"You ought to have one of
these machines out at your house,"
the dealer said.
"No, I guess we don t need
that," the farmer said.
"Why, who does your washing?"
"My wife does it, of course."
"For you and . the four boys
and the hired man?"
"Yes, she does it."
"Why don't you buy one of
these and lighten her work a,
little?"
"She doesn't need a newfangled
contraction like that; she
out well enough as it is."
"Say Jim, how many motor cars
have you got out there on your
farm?"
"Well," Jim said, as be scratch
ed his head, "we've got the flivver
and the big car and the motor
truek."
"Yes, you'll spend a thousand
dollars for a car to get yourself
around in and your wife to
wear her fingers to the bone on a
washboard."
"But I need those cars in my
farming operations," the farmer
insisted. '
Jim Haw The Light.
"If you need machines in your
farmiug operations your 1 wife
needs machines in her household
operations; it's all on the farm,
isnVit? Isn't the wo»k in your

patent forks to lift your hay, an«l
manure spreaders to save you

devices". Yon call a washing
machine a newfangled contrap

wife to break her back over a
washboard that is as old as the
hill*. Why don't you plow with a
forked stidk? Why don't you
haul your stuff to town in a two
wheeled cart with oxen? Now
look here you might just as well
use those old-fashioned devices as
to auk your wife to be manicuring
her fingers on a washboard while
you are riding a sulky plow."
"I never thought of it in that
way before," said Jim.
course you didn't. When
shall I send out the washer?
Cash or on time?"
"Send her riglit off the reel and
here's the money to pay for it."
I don't believe I could preach a
better sermon than to say to every

How many people really study
farm machinery before they buy

» How Many Acres to Oats and Rye?
; The Progressive Farmer.
It 4s time to decide how many
acres to plant to oats and rye this
fall. It is time to select the land
and begin pnttiug it in .shape for
planting. It is time to order the
seed. t We can't boast of a self
sustaining system of farming as
long as the South fails to raise as
much corn, oats or hay as it uses
and. sends its money to othejr sec
tions to buy those things in great
quantities. A good crop of oats
and rye on your farm this fall will
help cut down purchases of all
. these products.
OATS. —This crop can be sowed
from September Ito Nov. 15. In
the latitude of south Georgia,
early October seedings have given
the best yields. Fulghum oats or
Bed Kust-proof, with kindrod va
rieties as Appier, have- proved
very satisfactory. Plow or disk
i the laud four to six Inches deep,
pulverize it with a harrow, if
' necessary use dr.ig or roller. Treat
seed data vfith formal I u to prevent
suiut, and plant frdfn two to three
1 bushels to the acre. Plant the
; seed iu open furrows or trencher
' to prevent winter killing.
I Plant oats on good la* El. They
~ do well after an early crop of corn
and cowpeas, or following pea
nuts. Froip 200 lo 300 pounds of
acid phosphate to the aero will
increase the yields and pay a
profit. When vwteh is combined
with oats at the rate of two bush
pis of oats aud a half a bushel of
vetch they furnish winter grazing,
can be cut for hay in the spring
and improve the land.
BYE. —Bye alone or rye with
crimson clover goes a loug way
toward making a winter pasture.
Sow early, in September if pos
sible, to geit a good growth before
cold weather. Broadcast rye or
drill it iu the cotton fields after
the fiißt picking, or plant on fields
prepared as for oaUt. From one
and a half lo two bushels per acre
should be sowed when it is grown
for grazing. Abrnzzi has proved
one of the best varieties for this
purpose.
Because rye will grow on poor
land, do not impose ou it. It re
sponds well to fertilizer and the
better the land the biitger the crop.
After helping feed the stock dur
ing the wiuter, rye can be turned
under in the spring to feed the soil.
Those luminous wrist'watches
are no good at all to two classes of
focletj—-burglars and lovers.

fashioned grocer who sent candy
for the children, when father paid

PUTS MOUNTAIN UON FIRST
Colorado Physician Declares Its
Flesh la the "Finest Eating In
' the Whole World."
There's another reason for
a mountain lion.
According to Dr. Walter H. Bai
ley of Denver, "the finest eating in
the wbble world."
A mountain lion steak, Dr. Bai
ley believes, is a piece de resistance
for the dinner either of a king or
a democrat.
An suthority on the subject, one.
who had tasted every kind of game,
fish and fowl in the known world,
wrote an article in the American
Field two years ago in which he
placed mountain .lion in a class by
itself.
The author, according to Dr. Bai
ley, gave second place to beaver's
tail. Bobcat and muskrat are also
highly recommended.
"I have eaten the muskrat and
found it just as described," writes
the physician, "a very fine dish.
Perhaps you will understand better
if I tell you that I would be glad
to trade any variety of fish, grouse,
cottontail or any variety of fish I
may be fortunate enough to acquire.
for a muskrat."
THE EASY WAY
"You recommended that maa
very highly."
"Yes."
"But he proved to be utterly use*

| the casing being of gold and the
motor of steel. The motor, which
j has six slots, has a diameter of only
| 0.032 inch; the shaft, 0.007 inch,
r Mounted on a hollow pedestal the
turbine is driven at a high rate of
speed by a jet of compressed air en
tering at the bottom. This seems
to be the tiniest of all motors, be

The real difference between an old

The blood is perhaps the most im

The sick and ailing*ana pale are

and full of vitality always has red
cheeks, a good complexion and a body
that is supple, active and tingling
