SOME GOOD ADVICE
The time has come when the farmer must live at home and board at the same place. He must produce his own food and must
raise all feed for his stock. The day of all cotton is past, and the man that doesn’t act on this idea is headed straight for bankruptcy.
The boll weevil is here and here to stay. We must meet the conditions as they are and overcome all obstacles by proper farming.
The key to the situation is in diversifying crops. If we plant a big cotton acreage next year we may wind up with no cotton. Every
body in this section should start right now to plan for plenty of food crops next year.
Every farmer in this section should sow plenty of wheat and oats to supply his own needs and some to spare to those who live in
town. And now is the time to get busy. Oats should be sown in October and wheat in November. Don’t wait too long. There is a
proper time to do everything and now is the proper time to sow oats.
\ou will need good seed oats in order to insure a full crop. We have plenty of the best seed obtainable. Come in and look at them.
We can supply your need at the lowest price. We are interested in the success of the farmers for their success means our success and
their failure means our failure. This is the reason why we have been careful about buying our seed oats. They are the best. Look
at our stock and get our price before you buy.

NOTICE NO. 3.
From looking over out* books it
seems that many of our patrons look
upon the notices we publish as a joke.
We need our money, and there is no
good business reason for not paying
when cotton is selling for 20 cents and
above. If you fail to get the medical
attention you may need, just kick your
self and hold cotton. We cannot con
tinue to serve you without pay. Don’t
get in the class with the voluntary
bankrupt. We will soon revise our
black list, and the only way to keep
your name off is to settle accounts.
To serve you is our business, to set
tle is an obligation you owe yourself
and us. No case of real charity neg
lected. 11. P (.millian
