HALF YOUR LIVING
WITHOUT MONEY COST
Continued Southern Farm Prosperity
Dependent on Cutting Produc-
ton Cost Through Food
Making and Saving

Atlanta, Observation-Disclosures OF
thousands of farmers in the South
will face the problem Of making cot
tor under heavy weevil in1estatton
for the first time in 1920. Their sue.
cess or failure under these new o
ditions will be absolutely dependent
on the degree that there is food, grain
and forage produced on their farms
this year." said H. G.. Hastings, presi.
dent of both the Georgia Chamber OF
Commerce and the Southeastern Fair.
"a few weeks ago the newspapers
carried the report that an Alabama
county was preparing to erect .
monument to the boil weevil, because
of the good the weevil had done them
in forcing them out of the Affection
poverty producing rut, into the pros.
perity that always follows a diversity
of crops and the production on home
acres 5fyesery pound possible Of food,
grain aid forage supplies needed by
the family and lie stock.
Our good people here in the South
have never, until very recently, taken
the home or family vegetable garden
seriously as a source of food supply
1t has been looked on strictly as q
side issue, something of little impor
lance, something to be attended to the
last thing on the place. The home
garden, rightly handled, a be made
to produce half the food needed by
the family and practically without
money cost.
"The average lick and promise sor1
of a garden has little value. To be
OF real value the garden must be plan
ned tor, really prepared for, planted
right and kept cultivated through the
season, and cultivated whenever need
ed. That kind of a garden will keeI
its owners table well supplied with
an abundance Of healthful food sever
or eight months in the year, as wei
as furnishing an abundance of canned
n dried vegetables for winter use.
Every mess of vegetables direc
from garden to table, every can or jal
of home canned vegetables from clos
ct shelves, makes a hole in that store
bill that is always a terror when set
Ting time comes.
Good home gardens have been rea
life savers to thousands of southern
farmers who have gone flat broke
trying to meet store bills. A gooG
garden will cut the store bill until its
size is negligible. Give the garden {
fair chance and a square deal in 1921
and the result will be %agreeably sur
pfising."

Just A Few Words To
Our City Subscribers

Many complaints reach The Daily
Commonwealth office every day con-
corning the non-delivery of the paper
to residences and offices throughout
the city, and we are exceedingly anx-
ious to remedy this trouble. We want
u subscribers to call attention to
these ~delinquences on the part of the
carrier boys, because II negligence
In this matter is equally as annoying
n regretable to us as it possibly can
be to subscribers who are entitled to
get their papers regularly and prompt
ly-and when they fail to do so, we
appreciate having our attention called
to same, in order that we may endeav-
or to remedy the trouble. However.
please don't "bawI" us out over the

ing TO impress on the carrier boys
the Importance Of delivering the pap
ers regularly, pras lptly and careful

will very materially prove helpful,
