One fiirtl for every shot will in the entl make h winning record. And, it la seldom wo uuve an op|»or- Rtiity to kill TWO bird* with otic stone. Hut we have It now, and it re mains to be seen how many of us will take advantage of the opportunity. A few acres planted In peas will make enough hay to run a farm nycar. fills Is not hear say, for we know it from experience. And it will be good hay—the best the market affords—hay that will, nlmost keep stock without •corn when they arc not at work. A few acres, properly prepared, properly 'fertilized ami properly planted, will enable you to feed your stock home grown forage next year and laugh at your neighbor when he strains his pocket book and his credit to buy Western grass. When you have done 'tills you hove killed one blfd. Hut at the same lime you have killed ‘another. You have left upon your land a shower of fertilizer worth more than twenty-five bushels of cotton seed to The acie. Try it when you will. 'On the same kind of land broadcast ‘an acre In jwus and remove the \ isos /or hay, broadcast an adjoining acre with 26 bushels of cotton need and plant both In any crop you w ill. If you have not Irlod It, the result will nstonish you, when you sec the better •crop growing where the. pens were 'planted. m A shower of 26 bushels of cotton seed lo the acre Is offered you, and you will then have bird number two. Year In and out you buy nitrogen from the fertilizer compauies, but the cow pen offers it to you without money nmi without price. And, peas are cheap. DOWN IN EMANUEL. It is a good idea once and a while to look around and see what your neigh bor Is doing. You may learn a thing or two. A farmer who often comes to Thom- hrn* l>eeii down in Emanuel county and while there he looked around. What do you think he saw? I'lc saw fanners hauling hay—.but it w as TO town to Ik: shipped and not FROM town. This opened his eyes and caus ed him to sot up and take notice. He found that the farmers dow n there not only do not have grass shipped Into the county, but they ship it out in large quantities. Hchbw something else—a ls>y going lo mill with live large sacks tilled with home grown w heat. This caused him not equal that sold In Thomson on .the i first day of March. When he asktd If the corn crop don’t fail some time, the answer was “Yes mister, but the cot ton crop dees too, and we keep on planting both.” Another thing he found was Hint the farm lands of the county Mre getting more valuable each day, the people mo re prosperous, and that many of them have never heard of the great panic of 1907.

NXKOGUEtSSlVE IHJSIN KtfS MEN know that every day <>|>- portunitiws arise for safe and profitable investment, and re. tilizo the gretit importance of ready money in taking advantage of them. They also realize the advantage ot having t heir ac count in a strictly up-to-date bunk whose management keeps in constant touch with the pulse of trade and finance. But there are people in every community whose savings lie idle b'causo they have not the time or experience to hunt up invest ments. This bank solicits the accounts of both of these classes, assur ing them courteous treatment and every accommodation within the power of modern banking. School Closes. GUARDIAN’S SALE.
