One of my latest patent articles is
rated the most simple hay hook yet in
vented. It is a combination hook and
wire cutter. The market is open for
Hughes Hay Hook, a standard article
that every farmer or hay dealer can
use, ulso the U. S. army corps. Come
tomy feed yard and in one second you
can see the bale wire cut in two with
out dragging the hay any.

After haying tried all the other

burned. A new vein just opened, it
is better and cleaner than ever.

The liquor interests are planning
to continue their fight to bring back
the outlawed saloon by the two and
one-half per cent beer and light wine
route. They will try to get the matter
to a vote of the people again and 1t
will be defeated by a larger majority
than ever. The thing that hurried
prohibition was the saloon and the
people of this nation will have nothing
to do with it. The liquor people would
stand more show of winning if they
would forget this beer and light wine
business and advocate only liquor
carrying a large per cent of alcohol.
