THE STORE FOR THE PEOPLE!
The increase in our business for the past five
months means something. There must be a cause
for it. We think there are several:
1. Our long experience enables us to select goods
that please the public.
2. Our large sales require constant additions to
our stock, therefore, we always have the latest goods
to offer.
3. The immense volume of trade enables us to do
business with the smallest possible margin of profits.
4. Our customers appreciate our efforts in their
behalf.

Ruta Baga Tnrnlpfi and Alfalfa.
The reason why we associate these
two crops is because the character of
the soil and the preparation of the land
and fertilizer for both are very similar
until time comes to sow seeds.
After broadcasting stable and otber
manure over stubble land turn the
whole under as deep as possible,
smooth surface and then roll or run
smoothing board over. This packing
down smooth preserves the moisture
ana cauHes an ioui ?eeu tu epiuui mau
is near the surface. Kepeat this harrowing
and rolling every eight to
twelve days until time to plant. This
cultivation with harrow and following
with roller destroys weed seed,
(the great enemy of both crops,) and
at the same time fines the soil and
= brings the moisture up to the surface
where the young plants need it. If
commercial fertilizers are to be used
this should be applied by harrowing
in about a week before planting the
seed. As to how much fertilizer to apply
I could not advise without knowing
the land, But it is safe to state
that the deeper preparation of the soil
the more fertilizer can be used and less
on shallow soil as the amount of humus
or rotted leaf mold in the soil governs
the amount of moisture stored
there for the use of plants in dry weather,
it is never safe to apply a large
quantity of commercial fertilizers to
to lands destitute of humus and depend
entirely upon rainfall to supply
the necessary moisture continuously
at proper intervals to dissolve plant
food for the plants as needed.
We have had good resiilts with say
400 pounds high grade acid phosphate,
100 pounds kainit, and 200 pounds cotton
meal per acre. Wood ashes, lime
or land plaster are in many cases
cheaper and do better than kainit, but
more pounds should be used. If lime
. plaster or ashes are used this should
ho onnllcH At. Hmp of hrpflbincr t.hp Innri
SeediDg Turnips: Mark of rows 20
to 30 inches wide, about one and a
half or two inches deep, drill in the
seed, and cover by rolling ^ common
wheelbarrow once or twice in furrow.
This packing the seed down in the
moist soil in the bottom of the trench
out of danger from scorching sunshine
insures a good stand and permits
working in a little loose dirt
about the young plants that gives additional
protection from scorchingsunshine.
Cultivate with a very light
small weeder or harrow at first, finishing
up with larger cultivators. Thin
out to width of common hand hoe.
In the Piedmont section planting may
be done from middle of August to mid
die of September. The later plantings
are less woody, more nutritious
and keep better through the winter.
Bank as you would potatoes.
Planting Alfalfa or Lucerne Seed:
If you have the soil in fine telth and
comparatively free from weed seed, as
will be the case if you have commenced
preparing the soil in time,
there is no doubt in my mind that
thick broadcast seeding is preferable
to seeding in the drill. The only advantage
in drill seeding is that it permits
the killing of weeds and grass
by cultivating after planting, dnd my
experience Is that if cultivating is com
menned after nlantinc that it must be
kept up at great cost or weed seed will
keep on coming, and eventually choke
out the alfalfa during some rainy spell.
In the Piedmont belt seeding is best
done in September to last of October.
Sow seed on smooth, loose soil, and
Eress in the soil with a roller. If you
ave no roller a smoothing board will
do fairly well to press the seed in if
done just right.
About Inoculation: Wherever plenty
of stable manure is applied new, or
has been used in considerable quantity
during last few years, you need
ot worry about inoculating; your lunarrtu
a/ill nnt ncaH ancthlnn rvf tViaf
sort. But where commercial manures
are used on land of uncertainty as to
inoculation, no doubt about it being
eafer to have the seed inoculated by a
by a reliable firm, where inoculated
Boil cannot be obtained at reasonable
cost.
Caution.- Now there is a great deal of
rot, passing around through the sterotype
press these days that no donbt
leads the novice into the delusion that
the mere seed sown on almost any soil
will misteriously bring forth a wonderful
crop, all brought about by the
magic properties in the seed alone.
- Any one possessed of a reasonable
amount of common horse sense; ought
to know that unless the stuff it takes
to grow alfalfa, is there available and
in the right preparation in the soil,you
need not expect the seed to gather up
eomethiug from the soil that is hot
Available in the soil. Perhaim the
writer baa lost more money on alfalfa
during tbe last 35 years than all other
seed combined, simply from tbe lack
of experience we now have. A good
rich loose clay loam of all soils is best
for Alfalfa. Any old salt lands tbat
bave been manured heavily for years
a make a fine Boil for AlJalfa. Alfalfa
^ roots goes down deep into tbis ground
and utilizes tbe rich salts tbat bave
c leached and gone too deeep in the
soil to be reached by the roots of ordinary
crops.
Good crops of Lucern or Alfalfa
and Ruta Baga turnips furnish all
1- stock and poultry on tbe farm with
good nutritious and healthy and suculent
food the year round. All stock
love Alfalfa, either green or in hay.
Many years back our minister to
France?Gen. Davie ?stated that in
portions of that country the poor people
used atfd eat this Lucerne or Alfalfa
as greens.
From early in tbe fall until late in
tbe soring all stock, poultry and peo
pie enjoy turnips and* when the last of
March comes, Lucerne is ready to take
the place of winter turnips for all
stock, aDd keep this food supply going
IT again until turnips come again in the
j[ fall. For winter feed for hogs, turnips
and cotton seed boiled together at the
rate of one lb. cotlon seed to four lbs.
of turnipB make a fiue food for bogs,
a In order to learn hogs to eat this ration
mix in a little bran or meal to start
with, then gradually take out the
meal and bran. In feeding Alfalfa lo
bogs or young colts and calves cut it
when young and tender; we commence
cutting a patch [sown last fall]
close to the barn this year 5th of Mar.
_ It was then from 10 to 14 inches tall,
and will continue to cut this patch
about once every 30 to 35 days which
at will give a growth of not less than 60
inches during the year. Do not try to
er grow this crop unless you do it right.
