"Safe Far
A program of "Sate Farming'*
for the South is outlined in a circular
which the United States
Department of AgricuUure has
sent to bankers, business men
and farmers in the cotton States.
The history of agriculture in the ,
South, it has been said, has been (
one of lean years and fat years
Short crops and high prices have
almost invariable been followed <
by big crops and low prices and, ,
id consequence, the farmer has ]
experienced much distress. The
increased attention which has
recently been given to support
ing the people upon the land has
already resulted in much good,
but there is some danger, it is
pointed out, that, with the price
of cotton rising, there will be a
tendency for farmers to return
bo the old system of gambling on
iotton. If the people of the
South produced their nown living,
,the circular points out, it
would steady the whole saystem
tnd keep the boat from rocking
The safety measures recommenled
are as follows :
1st. Produce a home garden
:or every family on the farm,

ittention to a plot of Irish or

The bridal party entered the
church on the right aisle, Mr. (
Hurvey Streater and Miss Min- *
aie Streater, brother and sister *
if the bride, leading the way to
the altar, followed by the bride j
ind groom where they were met i
by Itev. T. B. Owen who per- 1
formed the beautiful ceremony
which bound them together as ,
man and wife.
The bride was tastefully attired
in a navy blue coat suit
with hat and gloves to correspond,
while the groom wore a
conventional suit of black. '

most popular young women in t
