FALL BEANS MAY BE A PROFITABLE CRP Clemson College, Aug. .15.-Those farmers willin gto take a change be tween broken , market and loss re sulting frot early frost might find profit is planting beans for market ing during! October. However, se rious consideration must be given soil, varietp selection, soil prepara tion and planting to avoid prevent able loss. South Carolina marketed success fully at a profit a good number of shipments of string beans last fall about October 15; some of which were sold on Florida markets, and for this reason the planting is like ly to be heavy this year, thinks Geo. P. Hoffman, Extension Horticultur ist, who quotes, an old and experi enced trucker to the effect that "Suc cess in growing truckcrops is found in staying in the game and getting ahead of the other fellow both in quality and earliness." String beans require from 55 to 65 days in which to be ready for use, depending on weather condi tions. Because of broken or poor stand the fall crop will not give as many hampers per acre as will the spring crop, but in many instances the price is very much better. In planting beans thought must be given not only to the general recommendations suggested above but to careful cropping details, as a good stand and beans to ship at the right time are what results in profit. It is wel Ito select a well drained yet not extremely dry loam soil, avoid ing "frost pockets," and to prepare well, bearing ili mind that a firm seed bed is what insures a good stand, which can be had on grain stubble. From 800 to 1000 poundq of an 8 per cent phosphoric acid, 2 S CHILDREN to be saved. It is extremely d cpensive to the government for a child to grow to be old in sin and crime. It costs millions to save an old man from the error of his way. A child can be saved at the threshold of child hood and thus save his soul And so ciety untold expense. The father who uses his automobile on Sunday to take his child away from the church not only breaks the Ten Commandments, but he is a curse to the child and a menace to this gov ernment. The father who spends his Sunday on the golf links is a fraud so far as a religious influence is concerned, and he is a menace to the spiritual devel opment of his child. It is the business of the father to be in the Sunday School with his child, and it is the business of the child to be in the church tw by the sidc of his father. Why do people neglect to bring their children to Christ and into the church? Such parents and such ne.. glect are bringing untold sorrow and expense and reflection upon this coun try. The juvenile courts and the penal institutions are full of the children who come from such homes. Parents, you arc either a curse or a blessing to your children. If you neglect your Sunday duty you arc a curse to them. Children ought to he in the Sunday School and church if the nation is to be saved.

Only the Late Refugee variety is recommended, as the foliage protects the beans against early frost.

NOTABLE PROGRESS REPORTED FOR BETTER SIRES MOVEMENT There is every . reason to believe that the rephtcement of scrub and grade sires by pure breds is on the increase. Reports . received by the United States Department of Agricul ture from county agents in various parts of the country show that the "Better Sires-Better Stock" move ment is having a noticeable effect. A recent statement by M. G. Liwis, county agent of Rockbridge County, Va., is typical of a large number. "The pure-bred bull movemeet," says Mr. Lewis, "is progressing rapid ly. Since January 1, 16 farmers have disposed of grade or scrub bulls and are -using registered bulls instead. On the other hand, there %,e no less tha'n 50 men in the county who still-persist in holding out against the progress and development of the livestock in terests of the county by keeping in ferior grade or scrub bulls. I have a list of 56 owners of such bulls. Some of these men have grades that are fairly good individuals, while others have scrubs that are the worst kind of a dlisgrace to the community and te the county. "The cost of a good registered bull is so small now that it is a mystery why any farmer will keep anything else. Many records have been kept during the last few years to provei out the acutla value of a pure bred bull in dlollars and cents.' Sonmc of these actual figures wvere obtained recently by the Repartment of Agriculture through an inquiry sent out to more than 500 farmers throughout the United States. These mn gave it as their opinion that in all kinds of farm stock pure breds have an earning power more than 40 per cent better than common stock. It is noteworthy .that in the case of dlairy cattle, whose productive power can be easily measured, pure breds wvere con sidred to be 47.8 per cent better than rommon cows. The lowvest percent age given for any kind of stock was 36.8 per cent. COLORADO POTATO BEETLE NOWV MENACING FRANCE Although plagues of insects that attack our crops often become gol ually less destructive, through adap tation of control measures and the de velopment of a liking for the pests by native insect or bird enemies, they stil lexact a huge tribute each year from the former. A case in point is the Colorado po tate beetle, wvhich in its eastwvard march 50 years ago threatened to wipe out the important potato crop. Its dlistribution toward the South and West and has been less rapidl thani that dlirectly eastward, and it is wvell controlled by natural enemies andl the use of insecticidles. The amount an nually expendled for arsenical poiso's and their application against this pest prchably reaches $20,000,000, Although the control of this pest is now well understood by American po tato growers, its recent appearance in France in the vicinity of Bordeaux fas lausing much alarm to French far mers and ontomologists In has p.. _______Page Seven 0* The new Gloodyear D Cross-Rib Tread Cord Discounting the "Discount" in Advance You don't have to be a shrewd bargainer to get the bottom price on the new Goodyear Cross-Rib Tread Cord. Instead of listing it at a high price, to enable the dealer to attract you with a so-called 'long discount," we list it as low as we profitably can. You can see from the figures below that its advertised price is lower than the net price you are asked to pay for many "long discount" - tires of unknown value. We believe the average man would rather buy tires on this frank and open basis, and assure himself a product of recognized worth. - The new Goodyear Cross-Rib Tread Cord is made of high-grade long-staple cotton, and it embodies the patented Goodyear method of group-ply construction. In design, materials and manufacture it is a representative Goodyear product, built to safeguard the world-wide Goodyear reputation. It has a different tread from the famous All-Weather Tread Cord a new tread with a deep, clean-cut, cog-like pattern-and it sells for subntantialy less.
