If not, come in and let us make a few suggestions.
If we cannot do you some good I can assure you
we will do you no hgrm.
Our high quality feeds are built to increase your

It doesn't take many extra eggs to pay the small
difference in the price of feed.
LARRO is the standard of quality, be it Poultry
Feed, Dairy Feed, Pig Feed, Calf Meal, or Flour.
We are getting it fresh by truck every week.
re profit over feed cost!
For a very interesting evening the
Reporter is grateful to Mrs. A. J.
Warren. While the intricacies and
details of china painting are not
fully understood by us, yet the finished product is duly appreciated.
Mrs. Warren has many choice pieces
ranging from, dainty vases to tall
ones, from chocolate cups to platters.
Her ability to sketch woodland scenes
and transplant them to realism on
her china is beautifully exemplified
in a large cake plate decorated with
a winter scene. Faces are also carefully and accurately displayed on
some of her pieces. The paintings
of still life are exceptionally beautiful and include flowers, birds and
plants. We never saw more natural
and real looking corn than that which
smiles from some of her paintings.
A nut bowl gaily decorated with squir-
rels is some of her handiwork of
which she may justly be proud in the
opinion of tlie Reporter. We realize
that her collection meant many, many
hours of careful and painstaking
work, but we are sure she loved doing it for the beauty which she
caught and expressed could not have
been planted there without love accompanying the effort.
IMPORTANT PLACE IN BRIDGEWATER
Mr. and Mrs. C. F. Ernst of
Bridgewater operate a lunch room
and also carry a small stock of
groceries. In addition they have a
gas station and auto repair shop.

fine pieces about the house. A pedestal has an unusually beautiful top.
His collection also includes a card

Some of his wood, although bought
in the East, is shipped from Africa

many fine specimens of their work

The Observer makes a good week- I at   Ypsflanti,   Monday   noon.     The
gathering was m the nature of a
"birthday" celebration nf all of the
clubs except Ann Arbor. A rbig Tbirth-
day cake, donated by the management of the Huron hotel,. was the
piece de resistance of the luncheon.
The guest speaker was Hernia H.
Reinecke of Detroit, special agent in
charge of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, U. S. Department of Justice. He is a rapid-fire orator of the
first rank, and for nearly an hour held
listeners spellbound as he related several phases of the department's -efforts the past few years in- cleaning
out kidnaping and banli robbery
rings. He stated that the new approach to the breaking up of the
gangs, that of rounding up all of
those in any way connected with
them—dishonest lawyers, doctors,
hotel keepers, rooming house proprietors, etc., and sending them to penitentiaries along with the principals,
has had the effect of reducing major
crimes in this country from 25 to 75
per cent, a record the department
may well    be mighty proud  of.
Another thing worthy of note that
was gleaned from his address is the
fact that in his department the personnel is made up largely of college
