AND ECONOMY DAY
County Demonstration Calls ON Forp-
ers to Come Together to Discuss I'M
pOrtant Matters.
Mr.. Editor.

Mr.. Editor.
lnclosed you will find Mr.. Longs
announcement of Fertilizer and Econ
omy Day. These two need to be men,
TONED together in Sumter county, for
In a great measure they have both
contributed to the condition of affairs
in Sumter county today. Never beforo
mas there been so much need Of the
farmers of Sumter county coming to-
gether and discussing the problems of
these two features. There are savings
or money that may not be in the in
terest or economy, and / would not adj
wise any one to cut out fertilizer en-
tirely just because he had to work
nearly all Of the year last year TO nav
his fertilizer bill. 1t might be econ
omy not to send after a. physician
when you are seriously i'll, but no one
would advise economizing in that vyav
SO let us come together and discuss
what we can afford to purchase this
year in the way of commercial fer
tiiizers and what we cannot afford to
buy. The cheapness Of some forms
OF fertilizers would be an inducement
In using larger quantities Of that kind
while the very high price Of other
forms might pay us to use smaller
proportions. In other words in MANY
instances, 1t may pay to use slightly
unbalanced ration for the soil. At this
meeting we should like to discuss
prices Of different goods, and we invite
any dealers to be present and join us
IN our discussions.
