In fact the Fordson will do every power job, both draw-bar and belt, more quick ly and at less cost than it can be done with any other form of power. So every month the whole year 'round the always dependable Fordson will prove itself a paying investment, because of its capa bilities, its economy and efficiency.

For several days following the rains the season has been good for sowing vetch nnd rye, votch and oats and crimson clover. A large number are growing these crops the coining season, according to a local seedsman, who states that be has had to order another ton of vetch seed to supply the demand. Be certain that soil from a (leid which has grown tho legume you desire is used with the seed to inoc ulate. Make the seed sticky with syrup-water mixture, and mix in tho dry soil. Keep away from direct ex posure to the sun to avoid killing the bacteria. Many failures cann; last year through improper Inocula tion. Strive for successful inocula tion and there will probably be a successful crop of vetch or clover. Oconee's hare hills should bo cov ered this winter with green crops, so that the boll weevil must hunt other quarters which aro dry. Holl Weevils Plentiful. That the boll weevil has moved with his family into Oconee has been fully determined during the past two weeks hy inspections made in a num ber of cotton fields over the county. Not only are many live weevils found, lou many small, medium and /une large bolls were found punctured, and the young stages hatching out in practically every field examined. As many as two weevils to tho boll were found near the foot of Pc Li' Mountain on S. J. Isbell's pHuce. (Punctured Ibolls containing young weevils were found. Going to the other end of the county, at J. ll. Shirley's place near Townvllle, Mr. Shirley showed in a field of late cotton that there wore as high as 30 punctures (partly feed ing punctures) per boll, the punc tured bolls all rotting. Mr. Shirley states that this field was to demon strate that the late planting meant certain failure. All of this means that Oconeo farmers in the future who plant cot ton do so at more risk than ever be fore; that cotton grown on a smaller scale must be given the careful at tention that has proven of advant age in other boll weevil sections, such as fall destruction of stalks and cleaning up, early planting of early varieties, etc. It further Indicates that as cotton is not so safe in the future, that all nome supplies must he produced that can possibly be grown; that soil building must help lejsen the tre mendous fertilizer dobts, and that yields may bo increased per acre. And in addition, certain other money crops must be developed to help provide cash in addition to cot ton. This means more apple orchards and more livestock and hogs, with an abundance of feed for them; more sweet potato storage houses to help market the potato crop to advan tage. In order to market successfully co-operaitlve car-lot shipping must come to carry the producta to t^ie right-markets, where there is a de mand. This cannot be done in a day, a week or a year, but is IS BOUND TO CO.MK, and with it will come a prosperity the Oconee farmer has never known before. Delaying too long will be dangerous. Fino Bull Bought. The Oconee Jersey Bull Associa Hon received last week from one of the foremost Jersey farms in Vir giiiia a bull of the most excellen breeding, costing a little over $200 tlollvered. This bull was Prim' Doublo Finance, an 1 S-months-old Einimal, sired by Double Finance, a famous bull, having won first place at tho National Dairy Show of Ohio over fourteen entries, and the sir of Double Finance's Snowdrop, the junior champion of the Southeaster Fair in Atlanta last year. On the dam's side there is an official recor of 10,010 pounds of milk and 71 pounds of butter, Good records go back several gen era lions to Oxford Lad, whoso daugh tor won the certificate of merit foi the highest but.ter-fat test on the Isle of Jersey, from whence some of the ancestors came. One of the an costors sold for $4,500 and another for $3,500 In .Inno of this year. An association can buy better bull than any individual al the least cost per member. The annual show will bo held in Walhalla, probably on \'ov. 16th. Over tho Farms. W. B. T. Looney, of the Fairfield ?ioetion, lias a wonderful crop of vel vet beans, the Osceola variety, grow with corn and running all over it in great profusion. Tho large beans liang in great clusters, there seem ing to be several pounds to th ?talk. Mr. Looney states that thrt it tho bunches weighed two pounds Tho corn shows up well also. The only fertilizer applied was stable manure in tho drill. Tho soil seemed Lo bo of only medium fertility. Blakely King, of Oak way, has coi mrvosted in shocks along tho road near Oakway, and In the mlddh crows a fine exhibition of the bunch velvet beans, which have made argo growth and have retained their ;reen, growing look throughout the lry spell.

While many devices In other groups also save steps, there are a few pieces of equipment which may he called distinctly stop-savers. Chief among these i# tho kitchen cabinet, which combines a pantry, table and shelf space into ono article of fur niture. No one piece of kitchen equipment does more to co-ordinate utensils and working processes than tho manufactured kitchen cabtnot. Tho newest models have flour and sugar bins, cereal and spice con tainers, rack shelf space and adjust able moulding boards. When used with a stool, such a cabinet savos endless stops 'by grouping within arm's length of the worker both sup plies, utensils and lools needed tn many kitchen processes. The serving tray on wheels Hs another distinctive step-saver. Sev tral models are on the market somo with single, others with double, tray, mounted on rubbor-lired wheels that cnn bo steered easily. Such a tray enables tho home-maker to serve a complete meal with one or possibly two carryings of dishes, or to clear the table with similar ease. This kind of tray can also be used excellently as n stack-table when there is no drain to the right of the sink, or il can be used to wheel clean dishes fe the pantry, avoiding constant trips and the dangers at tendant on tray carrying. Larger ?ind more massive styles are found in tho tvptcal'holel dish-cart, which can be used equally well in tho large household. A unique refrigerator, most ex cellent in country homes particu larly, is a worth-while step-savor. This "elevator ice-box" looks like other small refrigerators, has three compartments, hut is operated hy clock-work pulleys. It ls so installed that the pressure on a button in the door causes the ice-box lo risc up into the kitchen or a similar pres sure causes its descent into the cel lar. This saves tho hundreds of tedi ous steps entailed by the country home-maker who has to koep many food products "down cellar." And If the cellar ls cool, this Ice-box can bo satisfactorily used even without an ice supply. Any other device or equipment which co-ordinates work, such as these: A tool basket with compartments, a house-maid's bucket with places fur rags, foap, powder, etc., speaking tubes or "house" tele; '.' ;.. can be grouped pro perly ; ? he important head of step-si nd hence energy and Ofter- " . >rS \ out People. t.e ?omi ' demonstration agent w i. fi senville on Friday and Si imlay tiding an agents' meet ing c-f ' .
