YOU CAN GET POTASH FOR FERTILIZING Potash, for fertilizing, is scarcer than hen’s teeth. No use to look to Germany, the normal source of sup ply, for Potash can’t be gotten from there now. But you can get Potash right here at home, in fer tilizer which contains as a source of its ammonia COTTON SEED MEAL Every pound of Cotton Seed Meal, in addition to supplying from 7J% to 8% of Ammonia, also contain 2\% of Phosphoric Acid and an average of 2% of Potash. When your fertilizer contains Cotton Seed Meal, it not only supplies your soil with the desired amount of ammonia, hut also gives to it Potash in the most desirable form and in an femount larger than can be obtained from any other source of ammonia. In addition it furnishes over 2% of Phosphoric Acid, ainother most important and valuable element of plant food, which fact is not generally appreciated. The fact must not be lost sight of that in using Cotton Seed Meal you have a fertilizer which feeds the growing plant grad ually during its entire growth and leaves in the soil a most valuable humus with which to sustain succeeding crops. A demonstration recently conducted at the State College of Agriculture, extending over two years, proved that the best production per acre was made through the use of Cotton Seed Meal as a source of ammonia. When your fertilizer is based upon Cotton Seed Meal, it contains all that the other sources of ammonia have, and in addition, Potash, which the other sources have not.

J. A. LEVERETTE, Prop. Jackson, Georgia WRIIES OF HONEYMOON TRIP TO COUNiY OF HENRY My wife and I have been m ir ried ten years and we decided to go off on a honeymoon. We talk ed the matter over and we deci ded that our means were too limited to take a trip through Yellowstone Park or visit San Francisco and we just decided to visit her old home in the grand county of Henry. So on Friday morning we hitched up an old family horse and struck out. We carried along a lunch that consisted of light bread, chicken and cake. As we passed throngh Jackson we got some confection- eries. On our way we noticed the broad fields of grain sown. We stopped at Henlev’s Mill to listen to the screak of the old mill as in the days of long ago. Then vp the road about five miles we came in sight of the little rustic cottage that nestles in the bowers where I courted the little Scotch-Irish girl, whose ancestry might or might not be traced back to Robert Burns, the Scotts bard. The old home is still in the family but is rented out and through the courtesy of Mr. Dix on, the present occupant, we spread our lunch on the table and he accepted our invitation to dine with us. We went through ev ery room in the house and when we came to the dining room I stood and wished that gone by days might return that I might taste those fried peach puffs and coffee again. We then walked ffffff CABBAGE PLANTS We are filling order* for Early Jersey Wakefield, Charleston Wakefield, Flat Dutch and Succession. Prices—loo, 20 cents; 500, 75 cents; 1000, $1.25.

Riegel & Sons Experiment, Georgia out in the flower garden and paus ed at the hyacinth, then the ever bearing, rose, then the old lily that laughed in the sunlight of the days that are gone and drank the dewdrops of many a starry night; then took a stroll through j the old orchard and came to the I old apple tree where one morning |in May we stood in its shadows | where the bees and birds were [ humming and as the springtime breeze was fragrant and blowing freshly from the sea, I plucked a blossom from the old tree and presented it to her. We then lift ed our eyes to thedistant hills, to the north-east we could see Stone Mountain and a little to the west could be seen the foothills of the Blue Ridge. I then laid my hand on her brow and stole a soft kiss. We then went five miles away and spent the night with my mother-in-law and as we got there we found her in the old arm chair. I ben'over her and impressed a soft kiss and told her we had lived ion years of our life that day. On Sunday we returned home. Then these words came to us: “Blessed are the poor in spirit. ” , Plow Handles. WHY YOU ME NERVOUS I The nervous system is the alarm system of the human body. In perfect bealtn we hardly realize that we have a network of nerves, but when health is ebbing, when strength is declin ing, the same nervous system gives the alarm in headaches, tiredness, dreamful sleep, irritability and unless corrected, leads straight to a breakdown. To correct nervousness, Scott's Bmnl sion Is exactly what you should take; its rich nutriment gets into the blood and rich blood feeds the tiny nerve-cells while the whole system responds to its refresh ing tonic force. It is free from alcohol. Scott & Bowne, Bloomfield, N. J. EMERGENCY WORK In auto repairing requires thorough skill. Send your car here where skill is assured.
