Mr.. Lott Urges Large Acreage
Wheat and Oats.
Editor Edgefeld Advertiser:


Please urge upon the farmers
through your columns the impor-
tanoe of increasing their acreage of
small grain, especially wheat and
oats. Flour, at the rate it has adj
vanced the last six weeks, will be
twelve or fifteen dollars the barrel
by March 1917. Oats at 30 cents
and s1.Oo per bushel ia a paying
crop. Every farmer should SOW
wheat enough to supply his needs,
and require his troopers to SOW at
least four acres to the plow of his
best land and four toe six acres in
oats.
We have two roller mills in the
county that make as good flour as
can be bought The display of fine
horse and mule colts, at our county
fair is an eviGopce that our people
are on the right track. If we have
plenty of grain for man and beast.
we will have easier and better times
regardless of the boil weevel.
