It show3 first the main plant food deficiences of the soils in the coastal plain, Pied mont and mountain sections follow- ed by specific recommendations as to the fertilizers to be applied on "these soils for growing the best yields of crops per acre. In the coastal plain area, recommendations are made for the kind and amounts of fertilizer t-) apply for cotton, to "bacco, corn, small grain, Irish potA toes sweet potatoes and legumes. Similar recommendations are made for the main crops of the mountain and piedmont sections.

TELEPHONE NO. 16 J REGARDING HER THERE FROM the angle of style, footweui grows in Importance all the time and fashionable feet are (jetting about as much attention as fashion able heads this fall. The. average woman must consider distinct types In purchasing her footwear shoes for the street, for sports and for after noon and evening wear, find place In the regulation outfit. Their varieties are Inexhaustible, but their outstand ing style features are easily summed up. To begin with, high shoes except for special uses are not in the run ning, or the walking either; oxfords, pumps and slippers fill the require ments of women today and for orj dlnary wear , have replaced other styles. Shoes, like all other apparel, grow more light In weight, more "ttn lshed" and subtle, and, of course, more good-looking. Overshoes, gaiters and spats are depended upon to de fend one against cold or wet and are more satisfactory than heavy shoes. Kid Is the favorite leatherMn fact It Is the foundation of the mode and many other leathers and shoe fab rics are combined with It, as patent leather, lizard skin and alligator. The shoes which evidently meet the ap proval of the lady pictured here are made of black kid with heels and sgtrap of patent leather. Styles for the street are very sim ple with pumps and oxfords to the fore along with strapped models. By way of garniture, buckles, small pearl buttons and endlessly varied straps are relied upon, supplemented by com binations of two colors In kid or two leathers. Black,-golden brown, "au tumn blond" and other brown thades are favorites. Much Ingenuity Is lav ished on the management of straps; The state of Washington has the only arc plant in America for fixing nitrogen.

' , Afternoon footwear takes on some what more elaboration In combina tions of colors and materials and the use of buckles or small ribbon bows. But the trend of style for daytime wear Is in the direction of simplicity. The story of evening footwear Is something else again It Is a fairy tale of fairy footwear in many colors and embellished In many different ways; Jeweled buckles and heels, painted butterflies, rosettes of tulle find a place on light-colored kid shoes. In blue, green red, orchid and leading all blond tones. Nevertheless, the conservative follower of fashion may content herself witha pair of plain kid slippers In blond or white, adding colored snumeled bliokles, tulle ro settes or rhinestone ornaments to match her costume.
