LL STORE Cut Your Store Bill Down One Half' Tens of thousands of farmers as well as town and city folks cut down their store bills one-half last ye i r and saved money in spite of generally short.crops and re duced wages. Absolutely millions of dollars were saved and countless families lived better than ever before in the face of the cotton crisis and general business depression. How were these burdensome store bills cut down? By the real money-saving power of good home gardens, rightly planted and kept planted and tended through the season. - Hastings 1916 Seed Catalogue tells how to cut store bills down; tells about gar deln and farm seeds of kinds and a qual ity that cannot be bought from your mer chant or druggist.

Stewart of route 2 came into The Sentinel offiee one day last week to subscribe for the paper. He had been getting The Sentinel up until a few weeks ago, and as his folks sometimes told him there was nothing much in the paper he decided when his time was out he would not take it any more for a while. But he said when the paper stopped its regular weekly visits it seemed like a member of the family had gone away and he decided he didn't want to do without it any longer. His family, too, missed the regular weekly visits, so he had it started again. Of course we are mighty glad- to have him back with us and hope he will remain with us a long time and we will try to make The Sentinel a welcome visitor in his and all other homes where it goes. The Sentinel is a Pickens county family paper and should go into every home in the county.
