Here's Coat-Suit Reductions With a Reason
)
■tfk.
To state that we will sell you a $25.00 Coat-Suit for $14.90 may sound absurd—ordinarily it would be absurd—but here is reason for such a reluction: Mr. Myrick
happened, while in New York, to run across this lot of Coats and Suits at a special sale, well, when Mr. Myrick is in the Eastern markets heis looking out for just such a
pick-up, and so he took advantage of the bargain with the object of giving the trading public of Baldwin county the advantage of his bargain. While we do not announce
this is “an unheard bargain landslide,” etc., all we want to say is that even if you have bought a suit already it will pay you to look these over with a view to laying one
aside for next fall—the styles will be perfectly good and you will wish you had bought this time when you see the prices you will have to pay next fall.
This is a tip on Coats and Suits that you may not fully appreciate, but if ou will allow us to show them to you you will realize that this i s a genuine opportunity that
is not merely a gaudy showing of expensive clothes, but a real opportunity for an investment that will save you good hard dollars on your outfit for the rest of this winter
and the coming winter. There is not a chance for clothing to come any cheaper and ten to one they will be much higher another year.

SOUTHERN CROP PRGDUSTION IN 1918.
Those into it ;ted In the agricultural
.progress of the Scutli and anxious that
| we shall not fail to do o r patriotic
j duty in food production are much con-
I cerned about the attitude the South-
| ern far.i err is going to take toward
coti n poducticur in IMS.
In 1 !M 7 the b; 11 weevil was mu;h
j less destructive In many sections than
j ever before since lie came in large
i numbers. The email crop of 1 !• 17, 11,-
000,000 bales or less, lias resulted in
'■ high prices, and where a fair crop was
5 made the prelim have been large. Hat
L- it must be rememebered that the uv
I erage yield per r- re in lit 17 was only
I about 133 pounds of lint cotton and
I for 1910 only about 130 pounds per
’ acre. The small crop of 1917, f r in-
1 stance, was not d e t a small acre-
I age, but to it small yield per acre.
On the other band, corn yields T.avt
been pood, taking the South as a
r whole, although the crop is short In
H the «dry sections of the West. Food
production, and, as a general rul ,
J feed production have been larger than
usual. It is also true that those why
have made more food and feed sup
plies (ban required for home use haw
been able to sol! the surplus at a good
price; but after all those facts are duty
recognized it remain 0 a fact that, for
tli? average Southe n farmer, cot'on
has proved the best money crop grown
and it is fair to ass. me that it wi',1
{continue to be the best money crop
of the South wheh good yields are
made in a properly balanced cropping
system.
I We can find no sound basis for an
P argument against the growing of cot-
f ten when it is produced on a sound
*1 economic basis or in a svstein of ag-
) riculture which pr vide* for f,nj and
•t feed production and the maintenance
i of soil feitility.
« Ml therfl facts and :i any others
p will-.h might bo mentioned unmistak-
j ably point to a desire on the part ol
| ’ the Southern farmer to increase his
,< ton a it- . in 1P18. Some feel
la.'or.,- anxious hbrut .what may happen
t-Jto Southern agricultuio next year. Wo
I » need a moderate cr p of cotton, but
I I'rod < c more cotton than is need-
• < - d and fall to produce even inor£-
largely than in 1917 of the food and
feed supplies demanded by the na-
H>n would be a calamity. Moreover,
would stamp OS as Mule short of
slackers to fail i produce our own
• ipplie.; in the face of tlie demand ol
the. nation ut*war for the largest pos
sible production of foodstuffs.
But if our appeal for the pr; duction
of food and feed crops next year is to
ho generally effective it must be based
a ound economics as well as on pa
triotism, for it Is not the interest ol
the nation as a whole that any largo
section conduct Its business at a 1 ss.
Cotton can only tie maintained at a
hi It price by a small crop, while food
:nd feedst ffs are absolutely certain
:o remain high-priced, regardless ol
the largest crops we can possibly pr -
in- o, because of the larger demands
■ nd larger wastage due to the war.
J'or instance, the nation has produced
he largest corn crop in her history in
917 and s’ill corn is well above a dol-
’ar a liuslic! and v ili probably remain
between $1.95 and $1.50 a bushel until
at least the ei;op of 1918 is available
for use.
Necessity for Belief.
A man lives by believing some
thing; not by debating arguing about
many tilings. A sad case for him
when all lie can manage to believe is
-something bo can button in his pock
et and with one of the other rgan
eat and digest. Lower than this ho
will not get.—Carlyle.
BETTER TJH-AN RICHES
The desire to accumulate something
for one's children is a commendable
one; but it la well to bear in mind that
tlte be.u tilings are to be, given to the:
children personally, in good examples,
kind words and thoughtful teachings.
A vety sensible writer recently said
about this important subject: “Chil
dren ur.ust be taught what the par
ents wish them to know. Teach them
truthful, gentle ways and they will be
true and gentle. If a boy learns bad
language fr m liis father, he wiil re
peat it just as certainly as be has a
tongue hi Irs mouth, and if a little
girl hears her mother gossip she will
go. ip just «ts soon its she meets a
play mate. People who devour the'*
l'oo-J like cattle must not expect their
children to have good Table manners.
Gentleman and go al women are he t
made. There Is nothing on ear b
.(or which one ought to be more thank
ful than for hav^ig been brought up
in the atmosphere of a pure ho/ne.
Mich a home may bo narrow and e-cn
hill'd, it may be deficient in material
comforl8. A man. sturdy as an i-k
once said, “I was the son of poor par
ents and from my youth up was in-
nured to self denial and hardship, but
I ib- not remember*of even t hearing a
word from the ips of either my moth
er :r or my father that was not as it
should be. Better such recolb < ion
• ban a great inheritance.
