Pleasure for Young People.

All of US should be interested in
the bows and girls of the commu-
nifty because our own children will
associate with our neighbors' both
at school and at social gatherings.
If the majority of the young-peo.
pie have high indeals, are indus.
trious, sociable and moral, your
children will find it easy to live in
this environment. Your children
will be a part of society in your
community and their ideals will
influence the ideals of their associ.
ates.
It is your duty then to take an
active part in placing high ideals
before the young people of the
community. They will demand en-
tertainments and pains should be
taken to see that these social enter
tainments are surrounded with
moral and intellectual influences.
Let the parents and the friends Of
the young people open their homes
to worthy entertainments where
the young may find enjoyment
and become attached to the rural
community.
Picnics, fsh-fries, excursions,
etc., are dear to the hearts of
boys and girls. These pleasures
should be encouraged and ways pro.
vic for them to attend.
Social gatherings will call for
reading and study, for those who
read will be better able to converse
intelligently and to act discreetly
in public. Those who do not read
will soon find that they can't keep
up with the ones who do. AS re-
suit, reading will be in demand.
The farm paper, the magazines and
good books will be perused. Then
the social center with its library
and it's benefits of free discussions
and personal association will lift
the society of the community to
higher plane of intelligence.-Farm
and Ranch.

The Fulghum Oats.

The splendid success which DR..
w. E. Prescott has made with Full.
ghum oats this year, this being the
variety which he purchased from
Judge Hammond last fall, has caus'
ed this particular kind of oats te
be quite generally discussed recent
ly throughout Edgefeld county. In
view of the discussion. the follow.
ing concerning the Fulghum oats
clipped from Mr.. N. P. Willet's
farm letter in Sundays Augusta
Chronicle will be of interest to
hundreds of The Advertisers
readers:
"Fulghum Oats-This is a full
proposition, but unless the seed are
bought now you will not get them.
Double your oat crop this fall. For
some six years the Fulghum oat of
Georgia has been known. Its type
now is fixed. 1t is as individual
among oats as Mexican June corn is
among corn. DR.. Warbutton, the
oat expert of the United States gov
ernment, says of this oat: The
South must have an early filling the
bill than any other oat. This oat
tested by government as far North
as Arlington, Va, is making a
splendid success The Fulghum
is as early as Burt oats; ten days to
two weeks earlier than Appler, and
possibly three weeks earlier than
Texas Rustproof. The grain is as
large as Appler. ditto the stalk. 1t
is more prolific than any known oat
-seventy-fve to ninety bushels per
acre have been made. This earli-
ness, size of grain and its prolific
ness make it far ahead of any oat
KIN own in the country. It's earli-
ness insures safe planting Sec
ond crop-of cotton or forage crops.
All farmers must easily see the
great advantages that must come to
them through a prolific heavy oat
that is ten days to two weeks ear
lier than Appler oats. As we all
know, the Appler oats bring a good
premium over Georgia or Texas
Rust proof oats; and the ,Fqlghum
oat will bring good premium over
Appler oats, 80 long as it is kept
pure and unmixed. The only re-
gret is that there are 80 few seed to
be had.' ~.
