The time for procuring vetch and
clover seed is at hand and we hope
every farmer in the county will SOW
at least a. seed patch. Several far
mers in the county have saved burr
clover and vetch seed. | consider
this wise thing to do. We know
we can save seed of these valuable
winter le,gumes and better seed than
we can buy. Then why not do 1t!
We do not think it necessary to
dwell on the Importance of cover
ing every acre of land you expect
to plant next year in one of the
three great soil building plants that
do so we'll in our climate and soil.
We take for granted that you have
sown all your corn, oat and wheat
stubble in peas; if you have you are
a wise fs,rmer. Now if possible COW
er all your cotton land in grain and
vetch or burr or crimson clover. If
Won can, have your land planted
during the winter with some kind
of growing crop, nitrogen producer
if possible to keep down teaching
evaporation and erasion. We would
call you farmer on the other
hand if you do not and are deaf,
dumb and blind to this all impor-
tant system we should be forced to
call yon only planter.
Some one will want to know if

Awho depend On guano for making
crops. In our visits over the county
we find conditions very much better
than last year this time. Where the
soil has been properly fed crops are
good. Where stimulating influence OF
gusno only heretofore. has been
used crops are sorry.
People have used business meth
DDS in their operations this year
hence debts are smaller. More meat
and bread and there will be lot OF
hog and hominy on the market next
winter and spring.
Another important fact ! would
call your attention to is lime. Lime
is paying factor in agriculture.
All legumes do their best, on a
sweetened soil and I would advise
the incubation and lime to get the
best results from your clover and
vetch. We can secure a good grade
of lime for $3.50 delivered at Tren
ten and Johnston $2.5 Edgefeid

look for this pest and buy arsenate
of lead as soon as you discover
