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. FRED L. NICHOLS GARAGE 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.

Composition written by Rufus Strickland age 13. 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. OLD SUWANEE. Buford, Ga. R. 1. Feb. 26,—Rev. G. T. Hunt and family were the Saturday dinner guest of Mrs. C'aud Hays and family.

PEDIGREED 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. FOR FUTHER PARTICULARS WRITE OR SEE W. L.
