CETTING BACK TO NORMALCY (By G. A. Cardwell.) Much has been said during recent months about "Normalcy," in other words, getting back to normal a 'eor the biggest spree the' United States of America ever indulged in either . singly or collectively. Before we arrive at. the happy state of affairs so greatly to be de sired, we must expect to suffer ex tremely from a state of nerves. This condition may be aggravated by low prices for our money crops next fall and winter, and further ag gravated in 1923 by the ravages of the cotton boll weevil. You may think from the above that I am horribly passimistie, but I as sure you that I am not. I ain trying to size up the immediate future as best I can, and to honestly face con ditions rather than to, ostrich like, hide my head in the sand and shut my eyes to the signs of the times. Please God, we are going to come through this crisis safely, and enjoy the fruits of the earth and the amount of prosperity that is good for us, in a few short seasons. But, we must, in the meantime, live care fully, and make ready for our ulti mate freedom from old Conditions.

I recently visited South Carolina and saw the demoralization following a heavy infestation of cotton boll weevils in the lower counties. Lets us begin to make ready now to avoid this' demoralization when the weevil establis-es a home in localities not now so badly in fested, and remember, this pest is coliig :i the top of present disastrous prices for farm erops.

If Old Father Time had been a carpenter and had decided to build a house, his first and only-choice would have been 11 CYPRESS "THE WOOD ETERNAL" because it lasts practically 3 forever,and resists decay wears out before it rots out. \ But if Father Time had not been wise to the fact, we would have said to him-as we now say to you "Buildof Cypress &You Build But Once.," "The Wood Eternal" is your "one best bet." Cy press grows in "your own back yard" and can be had on demand in your own lumber yard. Buy the grade that fits the job. Why g pay for high grades where lower grades are nere appropriate--and cheaper? But be sure to insist on THE WOOD ETERNAL" because it lasts practically forever- if you get the true "tide water" variety-and therefore means double money's-worth of lumber. Write us for list of FR EE PLANS for farm buildings-but in the mcantime insist on 'CYPRESS and no substitutes" from your local lumber dealer-no matter for what purpose you buy.
