Half Your Living
Without Money Cost

A right or wrong start in 1917 will
make or break most farmers In the
South. We are all facing crisis.
This war in Europe puts things in
such uncertainty that no man can
foresee the future with any degree Of
clearness.
The sure and certain increase in
cotton acreage means lower cotton
prices next fall. Cost Vi all food and
grain products is high, SO high that
no one can afford to buy nd expect
to pay out with cotton.
It's a time above all others to play
safe; to produce all possible food,
grain and forage supplies on your
own acres; to cut down the stoTe bill.
A good piece OF garden ground,
rightly planted, rightly tended and
kept planted the year round, can be
made to pay half your living. Il will
save you more money than you made
on the best five acres Of cotton you
ever grew!

To My Brother.

BY GARNET PRUETT JR.
! love my Brother,
His name is Joe,
He loves his Mother,
And plays in her biscuit doe.
He always talking,
And is never good,
He's always walking,
And with a AK he cuts wood.
He never talks right,
Nor either do I,
And he is never in a fight,
But he shurely loves pie.
He talks to himself.
And gets mad.
And Jumps up on the shelf.
And it hirts him bad.
He helps the cook,
Wash the dishes,
And reads a book.
And doesn't wish wishes.
