YOUNG FRIEND IF GEORGE
 WASHINGTON COULD
 RISE FROM HIS GRAVE

and see our cities lighted bright as day. hear the whirI of the electric car, talk over a wireless telephone. send a message by wireless to a ship far out at sea, examine his own bones with an X.ray. view the snowy fields, slnny plains and canals of Mars through a telescope, ta k e a flight from ocean to ocean in an ar ship, get run over by an automobile going ninety miles an hour but what's the use going back a hundred years? A sys- tenn of shorthand and bookkeep- ing twenty years old are of but little use today.
 As the steamship has crow ded out the sail boat, the typewriter the goose quill pen and polk berry ink, so have the famous Byrne systems of business train ing, bookkeeping, sUenotypeWrlt- ing and shorthand taken the place of the old systems. The reason is plain; these systems cut the time and cost of becom- ing an expert accountant or a stenographer in half, teach busl- ness as well as bookkeeping, let the student begin earning while the student of the old systems is not half through his course; they give the student a better practical knoWlege, which means a better salary,
 These practical, modern, time saving systems can be had Tn this section only at the Tyler l Commercial College. You would not think of riding in an OK cart in preference to an automobile. Then why think of studying the ] old OK cart systems of account ing and stenography when you can get the Byrne systems which possess such wonderful advan- tages that they enabled the management of the Tyler Com mercial College to build in the short space of fifteen years, the largest business training school in America, with an annual en- rollment of more than 2,000; a school that has enrolled pupils l from 36 different states and six foreign countries.

When you pull down the town in which is your home. you are pulling down yourself, and when you build up you are building up yourself and your neighbor. Try and banish from your mind the mistaken idea that all good things are away off iniother To- cality. Give your --town all the praise it can legitimately bear. It certainly will do you no harm and will cost you nothing; and above all patronize your home institutions including the print ing office.

STRANGE TALK AND
 REASONABLE ADVICE

We are not going 10 apologize for our birth and existence. We are here and mean to make the most of it. Do you ask how :.
 By giving our readers their money worth in the shape of good and useful information re- gardlng the country and the ln- terest we represent and in keep ing them posted on all the news In this section. Are you with us? If so send us $1. Don't tesitate or you may regret it.. We give all the news and $l
 will bring it to you a whole year and much seasonable advice. Drop in and see us when in town. It WIII cost you nothing and it may be we can do yon some good that Is our mission.
 We do not expect to become q Vanderbilt by means of the pro ceeds resulting from the publi- cation of this paper. but if every subscription was paid up to date
 we could pay our debts and have enough surplus to get us a new hat.
 And now to change the sub
 ject. we are fast finding our way into every house in this county. Have you anything you want to sell to our country brethren? If so our prices for space are low. Get terms and be happy. If you want to talk to us. We go right out among the people, in their houses, their shops, their places of resort. and tell where you live, what you have for sale and how you sell it. We don't stop there; we press them to call on you. We hunt up customers for you and then try to bring them face to face with VOL. If we fail in getting you customers at first, try again and again. and again, ffty-two times a year. Is trade dull?' Advertise. If you don't, buyers will think you are weak in the knees and will patronize some one else, there fore advertise. That is if you have a good class of goods and cheap. Don't suppose because you insert an ad once at a cost of one hundred and eighty-three cents that you are going to get a barrel of money out of it. You won't even get your one hundred and eighty-three cents back. Ayar didn't advertise that way, neither did Barnum. nor A. I. Stewart. nor any other success full business man. They first fixed on their medium. They then stuck to it. Persistency won. it always does. Meet your expected customers regularly week after week for years. and they become your friends. When they buy. they buy from you. They'll never think of going to a stranger. Why should they Advertise consistently. Choose your medium with wisdom. Pay for your advertisements like a man, and you will get rich. and if you live right and die happy thank us for this revelation, timely advice and admonition.

With an annual rainfall of from 45 to 50 inches, practiclly all over the Cotton Belt, except in the southwest: with large areas of low land not naturally drained, and with soils which suffer excess lively from drouth, because oftheir formation and lack of humus, there is probably no means by which the farms of the South can be actually improved as much as by drainage. Much labor and money haa been wasted in the past in make shift attempts at drainage. The small farmer has spent time and labor in digging

The upward sweep of civilization
is not unlike the rising of the in
coming tide. It advances and re-
cedes but each advance carries hui
manity to higher altitude than
1t had reached before.-Flower.
We farmers have got to learn
that we are just as smart as the
other fellows and that co-opera-
tions are kind of universal power
which work even better for the
common man than for the few, be-
cause there are more of us. We
have got to develop leaders. What
would an army be without a gen.
eral? We must search out our
best men. We have got them, and
must find and develop them-W.

Out of this country the most of

those who fix up and brush up
their places and know how to live
we'll. The farmer who has no pride
in his personal attire and the ap-
pearance of his home and his farm
usually isn't much of success as
a farmer. There are few excep-
tions, Of course. We know that

Of live stock and his stock usually

Alfalfa is remarkable plant

grow alfalfa is misleading, but
with decent treatment, under ordi-
narily favorable conditions, it
brings good fortunes to thousands
of those growers who know it best,
and in their dealings with it use a
fair intelligence. 1t is a soil builder
but it must have building mater
ials and be met half way. It can
not give much for nothing. If it
feeds the soil it must also be fed.
There is yet no record of an alfalfa
field too heavily manurede With
this crop, as with most other ven
lures, success chiefly depends upon

could not anywhere raise alfalfa,
while there are others who do no
good with anything. Although a
