The education went to Jeff Anderson, a Kentucky boy of Pulaski county | selves. Jeff belonged to a boys’ club which had been organized by the county agent. He was encouraged to raise @ litter of fine pigs under the club sys tem by which the boys applied ap- proved methods and kept account of the results. The pigs sold for a fancy Jeff, who had made sure prog- ress, saved some money from his labor and in 1918 entered the Kentucky State College of Agriculture for its short course. He had been used to seeing his moth- er and other women carry water 150 yards up a hill for washing and cook- ing. At the agricultural college he realized the convenience and benefit | to be gained by running water conduct- ed to a tap in the kitchen. When he returned home he persuaded his father to let him put in a water system. A stand pipe 60 feet high was built with | a 500-gallon tank on top, which gave | sufficient pressure to force water to the dwelling 400 feet away. He rigged up a gasoline engine and pump at the spring under the hill, He had learned u little about plumbing, so he did all the pipe fitting in the house. One month's work at odd times, coupled with a little of the knowlege he had gained at the State College of Agricul ture put the water right kitchen.

One flock of sheep con- | tained 250 purebred ewes and 3,450 | crossbred ewes, the sires being all | purebred. A cattle raiser who enlist- ed in the campaign the same day nott- | fled the department: “I have disposed of two grade Hereford bulls recently, | having decided to run nothing but | purebred sires."

During these years we have carried other make of tires but none have given such all around, year in and year out, general satisfaction as the Lee lines. We believe that no business establishment, j sincerely interested in its patrons’ welfare and ever striving to obtain best possible results for them, can carry two or more lines of the same class of merchandise selling at the same price, without a knowledge of superiority of one over the other, Is one honest to his patrons who sells against his own best knowledge?
