I believe that soil fertilty is fundamental; and knowing that the Coastal Plain soils, generally speaking are deficient in organic matter, I will strongly advocate the improvement thereof by drainage, Mining by the planting of leguminous and non-leguminous cover crops; and by intelligent crop rotations. 3. I believe that every farm should be self-sustaining: therefore, I will urge and encourage the growing of food and feed for the family, for the work-stock and for all domestic animals on the farm, with a small surplus for a cash income. 5. I believe that the scrub animal and the scrub field-seed should be discarded: therefoie, I will encourage the use of better sires and better seed for bigger profits. I believe that no time should be wasted in making a safe, sane and well balanced farming program: therefore, I will use the intelligence and power with which God has endowed me to bring about, in due season, the realization of "The Full[SUMMER COLDS] ! usually leave a trail of weakness.

Grady: "When every farmer in the South shall eat bnead from his own fields and meat from his own pastures and disturbed by no creditors, and enslaved by no debt, shall sit amid 1 his teeming gardens, and orchards, i and vineyards, and daries, and barn- s yards, pitching his crops to his own wisdom and growing them in independence, making cotton his clean * surplus, and selling it in his own ' time, and in his chosen market, and . not at a master's bidding?getting his pay in cash and not in a receipted mortgage that discharges his debt but does not restore his free- 1 dom, then shall be breaking the ' fullness of our day." o RETURNING PROSPERITY \s evidence of returning prosperity, and the accumulation of savings and the willingness and desire of the public to invest surplus funds in a safe and sane manner, Howard T. Cree, director of the Government Savings Organization of the Fifth federal Reserve District, has informed the local postmaster that the people of this district have purchased in the first six months of this year Treasury Savings Certificates to the amount of $4,414,086. This is more than five and onehalf times the amount sold during the same period last year, and represents a per capita investment of 48 cents for every man, woman and child in the district. o EASY TO PREVENT GOITRE "Simple goitre is the easiest of all diseases to prevent," wrote Dr. Marine, the great specialist in this disease, some time ago. Iodine is known to be necessary to the normal i function of the thyroid gland. Goitre ' is an expression of deficiency of j iodine in the thyroid, and the ela borate experiments made recently by; Dr. O. P. Kimball on the school chil::cn of Akron, O., furnish conclusive evidence that administering a min utc quantity of iodine every day acts as a preventative in such regions where goitre prevails. _ -?-?? : . . i Chamois skin iray he cloanftl by soaking in soda and water, and then in soapsuds. ?o No Worms in a Healthy Child All children troubled with Worms have an uo- ! healthy color, which indicates poor h'ood, and asa I rule, there is more or 1 ess stomach disturbance, j GI'OVE'S TASTELESS CHILL TONIC {{iven regu- | larly for two or three weeks will cnrich the blood, ' iin prove the digestion, and act as a general Strengthening Tonic to the whole system.

Strange to say, there are still \ some farmers who are opposed to scientific investigations, but their 3 tribe is growing beautifully less. s The high cost of careless farming ? is greater than the high cost of living. 5 Every good farmer should begin now to think of fall and winter cover ; crops. They build the soil. It is human nature for buyers to like fancy packages. That is why careful selection, grading, and pack3 ii'ir of farm products pays.

Conradi, Entomologist, at the < weekly boll weevil conference here : today, after hearing reports from the field specialists who veie present for the conference and from the county agents over the state. A* the c'ose of the conference the following statement was given out: K/\?? 4 Un o \i Anlr iiic uauiui viui iii^ ui^ j/uov " wi\, while hot, was moist and generallv favorable to weevil development. It should be explained that h ot and dry weather is the weevil's worst enemy, but with the exception of a few localities we have had no such weather during the past week. Showers have been frequent and the atmosphere moist, which offset the benefits that would have been derived otherwise from hot weather. The percentage of squares infested varies, as shown by the reports, from a small per cent to (?0 or 70 per cent. This condition frequently is very misleading to farmers who are giving the credit of low infestation to one or other of the control measures they are attempting, when as a matter of fact the infestation was not there to begin with. We lcno\r this to be the case, because there have been accumulated over a period of years a series of most elaborate data in experimental work showing what results may be expected from one or the other of these various control measures under the best conditions. Keep lTp Control Measures Souare collecting when done thoroughly on the plant and on the ground is still advised throughout i the Piedmont section, and in other sections and areas where light square j infestation occurs. Frequent shallow cultivation should he continued so long as cotton does not sufficiently overlap for this t?> j be injurious. It is very necessary that tho labo situation be controlled during August ' for the purpose of square collecting and cultivation. Failure to have labor available may mean much loss. Fruiting over the state generally is very good. But. it frequently happens that individual farmers hav?~ a small crop of fKiit set at tHs * time, a condition which would hardly - i l?r? rlnr? to nnt urn 1 conditions bill - probably a poor soil and poor seed It must be kept in mind that good soil and good seed are two things ^ most necessary before one may ex - peel profit from any operation for - boll weevil control.

Hut differences of opinion between the public on the subject may lead to the inconveniences which Mr. Jones details. "A member of his family, living" away and following employment, arrived home twenty-four hours after the first application of the treatment to a patient in his house by the nurse supplied by the Tottenham Urban District Council. The visitor's employment was suspended by hi.? employers despite the official asurances that there was no further risk of infection. Twenty-two days later he was in one of the Metropolitan Asylums Board's hospitals sufing with scarlet fever. "Mr. Tones adds that this person was allowed home only on tho strength of the assurances that there was no i4isk. Further, one of the children in the house was suspended from school. In the meantime, and on the tenth day, of the patient's illness, the treatment by the nurse ceased, and the case remains in bed, while tho medical officer of health, awaits instructions from the MinitfI try of Health." o Habitual Constipation Cured in B'j ,vo 21 Days "LAX-FOS WITH PEPSIN" is o speciallyprepared Syrup Tonic-Laxative for Habitual , Constipation.

This depends on: 1. Whether the farmer is prepared to dust immediately. If so, then \vc advise him to dust, but there is no time left now to secure dusting machinery and poison, knowing that weevil dispersion is about to begin. 2. Wherever the dusting schedule has been begun it should be continued with view of i7educin<: these infestations before the dispersion i begins. naizzTOczzKiiBr?arise?wr~nam p} r -X- X -X- -X * -X -X -X -X X -X -X- -X- * -X -X -X -X- -X-X-* j ECIAL! albriggan and I fainsook U J Ffc C-* A *W **"*> ?! m uiu iLJ7fL awcn5 u iring Sale J garment jj 'THEY GO! | Ladies black and I white Ij ippers 1 E OR STRAP n. st values ever jr[ offered E| .00 Pair |, id Ladies Hose |j rs, during sale y B ; pr# pair v pair for 25c.
