Miller, owner of the Rosedale summer resort on Fox river near this village, at once offered the use of his hotel and grounds for the purpose. He took the matter up with our congressman, Col. Ira C. Copley of Aurora, and in response he received the following letter: Washington, D. C., May 1, 1918. Mr. J. F. Miller, McHenry, 111. Dear Sir--The surgeon general di­ rects me to acknowledge receipt of your generous and patriotic offer, thru Congressman Copley, of the use of the Rosedale summer resort for an army hospital. Unfortunately the building would be far too small to be administered advantageously. The department is obliged to think, at the present moment, of the care of re in i V find that the people that have the most to do with banks have the greatest confident in them. The more people learn about banks the more firmly they become convinced that our banking system is safe. The strict supervision of State and National governments makes dishonest banking very difficult Bank failures in the United States are rare. There is no business in which there is so as there is in the banking business. This bank is examined by the State Banking Department every year.

SoiA by aU Raise the Limi# 1JVERY farmer who has access to a pile of stable manure u or who keeps live stock on his farm should have a good manure spreader, a Corn King, this year. Don't let power and help conditions keep you from raising as much as you can on every acre. Use a Low Corn King spread­ er and either fertilize your fields before planting or top difess your growing crops this year. There is no easier,, surer or better way to secure a paying increase in crops from every acre you plant How would a thirty-bushel to the acre increase in corn or a ten-bushel increase in wheat look to yoif this year? All right, then buy and use a Low Corn King Manure Spreader Wlwwls just the right distance apart, and spread tride enough to top dress three rows of corn at once. Three sizes--small, medium and large. All narrow boxes! All steel frames with working parts of the spreader securely attached to the frame. Turns short. Drive from both rear wheels. Return apron driven by worm gear, which insures even spreading up hill and down. Pull comes straight on steel frame. Solid two-inch rear axle working in roller bearings carries seventy-five per cent of the load. All steel beater cannot warp, shrink or rot. Built up to International Harvester standards of quality In every respect. Buy a Corn King spreader and use it. .JThe increased yield from a few acres will pay for your spreader this yeaff.
