A slight turn with a screwdriver, perhaps once a year, does the work. The Primrose is a well-constructed, clpse-skimming, durable cream separator. It will make a saving of SIO.OO to $15.00 per cow in your herd each vear. It is made in four sizes to separate 350 to 850 pounds of milk per hour, or from about 40 to 98 gallons. Ask for a catalogue giving a complete description or come in and look over the Primrose yourself. T. W. BESS, Agent

ON DELCO LIGHT S. P. Sheets of Route Four is More Than Pleased With HIS DELCO PLANT Says the Cost of Running the Plant for Three Months Was $5.20. Decatur, Ind., April 30, 1919. Wilson-Kalver Co., Decatur, Ind Dear Sirs: —We have now used our Delco plant three months and find that it is perfect for light and power. For the three months it has cost $5.20 or an average of 40 cents per week. For lighting purposes there is nothing better, safer or more handy. Before we got the plant we were using seven lamps and three lanters which burned three and one-half gallons of coal oil a week, or a cost of 42 cents just for light alone. And then just think of the work of cleaning and filling all of these lamps and lanterns. For power it is surely great. We are at present washing, ironing, sweeping and running the cream separator. We have also run the fanning mill, grindstone and the ice cream freezer. I say buy a plant of your own and be independent and safe. There is no danger, the current is not strong enough to hardly feel a shock. With a plant of your own no one can raise the price, nor can they shut the current off. Make your electricity. You , can make it cheaper than you can buy it. Very truly, S. P. SHEETS, advt. ■*“ R. R. 4 Decatur, Indiana. —oCOMMISSIONERS' AI.LOW INCES FOR MAI. Citizehs Tel. Co.. Co. Rev $ 21.95 Win. B.

Another map contrasts in a striking way the great Germany of 1914 with its shrunken self of to-day, telling more plainly than words of the downfall of the arrogant Empire of the Hohenzollerns. A third map shows the disposition of the German colonies in Africa; a fourth map the distribution of the German Islands in the Pacific. The fifth map shows the Chinese city of Kiaochau which is awarded to Japan, and its geographical relations to Peking, Korea, and the Japanese archipelago. These five maps, which are included in THE LITERARY DIGEST for May 17, will make clear to the reader in five minutes what the war has accomplished in five years. Other striking features in this week’s “Digest” are: The Peace Terms That Take All the Fight Out of Germany I A Summary of the Greatest Treaty of Peace in History With Comment Upon It From the German, British, French, and American Press Japan’s Victory at Paris Taxing Our “Luxuries” g Hungary’s Third Stage of Decline Why Belgium Balked at the Treaty | German Bluster About Peace Terms The Machine That Foiled the German Minds I A Flivver on Rails Sensational Discoveries by Crookes, 1 The Doctor’s Troubles the Great Scientist I Paderewski —A Pianist Turned Statesman Finding Fault With Stage Soldiers * Can Acting Dolls Displace Actors?
