The "Farmers'
Favorite" Is
Selected by the
Experts---

In competitive tests the Bickford &
Huffman Drills always carry or the
blue ribbon. They have done this a
great many times in the past and Will
do the same trick many times In the
future.
At the State Fair, Raleigh, N. c., In
October, 1900, the manager OF the
State Agricultural Farm, located near
Raleigh, selected the Bickford & Huff
man Combination Hoe and Disc
Drills in preference over six other
drills which were put up for selec-
ton at the same fair.
Recently the Virginia State Exper-
mental Farm selected the Bickford &
Huffman improved disc drill to be
used on the farm lately established by
Virginia. This selection was made af-
ter a close comparison with every 9TH
er make Of drill sold on the Richmond
market.
The Farmers Favorite-that Is the
Bickford & Huffman Drill, Is used on
the Clemson College Farm.
Are these facts not enough to con-
vince the most skeptical? II not II
you will give us the opportunity by
coming to see us we will point out the
various advantages Of these drills that
are not embodied in any other make.

Dear Sirs: Do you want to sell De-
voc lead-and-zinc for your town and

TIE whole doctrine of it turns on
these three points:
Cd It Is all paint and true paint;
(2) It is the strongest paint:
(S) It is full measure.
Because 1t Is all paint, true paint,
ploportioned for strength and full
(1) It takes Mast for a job:
CD Locks better all The time;
60 Lasts longer;
(4) Gathers the trade, and holds
customers.
There Is no such argument for any
other paint; there Is no other such
paint; there Is nothing but talk for any
other paint. Devoe Is the paint II you
want the facts on your side.
The country is full Of experience;
we bring these experiences to bear on
your trade, If you sell Devoe.

Bavaria has IN the past been noted for

Hog Raising.

Two things are requiled in rails
ing hogs successfully. 1st, good
breed of hogs. End, plenty for
them to eat.
Because hogs are natural scaven-
gers, is no reason why they should
be fed on just ''any old thing. y
Give the hogs a decent show, and
they will give you plenty of decent
meat and lard.
Any of the improved breeds are
good. Some are more successful
with one breed than another.
Hogs are herbivorous, therefore
should haveSplenty of good pas
ture. / like a lazy hog, one that
is always willing to eat, but has
an aversion to roofing himself to
death. The disposition to root,
unnecessarily, should be controll-
ed, which can be done by ringing
their noses during the grazing sea
son. When the time comes to
root the rings can easily be re-
moved. If you have a bermuda
pasture that they can have access
to, the battle is half won; if not
you must find a substitute. Fall
sown oates and rye make an excel
lent winter pasture, and you can
safely leave your hogs on these
crops until a short while before
harvesting.
+ As early in the spring as the
weather will permit SOW literally
of whipporw1ll peas and sorghum,
SOW where the hogs can have the
run of them. By the time your
peas and sorghum are exhausted
have a pinder and potato patch
for them. Be sure they have at
all times plenty of water, also the
waste from the kitchen. Never
feed a hog on ear corn until fat
tening time if you can avoid it.
When penned for the finishing of,
corn is the proper feed, and will
fatten a hog that has been raised
as above indicated, quicker and
better than anything else. Have
your sows to farrow in October
and November. In March for
fancy fall shoats.
