early set bolls to develop and mature,
according to season and the manner in
which you fight the weevil, from one
third to one-half or even two-thirds of
a crop of cotton.
We have found the Sunbeam to be
a good variety and TO mature relatively
early. We have recommended it among
the following varieties as being the
most satisfactory which we have tested
for boil weevil conditions: Cleveland's
Big Boil, College No. 1, Sunbeam, Poul-
not, Hooper's, Hite's, Willets Ideal.
Covington-Toole. Cooks. Webber's 40,
Culpepper. Trice and Dixie The Sun
beam variety should answer very we'll
under your conditions if ii has done
we'll in the past Since developing the
Sunbeam we have originated what is
known as College No. l. We consider
this variety superior 10 the Sunbeam
in earliness and other qualities. How
ever only limited number of seed have
been developed as yet and our supply
has long since been distributed.
HANDLING LONG STRAWY
MANURE.
W. y. A.. EIberton, Ga. writes I want
TO know what to do with some manure
have. / nave wasted lot of hay and this
is mixed ell through the manure, but it is
not rotting fast enough.
If we possessed a considerable guam
tity of manure such as you describe we
would pile it up as comRactIy as pos
sible and tramp it thoroughly at the
same time. If it is thoroughly moisten-
ed it will heat very soon and will break
down readily. In order to prevent the
loss of nitrogen, it is very important
that you make the heap close to some
source of water supply 80 you can keep
1T thoroughly wetted down at all times.
Otherwise, when the heating process be-
gins 1t will burn up or f1re-fang, and as
a result all the nitrogen will be los.
into the air in the form of ammonia.
We believe by the method indicated
you can quickly break this manure down
sufficiently to use ii under the drill row
to good advantage for either corn or
cotton. We advise the application of
two tons and upward per acre. 1t can
be scattered directly into the drill rows
from wagon bed and mixed with the
subsoil along with such other fertf-
lizers as you intended to apply before
preparing the bed for cotton.

GIRLS! IT'S YOUR
STEP THAT ATTRACTS!

Says women pay too much heed to-
their face instead of--
their corns.
Watch your step! A brisk, lively
step is what charms more than a lovely
skin, but your high heels have caused
corns and YOU limp little. That IS bad,
girls, and you know it. Corns destroy
beauty and grace, besides corns are
very easy to remove.
Rid your feet Of every corn by ask
ing at any drug store for a quarter of
an ounce of freezone. This will cost
little but is sufficient to remove every
hard or soft corn Or callus from one s
feet
\ few drops applied directly upon a
tender, touchy corn relieves the sore
mess and soon the entire corn, root and
all, lifts right out without pain.
This freezone is a gummy substance
which dries instantly and simply
shrivels up the corn without infam-
ing or even irritating the surrounding
skin.
Women must keep in mind that corn
less feet create youthful step which
enhances her attractiveness.
