Postcffice Candidates Are Unllmberlng Guns For a time it looked as though the po3toffice contest would result in a field of several Democrats being against two Republicans, but The Sentinel understands the contest has narrowed down to only one Democrat and one Republican.

Mrs. Hester Goldsmith, who has taught several successful terms of school in the consolidated district south of Cheney, and Keith E. Cox, editor of The Sentinel, will be the only candidates. The above statement is based on those who took out papers at the Cheney postoffice. Papers could have been obtained from Wichita or Washington.

The contest will be a friendly one between candidates. Mrs. Goldsmith and Mayor J. F. Cheatum are circulating petitions for Mrs Goldsmith and are obtaining signers.

Harvesting and Threshing At Standstill Until Next Week Threshing and plowing, and in fact, most all farm work has been at standstill since Saturday on account of excessive rains. The storms of Sunday and Monday night were entirely too real for comfort.

Most of the farmers have their wheat cut, yet there are some who have as much as 120 acres standing. Threshers believe that it will be the first of next week before any threshing can be done.

Working along these lines, WAYNE, ROBINSON COMPANY of Richmond, Indiana, have been unusually successful in the design of a Money-Maker hay press for the Fordson. Unusual strength, dependability and capacity are the important qualities needed in a press to be operated by the Fordson. AH these qualities are secured in the design and construction of the MONEYMAKER.

Strength is secured by putting into each press the highest quality of material and the quantity of metal necessary, worked up in correctly designed parts. Take, for example, the gears that must withstand intermittent severe strains. The most carefully compounded semi-steel is used in casting them and in addition, they are given rigid, permanent alignment in a continuous iron bed plate and heavy bearings. Neither in the making of the gears nor in the construction of the frame is any sacrifice made to meet competition. It has been the SWAYNE- Robinson Policy for eighty years to build the best tools possible without regard to the price at which competing tools might be sold.

Fortunately for farmers, the policy has made sales so large that quantity production of MONEY-MAKER has kept the price down to the lowest level. WULF BROTHERS Don't worry about high wag.
