Williamson Corn Method
 Is Praised for Its Results

800 pounds of suano per acre was put m, the old sweep furrow. equal auau tfty on each side. This furrow was then filled with a turn blow, the entire middle being broken for the first time at this blowing. Ten days later an. other sweep furrow was given the corn with much larger sweep. and 1t was then left in this condition until 1t be- gan to tassle. At this time seventy-nye pounds of nitrate of soda to the acre were put down In the sweep furrow. covering 1t with a new s-inch turn shovel. and 22-inch scrape The en . tire middle was broken at this blow ing with the same blow. This laid by the crop.
 The experiment was extremely sat lsfactory. the yield being forty4ffve to nrty bushels. estimated by wagon body measurement.
 Last year. 1907. followed the Will Hanson plan as to preparation by breaking the land in January with a twoshorse blow. bedding it in six foot rows with turn blow during the lat- ter part of February. and planting the corn In the water furrow in the mid de of March. also used the VII. liamson method for the balance of the ttifzer and nitrate of soda. using 150 pounds each of cotton seed meal and I4-4 phosphate and about seventy-fiye pounds of soda. This crop did not suf- fer for moisture until it began to silk. At this period my neighbors variously estimated the yield at from seventy i've to i25 bushels per acre. The ac- tuali yield was ninety-fiye bushels per acre, the stand average being ninety stalks per 100 feet.
 The present year followed the same plan as last. only breaking deeper. us7 ing three-horse sulky turn-piow. which broke and finely pulverized the soil to the depth of seven to ton tnch- es. used the same quantity of fer tiiizer and nitrate of soda as last year. The crop has not yet been hous- ed. but estimate the yield per acre at about thirty-five to forty bushels. This crop has had no rain since the 18th day of May, except slight show. CT on the 22nd of July. I consider the four principles advocated in the Will liamson method viz, deep and thor ough preparation. early planting. stunt ing and proper application of fertilizer after stuntipg as absolutely essential to the cultivation of corn on sandy up- lands in tho South.

 Mi-o-na cures dyspepsia. There isn't a particle of doubt about it; and if any Of the readers of The Advertiser are suffering from stomach trouble of any king, E. c. Fowler will soil you a box of Mi-o-na for 50 cents with an abso- lute guarantee of relief, or money back. In many eases one box will effect a permanent cure; in chronic conditions more Is necessary. But one thing is certain; one box of Mi-o-na will make you feel so much better and brighter. so much more energetic that you will not give 1t up till cured.
 Mi-o-na 1t not a digeSter. Digesters never cured dyspepsia, and never will. Mi-o-na Is a stomach strengthener that builds up the worn out, fiabby inside Of the stomach, and makes the stomach strong enough to perfectly digest what you eat -B6
