eage in cotton on my farm this
iv 25 per cent, and 1 will use
y half the amount of fertilizers j
sed last year," said Mr .1 A. j
dges of Heath Springs, in our ,
!sence yesterday. Mr Bridgep
?es about 80 bales per year,
elve acres to the plow is what
ilways puts in cotton but this
ir ho will only put nine. Every

1 do will be better off next fall.
Vn observer of such things says
t there was less drunkenness in

making of two prohibition I
