In fact the general prosperity 1
of our country and the develop- '
ment of rural communities depend
more largely upon this '
c'ass thau any other. We Ihaye
not yet learned what a few acres '
can be made to produce, and our
small farmers must be encour
aged along three lines?1, to en
rich their land; 2, to grow aj*
greater variety of crops and 3, to \
read and [enlarge their mental | '
scope. Ignorance, narrowness
and poverty of [land and person '
go hand in hand.
However poor a farmer may be *
and limited his acres, wo want to
see him working on the right lines
?making a few acres richer each

ing a wash here, draining this i
piece of wot land, putting out a ,
few fruit' trees, starting a berry
patch, putting in iaore grain or
grass, buying some better tools,
getting a bettor strain of cows,
hogs or chickens, painting his
house, doing something to plant
his leet firmly upon higher
ground this year than they were
the last.
On account of our having
plenty of land and the ea?e wit])
which a homestead is obtained in
our country, our farmers do not
appreciate iheir heritage, nor do
they dream of the possibilities
within each acre of Southern
soil. We must learn more and
get to practicing better methods
upon our farms. We must begin
the intensive sys em as oui
methods and the extensive as to
the variety we produce. To
make our farms sell-sustaining.
and than have a variety of surplus
to sell is the true plan.
The demands of our market are
numerous let's supply them and
keep the money at home. A
lot of things will bring money
besides cotton?corn, oats, hay
butter, meat, chickens, eggs,
honey, apples, peaches, straw- (
berries, raspberries, blackberries 1
cabbage, turnips, melons, cante- t
loupes, potatoes, and many more. ,
The question is how many can 1
you grow? While a farmer is
struggling to solve h se pr<blems
upon his farm, lis should
also be working lor the educa- <
tional and moral uplift of his
community. We do not hold
ou' to inese small farmers any |
probability of becoming wealthy
0.* of being able to seize the a<i
vantages that city and trade
holds out to their successful de |
votees, 1 ut v\o say as Christ said
of Mary?you have chosen I ho 1
'better part" and have all within
your reach, all that goes to
make k,life worth living," and
it is your boundon dulv to make
your soil yield her lull increase?
to make yourselves a blessing to
your lamily, to your community,
and to all "with whom you have I?
to dea1 and to do." In making I
larger yield and improving your
farm-*, you not only get a great
er annual income, but your lai d
increases in value, and you
thereby add to your capital or
wealth. As anexaraplool what

produced the following :
18 acres cotton made him 16

no deleterious or habit-forming

entering into its composition has the full
endorsement of those most eminent in the
several schools of medical practice. Some
of these numerous and strongest of professional
endorsements of its ingredients,
will be found in a pamphlet wrapped
around the bottle, also In a booklet mailed
free on request, by Dr. R. V. Pierce, of
Buffalo, N. Y. These professional endorsements
should have far more weight
than any amount of the ordinary lay, or
non-professional testimonials.

insist on knowing what they take as medicine
instead of opening their mouths like
a lot of young birds and gulping down
whatever is offered them. "Favorite Prescription"
