Mfty 31.-^The 38 per cent decrease in the wheat crop, together with a tremendous shortage of other foods, makes it imperative that the farmers shall make every acre planted this year to other crops than cotton, produce the maximum of food and feed. Unless this is done a food famine wiH be the certain re sult. Corn .will occupy a large acreage in South Carolina this year as usual; but corn planted alone does not produce the kind's fttnxlmum of food and fend. It has been Shown that when legumes are grown with c'orn, a larger total amount ot food and feed can be pro duced than with corn alone. Velvet | beans surpass all other legumes for this purpose, and therefore every acre of corn In the state this year should be planted to this crop. Tli^ greatest yield of velvet beans is always secured by planting early in (he spring, but they interfere less with the growth of corn when planted about one month after the corn. This latter practice is advocated this year, for in this way a large amount of for age for winter grazing will be secur ed in addition to a good corn crop. The corn should be gathered in No vember and the cattle turned in as soon as frost falls. The velvet beans should be planted in the com rows unlesfe the corn has been planted far enough apart to al low the beans to be planted in the middles. Two seed planned to a place. 4 feet apart in the rows, will re quire about IV pounds of the small seeded varieties and about 17 pounds of the large seeded varieties per acre. Tlie early maturing varieties, such" as the Yokahoma. Osceola. Wakulaa. Tracv No. 1, and Manatee, are advo cated.

But they are not Genuine Ford parts made by the Ford Motor Compiny. They are made by concerns who have no connection whatsoever -with the Ford Motor Company. These imitation parts are Rot even made from the agine grade of steel, or under the same formulas used by the Ford Company. They are counterfeit parts. Tests have shown them to break when the genuine Ford parts didn’t even bend, and they generuliy are from thirty-five to one hundred per cent lower in quality. The Authorized Ford Dealer is your protection. As such, we handle nothing hut the Genuine frord parts. They are made from the famous Ford Vanadium Steel and each part—according to its use—is heat-treated in the way that will give it the longest wearing qualities.
