Dear Sir: We asked City Drug Co,
Crystal Springs, Miss, to sell Devoe.
They wanted to know, of their own
knowledge, how it compared with an.
othea paint they knew all about it
was sold right there, and considered
good.
They painted the house of w. B.
McCluney two coats on purpose to test
the two paints against n another:
one coat Devoe 6 gallons; the other coat
that other paint lOgallons. Difference
$40; So for paint, $l3 for labor.
That other paint is made in New
Orleans; is pure is considered an ex-
cellent paint, and has a good deal of
local goodwill.
But the standard of paint has been
low all through the southwest. That
paint is thin; it is, you see, six tenths
Of q paint. Devoe saves $40 over it on
half q small job.
1t is case of local best compared
with actual best.
Yours truly
F. w. Devoe & Co.

well, provided these lower grades be ar
piled In heavier quantities.
So it has been found that corn, sugar
cane, sorghum, grasses and othor crops
belonging to the grass family respond
best to a fertilizer that shall contain 10
gen and 2 parts Of potash or a 1o-S3
fertilizer. The following formulas are
in precisely the same proportions, only
they are Of lower grade, and would give
practically the same results only when e
correspondingly larger application shan
be made per acreayiz;, G's 20 cH 81
course, these lower grades can be sold
at lower prices than the high grades;
but, as a rule. the farmer will ind 1t
more economical to buy the ! grades,
both on account Of their cheaper Price
per unit" and also the saving OF freight
the latter being precisely the same. per
ton. for both high and 10, v grades.
APPLYING FERTILIZER WHEN
PLANTING.
While 1t Is certainly true, In U ex-
p~erience, that the greater part of the fer
tilizer should be applied about two weeks
before the crop is to be planted, we'll
mixed in the soil Of the bedding furrow
and bedded on, there are circumstances
that would justify a farmer in making
one or more i~ntercultural applications,
including one at the actual date OF plant
Ing. The following are such c1rcumstan.
ces:
d When a farmer has not been able
to secure the whole amount Of his fer
tilizers before planting time.
(O When he concludes, after his crop
has been planted and Is growing, that
he did not buy and apply as much as he
should have done before planting.
(O When the yellowish green color and
want Of vigor in the appearance Of tho
plants indicate that more nitrogen II
needed by the crop. ~
We believe It may be safely accepted
Of virginia Carolina Fertilizer should be
applied with, or near the seed, at the
time Of planting. The effect Of this small
application Is to supply the young plants
with available food during the first stage
of their growth, inducing prompt and
vigorous development. For this purpose
Of the same fertilizer that had been bed
ded on two weeks before planting.
A second application Of high-grade fer
tilizers may be made at the second or
third blowing Of cotton, or at six or eight
inches height Of thep plants up to Is inch
es. or the middle to last Of May, and the
middle to last OF Jun u.v =.
made in the siding furrow, or the fer
tilizer may be strewn along in the middles
ahead Of the plow or c~ultivator. There
Is no need to fear that the plants VIII
not get the benefit Of a high-grade fer
tilizer If put anyhere'' on or between the
which the writer has ever applied fer
tilizer in this way to either corn or cot
ton, although there Is little reason to
doubt that even later applications woula
benefit the crop; but probably not enough
to pay the cost Of the FERTILIZER

THE SYSTEM.

The government now has $2l5, ooo'-
600 on deposit with the banks OF the
country without interest. Ihose
banks may use this money in pur-
chasing 300, 600, 900 Of interest-bear-
ing certificates, thus getting interest,"
on government money deposited WIN
them without interest, and then the
government may turn around and de-
posit the 800, 900, 900 in cash received
for the certificates in the banks
again.
Another $50, 900, 900 of this govern
ment may be used by the banks In
purchasing the bonds about to be Is
sued which will draw interest. They
can then take the bonds and deposit
them with the treasurer and receive
bank notes for the full amount and
have as much money as they had be-
fore, which, however, instead OF now
being government money subject tf

the banks.

AT LAST.

On the bulletin board OF a Wall
street brokers' Office the following
was posted last week:
Five thousand ago years Moses
came down from the mount and
brought with him tablet on which
was written, "Thou shalt not steal. :"
Today President Roosevelt is CIV
ing the same advice, and Wall street
thinks it is news.
This of course is a plagiarism from
Thomas Is. Reed, who number of
years ago described Roosevelt as a
statesman who had discovered the
Ten Commandments"
1t was witty, and 1t was true and
1t was also a compliment to Roose-
welt. The Ten Commandments can
not be preached too much, and GER
tainly no generation has needed more
than this to have "Thou shall not
steal" preached to 1t.
