SHALL WE HINDER ENTER

A year and a half ago when we
were wishing for more horse power
! and for hay to feed horses, when hay
at $35 a ton was suggesting the great
need of tractors to do the spring
blowing and breaking, man started
to bring in large tractor via Fl.
Hall and the macadam road. While
drilling along over the macadam, he
was confronted by the local road sup
ervisor who forbid him to travel any
farther with the outfit on account of
the damage it would be to the road.
The man on the tractor had the
bump" of combativeness pretty well
developed, and he sat up and said
he would neither stay there nor go
back. He said he was free citizen,
that he was not a fugitive from
justice, that he had come to live and
pay taxes in Bingham county and
had already furnished part of the
money to lay the macadam. He said
that Bingham county was crying for
power to do it's farming and win the
war, and 1t was case Of, Hold the
fort for / am coming"
The net result of the argument
was that he came on into the county.
and went to clearing and breaking
with his big outfit, and is still at it.
He might better have come in by
rail but he didn't He has to stick
to one neighborhood, because, if he
went out to- another community he
would have to carry timbers with
Kim and reinforce every bridge he
crossed, and each metal culvert
would be in danger of crimping
under the load. To timber over the
metal culverts would only increase
the danger of crushing it, for in most
cases the culvert is set too high, is

Quick Acting Form.

For the best results in the cultiva- ton of general field crops, materials carrying phosphoric acid, nitrogen and some potash should be applied. Pot ash is more deficient in the light and sandy soils than in clay soils. Not less than 150 to 200 pounds of com plete fertilizers per acre should be used and hundreds of farmers find more than this amount to be most profitable. Fertilizers containing these necessary plant foods are generally es- sential for the most profitable produc- tion of all field crops. Since there is such a worldwide need for crops, and since farm products are higher now than ever before, it follows that the farmer who strives to fulfill the na- tion's needs just now by the use of such plant food as is necessary, se- cures at the same time the largest pos sible financial returns for himself

American-Made Potash
 Good As German Kind

If there is any doubt in the mind of farmer about using fertilizers con- taining Ameri2an-made potash, in the belief that it is not as good as that which was formerly obtained from Ger many, his mind can be set at rest by any chemist or agricultural authority. Any one who knows in what form the potash exists in the American-made product will declare that muriate or suflate of potash is the same to the plant whether it be obtained from American sources or Germany, and that the plant asks no questions as to where it originated, but feeds on it just the same.

Raise Home Supplies
 And Some To Spare

"Store bought" foods and feeds are too high priced for any farmer to pay, even if he could find them for sale. The wise southern farmer will get in crop of corn and velvet beans, pota- toes, vegetables Of various kinds, grow a few hogs and poultry and oth- erwise look out for the needs of his family and his tenants. With all of food products bringing such good prices, the southern farmer should do patriotic bit if he would raise enough to spare some for the armies while he is raising his cotton crop.
Judsonia weekly advance., 1918-02-20


 If the southern farmer is to do his share in producing foods for man and beast, and, at the same time. grow cot ton fibre for the nation, he must either increase his crop acreage, or else grow considerably more per acre than GUS tomary
 In view of the scarcity and high price of labor at the present time, 1t seems to be the part of wisdom for farmers generally not to mate rially increase the crop acreage, but to increase the acre yields.
 Increase Yield Per Acre
 Acre yields can be increased by better preparation of the seed bed, by the use of good seed of varieties adapt cd to the region, by using a more lib- eral application of the right kinds of fertilizers and by better cultivation of the growing crops.
 While all of these factors influence acre yields, let us call particular at tention at this time to the kind and amount of fertilizer to be used. Prac- tically all of the southern soils are deficient in phosphoric acid, nitrogen and potash and these must be supplied III SOIue lolII lo get the largest yleldS and biggest farm profits. While the proper use of these materials will in crease the yields per acre and help supply the nations needs, the wise farmer will at the same time strive to get the largest financial returns from their use. To do this, he must exercise care in buying them as well as in applying them.
 The farmer should understand that plants use fertilizers as foods only af- ter they have been dissolved by the soil water, and that which is not sol uble is not available to the plant It is to the farmers interest, therefore. to know that the fertilizers he is buy ing are guaranteed to contain a stated amount Of available plant food.

If every purchaser who has be-

prospect who is considering pur-
chase in the VALE OF PARADISE
should hold meeting and decide
to send an expert to Florida to in
vestigate for them, they would all
probably decide as follows:
l. Secure some responsible expert
from leading agricultural college.
2. Secure some one from the Iowa
State College of Ames, Iowa, as it is
reputed to be one of the best in
America.
3. Have him spend several weeks
in Western Florida and investigate
from every angle.
just such an expert is Prof. Ward

many years was an instructor there,
and he is now the General Secretary

Sage Tea Darkens
Hair to Any Shade
Don't Stay Gray! Here's an
old-time Recipe that Any
body can Apply.

The use OF sage and sulphur for re-
storing faded, gray hair to its natural
color dates back to grandmother's time.
She used it to keep her hair beautifully
dark glossy and attractive. Whenever
her hair took on that dull, faded or
streaked appearance, this simple mixture
was applied with wonderful effect.
But brewing at home is mussy and
out of date. Nowadays, by asking at
any drug store for bottle of ''Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound" you get
this famous old preparation, improved by
the addition of other ingredients, which
can be depended upon to restore natural
color and beauty to the hair.
A wellknown downtown druggist says
it darkens the hair so naturally and
evenly that nobody can tell it has been
applied You simply dampen a sponge
or soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair taking one strand at
a time. BY morning the gray hair disap-
pears and after another application or
two, it becomes beautifully dark and
glossy.
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound
Is a delightful toilet requisite for those
who desire more youthful appearance.
It is not intended for the cure, mitiga-
ion or prevention of disease.-Adv.
