a well-made Suit will not
only outlast one that is unreli-
able but it will keep it's shape
and retain its style while you
wear it. If you have had ex-
perience with the unreliable
kind then you know how true
this statement is. As a mat

cheaper by far TO buy a Suit or
Overcoat of known quality and
repute than to buy a Pig ia

that you are practicing econ

for Clothes that are fat iron

find that there still remain relics OF
that more romantic period before the
civil war when the great families OF
the county were all powerful ana
with their slaves and broad acres

Several of the old country homes
still remain but the best preserved
and most interesting from historic
point of view Is the old Jackson place,
'srhe Forks" about four miles north
west of Florence on the Savannah
road, In the early part of the nine
teenth century this was the home of
the famous Indian chief. Double-Head
and was purchased from him by James

with It's broad collonades supporting
massive concrete pillars, Its wide halls
and immense rooms, is set upon a
beautifully wooded hill and surround

Jackson family until about Ave years

and meanwhile the land has increased
so per cent. in value.
Another example of what intelligent
farming has accomplished Is found in
F. P. Hall, of Oakland. Mr.. Hall
commenced twelve years ago on
small rented farm and no assets but
his wife and children and his own
pluck and industry. For the frst few
years he fell behind. Sthen he bought
some second hand cultivators and com
menced to investigate scientific meth
DDS Of farming. At first he planted
only such land as he could work him
self with the assistance of his young
sons. His farm was low and when
wet season threatened destruction TO
his corn he abandoned that and let 1t
make a crop of hay, and diversified his
farm products.
Today Mr. Hall owns 900 acres Of
good land. one of the prettiest farm
houses in the county. ample barns and

of $4,000. The warehouse is in East
Florence, on the bank of the Tennessee
River, and has a capacity of 5000 bales
of cotton. Stock yards In connection
make II possible for the farmers to
collect their cattle there for shipments
in car load lots. The high price of cot
ton this year has caused most of the
farmers to sell and there has been
very little cotton stored.

partmept will this sprng establish de-
monstration farms in every beat In
