OLD AGE

Invest your earnings in land or city
property. If YOU have money in bank
paying you ) per cent and YOU pay
per cent taxes on that, leaving you
one per cent net profit, why don't you
buy a farm or piece of city property
that will net you anywhere from S &C
II per cent.
BUY A HOME
If you haven't enough money to pay
all down. pay what you have and get
started right. City property is on the
increase in price.
BUY A FARM
1t is not necessary to pay 500 and
$3.50 per acre for land. Buy farm
that has been neglected. run down.
Roll uo your sleeves and get to work
on such a place. build it ~ and you
will soon have high price land. You
can get such farm from s65 to $50
per acre and won't have it long until
the selling price will be s125 per acre.
You can readily see what that means
to you and your family. We have in
mind a farm Of more than 100 acres
within five miles of Richmond. that
a few years ago was purchased for a
shade less than $50 per acre. The
place was run down, neglected. Today
it cannot be bought for 1925 per acre.

The Time TO plant.

ne Time 70 rlaUts
So little has been done u this mat
ter OF growing winter cover crops be
tween the rows OF cotton that we are
not entirely sure when Is the best
timc TO plant each OF the various
crops that may be used. There Is a
mechanical dimculty. too. In many
cotton fields BY reason Of. the fact
that many OF the branches OF the cot
ton plant reach across the row and
mtermingle 50 that Il seems quite
impossible to drive horse through
the row to cover seed that may be
sowcd IN the fall months On poor
upland soil where the growth OF the
cotton stalk Is very small Il Is quite
easy to do this and Il is really these
soils that need winter legumes To
SOW the winter grains In the cotton
field at the time the crop Is laid by
seems to be too early. but n not done
az that time the only other desirable
time seems to be Immediately auog
the first picking. for at that time the
seed could be sowed and covered With
onc-horse cultivator without knock
ing on any OF the cotton. The ad
vantage of the bur clover In the mat
ter of time of sowing is that a. may
be sowed when the cotton Is laid by
or even earlier. and It will not get
TOO large during the fall The seeds
are slow in starting and are not like
" 10 show much before October even
though the seed are sowed In July.
Winter Cover Crops and all Flowing
There has been much said about
the advantage OF blowing the land In
the fall in preparing for cotton and
corn the following year. The writer
Is believer in the advantage OF fall
blowing and he Is also a believer In
the advantage of winter cover crops
in the fall. and these ideas. In q meas
ure. conflict. For instance. n the
land is plowed In the fall It Is nearly
impossible 10 have legume Tor a
winter crop. although Il Is possible
to use winter grains for that purpose.
Oats. barley. wheat. or rye can be
sowed after the fall blowing Is done
and these will prevent the washing
of the soil during the winter months
and will add some humus . the soil.
The farmer must be his own Judge
as 10 what plan to follow. Il Is good
TO pillow In the fall and to have a
cover OF winter grain which can be
plowcd down In the spring for the
next crop OF cotton or corn. Il Is
also good 10 have a wintr cover OF the
clovers or yetches. even though this
negatives tho idea OF fall plowign
In some circumstances perhap9 one
plan is the better. and in other CIR
cumstances the opposite plan should
be followed Indeed. one could alter
mate these plans, blowing in the fall
one year AID having a cover OF win
ter legumes the following year II
the fall blowing could be done in DC
iober there might stu be time 10 SOW

against their success when sowed 50
