BOYS AND GIRLS - THE BEST CROP ? V- 'V '> N i The best crop to raise is boys and girls. The acreage should be large and the cultivation exceed ingly intensive. iTo this crop wo owe more than to all others. To properly educate and care for the boys and girls, we should bend all our energies. Have we done our duty in the past? Have we not given to others in some cases what justly belongs to oar own bloodP Can we not make a good saving and an effective start by co-operating amcng ourselves in the sale of tobacco this fall? On every load ol tobacco sold at the FARMERS UNION mfctual warehouse-Harts House-this fall we can save money, money that heretofore has been given not to producers of wealth but to consumers of profits that properly belong in our pockets. Would you rather sell at your OWN WAREHOUSE and save money in charges, or would you rather sell at other houses and give unnecessary charges to those who wish to prosper through driving a bargain with you? Answer this question this fall and remember that the patrons of our warehouse, whether members of the Union or not; get their share of the net profits. The farmers Union Warehouse g, N.

The fanmers' co-operative De onstration work, conducted jointly by the U. S. and the State departments or Agriculture and the A. & M. Col lege, is now starting plans for winter cover crops in this State. Efforts put forth in this matter the past season resulting in the adding directly of 42,800 . acres of such crops. ^ The management will mak? a I strenuous effort to double the average agents are already at work pn the matter. Every farmer, merchant, hanker, and all who are Interested in promoting better farming are asked to join in the movement. The crops advocate for this State are Rye, for very poor soils; crimson, bur and red clover; vetch, with a support erop; and grasses of various mixtures. Last year a hundred acres of grasses, scattered well over the state, pro duce an average of 5,600 p.unds of cured hay per acre, at a net profit of $31.00 per acre. This shows that we have splendid conditions for growing all the hay and grazing crops needed In the State and some to sell. The legumes mentioned are usually more profitable than grasses because they gather?free gen from the air and store ft-I soil. Farmers can get it this way much cheaper than by purchasing It. These .winter growing crops are valuable.' For forage or turning' under to increase soil fertility, they are easily worth ten dollars per acre and o ft?1* several times thl# amount. Often thecrop that follows them Is doubled In yield. ?nd leaching and add organic matter, something that practically all soils ars deficient In. Every acre of cultivated land should grow at least two crops per acre, one In the winter and one in the summer. One may be a food :rop or a money crop and the other i soli Improvement crop. Lands that bare during the winter months of ten lose more plant food through teaching and washing (^n Is used by the crop that grows ^nre during the Rummer. It behoves every farmer to give this matter his attention. The Important thing to do right now Is to decide whch crop or crops he Null grow, procure S?od seed, and tbenibreak bis land at once t? s depth of from eight to twelve Inches. Profitable crops are r*rei7 grown on shallow plowed soils. Harrow the land the saae d?7 It la farok?i to present loss of mdsture, and to have it ready to plant when the time arrives. There Is no reason why every far mer in the State should not plant some clover on his farm late in Aug gust or from then till the middle of October. Those who are not acquain ted with clover growing should not plant more than an acre or two the first season. Information concerning the matter may be had by requesting it of our State and National Depart ments of Agriculture, our A. & M. College, or Mr. C. *R. Hudson, Raleigh, N. C., who Inaugurated and is pushing the matter.' Where there are Demon strations Agents, farmers enjoy ?the advantage of ^a personal interview by calling on them. How I'ncle Sam Spends Your Income Tax Dollar The American Magazine sent Ray Standard-Baker to Washington to trace penny for penny exactly how Uncle Sam spends It, The result of his investigation appears in the Au gust .j-gjjpiber. Under the direct of taxation, by which we stiH continue to raise most of our reve nues, for people felt any ccncern as to what the government spent, but with a direct tax like the income tax several hundred thousand Ameri cans will feci thls/^ear, for the first time, just what K means to help buy warships and pay for unnecessary poBtofflce. Following is part"of Mr. Bakers report: "The very first thing that struck me, and struck hard was the tact that, althought we have had no great war In fifty years (and only a little one sixteen years ago), over sixty cents -of every dollar that Uncle Sam collects from you and me (directiv or indirectly) goes for military pur poses,' including containing expenBeS*, of past wars?pensions. "I think that few people realize what this means?in a nation which considers itself peculiarly devoted to peace. . r "Sixty-three per cent to the army, navy and pensions, and only thirty seven per cent to pay all the other vast and useful purposes of the gov ernment, excluding postal service and the preposterous sinking fund?re quired by law, but never provided in fact. This thirty-seven per cent is ) available for building the Panama canal, Improving our rivers and har bors, supporting the Indians, encour aging agriculture, public health and education, to say nothing of taking care of tire entir? machinery of civil government? congress, executive, courts, and the diplomatic and consu lar service. : the expenditure of the governiaent for all purposes (with the exceptions above stated), reaches the vaat sum of ?740.000.000. Of this 14??,000 000 go for war purposes and forty five per cent of this goes for pen sions, retirements, and interest on war dgbts." WET MAJOBITY GROWS. r.
