The expression, "a quarter"; is seldom used there. It is invariably "two bits". It is, moreover, much easier to say "six bits" than "seventy-five cents." Explanation of the origin of the term "bit" comes from the reference to the monetary system in 1792, when the Spanish milled dollar became the unit of money. At that time there happened to be coined under Spanish authority a piece of silver for Mexico representing the eighth part of a dollar called a "real" after the name of a coin in Spain, and with the same value as the early American shilling. Yankees used the shilling as a com muii expiesouiii, <iiiu aumtr c<ui rciuciuber when farmers in the Central and Eastern States employed their extra help at so many shillings a day. Six eight, ten and twelve shillings was heard in all lines of trade. When the "forty-niners" went to California and the Southwestern part of the United States they found that dos reales of the Mexican was the equivalent of two shillings in the United States. Later dos reale? became common as a quarter. Americans have absorbed very few Mexican words. While the language is filled with German and French words few Spanish words are found. The American never learned to say "dos reales," but they may have Americanized that amount by saying "two bits." Henc-j it may be that "two bits" is of Southwestern and not Eastern origin. o 666 has proven it will cure Malaria, Chills and fever, Bilious Fever Colds and LaGrippe.

RECORD YIELDS OF' COTTON PER ACRE THREE BALES PER ACRE GROWN ON FIVE-ACRE TRACT?HOW YIELDS WERE OBTAINED ' v y C. A. McLendon, Soil Improvement Committee. The Farm Journal. Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, conducted a cotton production contest for the season of 1919, ? v*r? recently awarded to MiU yi l?vo the three farmer* producing the highest yields per acre on fire-acre test patches. The first prise of a gold medal aad one thousand dollars ($1,000.00) was 1 v. awarded to J. O. M. Smith, Commerce, Georgia; the second prize of a silver medal and five hundred dollars ($500.00) went to S. J. White, Sumter, South 'Carolina; and the third prion of a bronze medal and two hundred and fifty dollars ($250.00) was given to Willlanr Peterson, Clinton, North Carolina. All of these farmers practiced the same general methods of production, such as selection of the best lead available, thorough preparation, the aae of the beat aeed obtainable, good .cultivation, and proper harvesting. The winner of the first yrise applied per acre 2,200 pounds of a earnplete fertiliser (104-2), analysing DO per cent of phosphoric add, 2 per cent ammonia, and 2. per cent of Y*I aah. He alao uaed 1,100 pounds of ;"V add nhosphata and 11 tons of stable manure per acre, applying all ?C the fertiliser just before planting time. He planted the Piedmont Pedigreed Cleveland seed, and his yield of lint cotton per acre on the teat patch was 1,380 pounds, or approximately three bales. Cotton at 40 cents per pound and seed at $80.00 per ton, the average yield of 165 pounds of lint per acre in Georgia last season amounted to $78^0 for the lint and seed; whereas, the yield of 1,360 pounds of'lint per acre on this patch sold for $625.60 far the lint and seed, making a difference In returns per acre of $546.80. The winner of the second prise used per acre 1,000 pounds of a complete fertilizer (8-3-3), analyzing 8 per cent of phoophoric acid, 3 per cent of ammonia. and 3 per cent of potash, all being applied at planting time. He also applied 200 pounde of nitrate of soda per acre about the 25th of Jnne. He planted the Cleveland Big Boll seed, and his yield of lint cotton per acre on the test patch was 1,197 pounds, or approximately two and twofifths bales of 500 pounds each. Cotton at 40 cents per pound and seed at $80.00 per ton, the average yield of 220 pounds of lint per acre in South Carolina last year amounted to $101.12 for the lint and seed; whereas the yield of 1,197 pounde of lint per acre 1 on this patch sold for $556.92 for the list and seed, making a difference in returns per acre of $451.80. The winner of the third price applied 1,000 pounds per acre of a mixture of fish scrap, acid phosphate and cotton seed meal, broadcasting all of this with stable manure just before planting time. He also made a side application of nitrate of soda in the' middle of the growing season. He planted the Peterson's Improved seed, and his^yield of lint cotton per l acre on the test patch was 1,040 I pounds, or slightly over two 500-pound bales. Cotton at 40 cents per ponnd and seed at $80.00 per ton, the average yield of 280 pounds of lint per acre . in North Carolina last year amounted to $133.72 for the lint and seed, whereas the yield of 1,040 pounds of lint per acre ofl this patch sold for $493.84 for the lint and seed, making a difference in returns per acre of $360.12. Taking into consideration the cost of picking and handling the extra amount of cotton produced and the extra amount of fertilizer applied on these test patches, (.here is still a balance of returns in favor of these higher yields of from $300.00 to $400.00 per acre, which is well worthy of the deepest consideration on the part of the cotton farmers who expect to produce cotton with profit under tbe present conditions. In the profitable production of cotton in the future larger yields per acre wML be the keynote of success. This can be accomplished by practicing more intensive methods, including the intelligent use of commercial fertilizers. To obtain the best results in producing cotton a liberal application of a complete fertilizer should be made nt planting time, and where the boll % weevil is not present s'dt applications are usually made with profit. o Notice To Subscribers Note the date on the address label of this paper it gives the date your subscription expires, and if same is noe renewed and paid for in advance^-'' the paper will be discontinued, 1 r . ft* *
