nufTft'-B£n~THnlfl fnOrllflDLt UNDER COLLEGE METHODS • ~ Andrew M. Soule, President. A worn-out farm of rolling and washed land, in 1908; yielded an in come of $2,757.1*4. By following the plans outlined by the College of Ag riculture the income was increased to $8,581.40 in 1912. Good Judges of the increased value of the farm for agricultural purposes claim that the enhancement in this respect has been at least $5,000. Starting with practi cally nothing in the way of live stock, a herd of cattle has been developed that is worth about $10,265. The record of this farm has been kept in a thoroughly business-like way, as will be revealed by the fol lowing items of receipts and expendi tures for the year 1912: Receipts. Dairy products $5,099.44, farm prod ucts $3,461.97; total $.8,581.41. Expenditures. Labor $3,588.85; fertilizers $979.86; foodstuffs (chiefly cotton seed meal) $1,300.50; dairy equipment $147.84 ; miscellaneous for repairs, etc., $704.62; total $6,855,889. Permanent Improvements, including building and repairs, tools and imple ments, live stock totaled $4,081. All told the expenditures for both main tenance and permanent improvements GRAZING CROP FOR HOGS. M. P. Jarnagln, Professor of Animal Husbandry. I 1 ' Inquiry—What are good grazing crops for hogs? For spring and summer planting, Canadian perns sown February 1 and Hurt oats sown March 1, each costing about $4 per acre, will afford from 20 to 40 days of grazing at the rate of 15 hogs to the acre.

Chufas, three fourths of a bushel to an acre, sow ed March 15 or June 1 at a cost of $4 per acre, will graze four hogs to j the acre from 90 to 120 days.

The American eagle on the quarter doesn’t make it worth a dollar, nor does the brand 10-2-2 or 10-3-3 guarantee the con tents of the sack to be made of the best materials—it only guar antees its actual analysis. There are materials and MATE RIALS. Old Reliable is to the sack what sterling is to silverware — the best and purest obtainable. A. D. ADAIR & M’CARTY BROS’, brands have been STERLING to the South for nearly a half century. Others have come and gone, but the OLD RE LIABLE BRANDS continue to sell and satisfy. The survival of the fittest holds good with the manufacturer as elsewhere. Penny wise becomes pound foolish when you skimp in the plant food you buy for your crop. To do so you may easily save a few dollars in the planting only' to lose very many times this amount at the harvest, when you wake up to the fact that the stingy fertilizer hasn’t produced. Here as elsewhere the best is always the least expensive in the end. Insist on our brands and insure crop success. We offer you goods ammoniated with Fish Scrap, Cotton Seed Meal, Tankage, Nitrate of Soda. Blood and Sulphate of Am monia in different combinations machine mixed to suit your soil and meet the different crop requirements. Long years of experience and field experiments have taught us. Ask any users of our goods for an opinion of them and call on our agents for Borne of the OLD RELIABLE BRANDS. If your nearest dealer does not handle our brands, write us direct. A. D.

The whole farm consists of S3O acres. The area devoted to crops in 1911-12 was 333 acres not including pastures. Of the 333 acres 80 were devoted to cow ppas and sorghum for hay, 35 acres to peas and soy beans for soil improvement, 65 acres to oats grain, 40 acres to vetch and crimson clover for soil improvement, 15 acres to cotton, 40 acres to corn for grain and 48 acres to corn and sorghum for silage. Each year an added area of the farm will be Improved and placed under permanent cultivation. Mean w-hile the fertility of cutllvated acre age will be built up. The farm is, therefore, in fair way to increase tire returns each year. This is the way the College of Agri culture Is practicing what It preaches. The farm referred to is the College farm. What has been accomplished is an example of what can be done on thousands of worn-out farms of Georgia, by use of modern, scientific methods of agriculture. acre from 30 to 40 days.

Atlanta, Ga., April 3—With all Georgia’s wonderful develop ment, this state still posseses the advantages of the old “frontier” as compared with many very crowded and over populated sec tions of the country. The consolidation of Georgia’s tax digest has brought to light at t!ie capitol some facts that are seareely realizable. The digest show’s that wild lands decreased nearly a million acres in extent during last year alone, and natur ally increased materially in value. Farm lands throughout Georgia increased both in acreage and in rtinisc value. The advance in values in Georgia is not limited, however, to farm lands, or to any special group of interests. It applies also to urban territor ies. Town and city property w a s valued at two hundred and fif teen million, six hundred a nd forty nine thousand four hundred and ten dollars in 1011; in 1912,it was valued at two hundred and and seventy-seven thousand, two hundred and eighty-five dollars.

As one grows old the waste of the system becomes more rapid than re pair, the organs act more siowly and less effectually than in youth, the cir culation is poor, the blood thin and. digestion weak. Vinol, our delicious cod liver and Iron tonic without oil, is the. ideal strengthener and body-builder for old folks, for it contains the very ele ments needed to rebuild wasting tis sues and replace weakness with, strength. Vinol also fortifies the sys tem against colds and thus prevents pneumonia. A grandneice of Alexander Hamil ton, over eighty years • of age, once remarked: “Vinol is a godsend to old people. Thanks to Vinol, I have a. hearty appetite, sleep soundly, feel active and well. It is the finest tonic and strength-creator I have ever used.” If Vinol fails to build up the feeble old people, and create strength, we will return your money. Dr. J T. Wages Drug Cos.
