—and just as powerful—believe me. It certainly sounds good
again. But say—isn’t it strange tha only a little set of piston
rings would make all that difference? Well, Im, ready for
spring sunshine and the open road—lo,ooo miles of it.
That is the way automobile owners feel when they har the
sound of their overhauled motors. And overhaulding is neces
sary in the best engine ever built.
Soon now you will want your car for a full season of driving.
Why abuse that engine that has been so faithful? Bring it to
our garage for overhauling and removal of carbon. A small
investment in overhauling now may save you a much greater
expense later in the season—or may be a serious accident.
Have recently installed a reboring and horning machine
for cylinder blocks. Come and have your cylinders re-boared
and new pistons and rings put in your car. This job is guarante
ed as good as new.

Phone 10 Lawrenceville
The month of March has been set
apart for a special campaign by the
churches of Lawrenceville for church
attendance. Sunday is the opening
day. The winter is breaking and
now is a good time for greatly in
creased attendance upon all the
services of the church. It is expect
ed that all the churches of the town
will experience a revival of church
attendance by this united effort.
Nothing helps a town more than
her churches. Nothing yields richer
dividends than the things spiritual.
Regular attendance upon religious
services always deepens the spiritual
tone of the work of the church. Let
everyone get into this movement and
help to make Lawrenceville the best
church-going town in north Georgia.
Sunday go to the church of your
choice, to Sunday school, to the
morning and evening services—to
the young people’s meetings yes,
go to the church of your choice—
BUT GO TO CHURCH.

A STORY OF jCORN RAISING
One day I was reading about corn
raisitig in a bulletin issued by the
Department of Agriculture * and I
thought I might make a good deal of
money by raising corn.
I had to clear the land for my corn
this I did from January until March
•■’hen I was not in school. I cleared
about two acres, it was hard work
but I think I got repaid for it.
I broke the land in March with a
two horse plow, then I ran a harrow
over it, and laid it off with a two
horse plow. I put about two hundred
#
pounds of guano to the acre.
I dropped the corn by hand and
covered it with a harrow. When the
corn came up I plowed it, replanted
the missing hills and hoed it. The
dry weather in June damaged it
very much, but when it rained it
got over that alright.
In July I laid it by and sowed
peas in the middles, When the corn
was ready to can I began canning it.
I also sold some and got a good
price for it. I gathered the re
mainder which got hard which was
twenty five bushels. I sold this at
one dollar per bushel. When I
got the peas picked I had fifteen bu.
which I sold for one dollar and iffty
cent per bushel This year I am
planning to plant still more com
and peas than I did last year. I also
want to plant some other things.

SALSBURY
Cotton Planting
Seed
For Heavy Production and Early Maturity
A NEW VARIETY
SALSBURY IS DISTINCT 5
SALSBURY is a distinct variety—the result of eight year’s plant breeding
by Professor J. W. Fox and Mr. E. C. Ewing, the experts of the Delta and Pine
Land Co. at Scott Miss. Commencing with an extra-early heavy-fruiting
strain of Wannamaker-Cleveland, these men have worked untiringly year
after year selecting and cross-breading, keeping the best and eliminating the
underesiral|le, until they produced SALSBURY, which we believe to be a per
feet cotton. It has all the disirable qualities of an early big-boll short cotton:
still, is worth a good premium in any market.
