MAKING GOOD
SHIPS FIRST CAR OF ONIONS
FROM MISSION OF PRESENT
CROP.
Is Said Never to Fail In Way of
Farming-Makes Good Every
Season.
The following clipping from a Mis
sion, Texas, paper will be read with
much interest by the many friends of
J. F. Tanner who moved to that South
a eat Texas town about eight years
ago. The paper says
Mr. Tanner of this city has the
honor of shipping the first cars
of onions of the present crop, the
two cars having left here last week
consigned to northern markets
through the Roy Cambell agency rep
resented in Mission by Fred Volz.
The onions were sold cash on track
for $1.25 per crate and today Mr.
Tanner Is reveling in plenty of cash,
the world looks bright and he is
among the happiest farmers of -the
Mission proposition. Mr. Tanner
usually makes good with his onions
and the writer has yet to hear him
say he failed at anything in the way
of farming. We have known him
ever since he has lived here and have
seen him make good every season.
To Mission belongs the honor of
shipping the first car of onions this
season, the first time in three years
that we have been first, Laredo hav
ing beaten our time for the past
three shipping seasons."

self from an embarassing situation,
Geraldine confesses to the woman.
The aunt, after a lecture, gives Ger
aldine the money and orders her to
return it to Reggie. This Geraldine
attempts to do when Reggie appears
at the house that evening as one of
her husband's guests. To her indig
nation, the contemptible wretch tries
to make love to her. Ripping off the
dress that has caused the trouble,
Geraldine throws it into Reggie's
face. The guests learn the story.
What they do to Reggie will bring a
hearty laugh from every photoplay
patron.
