At this season cf i he year '.successful men look back over their year’s affairs. They count what they have done, what it costs, what they have on hand, and what they have profited. You might as well join the movement. What use have you made of your money? How much of it have you saved against future needs? Keep Well Avoid Sickness TAKE How much of it ave you let get away that brought you less than the monev was worth? How much of it would buy you something more useful by and by if you had hung on to it? Think these things over and write off your balance for the new year. Plan the coming season with a bigger notion for getting from your money ':he most that it can bring you, and while it is not needed for immediate uses put it safely where you can have it when the time comes that you can make prohlazle investment or purchase with it.

During the past, week C. A. Whittle, on behalf of the Asosclatlon of SoUithern Agricultural 'Workers, has beeit in Raleigh securing data and results on the work of the year from the workers In the Divisions of Entomology and Agronomy of the State College and Department of Ag- ricultue. Similar data Is to be se cured from other southern states with the object of issuing a general statement of findings and re^mmen- dations when the association meets in January at Birmingham, Ala. During the autumn, farmers were encouraged by college workers to make an effort to pick the cotton proDjptly, and to k411 the stalks be- froe frost, as this Is known to lessen the multiplication of the woevH In the late fall. The presence of the cotton leal-worm in many fields has helped in the work by destroying thei lata-seaaon flood of the weevils; These thirds would tend to reduce the number of weevils to survive the w'lnter; but, on the other hand, the mildness of the winter thus far is In the' weevil's favor. For the remainder ot the winter some go'od may be accomplished 'by a general cleaa-iip along hedge-rows, rockHpiles, ditch-banks or terracse, which are near to the 1923 cotton fields. This may help the appear ance of the farm also. Farmers are advised to look forward studiously to F.O.B. .DETIIOIT A Striking Value at ^295 Considering the improved appearance of the new Ford Touring Car, one would naturally expect a proportionate advance in price. creasing its coat to the purchaser.
