diately and this lasts until about Au- gust. But during this period the cows flow is naturally heavy anyway. About the time pastures dry up, a spring calving cows milk flow begins to fall off and by the time she is put on dry feed of sufficient quantity, her milk production has generally fallen off so much that it cannot be brought back to normal. On the other hand, when COWS ealve in the fall, their owners will see to it that they get plenty of dry feed to provide for the heavy milk production of winter. Then when the cows begin to fall off in the spring and need good succulent feed most, the pastures come along to keep up their milk flow.
 8. It is important to be able to do most of the dairy work when other farm duties are light. Winter is the lightest of seasons for farm work. When cows ealve in fall, the bulk of the years dairy work comes in win ter.
 4. When a man has his COWS calving in fall, he will unquestionably have a greater inducement to grow silage corn and fill a silo for winter feed for his stock. In this way, he is led into the practice of using silage. the most economical winter feed for cat tle.-Glemson College.

HIGHER PRICES FOR COTTON
sects and Demand for Staple Will Increase It's Value.

Before the Christmas holidays cot ton will reach 15 cents pound" de clared Representative Thomas B. Heflin of Alabama to a Washington Post correspondent the other day And the cotton growers are not go ing to let go their crop until they get the top price. you may be sure of that Even now cotton is bringing i'll some localities price higher than that quoted on futures in the exchanges. The department of agriculture has es- timated a crop for 1915 of 1f,500,000 bales; it will be nearer 10.000,000 bales. The acreage in the cotton states has been reduced fully 4.000,0 which will mean a reduction of 5.000.- GOO bales from last years total. In Alabama and some of the other states the boil weevil has been unusually ac tive this year and the storms in Tex as, coupled with the rust, have mate rially injured the crop there. The cot ton growers are not going to be caught by the spacious representations of for eign nations that would buy our cot ton at prices they might offer. Great Britain made cotton contraband in the belief that it would knock down the price to six cents or whereabouts and that then it could buy up the crop and resell 1t at twenty cents. But our people know that there is a great de- mand for cotton all over the world and that there will be a greater demand when the European war is over. Cot ton is used in the manufacture of two thirds of the war munitions, and this constant drain on the crop total is bound to bring an increase in the price. The cotton crops in Egypt. In dia and Russia are not what was ex- pected. a2d England undoubtedly looked to the United States for the greater part of it's supply. and she ex- pected to buy at practically her own terms but for once England is going to be fooled Our cotton growers are not to be seduced by the false reports of big crops here or in Egypt.

MULCH FOR THE STRAWBERRY
Protection Is Afforded Both Plants and Fruit-ShouId Be Applied in
 Fall Before Frost.

fBy C W. RAPP. Department of Horti-
 culture. Oklahoma A. and M. College.
 Sullwater1
 Mulches are one of the most im- portant factors in successful straw berry culture, for by their use protec- tion is given to both plants and fruit
 The straw mulch. which is most ire quently used, should be applied late in the fall, preferably before frost. When applied at this time it serves as protection throughout the entire winter. It's use largely prevents the heaving which is so noticeable in many patches. The mulch also holds much water, with the result that the patch IS better able to withstand the dry summer weather. During the spring the mulch protects the berries from dirt. which is dashed upon them by the rains if the ground is bare. If the spring is late, in the home garden the mulch may be raked over the plants to protect the blossoms and fruit from frosts.
 After the berries are picked the mulch should be washed into the soil Where this is done, much humus and plant food is added with the result that greater yields may be expected

STORAGE FOR SWEET POTATO
Keeping Qualities Depend Upon Va riety Grown and Upon Methods of
 Handling at Digging Time.

The keeping qualities of the sweet potato depend upon the variety grown, the type of soil in which it was grown. and the methods of handling at dig ging time. Clay soils on which high ly nitrogenous fertilizer has been used will produce rough cracked potatoes. Such potatoes are generally poor keepers. A poor sandy soil will pro- duee small, well matured smooth. un- cracked potatoes. Such potatoes are usually good keepers.
 Too much care cannot be spent in digging the potato If carelessly dug and handled the potatoes become bruised, hence they very easily rot. When digging it is best first to cut the vines. preferably with vine cut ter, and then run under the potatoes with a regular sweet potato digger. The diggers are similar to a blow but have fingers attached to short mold board After digging, the plants or hills should be lifted and laid carefully in piles, after which they can be picked off by hand. This method will prevent a lot of needless handling and bruising When the potatoes are shak- en off in heaps, or are picked and pitched to heap or into a basket they are badly bruised and skinned. and when Tn this state are in very favorable condition to rot. Before be- ing placed in storage they should be allowed to dry out as much as possi- ble
 The successful keeping of sweet potatoes depends on the following principles:
 l. Harvest potatoes before they are frosted.
 2. Don't bruise them. handle as lit tie as possible when digging.
 8. Throw out all cracked and bro ken potatoes.
 4. Dry out as much as possible be- fore storing.
 5. Keep dry.
 6. Keep warm-North Carolina Ex pertinent Station.

CHANGE Quit Coffee and Got We'll.

A womans coffee experience is in- teresting. For two weeks at time l have taken no food but skim milk, for solid food would ferment and cause such distress that 1 could hardly breathe at times, also eXcruciatlng pain and heart palpitation and all the time l was so nervous and restless.
 From childhood up l had been a coffee and tea drinker and for the past 20 years l had been trying different physicians but could get only tenn porary relief. Then I read an article telling how some one had been helped by leaving off coffee and drinking Postum and it seemed so pleasant just tG read about good health l decided to try Postum.
 'I made the change from coffee to Postum and there is such a difference in me that I don't feel like the same person. We all found Postum deli cious and like it better than coffee My health now is wonderfully good.
 .As soon as l made the shift to Postum l got better and now my trou' bles are gone. l am fleshy, my food as similates, the pressure in the chest and palpitation are all gone, my bowels are regular, have no more stomach trouble and my headaches are gone. Remem- Der did not use medicines at all just left off coffee and used Postum steadily" Name given by Postum Co.,, Battle Creek, Mich.

 Statement Printed Below.

Clio, Ala.-'I had been in good health until I was IS years old," writes Mrs. A. L. Shell, of R. F. D. No. 1, this place, but one day.. I was helping my father plant cotton in the field and was caught in the rain. .. At that time l got very i'll .. l suffered great agony in the lower abdomen. right side, and had dreadful sick headache. also pains in the back. got dreadfully thin and simply gave entirely up. l had to go to bed and was there, on my back, for two weeks.
 "Dr. said I'd have to have an operation I wouldn't hear to that, so. as my mother had used Cardui with great benefit she recommended that 1 take Cardui... Soon after l began taking it, I saw an improvement. and was able to get up and be about my work.
 q was nearly entirely well :. when one day :. l scrubbed the whole house, washed clothes, for in the family, and got my feet wet. This caused an other sick spell... So l turned again to my old friend. Dr. Cardui. After the use of less than bottle again l was able to be up and about my work. I also fieshened up again, got good color, and I am now in good health |. I highly recommend Cardui. It is the best tonic that I know of. J

The kiekinq Horse.

The cure of kicker" is difficult task. There are many remedies ad- vised. but even the best is sometimes intellectual. It may arise from vice or from excessively nervous disposi- tion. One of the common appliances used is to swing a bale of straw be- hind the horse so that he may kick until he is tired without doing injury to himself. The bale will swing to and fro and irritate to the point of persuasion that there are more profit able vices than kicking.

Notes of the Feed Lot

When skim milk is fed to young pigs. they should be started on it gradually and it should always be fed with little meal and other feed.
 The natural feed for hogs Is not liquids but solids, therefore we can not understand how some men believe they can fatten hogs on slops alone. Many of them keep on trying year after year, but never succeed.
 As the hard work oases up on the horses, cut down their feed accord ingly.

Champion shorthorn Cow and Calf.

A mistake made by a great many farmers in South Carolina is to have their COWS calve during the spring months.

WHY GIRLS LEAVE FARM

Hundreds of girls leave the farm home because they will not live such a life as their mother has led. They see the mother getting old and longing for a little spending money. And the girl says: q will neve- marry farmer. for l will never have any money of my own. The chicken and egg money belongs to mother. but she is entitled to more. and sometimes we feel as if the chicken and egg money was great favor and she uses it for the bread and butter"
