Buying Shoes Is Like Buying
Anything Else That Wears Out
The shrewd buyer considers the cost of “UpKeep” more
than the original cost.
The other considers first cost only.
Some people pay $3 for shoes and three more for “Up-
Keep.”
Some pay $5 for a better looKing, longer wearing shoe
and practically nothing for “UpKeep.”
The $5 shoe wears longest and looKs best while wearing.
It's the cheapest in the end, anyway you want to figure.
The less a person can afford to part with money the
more he needs to spend it wisely.
You can dam up a stream with paper but you
will have a hard time Keeping the water bacK.

which is the mission of these workers,
is illuminatingly touched upon in a
recent letter from Miss Howery, a
daugghter of Justice Howery and a
concert singer of growing reputation
who was heard in Atlanta in recital
shortly before she went to France
with the Y. M. C. A. to sing for the
soldiers.
This letter was written in Paris,
while Mis s Howry was there for a
brief rest on July 17, between tours
through the camps.

during which we had four air raids,
one of them the worst in the history
of the city. Of course I had to be out
that night to see it and it was the
greatest sport. But when a bomb fell
half a block away I decided it was
foolish to deprive the Y. M. C. A. of
my services in so sudden a manner,
and so I stood in th entrance of an
abri thereafter.
“After a week here and the place
is so changed you would not know it
—I went out toward the front.
“There you have your heart wrung
many times, but you live through hu
man experiences that enrich one’s life
beyond the counting.
“Up and down the road I went, in
a Ford truck usually, from one isolat
ed camp to another. Each group of
boys seem the sweetest. They are so
appreciative and give so much. And
they think more of mothers and sweet
hearts than ever before in their lives.
Always after singing I go among the
men and speak to as many as possible
before I leave my base camp. There
ore boyg waving and smiling at me up
and down the roads. Many a little
heart story have I heard over here,
and I want to tell the girls back home
that distance certainly makes the
hearts of these boy s grow fonder.
Strange Surroundings
“I sing under very strange sur
roundings often —sometimes on a ta- 1
ble set beside of the main road
through the village where the men
are stationed; sometimes in the lum
ber camp s in a setting of green trees
and warm summsr sun, with the men
sitting in a big semi-circle on the
ground and my accompaniment from
a portable organ. Once I sang a few
hundred feet from the spot in the
Marne valley where Joffre uttered his
memorable words, ‘They shall not
pass’—and where the German tide
was turned. But a receding tide
leaves its grim work, and as we trav
eled through the Marne valley we saw
graves by the hundreds; the French
marked by Flags; the Germans by
plain crosses.
“But for me France will forever be
haunted by our boys in khaki. I shall
never make a turning into a village

WINTER COVER CROPS
SWELL FIIOjT RETURNS
Prevent Washing Of Land And
Decrease Fertilizer Bill
One of the most important prac
tices in orchard management is the
growing of a cover crop under the
trees during the winter. This cover
crop helps to cut down the nitrogen bill
|f winter growing legumes are used;
adds organic matter to the soil; and
prevents washing in our hilly sections,
pays the Horticultural Division of thfi
Georgia State College.
If we can do so, it will be well to
Jiave hairy vetch as part of this cover
crop. To go along with the vetch we
phould have either oata, rye or wheat.
It takes about a bushel of grain seed
and twenty pounds of hairy vetch to
sow an acre. Where used, the hairy
jvetch seed should be inoculated be
fore planting.
In north Georgia the oover crop
phould be sown about the last of Sep
tember to the first of October. In cen
tral Georgia it should be sown by the
fifteenth of October. In south Geor
gia it may be sown as late as the
last of October or first of November.
orchards are on rolling land,
j* is well to sow this cover crop with
pn open-farrow drill. The open fur
rows not only protect the grain, but
Kre a great help in keeping the land
from washing until the young grain
pan become well established. The
jvalue of a cover crop in an orchard
cannot be estimated, as we have no
way of knowing the monetary value
bf organic matter in the land. We
know, however, it greatly Improves
fhe soil and will help us to make a
crop of good fruit the following sea
son.
If the above mentioned seed cannot
be obtained for sowing ths cover
prop, it would be a good plan to sow
pomething under the trees, —turnips,
rape, or anything that will grow
through the winter, so that when
plowing time comes in the spring,
(there will be something to turn

Read this letter from Mr. Robt.

“In 1900 I was out in Kansas
“ threshing engine and
the threshing crew had to sleep
out of doors. One of the crew
brought a Poruna Almanac to
the engine one day and I was
feeling very ill from sleeping
out. I decided to give Pemna a
trial and sent for a bottle of Pe
runa and a box of Peruna Tab
lets, which straightened me out
in a hurry.
“I have never ■ been down sick
nlnce that time. I do not take
any other medicines except Pe
runa. I always keep It on hand.
