Hursey Says no Apology Necessary,
Wants Farmer Folks to Use Lfme.
Now that the gouth-Eastern Fair is
over there isno appologizes to be made
We did our best and put on a credita
hle booth for Charlton county, The
names of the ones helping us with the
booth have been menioned in the pa
pers but nothing has been said of those
who helped us by lending theiy pro
ducts. This group of helpers were ma
ny and I believe that they all helped
willingly and there are olbers that
would willingly aided us to a higher
rating, if they had only known what to
bring. Al classes of helpers will
know more about what it takes to pu:
over a first prize booth next year.
Lets all smile and look info another

I shall be too busy this week making
my Annual Report and in taking
Thanksgiving day, to be of any assis
tance to any one during the next few
days. We are requested to secinde
ourselves and get out a report on cv,
ery day's work for the past twelve
months, so you can see that I will be
very busy indeed.
I have just had some real good price
on Agricnltora lime and from what |
haye seen of ite results in this county,
I am convinced that it will pay far bet
ter than its worth in any other kind of
fertiizers. We can get it delivered to
Folkston in bulk car loads at $3.70 per
ton, or in burlap bags at $4.95. These
prices are in the reach of every one
that farms and it certainly will pay
yon to lime your land at the rate of one
and one half to two jons per acre. You
will not have to repeat tne iiming acain ’
fur several years. Get busy now and

sourness out of our lands. All crops
will do much better and the legume

Time To Prune Grape Vines
At the time of the first frost, scup
pernongs and other varieties of the
muscadine grape should be pruned,
according to advice o the Georgia
Experiment station.
Director H. P. Stuckey, of the sta
tion, says that if the vines are pruned
earlier there is likely to be damage
from sunscaid and ir prunin, is delay
ed to mid-winter or later the vines wili
be injured by excessive bieeeing from
the wounds as soon as the westher
turns warm.
“For a long time,"" Director Stuckey
said, “it' was thought that his class
of grayes could not be successfully
pruned. In consequence, the system
of raining the vines on overhead
frowes grew. Old vines thus trained
shouly uot be severely pruned but
their growth can be thinred out, care

Stropping a razor blade can’t
be foolish —surely a super
keen blade must be preferable
YOU must know that after the first
shave the cutting edge of the finest
blade that can be made is a row of tiny
jagged hooks —until it is stropped. Strop
ping smooths out and re-aligns these
minute points. That's why barbcrs every
where always strop before each shave,
They've done it for 2,000 year..
And that's why shavers everywhere
are eagerly adopting the famous new
Valet Auto Strop Razor, Its automatic
self-stropping device guarantees a per
fect blade for each morning's shave. No
trouble. A flip of the thumb—a few swift
strokes — and the edge is as keen as can
be. No need to remove blade to strop or
clean it,
