MRS. PYRON MAKES WORTHY SUGGESTIONS. To The Bartow Tribune: The paramount issue before the peo ple of the south today is raising and conserving food stuffs. The whole nation has become arous ed, and the southern people especially are facing a serious problem. In Georgia and in Bartow county this Question is of vital importanceto our men and women, and without ex ception we are awake to the great seed of planting every available foot of ground in something to eat, not alone to feed our own population but to have a surplus so we can serve our country by being able to furnish feed tuffs to those in other sections who are less able than we are to produce. Therefore we cannot become too Every Little Saved Helps l\/l Can a P^ eCe I I I every dollar you make by buying your Groceries and Feed Stuff from the Bartow Gro cery Company.

J much aroused to the necessity of rais ! ing vegetables and all classes of food j stuffs during the spring and summer I months, and every one who can should ! procure a garden spot or a vacant plot j of ground and make it produce to the ! limit of its capacity. There are many people who have land that they will not be able to cul tivate and it is their duty to encourage those who have no land to cultivate at least a small part of it. Let our slogan be "no spjt of ground uncultivated.” Cur county commissioners and city of ficers are agitating to the full limit of their capacity the “Raise all you can” of food stuffs, and yet there are many people w’ho are unable to pro cure the necessary seed. It would be well for our officers to purchase seed in large quantities and farm them out. Then there are many more people in the city and county who are not sufficiently aquainted with the process, to know how to can their vegetables it home, and there are few summer and fall maturing vegetables that the surplus raised cannot be canned, there fore a large per cent of the vegetables will go to waste unless some plan is made whereby this work of canning and preserving can be done at public canneries. It would be a real benefit to onr town and county tor our municipal authorities to put up a large public cannery and purchase many thousand cans and furnish both cans and work of canning to our citizens at actual cost. It Is none too early to agitate the establishment of such a plant. The officers of our county, our Chamber of Commerce and woman’s organizations could do no better than to put such a j movement on foot at once. There would be no risk in investing money in a public cannery. Too long w'e have bought our Tan ned goods from other sections, and now that we will be unable to do this it would be well for us to plan to care for the produce of our own county, making It possible to feed our own population and feed (hem well, besides having a large surplus to supply a hungry world.

COX, County Agent SPECIAL LETTER TO CORN CLUB MEMBERS. Dear Club Members: In face of the war situation, the shortage ot food and the high price of food products, we hope each club mem ber will deem it his patriotic duty to try to grow the very largest amount of corn on his acre that is possible and economical this year. You can also dn a great deal of good by encouraging your boy friend to do the same or join the pig club or the calf club. Fertilizing. In order to grow the largest amount of corn per acre possible under your conditions you should know the kind of soil to select, study the best meth ods of preparation. A circular dealing with these things has already been sent you. Knowledge of fertilizers, seed and the best methods of plant ing is also invaluable. These will be discussed briefly. Corn must make a rapid develop ment of stalk, leaf and ear. For this purpose there must be present in the ■soil, or fertilizer, v. large amount of plant food. The rapid growth calls for large amounts of nitrogen which should be stored in the soil by legu minous crops like the cowpea and vel vet bean. If either of the crops w'ere grown last year on your acre your bill can be greatly reduced. If they were not grown, farm manure should be used if they can be had. Apply the manure broadcast and work well into the soil before or at planting time. Since farm manures are not as plen tiful a might be, most club members ACIDS IN STOMACH SOUR THE FOOD AND CAUSE INDIGESTION • Pape s Diapepsin” Fixes Sour, Gassy, Upset Stomachs in Five M inutes. You don’t know what upset your stomach —which portion of the food did tihe damage—do yen? Well, don't bother. If your stomach is in a revolt; it sick, gassy and upset, and what you just ate has fermented and turned sour; head dizzy and aches; belch gases and acids and eructate undigest ed food; breath foul, tongue coa ed just take a little Pape’s Diapepsin to neutralize acidity and in five minutes you wonder what became of the in ii gestion and distress. Millions of men and women today know that it is needless to have dys pepsia. A little Diapepsin occasionally keeps the stomach sweetened, and they eat their favorite foods without fear. If your stomach doesn't take care of your liberal limit without rebellion; if your food is a damage instead of a help, remember the quickest, surest, most harmless antacid is Pape’s Dia pepsin, which cost only fifty cents for a large case at drug stores. It’s truly wonderful —it stops food souring and sets things straight, so gently and easily that it is really astonishing. Your stomach will digest your meals if you keep acids neutralized. —(advt.)

SHAW & SONS CO* April the 19th 19 17 will use commercial fertilizers. These also should be applied to the soil at or before planting on most North Geor gia soils. For South Georgia soils or any sandy soil a second application will no doubt pay. On such soil apply about half the amount used at planting and the remainder when the corn is knee high. If more than 500 pounds per acre is used it will probably pay on all soils to make the second appli cation. Potash is high and does not usually pay on corn. Nitrogen and phosphates are necessary and will pay. Have your commercial fertilizers carry these essential plant foods. Seed. Nothing is more important, than planting the best seed that can be had. Home grown seed that was se lected in The field from high yielding stalks is the right kind to plant. If you have seed of this kind plant it. 17 not get the best you can find. The prolific varieties are giving the high est yields in this state, though splen did yield can be made with the large eared varieties. Planting. Plant to insure a good stand. Re plants never do well. Planting in the water furrow gives -best results in some sections, while planting on the level gives best results in others. Ob serve the method that does best in your section and be governed accord ingly. You will receive a bulletin soon un “Making the Corn Crop.” Read it carefully.
