Some of : the beans are best for seed, others I are best for hay and the wise farmer ' will plant the kind that fulfills the I need on his place. ! In the opinion of C. B. Williams, j head of the department of agronomy | at State College, four to six varieties : shoyld fill all requirements in any | one locality. Very few soybeans are j now produced for oil. Their main use I is for seed, for hay and for soil im | provement purposes. Soybean hay is , one of the finest legume hays that j can be produced in the State and i ranks about equal with alfalfa as a | feed for dairy cows. The man who ! wants to produce such hay will not ! wish to plant a variety that produces ; much seed and but a small quantity | of coarse hay. Some of these things j must be considered in planting the i soybean crop this spring, states Mr. I Williams. In the Piedmont section, the Lar edo, Herman and Virginia are good beans for seed; the Laredo, Virginia and Herman for hay; the Herman, Mammoth Yellow and Tokyo for grazing hogs and the Laredo, Herman and Virginia for planting in corn and for soil improvement. FARMERS MEET FEB. 15. There will be a meeting of the Farmers at the Farmers Federation building at Spindale on Wednesday, February 15 at 2 o'clock.

Harrill, * * Henrietta. * =s =? » » * * * « * Dear neighbor friend, kind and true I wish I could be as good as you. I would like to return every deed so kind, And do it with a heart sublime. I would like to live the life you live, And be willing to give the gifts you give, Loving your neighbor like a brother Without greed or malice toward an other. I would like to wear your friendly smile, And think of others for just awhile, Then I could be a friend you would like to meet, And this life would be happy and sweet. i If I could be the neighbor I would like to be, I think no other could be as happy as me, Then I would return all of the nice things to you, If I could be a friend, like you good and true. I would like to be the friend that could meet you half way, And always greet you with a friendly "good day," Then I would be happy forever and ever, And keep being neighborly and try ing to be clever.

FILTHY TEXT BOOKS A recent letter described as "scan dalous" the text books being used in the State supported girls college in Florida. We secured a copy of the pamph let exposing the literature being taught those in college and found the situation far worse than we had anticipated. L. A. Tatum and A. Pickard, two public spirited citizens of Tallahas see, Florida, have rendered a service not only to their State but to the people of the country in compiling in pamphlet form, extracts from the text books on Psychoanalysis as taught to the girls of Florida. From the standpoint of vulgarity, evil-mindedness or filthiness, we have never seen the equal of the extracts quoted. A number oi times in our life we have left Pullman smokers in order to avoid listening to dirty stories, but Pullman smokers are innocent Sun day school stories when compared to the vile, filthy statements quoted in the pamphlet. We have never seen anything like them anywhere. Among the vilest of the books be- ing studied by Florida was a trans- • lation by Harry W. Chase, president of the University of North Carolina, j while the author of another was named as F. H. Allpoi't, assistant professor of psychology at the Uni- ( versity of North Carolina. We are tempted to quote a few' extracts from the books of Dr. :Chase and Prof. Allport to show what they contain, but the matter j is so obscene and so intensely vulgar j that we prefer not to inflict it upon j our readers, in fact, it might pre- i vent this issue passing through the • mails.—Textile Bulletin. L. M. Green, a poultryman of Cald-! well county, recently had his flock j of 1,352 hens bloodtested and will; use the eggs from the flock at the Granite Falls hatchery. t COMMISSIONER'S SALE By virtue of an order of the Su perior court of Cleveland county made in special proceedings entitled, "Joseph D.
