That alfalfa will do well in Sumter is proven by the success attending the efforts of Mr. R. W. Buchanan, upon his dairy farm near Americus, and Mr. Hogshead, residing near Plains. Each has a fine field of alfalfa, planted in the late fall and now growing off well. Alfalfa is one of the best crops that can be planted for cutting and grazing. It is said that four or five cuttings of hay in a sea son is about the average, and each crop is a most valuable one. Mr. Buchanan, who conducts a large and model dairy farm, is especially pleased with the re sults attained in the planting of his first crop of alfalfa. A very fine stand on two acres is report ed. Mr. J. C. Carter, who gives considerable attention to raising fine livestock, is succeeding well with burr clover and vetch. On his model farm hear Americus he has four or five acres in burr clover that is growing luxuriant ly and gives promise of several cuttings next summer. It is said that Mr. Carter and other Sum ter farmers have, collectively, about sixty acres planted in burr clover.--Americus Times-Recor der. L . W.

We have had no kicks register ed up to the present moment, and do not believe you will have occasion to register the first one. Mt. Vernon Drug Cmpany. To Monitor Subscribers: Eleven years ago The Montgomery Monitor was re-established and put on a business basis, and since that time it has been recog nized as one of the best weekly publications in Georgia. To put the business in its present excellent condition, it has meant the outlay of both money and hard and trying labor—plenty of it--and the merit of the paper is fully recognized by the public. But in supposing that the paper should be printed and sent out FREE, many of our patrons are in error—in fact, hundreds of them refuse to pay the debts they contract with the paper, and, as a common result, we have, during the past few years, thrown away several thousand dollars in a vain effort to please an ungrateful and eVer-grasping element. This plan is very unsatisfactory. Therefore, in order to put a check on the constant drain on our pocket-book, and withdraw the unwarranted and unappreciated outlay on our part, we have decided to put the subscription on a CASH BASIS, TO ALL alike. This rule effective Jan. 1, 1914. In order to save annoyance, make settlement before January Ist. Before this date our books will be revised, and all names in arrears will be dropped from the roll, and no new names placed on the books except upon payment in advance, whether it be 25 cents, 50 cents or SI.OO. Under this plan those who are benefited by our money and labor will be contributing toward the support of the paper, from which they will receive full value. If you owe the paper, send in the money at once. If you want it sent to you regularly—and every family in the county should have it—send in the price AT ONCE. v It shall no longer be sent out onjthe credit or graft plan. To those of our patrons who ap preciate and pay for our efforts, we offer our thanks; to those who are indebted to us, we respectfully ask a settlement—AT ONCE. Trusting that all will understand the above rule, and lend their co-operation toward the further upbuilding of the paper, we are Very truly, The Montgomery Monitor, Dec. 15, 1913. Mt.
