The First Page Section Contains one of the best and most up-to-date maps of Indiana it is possible for us to obtain. In striking colors it shows pjaiuly— The counties, county seats, and all the towns in the state. The congressional districts, plainly outlined and numbered. The railroads, interurbans, rivers and canals. The distances between all railroad stations. Around the margin of this map are good photographs of all the governors of Indiana, from Governor Arthur St. Clair of the Northwest Territory down to and including Gov. J. Frank Hanly On the reverse side of the map is a complete list of all towns and postoffices in the state, arranged in alphabetical order, with the population of each. The map is indexed with marginal figures and letters, so that a town, however large or small, may be instantly pointed out. With the establishment of rural routes the postoffices of many small towns have been closed and the people are served by rural route out of a neighboring town. This map shows how to address mail for such places.

The Home Library Wall Chart would easily sell for $2.00 at any book store or map supply house. It will prove a valuable feature in any home or office or school.

A Word to Our Farmer Friends.

A manure spreader is a sure remedy for hard times. Every wide-awake farmer will plan to make up some of the losses sustained by reason of the ruinous slump in prices of farm produce last fall. One of the easiest and surest ways to do this is to encrease the quality and quantity of bis crops. Tbe farmer who had a spreader last year, and used it, got as muoh again money oat of the use of the same amount of manure as tbe man did who had no machine and spread the old way, and as a matter of oourse he had much more good corn. In short, the men who had spreaders and nsed them are about the only men who have good oorn this year. Investigate this assertion and it will be found to be true. That barnyard manure is the best crop-producer, when properly applied, none will dispute. That machine spreading produces best results none but the uninformed will deny. Buy a manure spreader, it will increase your corn crop 50 per cent in quality and 33 per cent quantity. There are very few unachinee made with which you can know what you are spreading to the acre. This feature is of the utmost iMPORTAncE With my machine yon know exactly what amount you are spreading. If

you want six loads, set the lever, and you get six, not eight. Any of the machines will spread much, very few will spread too little After spreading by hand almost every new beginner, being used to seeing the manure aothiok. on the ground, pats on too much, by machine. This is a fatal mistake! You buy tbe machine so that you can turn all the manure into corn, hay or grain the year you spread it. That is where itmakes YOU money. To dothis the manure must be spread thin and thoroughly torn to pieces. One hundred loads—and moat farmers have more than that—of manure spread with my machine will put enough on 16f aores of of ground to double a grass crop, or to add from 10 to 20 bushels of corn to the acre, and all of good quality. This same 100 loads if spread by hand would not cover more than four or five acres. A big inorease from 12 aores is therefore obtained by using a machine over hand spreading and with tbe same amount of manure and half the labor and time. Boy a manure spreader for cash if you can, on time if you most, while they are sold at the old prioe. I sell the best spreader in Rensselaer. Come in and let me prove it to you. C. A. ROBERTS.
