Because only GULFPRIDE starts from the finest Pennsylvania crudes ... is refined to the same point as other fine motor oils . . * and is then further refined by Gulf’s exclu* sive Alchlor process! This process is the most efficient ever de veloped—tlie fruit of 15 years’ research by Gulf scientists—men who stand behind every Gulf product. Read the facts on this page. Then drive into any Gulf dealer’s—and replace your old summer-worn oil with GULFPRIDE now. - (Above)-MANY WORLD'S RECORDS on land, sea, and in the air have been set with GULF PRIDE OIL. Racing drivers, fliers, , speedboat pilots swear by it. Proved in the toughest competition, GULF PRIDE will outwear, outlast, and outperform any oil you ever used in your car! THE ALCHLOR PROCESS' removes all sludge and residue.. Proof: we took 6 of the finest Pennsylvania oils we could buy and put them through the Af- chlor process. It removed 20% waste from already highly re fined oils! Be wise—get GULF PRIDE—the only oil that has- this head start. (Left)—4 TIMES AROUND EARTH. A man drove his automobile on GULFPRIDE OIL 100,000 miles—without ever needing a repair, with out ever having the head off the motor, without ever adding one drop of oil between drains.

When this happens, the appetite improves. Nervousness disappears. Energy and strength usually return. You feel like a new person. Get Pursang from your druggist. A Three Days’ Cough Is Your Danger Signal No matter how many medicines you have tried for your cough, chest cold or bronchial irritation, you can get re lief now with Creomulsion. Serious trouble may be brewing and you can not afford to take a chance with any thing less than Creomulsion, which goes right to the seat of the trouble to aid nature to soothe and heal the inflamed membranes as the germ-laden phlegm is loosened and expelled. Even if other remedies have failed, don’t be discouraged, your druggist is authorized to guarantee Creomulsion and to refund your money if you are not satisfied with results from the very first bottle. Get Creomulsion right now. (Adv.) ginned to Oct. 18, 1935, crop of 1935. Very respectfully, James E. Bell, Special Agent.

State of South Carolina, County of McCormick. Cotton: Census report shows that there were 2,058 bales of cotton ginned in McCormick County from the crop of 1936 prior to Oct. 18, 1936, as compared with 3,973 bales The present agricultural conser vation program through its grants, 1 based upon the average crop con ditions, will serve somewhat as in surance against crop losses. This will prove beneficial not only to thcusaPds of farmers but to busi ness communities in the state. , Because of the summer drought ( situation, especially in the Pied- | ment section, farmers have not made as much cotton as they ex pected to make, and the grants by the Government will do much to Mde them over the winter and spring months. We have pointed out in a pre- ’ ious article that in this agricul tural conservation program the Government is not engaged in farm jolief but in a well considered na-' i ’■onal agricultural program which can be defended from the stand- | point of general welfare as easily rs can many of the policies gener- ally accepted as essential to the sound prosperity of the business community. I South Carolina must depend to p great extent upon the produce of its farms to supply its wants. The business community therefore should be constantly concerned as to the current income of the farm people. Income means ability to bay, pay debts,-and in vest. - Since ^ Columbia, Oct. 24.—For the ninth time in 10 years Dan Bickley. vet eran 4-H corn club champion who is now a freshman at Clemson Col lege. wen the sweepstakes corn ex hibit at the South Carolina State Fair.

TXt Five Pointers Given} For Better Pastures Spartanburg, Oct. 24.—Five es sentials for better pastures are be ing demonstrated on Soil Conser vation Service projects of the South. Carolina Piedmont, in cooperation with the Extension Service and the Experiment Station, according to the cooperating authorities: These five essentials—conserva tion of moisture, increased fertility, proper seeding, controlled grazing, and proper maintenance of pas tures—not only furnish better graz ing but by providing a good sod give better erosion control. Terraces and contour furrows conserve moisture and help to con trol erosion by reducing the velocity of the water. Terraces of the same type and with the same grade and vertical interval as used in culti vated fields are being constructed in pastures. Contour furrows are made by plowing small ridges- on’ the contour at horizontal intenrals of 10 to 20 feet. Dolomitic limestone and acid phosphate may be used effectilraty" for increasing fertility of pastures, but specific recommendations- oF the Extension Service should’ be- carried out, says Ernest Carnes*, state coordinator of the SOU Con servation Service. Barnyard ma nure should be distributed over galled spots so that vegetation’will’ cover the entire area. Seeding of common Irspedfexa;. whitfe Dutch clover, or Daria grass-, on Bermuda gives a sod which will permit a maximum amount? of p -azing over a long period of the* ;-rar. Mowing at regular intervals v ill control obnoxious weeds antT J urnish tender grass at all times. Controlled grazing by pasture ro tation requires the- location and fencing of pastures so as to per mit shifting of cattle, from: area to • another.- - - ■
