The Drill That Makes More Grain Per Acre Now is the time to put your oats between cotton rows, and Phillips' 3-row Grain Drill is the one to use, because it puts more fertilizer to the center row and thereby overcomes the small row in the center, which is the defect in all other -drills. It is the only drill made with two wheels, which makes it as easy to operate in the crooked rows as an ordinary plowstock. Don't fail to come around and let us show you. You will readily see it is the drill you want. Anderson Hardware Co. Anderson : : : South Carolina EUGENEpVEREnpLMORE very thing MLJ very body .1^ ats Phone 56 269 Greenville No. 3 Tomatoes.
