A BIG DEAL IN FARM DIRT
A CHICAGO FIRM BUYS 1000
ACRES IN DOUGHERTY COUN-
TY. WILL PLANT PECANS.

The Albany Herald reports that
several large deals in Dougherty
county farm lands have just been
consummated, by which titles to sew
en- thousand acres change hands.
One of the most important was
the sale by Mr.. A. P Vason of the
Vason place, 1000 acres, to Proc
tor & Fuller of Chicago for $4,000.
They will plant pecan trees. Mr..
Vason retains the use of the land
for farming purposes while the pc
can trees are growing to maturity.
The same firm also purchased from
Judge F. F. Putney the Solomon
place, near Putney, which will also
be planted in pecans. This planta-
ton also consists of about 1000
acres.
In years to come the pecan groves
in this section will be places of great
beauty. The trees are being set out
IN conformity with plan which will
make the groves symmetrical, with
broad avenues at set intervals, lined
with magnolia and other ornamental
trees. Thus the pecan groves will
present the appearance of extensive
and Well-kept parks in a few years
from now.
Two other deals of interest in
Dougherty county land have recently
been cOnsummated. Mr.. Pierce
Crockett of Wytheville. Va, has pur-
chased the Beach Grove plantation
of $500 acres, from the Red Cypress
Lumber Company. The price paid
for this land, which is on the edge
of Baker county, has not been an
nounced. Mr.. Crockett has stated
that he will enclose the plantation
with wire fencing, and it is under
stood that he will place live stock
on the property.
Mr.. Crockett has also bought the
Boyt place, five miles southwest of
Albany. This property consists of
five hundred acres of fine farming
and timber land.

ent with ton of seed $4,000, a ton
of 1922 fertilizer, which has 24O
pounds of plant food against III
pounds in the ton of seed. The
farmer can easily see it will not paw
him to manure with seed at these
prices. He can get 1900 pounds of
meal for ton Of seed. 1t has been
proven by our experiment stations
that 900 pounds of meal is equiva-
lent in fertilizing value to one ton
Of seed. A careful experiment has
shown that by using on one plat
20 bushels of seed and on another
300 pounds of meal with an equal
amount Of muriate of potash and
acid phosphate the meal plat made
a yield of SO pounds more per acre
than the seed. These experiments
being near the same every year are
in favor of the meal. Now, the farm
er should make a calculation and
see how much it will pay him to use
meal instead of seed. Cotton seed

This idea is daily appearing on
French models. Whether or not it
will succeed remains to be found out,

SUBSTITUTES GOOD AND BAD
Those That Are Allowable and Others
That Should Be Distinctly
FroWned Upon.

IL is not snobbery, but the last rem
nant of a justifiable theory that OBJ
jects to the substitution OF white bun
ME for ermine and black kittens for
fox and lynx. The full-grown black
cat is not a matter for so great regret,
and herein rests the foundation of
the whole tale of the understudy. II
the hardy black cat be called into
requisition, and should its skin be OF
sufficient toughness to hold together
for a season, the cat is, In itself, a
no more despicable animal than the
fox, and, letting aside the question OF
the killing of said cat for his fur, he
should be fairly well received. II,
however, he be but kitten and not able
to render up that certain wear and
tear for value received. he should In
deed be Stunned. Some women have
the courage of their convictions, and,
when moneyless, are not averse to the
warmth supplied by common, ordi-
nary black cat, even although he be
not absolutely lynxlike in appearance,
and provided he will hold together for
a season. Things that wear, in other
words, are not miserable limitations,
but reputable understudies.
Paste jewelry is in every case the
dubious substitute for unattainable
elegance, whereas the semi-precious
stone. with its wealth of color, set in
simple metal is the durable, the desir-
able understudy

opinion that counts.
AS to sleeves, plain sleeve is only
seen in a severe tailor dress. All the
rest are draped and braided and made
in sections which fall over lace and
other gauzy undersleeves, these giving

casion as is the models
Silk cashmere or yelling could be
used for this dress. But, If something
less expensive is needed, the cotton
crepes supplied for evening would be
admirable, and plain or lowered rib
bon would charmingly form the Dor,
dering.
The simplicity of the drapery here
shown defies worry, for II is possible
to cut each half of this tunic in a sim
gle piece and use a double row of
stitching for the waist gathering. The
plain elbow sleeves, with their border
finish, are very stylish, and at pinch
the tassels which finish the ends of
the drapery could be the cotton ones
supplied for wash curtains. With any
colored cotton crepe these would be
acceptable, for with colored dress
the white tassel could be overhung
with narrow ribbons in the same
shade, and be exceedingly stylish.
AS the dress stands, 1t is made of
pale violet yelling with a border of
cream canvas worked in dim green.
The vest is of cream-colored batiste,
and no more than IL yards of single
width goods would be needed for the
frock.

LAST YEARS DRESS

Plain effects In dress are seen on ev-

impossible to find reasonably priced
one of good plain effect. But II one

that the hundred and one ways OF

effects alone. Here are dozen pretty
ideas for piecing out last years dress.
for putting two materials together and
quite good half dozen different sorts
of trimming.
The color schemes appear at first
glance eccentric in the extreme, for
there are rich, dazzling hues with
grays as dull as the foundry's smoke;
coral or pale blue with violet; green
with azure; everything under the sun
with brown and black and white.
The many tunic effects are equally
liberal in their whispered words to the
home sewer, for over dull gray satin
slip a blue spangled net may be
draped, and this in turn, may show a
gray border; while many giddy over
skirt may be of one color and the rest
of the dress of quite another. A band
bordering. suggestive of the entredeux
outlines a number of the tunics, which.
if they are not overskirts, are fishwife
aprons, or Greek draperies, or effects
which more than suggest the old-time
polonaise.
