Half Your Living
Without Money Cost
We are all at a danger point. On
the use of good common sense in our
1918 farm and garden operations de
pends prosperity or our "going broke."
Even at present high prices no one
can plant all or nearly all cotton, buy
food and grain at present prices from
supply merchant on credit and make
money. Food and grain is higher in
proportion than are present cotton
prices.
It's a time above all others to play
safe; to produce all possible food,
grain and forage supplies on your own
acres; to cut down the store bill.
A good piece of garden ground,
rightly planted, rightly tended and
kept planted the year round, can be
made to pay nearly half your living. It
will save you more money than you
made on the best three a'eres of cotton
you ever grew!
Uastings' 1918 Seed Blook tells all
about the right kind of a money say
