The words, “Grown in Chester- field County,’* will be a “prideful and valuable trade mark” for farm pro ducts sent to market from that sec tion if the farmers of Chesterfield car ry out their plan 8 in the organization of one of the most singular coopera tive associations ever set going. It is a farmers’ cooperative that calls for no paying of dues, no subscription to stock, and, so far, no financing. The enterprise is so devised that it can comprehend everything having to do with farming in Chesterfield County. The first objective is the putting of farms in order, s ay.« Jules S. Mc Gregor, head of the organization. One the few fixed rules i 8 that every member must play absolutely fair, not only with other mmbers but also with buyers and consumers of his product. What i« sent to market must bJ exactly what it i 8 sold for. “Plating” bales of cotton—that is, Nobody’s Business By Gee McGee. i , believe in it# bunk about socialism * ain’t anything but a big old bluff.

Local and Personal News of Blackville be fed satisfactorily shelled oats as their only grain ration. The reason for specifying grinding oats for cows and not for calves and heifers is that when grown milk tows are fed unground oats, 12.1 per cent passes through the alimentary tract withoi^t being digested, while this loss is only 5.5 per cent with heifers, and Blackville, July 18.—Mrs. Frank and lodging.

(3° Where you please On your Vacation... \ « Mother likes the mountains—sonny wants to go to camp and so does little sister—dad must work most of the summer— but they may go where they please and still keep together ’by telephone. Mother and the children may arrange to call dad regularly at a certain time, at office or home. It makes vocations more enjoyable and dispels anxiety to hear the voices of loved ones, telling of the day’s happertings. Calling at a prearranged time enables you to use the' cheaper station-to-station service with no risk of missing the person wanted. If you call by number at night there is a still further reduction in cost. In using station-to-station service, ask for the distant telephone by number or location instead of asking for a particular persph. When the distant telephone answers# you may ask for whomever you want. Wherever each member of the family goes this summer, thb local te!ephone_stffice will gladly give the cost of calling back home. Just ask for M Long Distance.” 4.
