places. Seven large torpedo boats and
destroyers have been in the harbor fpr
several days.
Thousands of people from every
state in the union come here during
some part of the year to spend some
time at this beach. The cold winters
send those from the north and east
here to keep them warm and those in
the hot valleys or inland cities come
in summer to keep cool as it is always
cool on the bleach as the wind'blows
from the ocean nearly every day.
The climate is the drawing card .for
California. It is true that many people have made monies'- in fruit raising
but fruits and all land products are
grown at great expense on high priced
land. If our Michigan farmers would
fertilize and put as■" much work on a
10-aere apple orchard as they do here
for oranges or lemons, I think they
would make as much money, but of
course the winters are more severe
there, yet there are cold, damp, chilly
days here during the winter months.
This is not a paradise for mortals here
below but it is a great improvement
over Michigan for one of my age.
If we were to make bur home in
California, it would be in this city as
we much prefer this to any other we
have seen or heard of. It has a population about 25,000, streets broad and
well kept and no saloons or "blind
pigs" to increase taxation... Land is
very fertile and where irrigated produces well. Good crop of oats, hay or
barley are grown without irrigation
when sown in October or November.
Churches of all denominations have
fine buildings and are well attended.
Children's day was celebrated in each
of them.
Letters from home often ask when
we are coming back. Our answer is
that we don't know. The cost of living here is about the same as there,
yet some tilings are higher. Butter is
35 cents, beefsteak 18 to 22 cents,
bread 5 cents, .potatoes 1_- cents per
pound. Our fuel last-winter- cost us
about $7, house rent or room rent
about the same as in Ypsilanti. I anr
in the real estate and insurance business the same as in Ypsilanti, as I am
too young a man to quit business. '
Both of us enjoy she best of health
and wishes everybody who reads the
Observer or ever heard of it health
and happiness.      C. M. Fellows

Twine is a small item, but good  twine saves a lot
of expense in b__rves_ time.    j_.v_ry time 3'our machine is
stopped   the delay costs }Tou money.    Time  in'
harvest  season  is. air,-ays  valuable,   and sometimes extremely precious on  account of  the
condition of weather or grain.    Be sure you
use   the   best   twine,—-PLYMOUTH
TWINE.    Then you will  be  safe  from
the   annoyances,   delays,   expenses,   which
ordinary twine causes.    Plymouth Twine
works perfectly in every machine.   More
of it is made and used every year than
any other kind, because it is known to
be the best and has been for years.
Binds more  sheaves  with  less expense, no knots, no breaks, ancl is
guaranteed full  length and  extra
strength.     Get Plymouth Twine
from the local dealer.    Look for
the wheat-sheaf tag.
