A good idea. W. E. Bryant, one of our well known farmers and breeders of the Spotted Poland China hogs, this week received a fine brood sow from Bainbridge, Indiana. This sow while young is a well developed specimen, and will no doubt be a valuable addition to his breeding pens.

Where a fireplace ts avallubl wood ord but ce man agement. It is not general'y known that a wood fire can be kept burning day and night in a fireplace with very little attention and with stuall con sumption of wood, The sccret in keeping wood from burning teo mip idly is a plentiful supply of ashes, say foresters of the United States depart ment of agriculture. ing both heat and ventilation, One user who | adopted this plan reports continuous nse of a fireplace for over a month with dry chestnut wood, where the amount of ashes formed by a tmonuth’s | use was Bot enough to require re | moval. Ashes should be kept level with the andiron, the foresters say As the hlocks burn, an accumulation of glow ing charcoal forms in the ashes. This keeps on burning slowly aud assists in igniting the fresh blocks on the andirons. <A pocket may be formed in the ashes iuto which the hot chur- coal may fall, forming a heat storage Iwo or three blocks on the undirons with the hot charcoal In the ashes will form an excellent fire. Yo check the fire, ashes sare shov eled over one or more of the blocks sovering lightly all the burning wood This will not put out the fire; It will vnly check the rate of burning, so thet red charcoal will be found when the ashes are removed for addition of fresh fuel. Fireplace wood is usually cut in longer lengths than stove wood, but the ordinary 16-inch stove length Is vorvenient. Any kind of wood can be used, provided it is dry and sea | coned. A bauked fire will keep 10 or 12 | tours, and will send some heat from | the het bricks all the time. A well- managed fireplace will be found a great addition to the heating system in any residence. Its value ts to sup- plement a furnace, although It muy replace the furnace in fall and spring with decided economy. HUMOR IN EXAM ANSWERS. In looking over the eighth grade examination papers at the county school superintendent’s office this week at Sandpoint, says the Sandpoint Review, gen- uine humor in some of the an- swers, especially in physiology, keep things from getting hum- drum. Here are afew ques- tions and answers that are among the really funny ones: “Name three benefits derived from sleep.” Answer: “Sleep rests the brain, ears and eyes.” “Mention point of interest in relation to, Abraham Lincoln.” “Tadmire Abraham Lincoln because he was kind to dumb animals and_ especially good to his father and mother.” “What are the five races of mankind?” “Indians, Negroes, white, English and Scotch.” “Give four rules that will aid in preventing weak eyes.”” “Go to bed early and get up at the same time.” “What is the league of na- tions?” The league of nations is the thing that is going to set- tle the peace treaty.” “How does tobacco affect the mental powers " “Tobacco weak- ens, runtens and dullens the brain.” In naming “four contagious diseases,” an eighth grader names “pendlecidous” as one of them. In “naming religious sects that came to America for free- dom,” one lad said these “sects” were “the French and the Swedes,” while another said | they were “the Baptisms and Normans.” | Common Sense and SOLID FACTS About Automobile Tires Before long you will need a new tire or so for that car, and we wish to submit to you the following reasons why you should buy an EVERGREEN. Built for Western Roads The Evergreen casings and tubes are built in the West and are built to sell in the West to use over the Western Roads. The fabries are SIX PLY and of a heavy ply, the SIDE WALLS have more rubber, the better to stand the ruts, bumps and rocks that you drive over. They Weigh More Showing that there is more material used in their con- struction and with a casing like the EVERGREEN you need not buy a CORD to get MILEAGE.

We receive shipments direct from the factory, and when you buy an EVERGREEN you are buying a casing or tube with good new live rubber and fabrics.

Built in the West The factory is located in Spokane and as most all of the rubber is landed on the PACIFIC COAST, you are saved the freight across the stztes and back. They are sold in territory near Spokane so the men who build the tire know the conditions it will meet in use. GUARANTEED They are guaranteed under satisfactory terms, and al- : though during the time we have handled these goods we have never had to use the guarantee, you will be interest- ed in knowing they are behind their goods. Call and let us show you their casings and tubes. You will be pleased to see such a good casing or tube for the money. Yours to ditch that tire trouble, Cottonwood Hardware & Imp. Co. © 1920 A. B.
