' | "Sae that Cdupotu Jim" deemed like Jim Staples couldn't save a cent >\X70KKED hko a mulo, too, Jun * " did. Tough luck alwaysseouied to land on Jim. If the woovil didn't pet his cotton, the drouth did. When he got a pretty good Crop, prices went down, and Jim didn't clear cnoug'nto buy the Idissus a new hat. One day John Thrifty's wife Stoppad liy In spa Mra. Staples. Sho tv as going to town to boo cmia silk things that the big store was huving a sale on. She wanted Mrs. Staples to come along. "All right," said Jim's wfe. "but I can't buy a thing. Poor Jim's hgd terrtblo luck. Don t know how we're going to end up." And so the women got to talking. That night Jim was reading his fa vorito paper. The papa he was looking at had the "Soda" ad on it. "See that coupon, Jim. Mary Thrifty told me John's good lutk started the day he filled it out." "You sound like the banker and that young county agent fellow," said Jim. "All they talk about is Soda." Mrs. Jim aaid no more about it... but shtt sent in thn coupon. Right away some booklets came by mail. They didn't coat a cent, but they were lull of interesting things. Jim read every one of them, and halfheuitedly agreed to try a llttlo Soda as a side-dressing for his crop. It was too late to put Soca under his cotton, but ho used 130 lbs. of Soda per acre around it after chopping out. Sa ! Jim couldn't believe his eyes. His 80 acres gave him dearly 80 bales! "Better luck this year, eh, Jim," said the buyer who took Jim's crop. "Luck, nothing," said Jim; "It'a Soda!" Note: Jim Staples is one of the most prosperous farmers in his county today. He always uses Soda now,at planting, and as side-dressing. You can do exactly what Tim Staples did. Ask your banker. Ask your County Agent. Look at the records of the 15^7 Cotton Champions. Every one used Chilean Nitrate of Soda. Just below is the famous coupon... the one Jim Staples used.

Detroit, Mich., May 14.?Assurance that production of the Chevrolet Motor Company this year would top by a wide margin the million units built a year ago was felt here today with the announcement by W. S. Knudsen, president and general, manager, that Apjril was the third consecutive month thia year to set a new all-time monthly production record for the manufacture of gear shift cars. Chevrolet volume for the month just ended, Mr. Knudsen announced, was 136,832 cars and trucks?an increase of more than 20,000 over the 111,939 units built in the same period a year ago and more than twice the output in April, 1926. Of the April volume this year, more than 100,000 units were required for the domestic market, Mr. Knudsen said. Not only did April set a new record for the month, but it topped by 2,000 units the output for March, 1928, which was the previous high month. March also was 17,000 units in excess | of Fdbruary, 1928, which in turn had exceeded all previous performances in the history of the company. - - ! Combining the output of these three months with the 32,000 Bigger and Better Chevrolets built for display purposes in December, and the 91,000 turned out in January, the total output of new 1928 models up to May 1 was in excess of half the entire output in 1927. With eight months remaining in the year, optimism everywhere abounded inTthe Chevrolet organization that the year's output would shoot well beyond the million car mark. The record volume achieved to date, and the bright outlook for the future, show the measure of confidence placed in the company by the millions of people now driving Chevrolets, Mr. Knudsen pointed out. He asserted that this good will factor is Chevxplet's greatest asset and puts the company under obligation to maintain the standards of quality which the public has so overwhelmingly accepted, thus making possible the new production marks now being set. In addition to the high figures already hung up so far this year, Still higher records are possible, Mr. Knudsen said. He pointed out that ^the fifteen great Chevrolet factories are operating on a schedule for the | present month thrft may carry them ! beyond the high volume attained in April. This would he possible, Mr. Knudsen explained, because the capacity of the other Chevrolet plants was incrensed in April by a new assembly plant opened at Atlanta, Ga., with a peak capacity of 100,000 cars a year. Gives Birth To 17 Pups Anderson, May 18.?W. F. Varonee, of B?'lton, is looking around for some sort of a record to claim for his female hound. NIr. Varonee reported that the animal today gave birth to seventeen normal puppies, all of them alive and vigorous. Mrs. J. W. Groce of Lafayette, Ga., pleaded guilty in a court there to whipping a school teacher who had whipped a small boy. The court gave, her a suspended sentence of a year on the chain gang, six months in jail and a fine of $6 and costs.
