The planting of a frat tree represents an invest ment for years, hence the necessity tor a little careful thought. A very perplexing question to decido is where to secure t^o best nursery stock for planting. There aro seve ral methods, but as a rule tho farmer has not the inclination to determine which have the greatest merits. Ho may grow the trees at home, but whe ther lt ls economy to do so ls a ques tion. The propagation of fruit, trees ls a business in itself. In order to secure vigorous, healthy trees, true to name, many prospectivo orchardists have felt justified in venturing into this business. This state of affairs has boen brought about largely by Ibo fact that countless numbers of farm ers have been swindled by tree agents. Many a farmer in this State has worked and cared for trees till they reached bearing age and has se cured as his greatest fruit bitter dis appoint : lent. Experiences ol' Mils kind have led farmers to believe that it is Impossible to secure, from nur serymen, varieties true to name. Even at an Increased cost of produc tion, tho grower should make an ef fort to secure trees rightly named. 1 believe lhere are enough honest nur serymen In thc State to satisfy this requirement. Men In tho business are able to grow trees cheaper than inexperienced persons possibly can do. The thing of vital importance lo the prospective grower is the selec tion of the right nurserymen. in most cases it is advisable to patronize home nurserymen. There are several reasons why we should favor home-grown trees 1. They are grown under the same climatic conditions and possibly In the .same kind of soil as you have In your own orchard. 2. The trees have become accli mated and will suffer no violent changes when transplanted to your, own land. 3. lt ls possible to visit the local nursery in person and select from the entire stock Instead of having the or der filled from the first that comes? to hand. 4. Ono of the chief advantages of buying at home is tho avoidance of tho long haul. SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON HY THE INTERNATIONAL QUESTION OLUH.

Following is ibo official copy ot tlie New Orleans meeting: Owing to ?tie fact that sufficient money ls riot in sight tO'Pttt tho "Hock Hill Plan," for the reduction of cotton acreage for 1912, as out lined by J. G. Anderson, of Rock Hill, to the executive committee of tho Southern Cot to-. Congress, In general operation throughout the cot ton growing States; and also from the further fact that we do riot wish to do anything that may be in viola tion of the Sherman law, we recom mend a modification of the "Rock Hill Plan" as follows: Let each Individual cotton growing State, acting for itself, and not In col lusion with any other, take up this most important matter promptly and settle lt by calling on the bankers, farmers, mercantile and manufactur ing interests for sufficient funds to pay organization expenses, and then organize by the selection of a State superintendent, who shall bavo entire charge of the work In tho State, and thus bo responsible therefor. The Governor, Commissioner of Agricul ture and State Farmers' Union Presi dent should act for the State In the capacity noted above and for raising the necessary money. The State superintendent shall im mediately-from Information receiv ed by him from any source ho deems best-appoint a county committee, consisting of three persons, who Bhall have actual charge of tho can vassing in the field. This committee should bo composed of the best and most enthusiastic men in tho com munity. One of them should bi a banker, the other a merchant and the third a prominent farmer. Tho saild county committee should at once proceed to raise sufficient funds to employ canvassers, who are to make a house-to-house canvass of the county. The business mon and the farmers can be depended upon to furnish tho necessary funds for the payment of the canvassers, provided the committee makes a personal ap peal. To ask the people through the newspapers, or even through tho mall, to subscribe money for any cause, has } never been, and never will bo, very effective. Tho selection of the county committee ls tho most important part of the work. It must be selected with greatest care and must be composed of men who are thoroughly tn earn est, and who will put their shoulders to the wheel and seo that a success ls made of tho venture. Tho average county can bo covered for from $125 to $200, and that amount of money can be easily raised by tho proper ef forts. Certainly mon can be found in every county who will do this work. Enough canvassers should bo em ployed to thoroughly cover the said county within two weeks; they should make a dally report to the county coinmittee, and the names se cured should be published in the local papers. Daily reports sho Ud be sent by tho county committees to the State superintendent, who should carefully comillie them and a synopsis given out to tho press dally. The newspapers, both daily and weekly, can be depended upon to help in every way In a great cause like this, and through them tho people can be advised of the progress of the work. They will gladly publish tho name of every farmer who signs the pledge, and this ls very necessary. It ls said by some that although many of the farmers will sign tho pledge, a great many of them will not adhere to it. Wo do not take much stock In that. A largo majority of tho people are honest and can be de pended upon to keep their agree ments. The few who aro disposed to take advantage of tuc situation will be forced by public sentiment not to do so In this case. It is suggested that, tho names be published a second time just before the planting season. lt ls earnestly recommended that tho acreage of cotton planted In 1912 be reduced not less lb in 25 per cent from the amount planted tn 1911, and that the written pledge adopted by the National Farmers' Union he used by thc various cotton growing States All reports sent In to the various State superintendents must he sent to Hon. E. J. Watson, president, by March 1st, 1912. Important Instructions to Canvassers. 1. In every case of a man signing for reduction fill out both blanks showing number of acres planted last year and number ho will plant this year. Ills pledge ls no good other wise. Don't put down how much ho will plant, "to the plow." That gives no information to those not knowing bow many plows he's going to run. 2. Report the names and addresses of those declining to sign to the county chairman. 3. Get each planter to sign up for as much reduction as possible. To strengthen prices lt will bo necessary to bavo an actual reduction of acre age and the more reduction tho bet ter. 4. Report to your county chair \ ...HMIUIU man tho names of those who pledge themselves Individually to reduce, and who will then rout or share-crop their land to others who will plant lt In cotton. To heat the hears In this fight there must he no beating the devil around the bush. Real reduc tion ls necessary. i>. Let the pledge blank, when you send lt In, show In the case of every signer bow many acres ho planted last year and how many ho will plant this year. If he signs to plant tho same, or more, let that appear. G. Do your work thoroughly. See every cotton grower In your territory, got as many names as possible. The pledges of the big planters are the moBt important, though tho small ones are vital also, as they count so much becauso they aro so numerous. Oconee County Committee.
