Never have these mighty champions been beaten. They've out-pulled every team they've ever met. These magnificent Belgians are Nature at her best. They arc animals to which Nature has given the vital spark?that necessary, natural balance of all the elements of which champions are made. Natural balance is everything! It's the difference between this team of powerful champions and common, ordinary plugs. It's the difference between the best and the rest in almost everything. And here's another example of Nature at her best?Natural Chilean Nitrate. This nitrogen fertilizer is favored by Nature with ? the champion's vital spark?the natural balance of the elements that make a champion. Into Chilean Nitrate Nature blended the vital Impurities?the combination of many major and minor elements over and beyond nitrogen.-Through countless centuries, Nature has aged and matured this nitrogen fertilizer in the ground, that you may return it to your ground as the safe, sure, balanced food for your crops.

May is.?Development of j a commercial sweet potato industry! will give increasing quantities of oft grade potutoes which can be proiltahly utilized aw food for livestock, thinks c (j Cushman. extension dairyman, who believes that under certain conditions it may bo practicable | to grow sweet potatoes solely aw a succulent feed for livestock. ---Several dairy farmers iu South Carolina are utilizing sweet potatoes successfully uw a wucculent feed for dairy cattle," says' Mr. Cuwhinan. 1 wo farmers near Charleston grow sweet potatoes specifically to feed to dairy cattle, and report satisfactory results. Scott of the Florida Kxperlment Station found that 100 ponmlw of sweet potatoes was equal to 150 pounds of corn silage for dairy cuttle. "The sweet potato is the highest of all root and tuber crops in total dry mat tor per lou pounds with the exception of Cassava, which is only slightly higher. lite sweet potato runs 51.2 per rent dry mutter uh compared with 20.2 per cent in corn silage. Kach 100 pounds of sweet potutoes with 31.2 pounds of dry matter contains 25.8 pounds of total digestible nutrients, while corn silage lias 17.7 pounds. "It is generally understood that .in soil adaptable to sweet potutoes, land that will make 20 bushels of corn per acre would produce 200 bushels of potatoes. Corn will make approximately one ton of silage to eaeh live bushels of corn, which would give four tons of corn silage per acre as aguinst five and one-htilf tous of sweet potatoes. If we value corn silatie at $6 per ton, then each ton of potatoes would he worth 23 ceuts per bushel harvested and ready to feed. "Furthermore, the sweet potato vines have a value as a roughage crop In cattle feeding. They can he used in a more practical way when cut and fed green or when grazed moderately. Hut because of their length and habit of rooting at intervals, they are difficult to harvest and cure. In that state, however, the vines do have a higher feeding value than the poor quality hays." Loans To Farmers Through Association Loans made by the Kershaw Production Credit Association during the first quarter of the year show an increase over last year, according to A. C. Bradham, secretary-treasurer of the association which serves this county. I Over 1107,738.00 went to farmers in cash loans during the first three months of the year, compared to ? 102,343.00 in the same period In 1935, Mr. Bradham said. Authorized to serve farmers in Kershaw and Lancaster counties, the association made 412 loans during the first quarter for an average amount of $261.50 per loan. Farmers used the loans primarily to purchase seed, fertilizer and farm supplies, Secretary Bradham stated. "With a good outlook in farm conditions and production money available at reasonable rates, many farmers in this section are starting to finance their operations on a cash basis," he continued. "Storekeepers and supply merchants are selling to more farmers for cash this spring than for a number of years. With continued improvement In farm conditions, a large number of store accounts will probably be transferred to cash accounts due to the financing of production credit associations, banks and other lenders equipped to handle farmers' short-term credit needs on a business basis at a reasonable cost." Former Governor Len Small, the "fatJier of Illinois paved road system," died Sunday at Kankakee, 111., aged 73 years. He had Just completed his fifth campaign for governorship of the state. He had served two terms.
