Extra Mileage, Extra Anti-Knock, Extra Power, Extra Dry, Extra Quick Starting—
WHAT DO THEY MEAN "EXTRA"
So many other gasolines are "Extra" this or "Extra"
something else that sometimes we wonder whether
we shouldn't use some fancy phrases ourselves.
And then we realize that all of tlie things that
they call "Extra" are the very things -which we consider essential to a really fine gasoline.   To describe.
Dixie in their term's we'd have to tell you that it is
"Extra" Gasoline.
We'd rather say It is good—and let you find the
extras.

[     "We need a constant study 01 tne
t kind of investment a farmer is going
to make," Mr.  Otis said.    "BaaKer&
' do that in other kinds of business,
why shouldn't they do it in farming?"
; "There is a wonuerful opportunity
for bankers and farmers to puu together and build up theii communities. There also are opportunities
for leadership in rural affairs, second to none.    The boy doesn't neeu
; to leave the farm for a career today."
i The speaker went on to show thf
advantages of the use of a bookkeeping system for the farmer ana
stated that although the books may
show no profit to the farmer, at
rfirst, he should not be discouraged
but'should be able to operate his af-
: fairs more economically through in-
for-mafion received and snow the benefits of that knowledge through iiis
returns in ensuing years.
Two local men, Carl A. (3urtiss
and Arthur J. Lutz, figured promi-
rnently in the meeting. Mr. Curtiss,
who presided over the session, stated that if the farmers are losing
money the bankers aTe losing money,
'too, rand urged a close cooperation
between the farmers and the banks.
Arthur Lutz, introduced as ".The
Corn King of Michigan," stated that
farm accounts are not a panacea or

for hard Work, good management

The high school library consists of
about 1,800 books, 1,400 of which are
reference books, with 400 Copies of
fiction. Because of the work done
with these books, it is impossible to
characterize this collection, as a circulating library, as books rarely are
allowed .from the building. The five
lower grades each have their own
books in their rooma about 2,000 in
jf.il. These were all reclassified and
reeatalogued this fall, at the beginning of the school year, and are conveniently placed in built-in bookcases in the study room. |
The Public Library is always glad
to receive books from you, as well as
lend them to you. A year's consecu-
tie numbers of any magazine, even
if old volumes, will be acceptable.
